cases.
a. The fuel tank is completely empty. (See
”Fuel gauge” in Chapter 1−5 for instruc-
tions.)
b. The fuel tank cap is not tightened se-
curely. (See ”Fuel tank cap” in Chapter
1−2 for instructions.)
c. There is a problem somewhere in your
engine or automatic transmission electrical
system.
If it comes on while you are driving in
case c, have your vehicle checked/re-
paired by your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible.
(f) Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This light comes on when the fuel level
in the tank becomes nearly empty. Fill up
the tank as soon as possible.

ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than
usual.(g) Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light warns that the engine oil pres-
sure is too low.
If it flickers or stays on while you are
driving, pull off the road to a safe place
and stop the engine immediately. Call a
Toyota dealer or qualified repair shop for
assistance.
The light may occasionally flicker when
the engine is idling or it may come on
briefly after a hard stop. There is no
cause for concern if it then goes out when
the engine is accelerated slightly.
The light may come on when the oil level
is extremely low. It is not designed to
indicate low oil level, and the oil level
must be checked using the level dipstick.
NOTICE
Do not drive the vehicle with the
warning light on—even for one block.
It may ruin the engine.

tem.

ing, have your vehicle checked by your

key is turned to the ”ON” position. After
a few seconds, the light will go off.
When the ”ABS” warning light is on (and

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.

and back door are completely closed.
When the ignition switch is ”OFF” and this
light stays lighting on, the light will turn off

door is not completely closed with the

by hand when the ignition key is in the
”ON” position, the open power sliding door
warning light may stay on. In this case,
try opening and closing the power sliding
door again by hand slowly, or use one of
the ”PWR DOOR” switches or wireless
remote control transmitter.

sliding door is opened or in the process

tem on, a buzzer will sound and the open
power sliding door warning light will flash.

not completely closed.(k) SRS Airbag Warning Light
This light will come on when the igni-
tion key is turned to the ”ACC” or
”ON” 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, seat belt pretension-
er assembly, inflators, warning light, inter-
connecting wiring 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 ”ACC” or
”ON” position or remains on.
The light comes on or flashes while
driving.

The light warns that the windshield washer
fluid level is too low. Add washer fluid at
your earliest opportunity. (For instructions,
see ”Adding washer fluid” in Chapter 7−3.)(m) Low Tire Pressure Warning Light
This light warns that the tire pressure of any
one of the tires is critically reduced. The light
comes on when the ignition key is turned to
the ”ON” position. It goes off after a few
seconds. This indicates that the low tire pres-
sure warning system is functioning properly.
If the light comes on while driving, adjust tire
pressure to the specified level. (See ”Tires”
in Part 8.) After the tire pressure is adjusted,
the light should go off after driving at about
more than 30 km/h (19 mph) for some time.
If the light still remains, have the low tire
pressure warning system checked at your
Toyota dealer.

key when you open the driver’s door with
the ignition key in the ”ACC” or ”LOCK”
