■Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining,
because visibility will be reduced, the windows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
●Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be
especially slippery.
●Refrain from high speeds when driv-
ing on an expressway in the rain, because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road sur-
face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
■Engine speed while driving (vehi-cles with a Multidrive)
In the following conditions, the engine speed may become high while driving. This is due to automatic up-shifting con-
trol or down-shifting implementation to meet driving conditions. It does not indi-cate sudden acceleration.

■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.454)
●Increase the air pressure of the trailer tires in accordance with the total
trailer weight and according to the val- ues recommended by the manufac-turer of your trailer.
■Trailer lights
Please consult any authorized Toyota 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 comply with
your state’s laws when installing trailer lights.
■Break-in schedule
Toyota recommends that vehicles fitted with new power train components should not be used for towing trailers for
the first 800 km (500 miles).
■Safety checks before towing
●Check that the maximum load limit for
the towing hitch/bracket hitch ball is not exceeded. Bear in mind that the coupling weight of the trailer will add
to the load exerted on the vehicle. Also make sure that you will not be towing a load that exceeds the maxi-
mum permissible axle capacity.
●Ensure that the trailer load is secure.
●Supplementary outside rear view mir- rors 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 bur- den placed on the vehicle compared to normal driving.
●Retighten all bolts securing the hitch-ing ball and bracket after towing for
approximately 1000 km (600 miles).
■If trailer sway occurs
One or more factors (crosswinds, pass- ing vehicles, rough roads, etc.) can
adversely affect handling of your vehicle and trailer, causing instability.
●If trailer swaying occurs:• Firmly grip the steering wheel. Steer straight ahead.
Do not try to control trailer swaying by turning the steering wheel.• Begin releasing the accelerator pedal
immediately but very gradually to reduce speed.
Do not increase speed. Do not apply
vehicle brakes.
170
CV Owner's Manual_Europe_M52N20_en
4-1. Before driving
If you make no extreme correction with
the steering or brakes, your vehicle and
trailer should stabilize (if enabled, Trailer
Sway Control can also help to stabilize
the vehicle and trailer.).
●After the trailer swaying has stopped: • Stop in a safe place. Get all occupants out of the vehicle.
• Check the tires of the vehicle and the trailer.• Check the load in the trailer.
Make sure the load has not shifted. Make sure the tongue weight is appro-priate, if possible.
• Check the load in the vehicle. Make sure the vehicle is not over-loaded after occupants get in.
If you cannot find any problems, the
speed at which trailer swaying occurred
is beyond the limit of your particular
vehicle-trailer combination. Drive at a
lower speed to prevent instability.
Remember that swaying of the towing
vehicle-trailer increases as speed
increases.
Your vehicle will handle differently
when towing a trailer. In order to
avoid accident, death or serious
injury, keep the following in mind
when towing:
■Checking connections
between trailer and lights
Stop the vehicle and check the
operation of the connection
between the trailer and lights after
driving for a brief period as well as
before starting off.
■Practicing driving with a cou-
pled trailer
Get the feel for turning, stopping
and reversing with the trailer
coupled by practicing in an area
with no or light traffic.
When reversing with a coupled
trailer, hold the section of the
steering wheel nearest to you
and rotate clockwise to turn the
trailer left or counterclockwise to
turn it right. Always rotate a little
at a time to prevent steering
error. Have someone guide you
when reversing to lessen the risk
of an accident.
■Increasing vehicle-to-vehicle
distance
At a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph), the
distance to the vehicle running
ahead of you should be equivalent
to or greater than the combined
length of your vehicle and trailer.
Avoid sudden braking that may
cause skidding. Otherwise, the
vehicle may spin out of control. This
is especially true when driving on
wet or slippery road surfaces.
NOTICE
■When the rear bumper strength- ening material is aluminum
Ensure the steel bracket part does not
come directly in contact with that area.When steel and aluminum come into
contact, there is a reaction similar to corrosion, which will weaken the sec-tion concerned and may result in
damage. Apply a rust inhibitor to parts that will come in contact when attach-ing a steel bracket.

WARNING
■When the vehicle is on a steep
incline
Take care when using the brake hold system on a steep incline, exercise
caution. The brake hold function may not hold brakes in such situations.Also, the system may not activate
depending on the angle of the slope.
■When stopped on a slippery road
The system cannot stop the vehicle when the gripping ability of the tires has been exceeded. Do not use the
system when stopped on a slippery road.
NOTICE
■When parking the vehicle
The brake hold system is not designed for use when parking the
vehicle for a long period of time. Turn- ing the engine switch off while the
system is holding the brake may release the brake, which would cause the vehicle to move. When operating
the engine switch, depress the brake pedal, shift the shift lever to P and set the parking brake.

WARNING
●In some situations, while the pre- collision braking function is operat-
ing, operation of the function may be canceled if the accelerator pedal is depressed strongly or the steer-
ing wheel is turned and the system determines that the driver is taking evasive action.
●If the brake pedal is being depressed, the system may deter-
mine that the driver is taking eva- sive action and possibly delay the operation timing of the pre-collision
braking function.
■Emergency steering assist (for
region A)
●As emergency steering assist oper- ation will be canceled when the sys-
tem determines that lane departure prevention function has been com-pleted.
●Emergency steering assist may not operate or may be cancel in the fol-
lowing cases as the system may determine the driver is taking actions.
• If the accelerator pedal is being depressed strongly, the steering
wheel is being operated sharply, the brake pedal is being depressed or the turn signal lever is being
operated. In this case, the system may determine that the driver is tak-ing evasive action and the emer-
gency steering assist may not operate.
• In some situations, while the emer- gency steering assist is operating, operation of the function may be
canceled if the accelerator pedal is depressed strongly, the steering wheel is operated sharply or the
brake pedal is being depressed and the system determines that the driver is taking evasive action.
• When the emergency steering assist is operating, if the steering wheel is held firmly or is operated in
the opposite direction to that which the system is generating torque, the function may be canceled.
■When to disable the pre-colli-sion system
In the following situations, disable the system, as it may not operate prop-erly, possibly leading to an accident
resulting in death or serious injury:
●When the vehicle is being towed
●When your vehicle is towing another vehicle
●When transporting the vehicle via truck, boat, train or similar means of
transportation
●When the vehicle is raised on a lift
with the engine running and the tires are allowed to rotate freely
●When inspecting the vehicle using a drum tester such as a chassis dynamometer or speedometer tes-
ter, or when using an on vehicle wheel balancer
●When a strong impact is applied to the front bumper or front grille, due to an accident or other reasons
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the
vehicle has been in an accident or is malfunctioning
●When the vehicle is driven in a sporty manner or off-road
●When the tires are not properly inflated
●When the tires are very worn
●When tires of a size other than
specified are installed
●When tire chains are installed
