  • 2-5. Driving information
    • Take notice of the following information about storage precautions, cargo capacity and load.
    • l Stow cargo and luggage in the trunk whenever possible.
    • l Be sure all items are secured in place.
    • l Be careful to keep the vehicle level. Placing the weight as far forward as possible helps maintain vehicle balance.
    • l For better fuel economy, do not carry unnecessary weight.
    • Cargo capacity depends on the total weight of the occupants.
    • (Cargo capacity) = (Total load capacity) - (Total weight of occupants)
    • Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit-
      • (1) Locate the statement “The combined 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 that will be riding in your vehicle.
      • (3) Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
      • (4) The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.
      • For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 ¥ 150) = 650 lbs.)
      • (5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.
      • (6) If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.
        • Except Canada: Toyota does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. Your vehicle is not designed for trailer towing.
    • When 2 people with the combined weight of 366 lb. (166 kg) are riding in your vehicle, which has a total load capacity of 845 lb. (383 kg), the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity will be as follows:
    • 845 lb. - 366 lb. = 479 lb. (383 kg - 166 kg = 217 kg)
      • In this condition, if 3 more passengers with the combined weight of 388 lb. (176 kg) get on, the available cargo and luggage load will be reduced as follows:
    • 479 lb. - 388 lb. = 91 lb. (217 kg - 176 kg = 41 kg)
    • As shown in the above example, if the number of occupants increases, the cargo and luggage load will be reduced by an amount tha...
      • n Things that must not be carried in the trunk

        • n Capacity and distribution
          • l Do not exceed the maximum axle weight rating or the total vehicle weight rating.
          • l 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. Improper loading may cause deterioration of steering or braking control which may cause death or serious injury.
      • Vehicle load limits include total load capacity, seating capacity, towing capacity and cargo capacity.
      • n Total load capacity: 845 lb. (383 kg)
      • Total load capacity means the combined weight of occupants, cargo and luggage.
      • n Seating capacity: 5 occupants (Front 2, Rear 3)
      • Seating capacity means the maximum number of occupants whose estimated average weight is 150 lb. (68 kg) per person.
      • Even if the number of occupants are within the seating capacity, do not exceed the total load capacity.
      • n Towing capacity (Canada): 700 lb. (318 kg)
      • Towing capacity means the maximum gross trailer weight (trailer weight plus its cargo weight) that your vehicle is able to tow.
      • n Towing capacity (except Canada):

        • n Safety chain
      • A safety chain must always be used between the towing vehicle and the trailer. Leave sufficient slack in the chain for turns. Th...
        • n Do not directly splice trailer lights
      • Directly splicing may damage your vehicle’s electrical system and cause a malfunction.
    • Your vehicle will handle differently when towing a trailer. In order to avoid accident, death or serious injury, keep the following in mind when towing:
      • l Before starting out, check the trailer’s light and the vehicle-trailer connections. Recheck after driving a short distance.
      • l Practice turning, stopping and reversing with the trailer attached in an area away from traffic until you become accustomed to the feel of the vehicle.
      • l Reversing with a trailer attached is difficult and requires practice. Grip the bottom of the steering wheel and move your hand...
      • l As stopping distance is increased when towing a trailer, vehicle-to- vehicle distance should be increased. For each 10 mph (16 km/h) of speed, allow at least one vehicle and trailer length.
      • l Avoid sudden braking as you may skid, resulting in jackknifing and loss of control. This is especially true on wet or slippery surfaces.
      • l Avoid jerky starts or sudden acceleration. Vehicles with a manual transmission: Prevent excessive clutch slippage by keeping engine rpm low and not racing the engine. Always start out in first gear.
      • l Avoid jerky steering and sharp turns, and slow down before making a turn.
      • l Note that when making a turn, the trailer wheels will be closer than the vehicle wheels to the inside of the turn. Compensate by making a larger than normal turning radius.
      • l Crosswinds and rough roads will adversely affect handling of your vehicle and trailer, causing sway. Periodically check the re...
      • l Take care when passing other vehicles. Passing requires considerable distance. After passing a vehicle, do not forget the length of your trailer, and be sure you have plenty of room before changing lanes.
      • l In order to maintain engine braking efficiency, do not use the transmission in D (automatic transmission) or 5 (manual transmission).
      • l Due to the added load of the trailer, your vehicle’s engine may overheat on hot days (at temperatures over 85˚F [30˚C]) when d...

        • When the wheel blocks are in place, release the brakes slowly until the blocks absorb the load.
        • Apply the parking brake firmly.
        • Shift into 1 or R (manual transmission) or P (automatic transmission) and turn off the engine.
      • l When restarting after parking on a slope:
        • With the transmission in P (automatic transmission) or the clutch pedal (manual transmission) depressed, start the engine. On vehicles with an automatic transmission, be sure to keep the brake pedal pressed.
        • Shift into a forward gear. If reversing, shift into R.
        • Release the parking brake (also brake pedal on vehicles with an automatic transmission), and slowly pull or back away from the wheel blocks. Stop and apply the brakes.
        • Have someone retrieve the blocks.
          • n To avoid an accident
            • l Do not exceed 45 mph (72 km/h) or posted towing speed limit, whichever is lower. As instability (swaying) of the towing vehicle-trailer combination increases as speed increases, exceeding 45 mph (72 km/h) may cause loss of control.
            • l Slow down and downshift before descending steep or long downhill grades. Do not make sudden downshifts.
            • l Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat and result in reduced braking efficiency.
