Eco-friendly driving tips
For improved fuel economy and reduced CO2 emissions, pay atten-
tion to the following points:
◆Accelerator pedal/brake pedal operation
Drive your vehicle smoothly. Avoid abrupt acceleration and deceleration.
Gradual acceleration and deceleration will help reduce excessive fuel con-
sumption.
◆When braking
Observe conditions in front of and around the vehicle, and estimate your
stopping position. Release the accele rator pedal early and continue coast-
ing. Use the brake pedal to adjust your stopping position.
Make sure to operate the brake pedal gently.
◆Delays
Repeated acceleration and deceleration, as well as long waits at traffic
lights, will lead to bad fuel economy. Check traffic reports before leaving
and avoid delays as much as possible.
◆Highway driving
Control and maintain the vehicle at a constant speed. Before stopping at a
toll booth or similar, allow plenty of time to release the accelerator pedal
and gently apply the brakes.
◆Air conditioning
Use the air conditioning only when necessary. Doing so can help
reduce excessive fuel consumption.
In summer: When the ambient temper ature is high, use the recirculated
air mode. Doing so will help to redu ce the burden on the air conditioning
system and reduce fuel consumption as well.
In winter: Turn the A/C switch on on ly when both heating and dehumidify-
ing are needed, and if only heating is needed, turn the A/C switch off.
Turning the A/C switch on when unnece ssary leads to excessive fuel con-
sumption.

RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
Using a flatbed truck
If your vehicle is transported by a
flatbed truck, it should be tied down
at the locations shown in the illustra-
tion.
After transportation, restore the lid
attached to the rear side.
If you use chains or cables to tie
down your vehicle, the angles
shaded in black must be 45°.
NOTICE
⬛Using a flatbed truck
Do not overly tighten the tie downs or the vehicle may be damaged.
Emergency towing
If a tow truck is not available in an emergency, your vehicle may be tempo-
rarily towed using cables or chains secured to the emergency towing eye-
lets. This should only be attempted on hard surfaced roads for at most 80
km (50 miles) at under 30 km/h (18 mph).
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer and operate the brakes.
The vehicle’s wheels, drive train, ax les, steering and brakes must be in

RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
⬛While towing
If the engine is not running, the power assist for the brakes and steering will
not function, making steering and braking more difficult.
⬛Wheel nut wrench
The wheel nut wrench is stored at the bottom of the front left seat. ( ➞P. 397)
⬛After towing
Remove the towing eyelet and secu rely attach the cover in place.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or seri-
ous injury.
⬛While towing
⚫When towing using cables or chains, avoid sudden starts, etc. which place
excessive stress on the towing eyelets, cables or chains. The towing eyelets,
cables or chains may become damaged, broken debris may hit people, and
cause serious damage.
⚫Do not turn the engine switch “OFF”.
There is a possibility that the steerin g wheel is locked and cannot be oper-
ated.
⬛Installing towing eyelets to the vehicle
Make sure that towing eyelets are instal led securely. If not securely installed,
towing eyelets may come loose during towing.
NOTICE
⬛To prevent damage to the vehicle during emergency towing
Do not secure cables or chains to the suspension components.
⬛When the engine switch malfunctions (vehicles with key-free system)
Since the steering wheel cannot be unloc ked, towing by rope is not possible.

: If equipped
WARNING
⬛When the electric power steering system warning light comes on
When the light comes on yellow, the assist to the power steering is restricted.
When the light comes on red, the assist to the power steering is lost and han-
dling operations of the steering wheel become extremely heavy. When steer-
ing wheel operations are heavier than us ual, grip the steering wheel firmly and
operate it using more force than usual.
⬛If the tire pressure warning light comes on (vehicles with a tire pressure
warning system)
Be sure to observe the following precaut ions. Failure to do so could cause a
loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury.
⚫Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire inflation
pressure immediately.
⚫If the tire pressure warning light come s on even after tire inflation pressure
adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Check the tires. If a tire is
flat, change it with the spare tire and ha ve the flat tire repaired by the near-
est Toyota dealer.
⚫Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you
could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.
⬛If a blowout or sudden air leakage sh ould occur (vehicles with a tire
pressure warning system)
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.
NOTICE
⬛To ensure the tire pressure warning system✽ operates properly
Do not install tires with different specif ications or makers, as the tire pressure
warning system may not operate properly.
