C-HR_HV_OM_Europe_OM10720E
■Information tag (manufacturer’s label)
Gross vehicle mass
The combined weight of the driver, passengers, luggage, towing hitch,
total curb mass and drawbar load should not exceed the gross ve hicle
mass by more than 100 kg (220.5 lb.). Exceeding this weight is danger-
ous.
Maximum permissible rear axle capacity
The weight borne by the rear axle should not exceed the maximum per-
missible rear axle capacity by 15% or more. Exceeding this weig ht is
dangerous.
The values for towing capacity were derived from testing conduc ted at
sea level. Take note that engine output and towing capacity wil l be
reduced at high altitudes.
Ty pe AType B
WARNING
■ When the gross vehicle mass or maximum permissible axle capacity is
exceeded
Failing to observe this precaution may lead to an accident caus ing death or
serious injury.
● Add an additional 20.0 kPa (0.2 kgf/cm2 or bar, 3 psi) to the recommended
tire inflation pressure value. ( P. 776)
● Do not exceed the established speed limit for towing a trailer in built-up
areas or 100 km/h (62 mph), whichever is the lower.
3004-1. Before driving
C-HR_HV_OM_Europe_OM10720E
■Tire information
● Increase the tire inflation pressure to 20.0 kPa (0.2 kgf/cm2 or bar, 3 psi)
greater than the recommended value when towing. ( P. 776)
● Increase the air pressure of the trailer tires in accordance with the total
trailer weight and according to the values recommended by the m anufac-
turer of your trailer.
■ Trailer lights
Please consult at any authorized retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer when installing trailer lights, as incorrect installation may
cause damage to the vehicle’s lights. Please take care to compl y with your
state’s laws when installing trailer lights.
■ Break-in schedule
Toyota recommends that vehicles fitted with new power train com ponents
should not be used for towing trailers for the first 800 km (50 0 miles).
■ Safety checks before towing
● Check that the maximum load limit for the towing hitch/bracket and hitch ball
is not exceeded. Bear in mind that the coupling weight of the t railer will add
to the load exerted on the vehicle. Also make sure that the tot al load exerted
on the vehicle is within the range of the weight limits. ( P. 297)
● Ensure that the trailer load is secure.
● Supplementary outside rear view mirrors should be added to the vehicle if
the traffic behind cannot be clearly seen with standard mirrors . Adjust the
extending arms of these mirrors on both sides of the vehicle so that they
always provide maximum visibility of the road behind.
■ Maintenance
● Maintenance must be performed more frequently when using the vehicle for
towing due to the greater weight burden placed on the vehicle c ompared to
normal driving.
● Retighten all bolts securing the hitching ball and bracket after towing for
approximately 1000 km (600 miles).

● For region A: In addition to the above, in some situations, such as the fol-
lowing, the emergency steering assist may not operate.
• For region A: When the white (yellow) lane lines are difficult to see, such
as when they are faint, diverging/merging, or a shadow is cast upon them
• For region A: When the lane is wider or narrower than normal
• For region A: When there is a light and dark pattern on the ro ad surface,
such as due to road repairs
• For region A: When a pedestrian is detected near the centerlin e of the
vehicle
• For region A: When the target is too close
• For region A: When there is insufficient safe or unobstructed space for
the vehicle to be steered into
• For region A: If oncoming vehicle is present
• For region A: If VSC function is operating
● In some situations such as the following, sufficient braking force or steering
force (for region A) may not be obtained, preventing the system from per-
forming properly:
• If the braking functions cannot operate to their full extent, such as when
the brake parts are extremely cold, extremely hot, or wet
• If the vehicle is not properly maintained (brakes or tires are excessively
worn, improper tire inflation pressure, etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven on a gravel road or other sli ppery sur-
face
• When the road surface has deep wheel tracks
• When driving on a hill road
• When driving on a road that has inclines to the left or right
■ If VSC is disabled
● If VSC is disabled (P. 535), the pre-collision brake assist and pre-collision
braking functions are also disabled.
● The PCS warning light will turn on and “VSC Turned Off. Pre-Collision Brake
System Unavailable.” will be displayed on the multi-information display.
