Recommendations on
loading

WARNI NG
The weight of the load must comply with the Gross Train Weight (GTW).For more information on Engine technical data and towed loads, refer to the corresponding section.
WARNI NG
If you are using a carrying system (roof bars/roof rack), comply with the maximum loads associated with this system.For more information on Roof bars/Roof rack, refer to the corresponding section.
WARNI NG
Make sure that the size, shape and volume of the loads carried are compatible with the highway code and safety regulations and do not impair the driver’s field of vision.

74
WARNI NG
The load must be evenly distributed in the loading area so as not to interfere with driving the vehicle.Place the load close to the side panels, or even push it against the side panels between the wheel arches.However, it is recommended that heavy objects are placed as close to the cab as possible as a precaution in case of sharp braking.
WARNI NG
Firmly secure all parts of the load using the stowing rings on the floor of the loading area.For more information on the Interior fittings and in particular on the stowing rings, refer to the corresponding section.
WARNI NG
To avoid the risk of injury or accident, the load must be made stable so that it cannot slide, tip over, fall or be thrown. To do this, use only retaining straps that conform to current standards (DIN for example).For more information on putting straps in place, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.To prevent the load sliding, there must not be any empty space between the load and the panels of the vehicle.As well as the straps, optimise the stability of the load with stable handling equipment (wedges, rigid blocks of wood or padding).
WARNI NG
When washing your vehicle, never clean the inside directly using a water jet.

Heating and Ventilation
Advice
NOTIC E
Using the ventilation and air conditioning system► To ensure that air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the air outlets and the air extractor in the boot free from obstructions.► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located on the dashboard; this sensor is used to regulate the automatic air conditioning system.► Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to keep it in perfect working order.► If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power, enhancing the towing capacity.
WARNI NG
Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high after the vehicle has stood for a long time in the sunshine, air the passenger compartment for a few moments.Put the air flow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment.
NOTIC E
Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly normal.

Air flow
► Turn the thumbwheel 2 to obtain a comfortable air flow.
NOTIC E
If you set the air flow thumbwheel to the minimum position (off), the temperature in the vehicle will no longer be controlled. A slight air flow can still be felt however,
resulting from the forward movement of the vehicle.
Temperature
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 from "LO" (cold) to "HI" (hot) to adjust the temperature to your requirements.
NOTIC E
A setting of around 21 provides optimum comfort. Depending on your requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is normal.In addition, we recommend avoiding left/right setting differences of more than 3.
NOTIC E
On entering the vehicle, if the interior temperature is significantly colder or warmer than the comfort value setting, there is no need to alter the value displayed in order to reach the required level of comfort. The system compensates automatically and corrects the temperature difference as quickly as possible.
NOTIC E
For maximum cooling or heating of the passenger compartment, it is possible to exceed the minimum value 14 or the maximum value 28.► Turn the thumbwheel 1 to the left until "LO" or to the right until "HI".
Air distribution
Windscreen and side windows (3a).
Central and side air vents (3b).
Footwells (3c).
The air distribution can be adapted by combining the corresponding buttons.
Air conditioning
With the engine running, the air conditioning is designed to operate effectively in all seasons, with the windows closed.It enables you to:– lower the temperature in summer,– enhance the effectiveness of the demisting function in winter, above 3°C.
On/Off
► Press button 5 to activate/deactivate the air conditioning system.When the air conditioning is in operation, to cool the air more quickly, you can use interior air recirculation for a few moments by pressing button 4. Then restore the intake of exterior air.
NOTIC E
The air conditioning does not operate when the air flow adjustment is set to off.
