Shifting between “4H” and “4L”
When stopped, shift to “N” position, then push and turn to “4L”\
from “4H.”
NOTE: For best fuel economy and performance under normal driving
conditions, keep in “2WD” position.
2WDHigh speed (2WD) Normal driving on dry hard-surfaced roads.
4HHigh speed (4WD) For driving only on roads that permit the tires to
slide, like off-road, icy or snow-covered roads.
4L
Low speed (4WD)
For maximum power and traction when climbing or descending steep
hills, off-road driving, and hard pulling in sand, mud or deep snow.

The trailer brakes can be controlled by the Trailer brake controller via\
the 7-pin
connector. By selecting the type of brakes that are being used on the tr\
ailer
(electric or electric-over-hydraulic) and setting the gain for the con\
troller, the
manual TRAILER BRAKE OUTPUT slider is used to slow just the trailer. The\
vehicle
brake pedal will also slow down as well as stop the trailer when applied\
. Gain
values, manual brake outputs, trailer brake types and the trailer connec\
tion status
are displayed in the multi-information display.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details.
“Tow/Haul” mode is ideal for use when carrying heavy loads. When t\
he TOW/HAUL
switch is pressed, throttle response and transmission control are optimi\
zed for the
high performance operation. As fuel economy is reduced while in “Tow/\
Haul” mode,
deactivating when driving without a load is recommended.
• Upshifts occur at higher engine speeds to expand the use of lower g\
ear ranges, enhancing power performance during towing and preventing repeated gear
changes.
• Downshifts occur at a greater accelerator pedal angle to allow the vehic\
le to stay
in a higher gear, reducing repeated gear changes.
• Downshifts occur at a lower accelerator pedal angle to allow the vehicle\
to stay in
a lower gear, enhancing towing ability.
• When the accelerator pedal is wide open, upshift timing is optimized to \
effectively
use the maximum engine power range available.
When Tow/Haul is engaged, the opening angle of the electronically contro\
lled
throttle is wider for any given accelerator pedal position than normal, \
enhancing
acceleration feeling and response.
• During uphill driving, the gear position is held to prevent repeated ups\
hifting.
• During downhill driving, downshifting to lower gears will occur to effec\
tively use
engine braking.

FEATURES & OPERATIONS
The BSM is a system that has two functions:
• The Blind Spot Monitor function (assists the driver in decision ma\
king when changing lanes)
• The Rear Cross Traffic Alert function (assists the driver when bac\
king up)
The system uses radar sensors to detect vehicles that are traveling in t\
he Tundra’s
blind spot. If a vehicle is detected, the driver will be alerted via the\
outside rear
view side mirror indicators.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert function:
While in reverse, when a vehicle approaching from the right or left rear\
of the
Tundra is detected, the outside rear view mirror indicators will flash, \
and the RCTA
buzzer will sound.

The parking assist sonar system operates when the vehicle approaches an \
obstacle. The distance from your vehicle to nearby obstacles when parall\
el parking
or maneuvering into a garage is measured by sensors and communicated via\
the
Multi-Information Display (MID) and buzzer.
When the sensor detects an obstacle, the direction of and the approximat\
e distance
to the obstacle are displayed on the MID display by illuminating continu\
ously (far)
or blinking (near), and beeping sounds will switch from intermittent t\
o continuous as
you approach and get closer to a detected obstacle. When the sensors det\
ect two
or more obstacles, the audible alerts will respond to the nearest zone. \
Always check the surrounding area when using this system.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual limitations and more details.

may
also help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle using the forward-facing
camera and front grille-mounted radar. The forward-facing camera of PCS detect\
s a
potential pedestrian based on size, profile, and motion of the detected \
pedestrian.
However, a pedestrian may not be detected depending on the conditions, i\
ncluding
the surrounding brightness and the motion, posture, size, and angle of t\
he potential
detected pedestrian, preventing the system from operating or engaging.

ADJUSTING DISTANCE
To change the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance

Push the “
” button to
cycle through the settings,
which will change progressively.
This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of a preceding v\
ehicle
up to approximately 328 ft (100 m) ahead, determines the current vehic\
le-to-vehicle
following distance and operates to maintain a preset following distance \
from the
vehicle ahead. These distances vary based on vehicle speed.
(1) (2) (3)
(1) Constant speed cruising when there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The desired vehicle-\
to-
vehicle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle dis\
tance
control.
(2) Deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising when a preceding vehicle
driving slower than the set speed appears When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automaticall\
y
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is
necessary, the system applies the brakes (the brake lights will come on\
at this
time). The system will respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle a\
head
in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. \
A warning
tone warns you when the system cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent\
your
vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.
Note: Vehicle-to-vehicle distance will close in when traveling on long downhill
slopes.

SWITCHING TO CONSTANT SPEED (CRUISE) CONTROL MODE
Note: When your vehicle is too close to a vehicle ahead, and sufficient automatic
deceleration via the cruise control is not possible, the display will flash and the
buzzer will sound to alert the driver. An example of this would be if another driver
cuts in front of you while you are following a vehicle. Depress the brake pedal to
ensure an appropriate vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
If you are already using DRCC “,” push button again to turn the system off
first, then push and hold button for at least 1.5 seconds to switch.
Note: When the engine is turned off, it will automatically default to DRCC.
(3) Acceleration when there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving
slower than the set speed The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then
returns to constant speed cruising.
