Do not put any part of your body
under the vehicle supported by the
jack. Personal injury may occur.

Do not start or run the engine while
your vehicle is supported by the
jack.

Stop the vehicle on a level firm
ground, firmly set the parking brake
and put the transmission in Pº
(automatic) or reverse (manual).
Block the wheel diagonally opposite
to the one being changed if neces-
sary.

Make sure to set the jack properly
in the jack point. Raising the ve-
hicle with jack improperly posi-
tioned will damage the vehicle or
may allow the vehicle to fall off the
jack and cause personal injury.

Never get under the vehicle when
the vehicle is supported by the jack
alone.

Use the jack only for lifting your
vehicle during wheel changing.

Do not raise the vehicle with some-
one in the vehicle.

When raising the vehicle, do not
put an object on or under the jack.

Raise the vehicle only high enough
to remove and change the tire.
NOTICE
Do not continue driving with a de-
flated tire. Driving even a short dis-
tance can damage a tire beyond re-
pair.Compact spare tire
The compact spare tire is designed for
temporary emergency use only.
The compact spare tire is identified by the
distinctive wording TEMPORARY USE
ONLYº molded into the side wall of the
tire.
The standard tire should be repaired and
replaced as soon as possible.
The compact spare tire saves space in
your luggage compartment, and its lighter
weight helps to improve fuel economy and
permits easier installation in case of a flat
tire.

SETTING THE SYSTEM
1. Turn the ignition key to the LOCKº
position and remove it.
2. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle.
3. Close and lock all the doors, trunk and
hood.
The indicator light will come on when all
the doors, trunk and hood are closed and
locked.As the doors are locked, the system will
give you a preparation time of 30 seconds
before the setting, during which the doors,
trunk and hood may be opened.
Be careful not to unlock any door with the
key during setting. This will cancel the
system.
4. After making sure the indicator light
starts flashing, you may leave the ve-
hicle.
The system will automatically be set after
the preparation time passes. The indicator
light will flash to show the system is set.
If any of the doors, trunk or hood is open
at that time, the setting is interrupted until
it is closed and locked.
Never leave anyone in the vehicle when
you set the system, because unlocking
from the inside will activate the system.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

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 reconnected

Stopping the alarm
Turn the ignition key from the LOCKº to
ONº 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. 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 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.
OFFÐThe system is inactive. You may
open any door, trunk and hood.TESTING THE SYSTEM
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the system as described above.
The doors should be locked with the
key. Be sure to wait until the indicator
light starts flashing.
3. Unlock any door from the inside. The
system should activate the alarm.
4. Cancel the system by unlocking any of
the doors with the key.
5. Repeat this operation for the other
doors, trunk and hood. When testing on
the hood, also check that the system
is activated when the battery terminal
is disconnected and then reconnected.

This light comes on in the following cases
when the ignition key is turned on.

When the parking brake is applied...

When the brake fluid level is low...
Have your vehicle checked at your
Toyota dealer in the following cases:

The light does not come on even if the

(b) Normal driving
1. Start the engine as instructed in How
to start the engineº in Section 3. The
transmission must be in Pº or Nº.
2. With your foot holding down the brake
pedal, shift the selector lever to Dº.
When the lever is in the Dº position, the
automatic transmission system will select
the most suitable gear for running condi-
tions such as normal cruising, hill climb-
ing, hard towing, etc.
CAUTION
Never put your foot on the accelera-
tor pedal while shifting.
3. Release the parking brake and brake
pedal. Depress the accelerator pedal
slowly for smooth starting.
(c) Using engine braking
To use engine braking, you can downshift
the transmission as follows:
Shift into the 2º position when the
vehicle speed is lower than 110 km/h
(68 mph). The transmission will down-
shift to the second gear and stronger
engine braking will be enabled.
Shift into the Lº position when the
vehicle speed is lower than 49 km/h
(30 mph). The transmission will down-
shift to the first gear and maximum
engine braking will be enabled.
CAUTION
Be careful when downshifting on a
slippery surface. Abrupt shifting
could cause the vehicle to spin or
skid.
(d) Using 2º and Lº position
The 2º and Lº positions are used for
strong engine braking as described pre-
viously.
With the selector lever in 2º or Lº, you
can start the vehicle in motion as with the
lever in Dº.
With the selector lever in 2º, the vehicle
will start in the first gear and automatical-
ly shift to second gear.
With the selector lever in Lº, the trans-
mission is engaged in first gear.
NOTICE

Be careful not to overrev the en-
gine. Watch the tachometer to keep
engine rpm from going into the red
zone. The approximate maximum al-
lowable speed for each position is
given below for your reference:
2º 131 km/h (81 mph). . . . . . . . . . .
Lº 72 km/h (44 mph). . . . . . . . . . .

Do not continue hill climbing or
hard towing for a long time in the
2º or Lº position. This may cause
severe automatic transmission dam-
age from overheating. To prevent
such damage, Dº position should
be used in hill climbing or hard
towing.
(e) Backing up
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
2. With the brake pedal held down with
your foot, shift the selector lever to the
Rº position.

the overdrive should be turned off. Be
sure to turn the switch on immediately
afterward.
When towing a trailer, in order to main-
tain engine braking efficiency, do not
use overdrive.
