Traction control system
Slip indicator light
“TRAC OFF” indicator/warning light
“VSC” warning light
AUTOMATIC TRACTION CONTROL
SYSTEM
The traction control system automatical-
ly helps control the spinning of the
front wheels which may occur when ac-
celerating on slippery road surfaces,
thus assisting driver to control the driv-
ing power of the front wheels.
When you turn the ignition switch on,
the traction control system always
turns on automatically, and the slip in-
dicator light and “TRAC OFF” indicator/
warning light will come on. The indica-
tor lights will go off after a few
seconds.Leave the system on during ordinary
driving so that it can operate when
needed. When traction control is ap-
plied, the slip indicator light blinks.
While the “TRAC OFF” indicator/warning
light and “VSC” warning light come on, the
traction control system cannot be oper-
ated.
You may hear a sound in the engine
compartment for a few seconds when the
engine is started or just after the vehicle
is started. This means that the traction
control system is in the self−check mode,
and does not indicate malfunction.
When the traction control system is oper-
ating, you may feel vibration or noise of
your vehicle, caused by operation of the
brakes. This indicates the system is func-
tioning properly.
When getting the vehicle out of mud or
new snow, etc. the traction control system
will help operate to prevent the wheels
from spinning.

when the vehicle speed is about more
than 15 km/h (9 mph).
While the “VSC” warning light and “TRAC
OFF” indicator/warning light come on, the
vehicle skid control system cannot be op-
erated.
You may hear a sound in the engine
compartment for a few seconds when the
engine is started or just after the vehicle
is started. This means that the vehicle
skid control is in the self−check mode and
does not indicate a malfunction.CAUTION
Do not rely excessively on the ve-
hicle skid control system. Even if
the vehicle skid control system is
operating, it is not that your vehicle
is absolutely safe. Reckless driving
will result in an unexpected acci-
dent. Always keep safety driving in
mind. If the slip indicator light fla-
shes and/or an alarm sounds, spe-
cial care should be taken while
driving.
Only use tires of specified size. The
size, manufacturer, brand and tread
pattern for all 4 tires should be the
same. If you use the tires other
than specified, or different type or
size, the vehicle skid control sys-
tem may not function correctly.
When replacing the tires or wheels,
contact your Toyota dealer.

OFF” indicator/warning light come on, the
vehicle skid control system does not work.

when applied, there is no problem to con-
tinue your driving.

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 and “TRAC
OFF” indicator/warning light do not
come on after the ignition is turned to
