(orange)/(green)"Hold the wheel"
– If, while correcting the trajectory, the system detects that the driver has not held the steering wheel for a few seconds, it interrupts the correction and returns control to the driver.– If, while correcting the trajectory, the system determines
that the correction will not be enough and that a solid line will be crossed (orange line): the driver is warned that they must provide additional trajectory adjustment.The duration of audible warnings will increase if multiple corrections are performed in quick succession. The warning will become continuous, persisting until the driver responds.This message may also be displayed if you have your hands on the steering wheel.
Operating limits
The system goes into standby automatically in the following cases:– VSC deactivated or operation triggered.– Speed below 70 km/h (43 mph) or greater than 180 km/h (112 mph).– Electrical connection of a trailer.– Use of the "space-saver" spare wheel detected (as detection is not immediate, deactivation of the system is recommended).– Dynamic driving style detected, pressure on the brake or accelerator pedal.
– Driving over lane markings.– Activation of the direction indicators.– Crossing the inside line on a bend.– Driving in a tight bend.– Inactivity by the driver detected during correction.
NOTIC E

Towing device
NOTIC E
Depending on version, the vehicle is fitted with the necessary equipment to allow a towing device to be installed.To install a towing device, contact a Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Load distribution► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance. The maximum towed load
must be reduced by 10 % for every 1,000 metres (3,280 ft) of altitude.
NOTIC E
Use towing devices and their unmodified harnesses approved by TOYOTA. It is recommended that the installation be performed by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.If the towing device is not fitted by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer, it must still be fitted in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.Certain driving assistance or manoeuvring assistance functions are automatically disabled if an approved towbar is used.For more information about driving with a towing device fitted to a trailer and associated with the Trailer stability assist (TSA), refer to the corresponding section.

Overload indicator
The overload indicator is a driving aid and informs you that the maximum authorised weight has been exceeded; this may be either the gross vehicle weight (GVW) or the maximum authorised weight on either axle (front and rear) (GAWR).
WARNI NG
The indicator does not relieve the user from their responsibility.
NOTIC E
Even if you correctly measure the weight of the vehicle's load, any factor that may vary this weight (driver/additional passengers seated or taking on additional fuel) after the measurement may put the vehicle into the overload condition.
WARNI NG
The load includes the weight of the items stored in the loading area (including any fittings such as shelves), but also the weight of all persons on board the vehicle, the amount of fuel and various equipment fitted on the vehicle.For optimal performance, the vehicle must be parked and loaded on level ground (avoid the following conditions: parking on a slope or straddling a pavement).
