The light warns that when there is a prob-
lem somewhere in the vehicle skid control
system or traction control system.
The light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to “ON”, and will go off after
about a few seconds. This means that the
system is operating properly.
If the “VSC” warning light comes on, the
vehicle skid control system and traction
control system do not work. However, as
conventional braking operates when ap-
plied, there is no problem to continue your
driving.
If any of the following conditions occur,
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 “VSC” warning light does not come
on after the ignition is turned to on.
The “VSC” warning light is left on after

lem somewhere in the vehicle skid control
system or traction control system.
The light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to “ON”, and will go off after
about a few seconds. This means that the
system is operating properly.
If the “TRAC OFF” indicator light comes
on, the traction control system does not
work. However, as conventional braking
operates when applied, there is no prob-
lem to continue your driving.
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 “TRAC OFF” indicator/warning light
does not come on after the ignition is
turned to on.

(o) 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 pressure warning system is
functioning properly.
If the light comes on while driving, adjust
tire pressure to the specified level. (See
“Tires” in Section 8.) After the tire pres-
sure 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 warn-
ing system checked at your Toyota dealer.

Do not drive in excess of the speed
limit. Even if the legal speed limit
permits it, do not drive over 140
km/h (85 mph) unless your vehicle
has high−speed capability tires.
Driving over 140 km/h (85 mph) may
result in tire failure, loss of control
and possible injury. Be sure to con-
sult a tire dealer to determine
whether the tires on your vehicle
are high−speed capability tires or
not before driving at such speeds.
Do not continue normal driving
when the brakes are wet. If they are
wet, your vehicle will require a
longer stopping distance, and it
may pull to one side when the
brakes are applied. Also, the park-
ing brake will not hold the vehicle
securely.
Winter driving tips
Make sure you have a proper freeze
protection of engine coolant.
Your coolant must contain ethylene−glycol
type coolant for a proper corrosion
protection of aluminum components. Use
“TOYOTA Long Life Coolant” or equivalent.
See Section 7−2 for details about coolant
type selection.
NOTICE
Do not use alcohol type antifreeze or
plain water alone.
When it is extremely cold, we recommend
to use 60% solution for your Toyota, to
provide protection down to about −50C
(−58F). Do not use more than 70% solu-
tion for better coolant performance.
Check the condition of the battery and
cables.
Cold temperatures reduce the capacity of
any battery, so it must be in top shape
to provide enough power for winter start-
ing. Section 7−3 tells you how to visually
inspect the battery. Your Toyota dealer
and most service stations will be pleased
to check the level of charge.Make sure the engine oil viscosity is
suitable for the cold weather.
See Section 7−2 for recommended viscos-
ity. Leaving a heavy summer oil in your
vehicle during winter months may cause
harder starting. If you are not sure about
which oil to use, call your Toyota deal-
er—he will be pleased to help.
Keep the door locks from freezing.
Squirt lock de−icer or glycerine into the
locks to keep them from freezing.
Use a washer fluid containing an anti-
freeze solution.
This product is available at your Toyota
dealer and most auto parts stores. Follow
the manufacturer ’s directions for how
much to mix with water.
NOTICE
Do not use engine antifreeze or any
other substitute because it may dam-
age your vehicle’s paint.
