Use the stowing rings on the rear floor to secure loads.As a safety precaution in case of sharp braking, we recommend placing heavy objects as far forwards as possible (i.e. near the cab).We recommend using the stowing rings on the floor to firmly secure the load.
Load retaining partition


On the floor, behind the front seats, a vertical partition protects the driver and front passengers against the risk of load movement.
Steel or glazed partitions separate the loading area from the cab.
Recommendations on
loading
WARNI NG
The weight of the load must comply with the
Gross Train Weight (GTW).For more information on Engine technical data and towed loads, refer to the corresponding section.
WARNI NG
If you are using a carrying system (roof bars/roof rack), comply with the maximum loads associated with this system.For more information on Roof bars/Roof rack, refer to the corresponding section.
WARNI NG
Make sure that the size, shape and volume of the loads carried are compatible with the highway code and safety regulations and do not impair the driver’s field of vision.
WARNI NG
The load must be evenly distributed in the loading area so as not to interfere with driving the vehicle.Place the load close to the side panels, or even push it against the side panels between the wheel arches.However, it is recommended that heavy
objects are placed as close to the cab as possible as a precaution in case of sharp braking.
WARNI NG
Firmly secure all parts of the load using the stowing rings on the floor of the loading area.For more information on the Interior fittings and in particular on the stowing rings, refer to the corresponding section.

Heating and Ventilation
Advice
NOTIC E
Using the ventilation and air conditioning system► To ensure that air is distributed evenly, keep the external air intake grilles at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the air outlets and the air extractor in the boot free from obstructions.► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located on the dashboard; this sensor is used to regulate the automatic air conditioning system.► Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to keep it in perfect working order.► If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power, enhancing the towing capacity.
WARNI NG
Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high after the vehicle has stood for a long time in the sunshine, air the passenger compartment for a few moments.Put the air flow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment.
NOTIC E
Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly normal.

Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning lamp comes on on the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message and an audible signal.
Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNI NG
ASR/DSCThese systems enhance safety during normal driving, but should not encourage the driver to
take extra risks or drive at high speed.It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow, ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It is therefore important for your safety to keep these systems activated in all conditions, and particularly in difficult conditions.Correct operation of these systems depends on compliance with the manufacturer's recommendations relating to the wheels (tyres and rims), braking and electronic components, as well as the assembly and repair procedures provided by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.In order to ensure that these systems remain effective in wintry conditions, the use of snow or all-season tyres is recommended. All four wheels must be fitted with tyres approved for your vehicle.All tyre specifications are listed on the tyre/paint label. For more information on Identification markings, refer to the corresponding section.
Intelligent traction control
Depending on version, the vehicle has a system to help with driving on snow: intelligent traction control.This system detects situations of poor surface grip that could make it difficult to move off or make progress on deep fresh snow or compacted snow.In these situations, the system limits the amount
of wheel spin to provide the best traction and trajectory control for the vehicle.
NOTIC E
The use of snow tyres is strongly recommended on surfaces offering low levels of grip.
Trailer stability assist (TSA)
When towing, this system reduces the risk of the vehicle or trailer snaking.
Operation
The system is activated automatically when the ignition is switched on.The electronic stability control system (VSC) must not have any faults.
The vehicle speed must be between 37 and 99 mph (60 and 160 km/h).If the system detects that the trailer is snaking, it applies the brakes to stabilise the trailer and reduces engine power, if
