7-2.Steps to take in an emergency

If your vehicle needs

to be towed

If towing is necessary, we
recommend having your
vehicle towed by your Toy-
ota dealer or commercial
towing service, using a
wheel-lift type truck or flat-
bed truck.

Use a safety chain system
for all towing, and abide by
all state/provincial and local
laws.

If towing your vehicle with a
wheel-lift type truck from
the front, the vehicle’s rear
wheels and axles must be in
good conditions. (

P.453)

If they are damaged, use a
towing dolly or flatbed
truck.

WARNING

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

When towing the vehicle

2WD models

Be sure to transport the vehicle

with the front wheels raised or

with all four wheels raised off the

ground. If the vehicle is towed

with the front wheels contacting

the ground, the drivetrain and

related parts may be damaged.

AWD models

Be sure to transport the vehicle

with all four wheels raised off the

ground. If the vehicle is towed

with the tires contacting the

ground, the drivetrain or related

parts may be damaged, the vehi-

cle may fly off the truck.

WARNING

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 dam-

age.

NOTICE

To prevent damage to the

vehicle when towing using a

wheel-lift type truck

When raising the vehicle, ensure

adequate ground clearance for

towing at the opposite end of the

raised vehicle. Without adequate

clearance, the vehicle could be

damaged while being towed.

To prevent damage to the

vehicle when towing with a

sling-type truck

Do not tow with a sling-type truck,

either from the front or rear.

To prevent damage to the

vehicle during emergency

towing

Do not secure cables or chains to

the suspension components.

When towing a vehicle

equipped with a Stop & Start

system (if equipped)

If it is necessary to tow the vehicle

with all 4 wheels on the ground,

perform the following procedure

before towing the vehicle, in order

to protect the system.

Turn the engine switch off and

then start the engine or turn the

engine switch to ON.

Recreational towing (behind

motor home, etc.)

Never dinghy tow your vehicle to

prevent causing serious damage
