WARNING
●Even if the total load of occu-
pant’s weight and the cargo
load is less than the total load
capacity, do not apply the load
unevenly. Improper loading may
cause deteriorat ion of steering
or braking control which may
cause death or serious injury.
■When using a roof luggage
carrier (vehicles with roof
rails)
Observe the following precau-
tions:
●Place the cargo so that its
weight is distributed evenly
between the front and rear
axles.
●If loading long or wide cargo,
never exceed the vehicle overall
length or width. (
P.474)
●Before driving, make sure the
cargo is securel y fastened on
the roof luggage carrier.
●Loading cargo on the roof lug-
gage carrier will make the cen-
ter of gravity of the vehicle
higher. Avoid high speeds, sud-
den starts, sharp turns, sudden
braking or abrupt maneuvers,
otherwise it may result in loss of
control or vehicle rollover due to
failure to operate this vehicle
correctly and resu lt in death or
serious injury.
●If driving for a long distance, on
rough roads, or at high speeds,
stop the vehicle now and then
during the trip to make sure the
cargo remains in its place.
●Do not exceed 165 lb. (75 kg)
cargo weight on the roof lug-
gage carrier.
NOTICE
■When loading cargo
Be careful not to scratch the sur-
face of the moon roof or pan-
oramic moon roof.

1924-1. Before driving
Use the correct trailer ball for
your application.Trailer ball load rating
Matches or exceeds the gross
trailer weight rat ing of the trailer.
Ball diameter
Matches the size of the trailer cou-
pler. Most couplers are stamped
with the required tr ailer ball size.
Shank length
Protrudes beyond the bottom of the
lock washer and nut at least 2
threads.
Shank diameter
Matches the ball mount hole diame-
ter size.
Weight carrying ball position:
50.7 in. (1289 mm)
Use the wire harness stored in
the rear end under body.
Please consult your dealer
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 install-
ing trailer lights.
■Auto current cut-off function
In case of over current, the auto
cut-off function stops the power
flowing to the trailer lights to prevent
damage to the vehicle’s electrical
system.

1944-1. Before driving
requires practice. Grip the
bottom of the steering wheel
and move your hand to the
left to move the trailer to the
left. Move your hand to the
right to move the trailer to
right. (This is generally oppo-
site to reversing without a
trailer attached.) Avoid sharp
or prolonged turning. Have
someone guide you when
reversing to reduce the risk of
an accident.
 As stopping distance is
increased when towing a
trailer, vehicle-to vehicle dis-
tance should be increased.
For each 10 mph (16 km/h) of
speed, allow at least one
vehicle and trailer length.
 Avoid sudden braking as you
may skid, resulting in the
trailer jackknifing and a loss of
vehicle control. This is espe-
cially true on wet or slippery
surfaces.
 Avoid jerky starts or sudden
acceleration.
 Avoid jerky steering and
sharp turns, and slow down
before making turn.
 Note that when making a turn,
the trailer wheels will be
closer than the vehicle wheels
to the inside of the turn. Com-
pensate by making a wider
than normal turning radius.
 Slow down before making a turn, in cross winds, on wet or
slippery surfaces, etc.
Increasing vehicle speed can
destabilize the trailer.
 Take care when passing other
vehicles. Passing requires
considerable distance. After
passing a vehicle, do not for-
get the length of your trailer,
and be sure you have plenty
of room before changing
lanes.
 To maintain engine braking
efficiency and charging sys-
tem performance when using
engine braking, do not put the
transmission in D. If in the M
mode, the transmission shift
range position must be in 6 or
lower. ( P.201)
 Instability happens more fre-
quently when descending
steep or long downhill grades.
Before descending, slow
down and downshift. Do not
make sudden downshifts
while descending steep or
long downhill grades.
 Avoid holding the brake pedal
down too long or applying the
brakes too frequently. This
could cause the brakes to
overheat and result in
reduced braking efficiency.
 Due to the added load of the
trailer, your vehicle’s engine
may overheat on hot days (at
temperatures over 85°F
[30°C]) when driving up a long

• If the battery charge becomes low.
■When the hood is opened
●If the hood is opened while the
engine is stopped by the Stop &
Start system, the engine will stall
and will not be able to be restarted
by the automatic engine start
function. In this case, restart the
engine using the normal engine
starting procedure. ( P.197)
●If the hood is closed after the
engine is started with the hood
open, the Stop & Start system will
not operate. Close the hood, turn
the engine switch off, wait 30 sec-
onds or more, and then start the
engine.
■Air conditioning system opera-
tion while the engine is stopped
by the Stop & Start system
When the air conditioning is in auto-
matic mode and the engine is
stopped by the Stop & Start system,
the fan may operate at a low speed
in order to prevent the temperature
in the cabin fro m increasing or
decreasing or may be stopped.
To prioritize air conditioning system
performance when the vehicle is
stopped, disable the Stop & Start
system by pressing the Stop & Start
cancel switch.
●If the windshield is fogged up
Turn the windshield defogger on.
(  P.322)
If the windshield fogs up frequently,
press the Stop & Start cancel switch
to disable the Stop & Start system.
●If an odor is emitted from the air
conditioning system
Press the Stop & Start cancel switch
to deactivate the Stop & Start sys-
tem.
■Changing the idling stop time
with the air conditioning system
on
The length of time the Stop & Start
system will operate when the air
conditioning system is on can be
changed in of th e multi-informa-
tion display ( P.92, 102). (The
length of time the Stop & Start sys-
tem will operate when the air condi-
tioning system is off cannot be
changed.)

“Non-Dedicated Battery”
• A battery not designed for use with a Stop & Start system may
have been installed.
 Have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer.
“Battery Charging”
• The battery charge may be low.
 Stopping of the engine is tempo-
rarily prohibited to prioritize charging
of the battery. Afte r the engine runs
for a certain amount of time, the sys-
tem will be enabled.
• A refresh charge may be occur- ring
