Cargo capacity depends on the total weight of the occupants. 
(Cargo capacity) = (Total load capacity) — (Total weight of occ upants)
Steps for Determining  Correct Load Limit —
(1) Locate  the  statement  “The  co mbined  weight  of  occupants  and
cargo  should  never  exceed  XXX  kg  or  XXX  lbs.”  on  your  vehicle’s
placard. 
(2) Determine  the  combined  weight  of  the  driver  and  passengers  t hat
will be riding in your vehicle. 
(3) Subtract  the  combined  weight  of  the  driver  and  passengers  fr om
XXX kg or XXX lbs.
(4) The  resulting  figure  equals  the  available  amount  of  cargo  an d  lug-
gage load capacity. 
For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs. and there wil l be
five  150  lb  passengers  in  your  vehicle,  the  amount  of  available
cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400   750 (5150) =
650 lbs.) 
(5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loa ded
on  the  vehicle.  That  weight  may  n ot  safely  exceed the  available
cargo and luggage load capac ity calculated in Step 4. 
(6) If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your tra iler  will  be
transferred  to  your  vehicle.  Consult  this  manual  to  determine  h ow
this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of y our
vehicle.
(  P. 206)
Toyota  does  not  recommend  towing  a  trailer  with  your  vehicle.  Y our
vehicle is not desig ned for trailer towing.
Cargo and luggage
Take  notice  of  the  following  information  about  storage  precau-
tions, cargo capacity and load:
Capacity and distribution 

2064-1. Before driving
CAMRY_U
◆Total load capacity (vehicle capacity weight): P. 574
Total load capacity means the co mbined weight of occupants, cargo
and luggage. 
◆Seating capacity:  P.   5 7 5
Seating capacity means the max imum number of occupants whose
estimated average weight is 150 lb. (68 kg) per person. 
◆Towing capacity
Toyota does not recommend towing  a trailer with your vehicle. 
◆Cargo capacity
Cargo capacity may increase or decrease depending on the weight
and the number of occupants. 
■Total load capacity and seating capacity
These details are also described on the tire and loading inform ation label.
(  P. 487)
Vehicle load limits
Vehicle  load  limits  include  total  load  capacity,  seating  capaci t y,
towing capacity and cargo capacity. 
WARNING
■Overloading the vehicle
Do not overload the vehicle.
It  may  not  only  cause  damage  to  the  tires,  but  also  degrade  steering
and braking ability, resulting in an accident.

In the following situations the system may not be able to correctly detect the
surrounding  brightness  level.  This  may  cause  the  low  beams  to  r emain  on
or the high beams to flash or dazzle pedestrians or vehicles ah ead. In such
a case, it is necessary to manually switch between the high and  low beams.
• When  driving  in  inclement  weather  (heavy  rain,  snow,  fog,  sand storms,
etc.)
• When the windshield is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• When the windshield is cracked or damaged
• When the front camera is deformed or dirty
• When the temperature of the front camera is extremely high
• When  the  surrounding  brightness  level  is  equal  to  that  of  head lights,  tail
lights or fog lights
• When  headlights  or  tail  lights  of  vehicles  ahead  are  turned  off,  dirty,
changing color, or not aimed properly
• When the vehicle is hit by water, snow, dust, etc. from a prec eding  vehi-
cle
• When  driving  through  an  area  of  intermittently  changing  brightness  and darkness
• When  frequently  and  repeatedly  driving  ascending/descending  roads,  or
roads  with  rough,  bumpy  or  uneven  surfaces  (such  as  stone-paved
roads, gravel roads, etc.)
• When  frequently  and  repeatedly  taking  curves  or  driving  on  a  w inding
road
• When  there  is  a  highly  reflective  object  ahead  of  the  vehicle,  such  as  a sign or mirror
• When the back of a preceding vehicle is highly reflective, suc h as a con-
tainer on a truck
• When  the  vehicle's  headlights  are  damaged  or  dirty,  or  are  not  aimed
properly
• When the vehicle is listing or titling due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed,
etc.
• When  the  headlights  are  changed  between  the  high  beams  and  low beams repeatedly in an abnormal manner
• When the driver believes that the high beams may be flashing or dazzling pedestrians or other drivers
■ Temporarily lowering sensor sensitivity
The sensitivity of the sensor can be temporarily lowered.
Turn the engine switch off while the following conditions are m et.
• The headlight switch is in the   or   position.
• The headlight switch lever is in the original position.
Turn  the  engine  switch  to  the  “ON”  position  (vehicles  without  a  smart key
system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system).
Within 60 seconds after  , repeat pushing the headlight switch lever to the
high  beam  position  then  pulling  it  to  the  original  position  qui ckly  10  times,
then leave the lever in the original position.

When the sensor may not be correctly detect ing the vehicle ahead
In  the  case  of  the  following  and  depending  on  the  conditions,  o perate  the
brake  pedal  when  deceleration  of  the  system  is  insufficient  or  operate  the
accelerator pedal when acceleration is required.
As the sensor may not be able to correctly detect these types o f vehicles, the
approach warning ( P. 299) may not be activated.
● Vehicles that cut in suddenly
● Vehicles traveling at low speeds
● Vehicles that are not moving in the same lane
● Vehicles with small rear ends (trailers with no load on board,  etc.)
● Motorcycles traveling in the same lane
● When  water  or  snow  thrown  up  by  the  surrounding  vehicles  hinders  the
detecting of the sensor
●When  your  vehicle  is  pointing  upwards
(caused by a heavy load in the luggage
compartment, etc.)
● Preceding  vehicle  has  an  extremely
high ground clearance
