Recommendations
The legislation on carrying a child on the front passenger seat is specific to each country. Refer to the legislation in force in the country in which you are driving.Deactivate the passenger front airbag when a rear ward facing child seat is installed on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were deployed.
For optimum installation of the forward facing child seat, ensure that the back of the child seat is as close as possible to the backrest of the vehicle's seat, or in contact if possible.The head restraint must be removed before installing a child seat with a backrest on the passenger seat.Ensure that the head restraint is stowed or attached securely so that it is not thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking.Refit the head restraint as soon as the child seat is removed.
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in the event of an accident.Check that there is no seat belt or seat belt buckle under the child seat as this could destabilise it.Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harnesses keeping the slack in relation to the child's body to a minimum, even for short journeys.For the installation of a child seat using a seat belt, ensure that this is well tensioned on the child seat and that it is holding the child seat firmly against the seat of your vehicle. If your front passenger seat is adjustable, move it forward if necessary.At the rear seats, always leave sufficient space between the front seat and:- a rear ward facing child seat,- the feet of a child seated in a for ward facing child seat.For this, move the front seat for ward and if necessary straighten its backrest.
Children at the front
The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck.Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt passes correctly over the child's thighs.Toyota recommends the use of a booster seat which has a back, fitted with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, do not leave:- one or more children alone and unsupervised in a vehicle,- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windows closed,- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.To prevent accidental opening of the doors, use the child lock.Take care not to open the rear windows by more than one third.To protect young children from the rays of the sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

To assure the durability of your vehicle and your safety, remember that certain precautions, described hereafter, should be taken when driving your vehicle:
Load the vehicle correctly
With a load carried, the vehicle must remain within the maximum authorised weight, the Gross Vehicle Weight.To avoid upsetting the balance of the vehicle, the load should be centred and the heaviest part placed on the floor in front of the rear wheels.
Manoeuve cautiously, at
low speed
The dimensions of your vehicle differ from those of a light vehicle, in width, in height, as well as in length, and some obstacles will be more difficult to notice.Manoeuvre slowly.Before turning, check that there are no obstacles at mid-height along the sides.Before reversing, check that there are no obstacles, particularly at high level behind the vehicle.Be aware of the external dimensions, if ladders are fitted.
It is inadvisable to place heavy loads on a roof rack.Loading the roof rack also requires you not to exceed the maximum load on the roof rack anchorages. Observe the maximum authorised weight, available from Toyota dealers.Loads must be securely lashed down.Cargo that is not properly secured inside the vehicle can adversely affect the handling of the vehicle and create the risk of accident.If your vehicle is fitted with a drop-side back, the height and width of the load must remain within the overall dimensions of the vehicle.
Drive the vehicle in a
prudent and efficient way
Take corners gently.Anticipate the need to brake as the stopping distance is increased, particularly on wet or icy roads.Be aware of the effect of side winds on the vehicle.Effective eco-driving saves fuel; accelerate progressively, anticipate the need to slow down and adapt your speed to suit the situation.Indicate changes of direction well in advance
so that you are seen by other road users.
Take care
The tyres must be inflated to at least the pressures indicated on the label, even over-inflated by 0.2 to 0.3 bar for long journeys.After ensuring that no obstacle might prevent closing, guide the movement of the door at the right speed until it closes.

F Turn thumbwheel 1 to the "0" position. The display of speed limiter information
disappears.
- by pressing button 5, if your vehicle has Road Sign Assist:F the speed to be memorised is displayed in the instrument panel,F press button 5 again to save the speed.The value is then displayed in the instrument panel.
For more information on Road Sign Assist, refer to the corresponding section.
The use of mats not approved by Toyota may inter fere with the operation of the speed limiter.To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:- ensure that the mat is secured c o r r e c t l y,- do not fit one mat on top of another.

Flashing of the dashes indicates a fault with the cruise control.Have it checked by an authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Operating faultWhen the cruise control is switched on, be careful if you maintain the pressure on one of the programmed speed changing buttons: this may result in a very rapid change in the speed of your vehicle.Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffic.
On a steep descent, the cruise control will not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.On steep climbs or when towing, the programmed speed may not be achieved or maintained.

In the event of a fault with the adaptive cruise control, you are alerted by an audible signal and display of the message message "Driving aid functions fault".Have the system checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Operating faultThe adaptive cruise control operates by day and at night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
When the cruise control is working, take care if making a maintained press on one of the cruise control programmed speed modification buttons: this can lead to a very quick change in the speed of your vehicle.Do not use the adaptive cruise control on slippery sur faces or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise control may not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.When ascending a steep hill or when towing, it might not be possible to achieve or maintain the programmed speed.
The use of mats not approved by Toyota may inter fere with the operation of the adaptive cruise control.To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:- ensure that mats are secured c o r r e c t l y,- never fit one mat on top of another.It is recommended that you always keep
your feet close to the pedals.
If the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front is too great, the speed cannot be adjusted: the cruise control is automatically deactivated.
The system does not act on the braking system, but works only with engine braking.The regulation range is limited: there will no longer be any adjustment of speed if the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front becomes too high.
The adaptive cruise control cannot in any circumstances replace the observation of speed limits, nor the need for the vigilance on the part of the driver.
