On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety conditions allow, make several light brake applications to dry the brake discs and pads.If in doubt about the state of your vehicle, contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
In case of towing
WARNI NG
Driving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and requires extra care from the driver.
NOTIC E
Respect the maximum towable weights.At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 10% per 1,000 metres (3,280 ft) of altitude; the density of the air decreases with altitude and the performance of the engine reduces.
WARNI NG
New vehicle: do not pull a trailer before having driven at least 1,000 kilometres (620 miles).
NOTIC E
If the outside temperature is high, let the engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight (at the point where it joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
NOTIC E
If a genuine TOYOTA towing device is used, the rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically to avoid the audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill increases the temperature of the coolant. The maximum towable load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The cooling capacity of the fan does not increase with engine speed.► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed, so as to limit the heating-up.In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.If this warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer. To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind the increased susceptibility to the wind that the vehicle will have.

In the case of suggested maximum speeds, the first time the vehicle exceeds the suggested speed by more than 5 km/h (3 mph) (e.g. 95 km/h (59 mph)), the speed is displayed flashing for 10 seconds.
Operating limits
The system does not take account of reduced speed limits, especially those imposed in the following cases:– atmospheric pollution,– when towing,– driving with a space-saver type spare wheel or snow chains fitted,– Tyre repaired using the temporary puncture repair kit,– young drivers.It is possible for the system to not display the speed limit if it does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset period and in the following situations:– road signs that are obstructed, do not comply with the standard, are damaged or distorted,– obsolete or incorrect maps.
Recommendation

In addition to Speed Limit Recognition and Recommendation, the driver can select the speed displayed as a speed setting for the speed limiter or cruise control using the speed limiter or cruise control memorisation button.
NOTIC E
For more information on the Speed limiter, Cruise control or Adaptive cruise control, refer to the corresponding sections.

Temporarily exceeding the
speed setting
► Press the accelerator pedal down fully.

The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily and the displayed speed setting flashes.Release the accelerator pedal to return to below the programmed speed.When the limit speed is exceeded but this is not due to action by the driver (in case of a steep slope, for example), an audible signal triggers immediately.
WARNI NG
On a steep descent or in the event of sharp acceleration, the speed limiter will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the speed setting.Brake if necessary to control the speed of your vehicle.


Once the speed of the vehicle returns to the programmed setting, the speed limiter functions again: the display of the speed setting becomes fixed again.
Switching off
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the "0" position: the display of information on the speed limiter disappears.
Malfunction

Dashes are displayed (flashing, initially, then fixed) in the event of a speed limiter malfunction.Have the system checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Cruise control - particular
recommendations
WARNI NG
For the safety of everyone, only use the cruise control where the driving conditions allow running at a constant speed and keeping an adequate safety distance.
Remain vigilant when the cruise control is activated. If you hold one of the speed setting modification buttons, a very rapid change in the speed of your vehicle may occur.When descending a steep hill, the cruise control system cannot prevent the vehicle from exceeding the set speed. Brake if necessary to control the speed of your vehicle.On steep climbs or when towing, the set speed may not be reached or maintained.
NOTIC E
Exceeding the programmed speed settingYou can temporarily exceed the speed setting by pressing the accelerator pedal (the programmed speed flashes).To return to the speed setting, release the accelerator pedal (when the set speed is reached again, the displayed speed stops flashing).
