WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SET
Activating the system
The system will give the alarm and cut
the starter circuit under the following
conditions:

If any of the doors is unlocked or if
the trunk or hood is forcibly opened
without the key or wireless remote con-
trol transmitter

If the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnected
After one minute, the alarm will automati-
cally stop with the starter circuit cut kept
on.
Reactivating the alarm
Once set, the system automatically resets
the alarm each time all the doors, trunk
and hood are closed after the alarm
stops.
The alarm will be activated again under
the following conditions:

If any of the doors, trunk or hood is
opened

If the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnectedStopping the alarm
Turn the ignition key from the ºLOCKº to
ºONº position. The alarm will be stopped
with the starter circuit cut kept on. Stop-
ping the alarm in this manner will keep
the alarm from being reactivated when any
of the doors, trunk or hood is opened.
Interrupting the setting
With the system set, the trunk can be
opened with the key without activating or
cancelling the system. While it is open,
the doors and hood may be opened in
addition. However, when the battery termi-
nal is disconnected and then reconnected,
the system is activated.
To resume the setting, close and lock all
the doors, trunk and hood. The trunk must
be closed with the key removed.
CANCELLING THE SYSTEM
Unlock either front door with the key or
wireless remote control transmitter. This
cancels the system completely and the
starter circuit cut will be cancelled at
once.INDICATOR LIGHT
The indicator light gives the following
three indications.
FLASHINGÐThe system is set. You need
the key or wireless remote control trans-
mitter to open the doors, trunk and hood.
ONÐThe system will automatically be set
when the time comes. The doors, trunk
and hood may be opened without a key
or wireless remote control transmitter.
OFFÐThe system is inactive. You may
open any door, trunk and hood.

Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed
in thousands of rpm
( revolutions per
minute). Use it while driving to select
correct shift points and to prevent en-
gine lugging and overrevving.
Driving with the engine running too fast
causes excessive engine wear and poor
fuel economy. Remember, in most cases
the slower the engine speed, the greater
the fuel economy.
NOTICE
Do not let the indicator needle get
into the red zone. This may cause
severe engine damage.
Odometer and two trip meters
This meter displays the odometer and
two trip meters.
1. OdometerÐIt shows the total distance
the vehicle has been driven.
2. Two trip metersÐThey show two differ-
ent distances independently driven
since the last time each trip meter was
set to zero.
You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to
measure the distance on each trip. All
trip meter data is cancelled if the elec-
trical power source is disconnected.3. Trip meter reset knobÐIt can reset the
two trip meters to zero, and also
change the meter display.
To change the meter display, quickly
push and release the knob. The meter
display changes in the order from the
odometer to trip meter A to trip meter
B, then back to the odometer each
time you push.
To reset the trip meter A to zero, dis-
play the meter A reading, then push
and hold the knob until the meter is
set to zero. The same process can be
applied for resetting the trip meter B.

TURNING ON THE SYSTEM
To operate the cruise control, press the
ºCRUISE ON´OFFº button. This turns the
system on. The indicator light in the
instrument panel shows that you can now
set the vehicle at a desired cruising
speed. Another press will turn the system
completely off.
CAUTION
To avoid accidental cruise control en-
gagement, keep the ºCRUISE ON´OFFº
switch off when not using the cruise
control.
SETTING AT A DESIRED SPEED
On vehicles with automatic transmission,
the transmission must be in ºDº before
you set the cruise control speed.
Bring your vehicle to the desired speed,
push the lever down in the ºSET/COASTº
direction and release it. This sets the ve-
hicle at that speed. If the speed is not
satisfactory, tap the lever up for a faster
speed, or tap it down for a slower speed.
Each tap changes the set speed by 1.6
km/h (1.0 mph). You can now take your
foot off the accelerator pedal.If you need accelerationÐfor example,
when passingÐdepress the accelerator
pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed
the set speed. When you release it, the
vehicle will return to the speed set prior
to the acceleration.
CAUTION
For manual transmission:
While driving with the cruise control
on, do not shift to neutral without
depressing the clutch pedal, as this
may cause engine racing or overrev-
ving.
CANCELLING THE PRESET SPEED
You can cancel the preset speed by:
a. Pulling the lever in the ºCANCELº
direction and releasing it.
b. Depressing the brake pedal.
c. Depressing the clutch pedal (manual
transmission).
If the vehicle speed falls below about 40
km/h (25 mph), the preset speed will auto-
matically cancel out.
If the vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10
mph) below the preset speed,the preset
speed will also automatically cancel out.

If the preset speed automatically cancels
out other than for the above cases, have
your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal-
er at the earliest opportunity.
RESETTING AT A FASTER SPEED
Push the lever up in the ºRES/ACCº direc-
tion and hold it. Release the lever when
the desired speed is attained. While the
lever is held up, the vehicle will gradually
gain speed.
However, a faster way to reset is to ac-
celerate the vehicle and then push the
lever down in the ºSET/COASTº direction.
RESETTING AT A SLOWER SPEED
Push the lever down in the ºSET/COASTº
direction and hold it. Release the lever
when the desired speed is attained. While
the lever is held down, the vehicle speed
will gradually decrease.
However, a faster way to reset is to de-
press the brake pedal and then push the
lever down in the ºSET/COASTº direction.On vehicles with 4- speed automatic trans-
mission, even if you turn off the overdrive
switch, with the cruise control on, engine
braking will not be applied because the
cruise control is not cancelled. To de-
crease the vehicle speed, reset to a slow-
er speed with the cruise control lever or
depress the brake pedal. If you use the
brake pedal, cruise control is cancelled.
RESUMING THE PRESET SPEED
If the preset speed is cancelled by pulling
the control lever or by depressing the
brake pedal or clutch pedal, pushing the
lever up in the ºRES/ACCº direction will
restore the speed set prior to cancellation.
However, once the vehicle speed falls be-
low about 40 km/h (25 mph), the preset
speed will not be resumed.
CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE WARNING
If the ºCRUISEº indicator light in the
instrument cluster flashes when using the
cruise control, press the ºCRUISE
ON´OFFº button to turn the system off and
then press it again to turn it on.
If any of the following conditions then oc-
curs, there is some trouble in the cruise
control system.The indicator light does not come on.
The indicator light flashes again.
The indicator light goes out after it
comes on.
If this is the case, contact your Toyota
dealer and have your vehicle inspected.
