RECALLING THE MEMORIZED POSITION
When you push button ª1º or ª2º, a
beep will sound and the driving posi-
tion will be automatically adjusted to
the position recorded for that button.
The memorized position can be recalled
under the following conditions:

The ignition key is in the ªON position
and the shift lever is in the ªPº posi-
tion.

The key is not in the ignition switch
and less than 30 seconds have passed
since opening the driver 's door.To stop the operation, push any driving
position memory button.
To reactivate the system, push the button
ª1º or ª2º again.
If the vehicle's battery is disconnected,
the memory will be erased and the posi-
tions will have to be set again.
CAUTION

Do not start the vehicle while the
adjustment are being made.

Take care not to select the wrong
button, or the seat could strike the
rear passenger or hit your body
against the steering wheel. If this
happens, you can stop the move-
ment by pressing another driving
position memory switch, or de-
pressing the brake pedal.
Toyota strongly urges that the driver and
passengers in the vehicle be properly re-
strained at all times with the seat belts
provided. Failure to do so could increase
the chance of injury and/or the severity of
injury in accidents.
The seat belts provided for your vehicle
are designed for people of adult size,
large enough to properly wear them.
Child. Use a child restraint system ap-
propriate for the child until the child be-
comes large enough to properly wear the
vehicle's seat belts. See ªChild restraintº
on page 107 in this Section for details.
If a child is too large for a child restraint
system, the child should sit in the rear
seat and must be restrained using the
vehicle's seat belt. According to accident
statistics, the child is safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in the
front seat.
If a child must sit in the front seat, the
seat belts should be worn properly. If an
accident occurs and the seat belts are not
worn properly, the force of the rapid infla-
tion of the airbag may cause death or
serious injury to the child.

(a) Brake System Warning Light
This light comes on in the following cases
when the ignition key is in the ªONº posi-
tion.

When the parking brake is applied...
This light comes on for a few seconds
when the ignition key is turned to the
ªONº position even after the parking brake
is released.

CAUTION

normally when the brake fluid level is
low.

Toyota dealer in the following cases:

The light does not come on even if the
parking brake is applied when the igni-
tion key is in the ªONº position.

The light does not come on even if the
ignition key is turned on with the park-
ing brake released.
A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
If either of the following conditions
occurs, immediately stop your vehicle
at a safe place and contact your
Toyota dealer.

The light does not turn off even
after the parking brake is released
while the engine is running.
