WARNING
■
When using the rear view monitor system
Observe the following precautions to avoid an accident that cou ld result in
death or serious injuries.
● The rear view monitor system is a supplement device intended to assist
back up. Never depend solely on the rear view monitor system wh en
reversing. Always check visually and with the mirrors to confir m your
intended path is clear. Use caution just as you would when back ing up any
vehicle.
● The camera has a special lens. Depicted distances between objec ts and
flat surfaces differ from actual distances.
● Always check the vehicle surrounding area, because the guide li nes are
ancillary lines.
● The guide lines are ancillary lines and do not change even if t he steering
wheel is turned.
● Do not use the system if the trunk is open.
■ Conditions which may affect t he rear view monitor system
● If the back of the vehicle has been hit, the camera’s position and mounting
angle may have changed. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
● When the outside temperature is low, the displayed image may be come
faint or dark, and moving images will be distorted, or not entirely visible.
● Rapid temperature changes, such as when hot water is poured on the
vehicle in cold weather, may cause the system to function abnor mally.
● If the camera lens is dirty, it cannot transmit a clear image. Rinse with
water and wipe with a soft cloth. If the camera lens is extreme ly dirty, wash
with a mild cleanser and rinse.
● If the tire size is changed, the area displayed on the screen may change.
● Do not do the following. Doing so may scratch the lens, which may have a
negative effect on the image displayed on the screen.
• Rub the camera lens hard
• Use a hard brush to scrub the camera lens
• Scrub the lens with abrasive cleaners

2-5. Driving information
Cargo and luggage
Capacity and distributionCargo capacity depends on the to tal weight of the occupants.
(Cargo capacity) = (Tot al load capacity) - (Total weight of occ upants)
Steps for Determini ng Correct Load Limit 
(1)Locate the statement “The co mbined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle's
placard.
(2)Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers t hat
will be riding in your vehicle.
(3)Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers fr om
XXX kg or XXX lbs.
(4)The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and lug- gage load capacity.
For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will
be five 150 lb passengers in your vehicle, the amount of availa ble
cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5  150) =
650 lbs.)
(5)Determine the combined wei ght of luggage and cargo being
loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the av ail-
able cargo and luggage load ca pacity calculated in Step 4.
Take notice of the following information about storage precau-
tions, cargo capacity and load:
●Stow cargo and luggage in t he trunk whenever possible.
● Be sure all items are secured in place.
● To maintain vehicle balance while driving, position luggage
evenly within the luggage compartment.
● For better fuel economy, do no t carry unnecessary weight.

258 2-5. Driving information
As shown in the example above, if the number of occupants
increases, the cargo and luggage load will be reduced by an amount
that equals the increased weig ht due to the additional occupant s. In
other words, if an increase in t he number of occupants causes a n
excess of the total load capacity (combined weight of occupants plus
cargo and luggage load), you must reduce the cargo and luggage on
your vehicle.
WARNING
■Things that must not be carried in the trunk
The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the trunk:
●Receptacles containing gasoline
●Aerosol cans

When driving
WARNING
■Storage precautions
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result i
n death or serious injury.
●Stow cargo and luggage in the trunk whenever possible.
●To prevent cargo and luggage from sliding forward during brakin g, do
not stack anything in the enlarged trunk. Keep cargo and luggag e low,
as close to the floor as possible.
●When you fold down the rear seats, long items should not be pla ced
directly behind the front seats.
●Never allow anyone to ride in the enlarged trunk. It is not des igned for
passengers. They should ride in their seats with their seat belts prop-
erly fastened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer d eath or
serious bodily injury, in the event of sudden braking, sudden s werving
or an accident.
●Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations as the
item may get under the clutch, brake or accelerator pedal and p revent
the pedals from being depressed properly, block the driver’s vi sion, or
hit the driver or passengers, causing an accident:
• At the feet of the driver
• On the front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• On the package tray
• On the instrument panel
• On the dashboard
●Secure all items in the occupant compartment, as they may shift and
injure someone during sudden braking, sudden swerving or an acc i-
dent.
■Capacity and distribution
●Do not exceed the maximum axle weight rating or the total vehic le
weight rating.
●Even if the total load of occupant's weight and the cargo load is less
than the total load capacity, do not apply the load unevenly. I mproper
loading may cause deterioration of steering or braking control which
may cause death or serious injury.

tions:
(When the condit ion becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
●If tires not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and tra nsmit-
ters are used.
●If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmit ters is
not registered in the tire pressure warning computer.
●If the tire inflation pressure is 55 psi (380 kPa, 3.87 kgf/cm2 or bar) or
higher.
The tire pressure warning system may be disabled in the followi ng condi-
tions:
(When the condit ion becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
●If electronic devices or facilities using similar radio wave fr equencies
are nearby.
●If a radio set at similar frequen cies is in use in the vehicle.
●If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is install ed.
●If there is a lot of snow or ice on the vehicle, in particular around the
