Page 219 2-4. Using other driving systems Driving in vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of vehi- cles up to approximately 120 m (400 ft.) ahead, determines the cur- rent vehicle-to-vehicle following distance, and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from the vehicle ahead.
Page 220 2-4. Using other driving systems Example of follow-up cruising When following a vehicle driving slower than the set speed The system continues follow-up cruising while adjusting for changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead in order to maintain the vehicle-to- vehicle distance set by the driver.

Page 262 2-5. Driving information Guidance 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:  Checking connections between trailer and lights Stop the vehicle and check the operation of the connection between the trailer and lights after driving for a brief period as well as before setting off.
Page 263 2-5. Driving information  Important points regarding turning The wheels of the trailer will travel closer to the inside of the curve than the wheels of the vehicle. To make allowance for this, take the turns wider than you would normally. ...
Page 264 2-5. Driving information CAUTION  Vehicle speed in towing Observe the legal maximum speeds for trailer towing.  Before descending hills or long declines Reduce speed and downshift. However, never downshift suddenly while descending steep or long downhill grades.  Operation of the brake Do not hold the brake pedal depressed often or for long periods.
