forming the following procedure.
1Stop the vehicle on a level sur-
face.
2 Press the “ODO TRIP” switch to
change the odometer and trip
meter display to odometer.
3 Turn the engine switch off.
4 While pressing and holding the
“ODO TRIP” switch, turn the
engine switch to ON.
5 Continue to hold the “ODO TRIP”
switch for approximately 5 sec-
onds, and then release it once
the odometer begins flashing.
Updating is complete once the
odometer flashes for approximately
5 seconds and th en the display
returns to normal.
■Outside temperature display
●In the following si tuations, the cor-
rect outside tempe rature may not
be displayed, or the display may
take longer than normal to
change.
• When stopped, or driving at low
speeds (less than 12 mph [20
km/h])
• When the outside temperature
has changed suddenly (at the
entrance/exit of a garage, tunnel,
etc.)
●When “--” or “E” is displayed, the
system may be malfunctioning.
Take your vehicle to your Toyota
dealer.
●Displays the outside temperature
within the range of -40°F (-40°C)
to 122°F (50°C).
●When the outside temperature is
approximately 37°F (3°C) or
lower, the indicator will flash
for approximately 10 seconds,
then stay on.

WARNING
■The information display at
low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to
warm up before using the liquid
crystal information display. At
extremely low temperatures, the
display monitor may respond
slowly, and display changes may
be delayed.
For example, there is a lag
between the driver’s shifting and
the new gear number appearing
on the display. This lag could
cause the driver to downshift
again, causing rapid and exces-
sive engine braking and possibly
an accident resulting in death or
injury.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the
engine and its components
●Do not let the indicator needle
of the tachometer enter the red
zone, which indicates the maxi-
mum engine speed.
●The engine may be overheating
if the engine coolant tempera-
ture gauge is in the red zone
(“H”). In this case, immediately
stop the vehicle in a safe place,
and check the engine after it
has cooled completely.

■Distance to empty
●This distance is computed based
on your averag e fuel consump-
tion. As a result, the actual dis-
tance that can be driven may
differ from tha t displayed.
●When only a small amount of fuel
is added to the tank, the display
may not be updated. When refuel-
ing, turn the engine switch off. If
the vehicle is refueled without
turning the engi ne switch off, the
display may not be updated.
●When “Refuel” is displayed, the
remaining fuel amount is low and
the distance that can be driven
with the remaining fuel cannot be
calculated. Refuel immediately.
■Manually updating the fuel
gauge and possible driving
range
The fuel gauge and the possible
driving range are linked. If the dis-
plays of the fuel gauge and possible
driving range do not update after
adding a small amount of fuel, the
displays can be u pdated by per-
forming the following procedure.
1 Stop the vehicle on a level sur-
face.
2 Press the “ODO TRIP” switch to
change the odometer and trip
meter display to odometer.
3 Turn the engine switch off. 4
While pressing and holding the
“ODO TRIP” switch, turn the

5 Continue to hold the “ODO TRIP”
switch for appro ximately 5 sec-
onds, and then release it once

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 S
mode, the transmission shift
range position must be in 6 or
lower.
 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
or steep grade. If the engine
coolant temperature gauge
indicates overheating, imme-
diately turn off the air condi-
tioning (if in use), pull your
vehicle off the road and stop
in a safe spot. ( P.480)
 Always place wheel blocks
under both the vehicle’s and
the trailer’s wheels when
parking. Apply the parking
brake firmly, and put the
transmission in P. Avoid park-
ing on a slope, but if unavoid-
able, do so only after
performing the following:
1 Apply the brakes and keep
them applied.
2 Have someone place wheel
blocks under both the vehi-
cle’s and trailer’s wheels.
