When driving WARNING■ TRAC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while drivi ng on slip-
pery road surfaces, even if the TRAC system is operating.
Do not drive the vehicle in conditions where stability and powe r may be lost.
■ When the VSC and/or brake LSD function is activated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckl ess driving may
cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.
■ When the TRAC/VSC systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the r oad condi-
tions. As these are the systems to help ensure vehicle stability and driving
force, do not turn the TRAC/VSC systems off unless necessary.
■ Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size, brand, trea d pattern and
total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the
recommended tire inflation pressure level.

Hill-start assist control Hill-start assist control helps to maintain braking force to as sist
starting off forward while facing uphill or starting off backwa rd while
facing downhill. As hill-start assist control is initially disa bled,
enable the system to make it operable. The enabled/disabled set ting
will be maintained the next time the engine is started.
The hill-start assist control ON
indicator will be illuminated
when system is enabled and
flash while the system is oper-
ating.
■ Enabling hill-start assist control
Park your vehicle in a flat, safe location. Make sure that the parking brake is securely engaged.

When driving ■ Notes for hill-start assist control
● A slight jolt may be felt when starting off backward with the s hift lever in R
and then moving forward.
● If the braking power of hill-start assist control is insufficient, depress the
brake pedal.
● While the vehicle is stopped, make sure to depress the brake pe dal.
■ The system may be malfunctioning when
In the following situations, the system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
● The slip indicator is illuminated.
● The hill-start assist control ON indicator turns off and a buzz er sounds.
WARNING■ Hill-start assist control precautions
● Do not overly rely on hill-start assist control. Hill-start ass ist control may
not operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered wit h ice.
● Unlike the parking brake, hill-start assist control is not inte nded to hold the
vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to use
hill-start assist control to hold the vehicle on an incline, as doing so may
lead to an accident.
● Do not stop the engine while hill-start assist control is operating, as hill-
start assist control will stop operating, possibly leading to a n accident.

Cargo and luggage
Capacity and distribution
Cargo capacity depends on the to tal weight of the occupants.
(Cargo capacity) = (Tot al load capacity) - (Total weight of occ upants)
Steps for Determini ng 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 and 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 availa ble
cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5  150) =
650 lbs.)
(5)Determine the combined wei ght of luggage and cargo being
loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the av ail-
able cargo and luggage load ca pacity calculated in Step 4.Take notice of the following information about storage precau-
tions, cargo capacity and load:
● Stow cargo and luggage in t he trunk whenever possible.
● Be sure all items are secured in place.
● To maintain vehicle balance while driving, position luggage
evenly within the luggage compartment.
● For better fuel economy, do no t carry unnecessary weight.

When driving (6)If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your tra iler will be
transferred to your vehicle. Cons ult this manual to determine h ow
this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of y our
vehicle.
(  P. 458)Toyota does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. Y our
vehicle is not designed for trailer towing.
Calculation formula for your vehicle
Cargo capacity
Total load capacity (vehicle
capacity weight) (  P. 458)
When 2 people with the combined weight of A lb. (kg) are riding in
your vehicle, which has a total load capacity (vehicle capacity weight)
of B lb. (kg), the available amount of cargo and luggage load c apacity
will be C lb. (kg ) as follows:
B* 2
lb. (kg) - A* 1
lb. (kg) = C* 3
lb. (kg)
* 1
: A =Weight of people
* 2
: B =Total load capacity
* 3
: C =Available cargo and luggage load
In this condition, if 2 more passengers with the combined weigh t of D
lb. (kg) get on, the available cargo and luggage load will be r educed E
lb. (kg) as follows:
C lb. (kg) - D* 4
lb. (kg) = E* 5
lb. (kg)
* 4
: D =Additional we ight of people
* 5
: E =Available cargo and luggage load

2582-5. Driving information
As shown in the example above, if the number of occupants
increases, the cargo and luggage load will be reduced by an amo unt
that equals the increased weig ht due to the additional occupant s. In
other words, if an increase in t he number of occupants causes a n
excess of the total load capacit y (combined weight of occupants plus
cargo and luggage load), you must reduce the cargo and luggage on
your vehicle.
WARNING■
Things that must not be carried in the trunk
The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the trunk:●
Receptacles containing gasoline●
Aerosol cans

When driving WARNING■
Storage precautions
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result i n death or serious injury.●
Stow cargo and luggage in the trunk whenever possible.●
To prevent cargo and luggage from sliding forward during brakin g, do
not stack anything in the enlarged trunk. Keep cargo and luggag e low,
as close to the floor as possible.●
When you fold down the rear seats, long items should not be pla ced
directly behind the front seats.●
Never allow anyone to ride in the enlarged trunk. It is not des igned for
passengers. They should ride in their seats with their seat bel ts prop-
erly fastened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer d eath or
serious bodily injury, in the event of sudden braking, sudden s werving
or an accident.
●
Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations as the
item may get under the clutch, brake or accelerator pedal and p revent
the pedals from being depressed properly, block the driver’s vi sion, or
hit the driver or passengers, causing an accident:
• At the feet of the driver
• On the front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• On the package tray
• On the instrument panel
• On the dashboard
●
Secure all items in the occupant compartment, as they may shift and
injure someone during sudden braking, sudden swerving or an acc i-
dent.
■
Capacity and distribution
●
Do not exceed the maximum axle weight rating or the total vehic le
weight rating.
●
Even if the total load of occupant's weight and the cargo load is less
than the total load capacity, do not apply the load unevenly. I mproper
loading may cause deterioration of steering or braking control which
may cause death or serious injury.

braking ability, resulting in an accident. Vehicle load limits include total load capacity, seating capaci ty,
towing capacity and cargo capacity.
■ Total load capacity (veh icle capacity weight): (  P. 458)Total load capacity means the combined weight of occupants, car go
and luggage.
■ Seating capacity 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.
