Adjustment procedure
WARNING
■When adjusting the seat posi-
tion
●Take care when adjusting the
seat position to ensure that
other passengers are not
injured by the moving seat.
●Do not put your hands under the
seat or near the moving parts to
avoid injury.
Fingers or hands may become
jammed in the seat mechanism.
●Make sure to leave enough
space around the feet so they
do not get stuck.
■Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap belt during a collision, do
not recline the se at more than
necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap
belt may slide past the hips and
apply restraint for ces directly to
the abdomen, or your neck may
contact the shoulder belt, increas-
ing the risk of death or serious
injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made
while driving as the seat may
unexpectedly move and cause
the driver to lose control of the
vehicle.

■Roof rack (if equipped)Roof rails
Roof rackWARNING
●Never allow anyone to ride in
the rear deck. It is not designed
for passengers. They should
ride in their seats with their seat
belts properly fastened. Other-
wise, they are much more likely
to suffer death or serious bodily
injury, in the event of sudden
braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.
■Capacity and distribution
●Do not exceed the maximum
axle weight rating or the total
vehicle weight rating.
●Even if the tota l 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.
Roof luggage carrier
WARNING
■When loading cargo on the
roof luggage carrier
Observe the following precau-
tions:
●Vehicles with cross bars: Place
the cargo so that its weight is
distributed even ly between the
cross bars.
●Vehicles with roof rack: Place
the cargo so that its weight is
distributed evenly on the cross
bars of the carrier.
●If loading long or wide cargo,
never exceed the vehicle overall
length or width. ( P.548)
●Before driving, m ake sure the
cargo is securely 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 result in death or
serious injury.

Driving
Practice turning, stopping and
reversing with the trailer
attached in an area away
from traffic until you become
accustomed to the feel of the
vehicle-trailer combination.
Reversing with a trailer
attached is difficult and
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 the
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 a 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 crosswinds, 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.
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 hybrid
system may overheat on hot
days (at temperatures over
85°F [30°C]) when driving up
a long or steep grade. If the

■Auto Trailer Detection (ATD)
Auto Trailer Detect ion (ATD) detects
if a trailer is attached by using the
Trailer Brake Controller (TBC) or the
Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) sensors.
●Trailers that use TBC can be
detected by using the 7-pin trailer
brake connectors.
●Other types of trailers can be
detected using the BSM sensors.
●When a trailer is detected via BSM
or TBC, RCTA function will be dis-
abled.
●As soon as the tra iler is detected,
the detectio n area will be
extended to a maximum length of
approximately 16 ft. (15 m) from
the rear bumper of the truck.
●If the trailer does not have a 7-pin
connector, or the 7-pin connector
is not engaged, the trailer is
detected via the BSM sensor. In
this case PKSB (i f equipped) and
Intuitive parking assist functions
will not be disabled.
●For trailer auto detection without
engagement of 7-pin connector,
the vehicle should be moving for-
ward at speed of above 0.6 mph
(1 km/h) for at least 10 seconds.
●ATD function is triggered at every
power switch on/off cycle or if the
vehicle is stopped in shift the shift
lever is in P or N for more than 90
seconds.
●Trailer detection vis BSM sensors
may be delayed if the vehicle is in
a crowded environment such as
busy parking lot, area surrounded
with trees (camping ground) or in
an environment with objects in the
immediate environment that pre-
vent sensors from sufficiently
detecting the trailer.
■Trailer Length Detection (TLD)
●Once a trailer is detected and if
the trailer length in the meter is
selected as “Auto”, the TLD func-
tion will estimate the trailer length
using the Blind Spot Monitor sen-
sors.
In order to estimate the trailer length
with TLD function and detection
area, make at least two 90 degree
turns.
If the trailer length is entered manu-
ally via multi-information display
input, the detection area is also
adjusted to exceed the length of the
trailer.
●Depending on some trailer types
and the dimensions of the trailer
TMW performance may be
degraded.
