If the accelerator pedal is not depressed, such as when the vehicle is driven 
using cruise control (if equipped), the  driven distance is not included in the 
Eco Score. 
The Eco Score evaluation differs  depending on the driving conditions and 
environmental factors. The Eco Score may not be linked to fuel consumption. 
The Eco Score will not operate in the following conditions: 
● The vehicle speed is approximately 130 km/h (80 mph) or higher. 
● The shift lever is in a position other than D. (vehicles with automatic trans- 
mission) 
● Front-wheel drive control switch is in L4. (if equipped) 
● Downhill assist control system is operating. (if equipped) 
● The vehicle is in the power mode. (if equipped) 
■ Eco Saving 
Displays the fuel consumption comparison, the average fuel consumption 
after reset, and the cost of the consumed fuel. 
• The function can be reset by pressing   more than 1 second when the 
average fuel consumption after reset is displayed 
• Use the average fuel consumption as a reference 
Savings/fuel cost
Displays the possible savings if the fuel consumption comparison is set, 
and displays the actual fuel cost if the fuel consumption comparison is not
set. 
Use the displayed fuel cost and savings as a reference. Depending on refuel- 
ing methods, driving conditions and environmental factors, the displayed fuel
cost may differ from the actual fuel cost, and in some cases, the fuel cost and 
savings may not be linked to the Eco Score evaluation. 
■ Eco Saving setting 
The fuel price and fuel consumption comparison settings can be set in the 
settings display. Use the meter control switches to select   while the vehicle 
is stopped and press  , and select “Eco Saving” and press  . 
Fuel consumption comparison 
Displays the set fuel consumption that 
is compared with the actual fuel con- 
sumption. 
Average fuel consumption after reset
Displays the average fuel consumption 
since the function was reset.

Selecting “Update” on the “Past record” screen will update the past record 
data. 
Also, the average fuel consumption displayed in the multi-information display 
will be reset at the same time. 
■ Cruising range 
Displays the estimated maximum distance that can be driven with the quan- 
tity of fuel remaining. 
This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumption. As a 
result, the actual distance that can be driven may differ from that displayed.

Trailer towing (models for model code  
destination W)
◆Weight limits 
Check the allowable towing capacity, GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass), 
MPAC (Maximum Permissible Axle Capacity), and permissible 
drawbar load before towing. ( P. 663)
◆Towing hitch/bracket 
Toyota recommends the use of the Toyota hitch/bracket for your 
vehicle. Other products of a suitable nature and comparable quality 
may also be used.
: See “Checking your vehicle’s model” if you are not sure of which model your vehicle is. 
( P.  1 1 )
Your vehicle is designed primarily as a passenger-and-load-car- 
rying vehicle. Towing a trailer will have an adverse effect on han- 
dling, performance, braking, durability, and fuel consumption.
Your safety and satisfaction depend on the proper use of correct 
equipment and cautious driving habits. For your safety and the 
safety of others, do not overload the vehicle or trailer. 
To tow a trailer safely, use extreme care and drive the vehicle in 
accordance with the trailer’s characteristics and operating con- 
ditions. 
Toyota warranties do not apply to damage or malfunction 
caused by towing a trailer for commercial purposes. 
Ask your local authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized 
repairer, or any reliable repairer for further details before towing,
as there are additional legal requirements in some countries.

to select Eco drive mode.
The “ECO MODE” indicator light 
will come on. 
Press the switch again to cancel 
Eco drive mode. 
■Power mode

3724-5. Using the driving support systems
HILUX_OM_OM0K322E_(EE)
■Four-wheel drive usage frequency (vehicles with A.D.D.) 
You should drive in four-wheel drive for at least 16 km (10 miles) each month.  
This will assure that the front drive components are lubricated. 
■ Shifting between H2 and H4 
If you have trouble shifting in cold w eather, reduce your speed or stop the 
vehicle and reshift. 
■ Shifting to L4 (vehicles with VSC) 
VSC is automatically turned off. 
■ When driving on dry paved surface roads and expressway 
Use H2 position. If the vehicle is driven in H4 or L4 position for a long time, a 
warning buzzer sounds, and the four-wheel drive indicator light flashes rap- 
idly or a warning message is shown on the multi-information display. If the 
warning message is shown on the multi-information display, follow the mes-
sage. 
■ If “DIFFERENTIAL OIL TEMP HIGH SHIFT TO 2WD MODE COOLING TIME 
REQUIRED”/“Differential oil temp high Shift to 2WD mode Cooling time
required” is shown on the multi-info rmation display (vehicles with multi- 
information display) 
The differential oil temperature is too high.  
Turn the front-wheel drive control switch to H2, and wait until the warning 
message goes off.
WARNING
■ While driving 
● Never turn the front-wheel drive control switch from H2 to H4 if the wheels 
are slipping. Stop the slipping or spinning before shifting. 
● For normal driving on dry and hard surface roads, use H2 position. Driving 
on dry and hard surface roads in H4 or L4 position may cause drive com- 
ponent oil leakage, seizure, or other problems resulting in an accident.
Further, it may cause tire wear and increased fuel consumption. 
● Avoid turning suddenly in H4 or L4 position. If you do turn suddenly, the 
difference in turning speeds between the front and rear wheels may have
a similar effect to braking, thus making driving difficult.
