WARNING
■ General precautions while driving
Driving under the  influence:  Never drive  your vehicle when  unde r  the  influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi-
cle.  Alcohol  and  certain  drugs  delay  reaction  time,  impair  judg ment  and
reduce  coordination,  which  could  lead  to  an  accident  that  could   result  in
death or serious injury.
Defensive  driving: Always  drive  defensively. Anticipate  mistake s  that  other
drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid acciden ts.
Driver  distraction:  Always  give  your  full  attention  to  driving.  Anything  that
distracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a  cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serio us injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regar ding children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow  children to
have or use the key.
Children  may  be  able  to  start  the  vehicle  or  shift  the  vehicle  into  neutral.
There is also a  danger that  children  may  injure  themselves  by p laying with
the  windows,  or  other  features  of  the  vehicle.  In  addition,  hea t  build-up  or
extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to  children. 

3004-5. Using the driving support systems
C-HR_OM_USA_OM10684U
Driving assist systems
◆ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenl y,
or if the brakes are applied while  driving on a slippery road surface
◆Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake p edal
is depressed when the system de tects a panic stop situation
◆VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps  the  driver  to  control  skidding  when  swerving  suddenly  or
turning on slippery road surfaces
◆Enhanced VSC (Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control)
Provides cooperative control  of the ABS, TRAC, VSC and EPS.
Helps  to  maintain  directional  stability  when  swerving  on  slippe ry
road surfaces by controlling steering performance
◆TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps  to  maintain  drive  power  and  prevent  the  drive  wheels  from
spinning when starting the vehicl e or accelerating on slippery roads
◆Active Cornering Assist (ACA)
Helps  to  prevent  the  vehicle  from  drifting  to  the  outer  side  by  per-
forming  inner  wheel  brake  control  when  attempting  to  accelerate
while turning.
To  keep  driving  safety  and  perf ormance,  the  following  systems
operate  automatically  in  respon se  to  various  driving  situations.
Be  aware,  however,  that  these  systems  are  supplementary  and
should  not  be  relied  upon  too  heav ily  when  operating  the  vehi-
cle.

C-HR_OM_USA_OM10684U
This  information  has  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  regulations
issued  by  the  National  Highway  Tr affic  Safety  Administration  of the
U.S. Department of Transportation.
It  provides  the  purchasers  and/or   prospective  purchasers  of  Toyota
vehicles with info rmation on uniform ti re quality grading.
Your  Toyota  dealer  will  help  answer  any  questions  you  may  have  as
you read this information.
■DOT quality grades
All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal Safety Requ ire-
ments  in  addition  to  these  grades.  Quality  grades  can  be  found
where  applicable  on  the  tire  sidewall  between  tread  shoulder  an d
maximum section width.
For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
■Treadwear
The  treadwear  grade  is  a  comparative  rating  based  on  the  wear
rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a s peci-
fied government t est course.
For example, a tire  graded 150 would  wear one and a  half (1  - 1 /2)
times as well on the governmen t course as a tire graded 100.
The  relative  performance  of  tires  depends  upon  the  actual  condi -
tions of their use. Performance ma y differ significantly from the norm
due to variations in driving habits, service practices and diff erences
in road characteristics and climate.
■Traction AA, A, B, C
The  traction  grades,  from  highest  to  lowest,  are  AA,  A,  B  and  C ,
and  they  represent  the  tire’s  ability  to  stop  on  wet  pavement  a s
measured under controlled conditions on specified government te st
surfaces of asphalt and concrete.
A tire marked C may have p oor traction performance.
Warning: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on b raking
(straight  ahead)  traction  tests and  does  not  include  cornering  (turn-
ing) traction.
