2011 Toyota Highlander Owners Manual

●Do not use cruise control when you are towing. ●Slow down and downshift before descending steep or long downhill

grades. Do not make sudden downshifts.

●Avoid holding the brake pedal down too long or applying the brakes too frequently. This could cause the brakes to overheat and result in reduced braking efficiency.

●Do not tow the vehicle with the compact spare tire installed.

■Hitches

●If you wish to install a trailer hitch, contact your Toyota dealer. ●Use only a hitch that conforms to the gross trailer weight requirement. ●2.7 L 4-cylinder (1AR-FE) engine: The towing capacity of 3500 lb. (1500
kg) can only be guaranteed when using a genuine Toyota hitch assembly or equivalent.

●3.5 L V6 (2GR-FE) engine: The towing capacity of 5000 lb. (2000 kg) can only be guaranteed when using a genuine Toyota hitch assembly or equiv- alent.

●Follow the directions supplied by the hitch manufacturer.

243

2-5. Driving information

CAUTION

●Lubricate the hitch ball with a light coat of grease. ●Remove the trailer hitch whenever you are not towing a trailer. After removing the hitch, seal any mounting hole in the vehicle body to prevent entry of any substances into the vehicle.

■When towing a trailer

●If the gross trailer weight exceeds 1000 lb. (453 kg), trailer brakes are required. Toyota recommends trailers with brakes that conform to all appli- cable federal and state/provincial regulations.

●Never tap into your vehicle's hydraulic system, as this will lower the vehi-

cle's braking effectiveness.

●Never tow a trailer without using a safety chain securely attached to both the trailer and the vehicle. If damage occurs to the coupling unit or hitch ball, there is danger of the trailer wandering into another lane.

NOTICE

■When installing a trailer hitch

●Use only the position recommended by your Toyota dealer. Do not install

the trailer hitch on the bumper as this may cause body damage.

●Do not use axle-mounted hitches, as they can cause damage to the axle

housing, wheel bearings, wheels or tires.

■Safety chain

A safety chain must always be used between the towing vehicle and the trailer. Leave sufficient slack in the chain for turns. The chain should cross under the trailer tongue to prevent the tongue from dropping to the ground in the case that it becomes damaged or separated. For the correct safety chain installation procedure, ask your Toyota dealer.

■Do not directly splice trailer lights

Directly splicing trailer lights may damage your vehicle's electrical system and cause a malfunction.

244

2-5. Driving information Dinghy towing

Your vehicle is not designed to be dinghy towed (with 4 wheels on the ground) behind a motor home.

NOTICE

■To avoid serious damage to your vehicle

Do not tow your vehicle with 4 wheels on the ground.

In order to prevent the windows from fogging up, recirculated air mode may automatically switch to outside air mode if the ambient temperature drops. This feature can be canceled by pushing and holding the air intake mode switch for longer than 2 seconds. The feature will be reactivated when the engine switch is turned to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position. ■When outside air temperature approaches 32°F (0°C) The air conditioning system may not operate even when

■When

is selected for the air outlets used

For your driving comfort, air flowing to the feet may be warmer than air flow- ing to the upper body depending on the position of the temperature adjust- ment dial.

■Air conditioning odors

●During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to be emitted from the vents.

●To reduce potential odors from occurring:

It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

CAUTION

■To prevent the windshield from fogging up

Do not set the air outlet selection dial to during cool air operation in extremely humid weather. The difference between the temperature of the outside air and that of the windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, blocking your vision.

●Type B and C ⎯ Cargo loaded on the roof luggage carrier, especially metal objects, may adversely affect the reception of XM® Satellite Radio. ●Maintaining perfect radio reception at all times is difficult due to the con- tinually changing position of the antenna, differences in signal strength and surrounding objects, such as trains and transmitters.

●Mast type antenna ⎯ The radio antenna is mounted on the right-side

front fender. The antenna can be removed from the base by turning it.

●Print type antenna ⎯ The radio antenna is mounted inside the left-side rear quarter window. To maintain clear radio reception, do not attach metallic window tinting or other metallic objects to the antenna wire mounted inside the left-side rear quarter window.

■XM® Satellite Radio (type B and C)

An XM® Satellite Radio is a tuner designed exclusively to receive broadcasts provided under a separate subscription. Availability is limited to the 48 con- tiguous states and 10 Canadian provinces. ●XM® subscriptions

■Certifications for the radio tuner

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. How- ever, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by trying one or more of the following: ●Reorienting or relocating the receiving antenna. ●Increasing the separation between the equipment and receiver. ●Connecting the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected.

●Consulting the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

NOTICE

■To prevent damage, remove the antenna in the following cases.
