(g) SRS Warning Light
This light will come on when the igni-
tion key is turned to the ºACCº or
ºONº position. After about 6 seconds,
the light will go off. This means the
system of the airbag and front seat belt
pretensioners are operating properly.
The warning light system monitors the air-
bag sensor assembly, front airbag sen-
sors, seat belt pretensioner assemblies,
inflators, warning light, interconnecting wir-
ing and power sources.
If either of the following conditions occurs,
this indicates a malfunction somewhere in
the parts monitored by the warning light
system. Contact your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible to service the vehicle.
The light does not come on when the
ignition key is turned to the ºACCº or
ºONº position or remains on.
The light comes on or flashes while
driving. (h) ºABSº Warning Light
This light warns that there is a problem
somewhere in your anti- lock brake sys-
tem.
If it comes on while you are driving, have
your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal-
er as soon as possible. However, it is
normal if the light goes out.
The light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to the ºONº position. After
a few seconds, the light will go off. There
may be the case that the ºABSº warning
light stays on for about 60 seconds after
the engine is started. It is normal if it
goes out after a while.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the light. It is normal if it
goes off after a few seconds.
When the ºABSº warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
brake system operates conventionally but
anti- lock brake system is not assisting
brake performance so that the wheels can
lock- up during sudden braking or braking
on slippery road surfaces.
However, the anti- lock brake system does
not operate when the rear differential is
locked. It is normal operation for the
ºABSº warning light to be on at this time.
CAUTION
While the ºABSº warning light is on,
if either of the following conditions
occurs, immediately stop your vehicle
at a safe place and contact your
Toyota dealer.
The brake system warning light
stays on even with the parking
brake being released.
The brake system warning light and
buzzer come on.
In either case, the brakes may not
work properly. If they do not work
well, depress the brake pedal firmly.
(i) Open Door Warning Light
This light remains on until all the side
doors and back door are completely
closed.
(j) Unengaged ºParkº Warning Light
This light warns that the transmission
ºParkº mechanism is not engaged. If the
four- wheel drive control is in the ºNº posi-
tion while the selector lever is in the ºPº
position, the transmission will disengage
and the wheels will not lock.

Fuel pump shut- off system
In response to a severe impact which
may cause a large amount of vehicle
deformation, the fuel pump shut- off
system stops supplying fuel to the en-
gine to minimize the risk of fuel leak- age.
The fuel pump shut- off system activates
when the impact detection sensor located
in the footwell of the driver's seat detects
an impact larger than specified.
If the fuel pump shut- off system has acti-
vated, you can turn on the fuel pump
shut- off system with the reset switch on
the impact detection sensor. To turn on
the fuel pump and reset the shut- off
switch, push the reset switch for longer
than one second with the vehicle parked
on a level surface.
CAUTION
Inspect the ground under the ve-
hicle before resetting the fuel pump
shut- off system. If you find liquid
leakage on the ground, it is prob-
able that the fuel system has been
damaged and is in need of repair.
In this case, do not reset the fuel
pump shut- off system.
Do not strike or kick the impact
detection sensor. The fuel pump
shut- off system may activate, shut-
ting off the motor and placing the
vehicle in a position to be involved
in an unexpected accident.
The fuel pump shut- off system is de-
signed to activate in a co llision which may
cause a large amount of vehicle deforma-
tion. It does not operate in a small im-
pact.
