(k) SRS 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, front airbag sen-
sors, side airbag sensor, front seat belt
pretensioner assemblies, inflators, warning
light, interconnecting 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. (l) Vehicle Skid Control System/Traction
Control System Warning Light
This light warns that there is a problem
somewhere in the vehicle skid control sys-
tem or traction control system.
The light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to “ON” and will go off after
a few seconds.
If the light comes on while driving, the
system does not work. However, as con-
ventional braking operates when applied,
there is no problem to continue your driv-
ing.
In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer:
The warning light does not come on
after the ignition key is turned to “ON”.
The warning light remains on after the
ignition key is turned to “ON”.
The warning light comes on while driv-
ing. (m) Low Windshield Washer Fluid Level
Warning Light
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 Section 73.)
(n) 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.

The traction control system automatical-
ly helps prevent the spinning of front
wheels when the vehicle is started or
accelerated on slippery road surfaces.
When the ignition key is turned to “ON”,
the system automatically turns on.
CAUTION
Under certain slippery road condi-
tions, full traction of the vehicle and
power against front wheels cannot be
maintained, even though the traction
control system is in operation. Do not
drive the vehicle under any speed or
maneuvering conditions which may
cause the vehicle to lose traction
control. In situations where the road
surface is covered with ice or snow,
your vehicle should be fitted with
snow tires or tire chains. Always
drive at an appropriate and cautious
speed for the present road condi-
tions.
NORMAL DRIVING MODE
Leave the system on during the ordi-
nary driving so that it can operate
when needed.
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 selfcheck mode,
but does not indicate a malfunction. When the traction control system is oper-
ating, the following conditions occur:
The system controls the spinning of the
front wheels. At this time, the slip indi-
cator light blinks.
You may feel vibration or noise in your
vehicle, caused by operation of the
brakes. This indicates the system is
functioning properly.
The slip indicator light comes on for a few
seconds when the ignition key is turned
to “ON”. If the indicator light does not
come on when the ignition is turned on,
contact your Toyota dealer.

In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer:
The warning light does not come on
after the ignition key is turned to “ON”.
The warning light remains on after the
ignition key is turned to “ON”.
The warning light comes on while driv-
ing. The vehicle skid control system helps
provide integrated control of the sys-
tems such as an antilock brake sys-
tem, brake assist system, traction con-
trol, engine control, etc. This system
automatically controls the output of the
brakes or engine to help prevent the
vehicle from skidding when cornering
on a slippery road surface or abrupt
steering wheel operation occurs.
This system activates when the vehicle
speed is about more than 15 km/h (9
mph).
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 system is
in the selfcheck mode but does not indi-
cate a malfunction.
CAUTION
Do not rely excessively on the ve-
hicle skid control system. Even if
the vehicle skid control system is
operating, you must always drive
carefully and attentively to avoid
serious injury. Reckless driving will
result in an unexpected accident. If
the slip indicator light flashes,
sounding an alarm sounds, special
care should be taken while driving.
Only use tires of specified size. The
size, manufacture, 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. (See
“Checking and replacing tires” in
Section 72.)

The tire pressure warning system is de-
signed to provide warning when tire
pressure of any one of the tires is criti-
cally reduced while the vehicle is mov-
ing. The low tire pressure warning light
comes on to inform you that such low
tire pressure may hamper driving.
This system is not designed to operate
when the vehicle is stopped. Therefore,
check the tire pressures regularly. The
recommended cold tire pressures, tire size
and the vehicle capacity weight are on the
tire pressure label. (For instruction, see
“Checking tire pressure” in Section 72.)
Installed tires should be of the specified
size. They should be of the same size
and construction. If tires other than of the
specified size are used, or if tires of dif-
ferent sizes or constructions are mixed,
the tire pressure warning system will not
function properly.
LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT
This light comes on when the ignition key
is turned to the “ON” position. It goes off
after a few seconds. This indicates that
the tire pressure warning system is func-
tioning properly.
If the low tire pressure warning light
comes on while driving, adjust tire
pressure to the specified level. (See
“Tires” in Section 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
tire pressure warning system checked at
your Toyota dealer. The tire pressure warning system does
not function properly under certain cir-
cumstances. In the following cases, the
low tire pressure warning light may not
come on even if the tire pressure is
low, or it may come on when the tire
pressure is actually normal.
The tread wear is uneven among the
installed tires.
A compact spare tire, snow tires, or
tire chains are used.
The tire pressure is excessively higher
than specified, or tire pressure is sud-
denly reduced due to bursts or other
causes.
The vehicle is driven on a slippery
road surface such as rough road and
frozen road.
The vehicle speed is less than 30 km/h
(19 mph) or more than 100 km/h (62
mph), and the driving duration is less
than 5 minutes.

TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM
RESET SWITCH
Pushing this reset switch after replac-
ing or rotating tires or wheels memo-
ries the present tire condition as a
standard.
After replacing or rotating the tires or
wheels, perform the initial adjustment as
follows.
1. Park the vehicle at a safe place and apply the parking brake. Stop the en-
gine.
2. Adjust pressures of all the installed tires to the specified level. (See “Tires”
in Section 8.)
3. Turn the ignition key to “ON”. 4. With the vehicle stopped, push the re-
set switch on the left lower instrument
panel and hold it until the low tire
pressure warning light blinks for three
times.
5. The initial adjustment is completed af- ter driving at the speeds of 30 km/h
(19 mph) or over for about total 8
hours, when the tire pressure warning
system detects the normal tire pressur-
es.
Do not push the reset switch without ad-
justing the tire pressure to the specified
level. Otherwise, the low tire pressure
warning light may not come on even if the
tire pressure is low, or it may come on
when the tire pressure is actually normal.
If you push the reset switch while the
vehicle is moving, the initial adjustment is
not performed.
If the low tire pressure warning light does
not blink when you push and hold the
reset switch, have the low pressure warn-
ing system checked at your Toyota dealer.Ty p e A

When the antilock brake system is ac-
tivated, the following conditions may
occur. They do not indicate a malfunc-
tion of the system:
You may hear the antilock brake sys-
tem operating and feel the brake pedal
pulsating and the vibrations of the ve-
hicle body and steering wheel. You
may also hear the motor sound in the
engine compartment even after the ve-
hicle is stopped.
At the end of the antilock brake sys-
tem activation, the brake pedal may
move a little forward.
CAUTION
Do not overestimate the antilock
brake system: Although the antilock
brake system assists in providing ve-
hicle control, it is still important to
drive with all due care and maintain
a moderate speed and safe distance
from the vehicle in front of you, be-
cause there are limits to the vehicle
stability and effectiveness of steering
wheel operation even with the anti
lock brake system on.
If tires grip performance exceeds its
capability, or if hydroplaning occurs
during high speed driving in the rain,
the antilock brake system does not
provide vehicle control.
Antilock brake system is not de-
signed to shorten the stopping dis-
tance: Always drive at the moderate
speed and maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front of you.
Compared with vehicles without an
antilock brake system, your vehicle
may require a longer stopping dis-
tance in the following cases:
Driving on rough, gravel or snow
covered roads.
Driving with tire chains installed.
Driving over the steps such as the
joints on the road.
Driving on roads where the road
surface is pitted or has other differ-
ences in surface height.
Install all 4 tires of specified size at
appropriate pressure: The antilock
brake system detects vehicle speeds
using the speed sensors for respec-
tive wheels’ turning speeds. The use
of tires other than specified may fail
to detect the accurate turning speed
resulting in a longer stopping dis-
tance.

Determine what kind of tires your ve-
hicle is originally equipped with.
1. Summer tires
Summer tires are highspeed capab ility
tires best suited to highway driving under
dry conditions.
Since summer tires do not have the same
traction performance as snow tires, sum-
mer tires are inadequate for driving on
snowcovered or icy roads. For driving on
snowcovered or icy roads, we recom-
mend using snow tires. If installing snow
tires, be sure to replace all four tires.
2. All season tires
All season tires are designed to provide
better traction in snow and to be adequate
for driving in most winter conditions, as
well as for use all year round.
All season tires, however, do not have
adequate traction performance compared
with snow tires in heavy or loose snow.
Also, all season tires fall short in accel-
eration and handling performance
compared with summer tires in highway
driving.CAUTION
Do not mix summer and all season
tires on your vehicle as this can
cause dangerous handling charac-
teristics, resulting in loss of con-
trol.
Do not use tires other than the
manufacturer ’s designated tires, and
never mix tires or wheels of the
sizes different from the originally
equipped tires and wheels.
