Instructions for storing luggage
Observe the following when storing luggage or cargo in
the vehicle:
• If possible, store luggage or cargo in the trunk or trunk.
Make sure all luggage is securely secured.
• Pay attention to the vehicle's balance.
Placing objects as far forward as possible
helps maintain proper vehicle balance.
• To achieve better fuel consumption, do
not carry unnecessary loads.
WARNING
Brake pad wear indicators on disc brakes emit a
warning sound when the pads are worn and need to
be replaced.
• Do not place objects in the trunk or luggage
compartment above the level of the backrests,
as the luggage or cargo may move forward when
braking. Store cargo and luggage as close to the
vehicle floor as possible.
If you hear any squealing or screeching noises while
driving, have the brake pads checked and replaced
immediately by your nearest authorized Toyota dealer
or workshop, or by another properly qualified and
equipped professional.
• Never transport any persons in the
trunk or luggage compartment.
It is not intended for transporting people.
Passengers should be seated in their seats and
properly fastened with seat belts. In the event
of sudden braking or an accident, they could
otherwise be injured.
If the warning sound appears, do not continue driving.
Continuing to drive without replacing the brake pads will
cause expensive damage to the brake discs and require
more force on the brake pedal to achieve the same
stopping distance.
• Do not place any objects on the
storage plate behind the rear
backrests or on the luggage cover.
During hard braking or an accident,
such objects could be thrown and
injure people.
