Make sure that all tires are of the same size, brand, tread pat tern and
total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to
the specified tire pressure level.

not function correctly if different tires are fitted on the veh icle.
Contact your Toyota dealer for further information when replaci ng tires
or wheels.

The Trailer Sway Control system is not able to reduce trailer sway in all situ-
ations. Depending on many factors such as the conditions of the vehicle,
trailer, road surface, and driving environment, the Trailer Swa y Control sys-

Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may cause death or serious injury.
● Firmly grip the steering wheel. Steer straight ahead.
Do not try to control trailer swaying by turning the steering w heel.
● Begin releasing the accelerator pedal immediately but very grad ually to
reduce speed.
Do not increase speed. Do not apply vehicle brakes.
If you make no extreme correction with the steering or brakes, your vehicle
and trailer should stabilize. ( P. 207)
