When the brake fluid level is low...
CAUTION
It is dangerous to continue driving
normally when the brake fluid level is
low.

parking brake is applied when the ignition
key is in the “ON” position.
CAUTION
If the light does not turn off even
after the parking brake is released
while the engine is running, immedi-
ately stop your vehicle at a safe
place and contact your Toyota dealer.
In this case, the brakes may not work
properly and your stopping distance
will become longer. Depress the brake
pedal firmly and bring the vehicle to
an immediate stop.
(b) Driver’s Seat Belt Reminder Lightand Buzzer
The light and buzzer act as a reminder to
buckle up the driver’s seat belt.
Once the ignition key is turned to “ON” or

buzzer sounds if the driver ’s seat belt is
not fastened. Unless the driver fastens the
belt, the light continues flashing and the
buzzer stops after about 4 to 8 seconds.

The light acts as a reminder to have the
front passenger buckle up the seat belt. Once the ignition key is turned to “ON” or

passenger sits in the front passenger seat
and does not fasten the seat belt. Unless
the front passenger fastens the belt, the
light continues flashing.
If luggage or other load is placed on the
front passenger seat, depending on its
weight and how it is placed on the seat,
built
−in sensors in the seat cushion may
detect the pressure, causing the reminder
light to flash.
(d) Discharge Warning Light
This light warns that the battery is being
discharged.
If it comes on while you are driving, there
is a problem somewhere in the charging
system.

ate, however, until the battery is dis-
charged. Turn off the air conditioning,
blower, radio, etc., and drive directly to
the nearest Toyota dealer or repair shop.

(e) Malfunction Indicator Lamp
This lamp comes on when the ignition
key is turned to the “ON” position and
goes off after the engine starts. This
means that the warning light system is
operating properly.
If the lamp remains on, first check the
followings.

Empty fuel tank
If the fuel tank is empty, refuel immedi-
ately.

Loose fuel tank cap
If the fuel tank cap is loose, securely
tighten it.
These cases are temporary malfunctions.
The malfunction indicator lamp will go off
after taking several driving trips.
If the lamp does not go off even after
several trips... or

matic transmission electrical system or
warning light system itself.
Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible to service the vehicle. Emissions Inspection and Maintenance
(I/M) programs
Your vehicle may not pass a state emis-
sion inspection if the malfunction indicator
lamp remains on. Contact your Toyota
dealer to check your vehicle’s emission
control system and OBD (On

nostics) system before taking your vehicle
for the inspection.

maintenance (I/M) programs” in Section 6.
(f) Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This light flashes when the fuel level in
the tank becomes nearly empty. Fill up
the tank as soon as possible.

ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel level
warning light may flash earlier than usual.
(g) Low Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light warns that the engine oil pres-
sure is too low.
If it flickers or stays on while you are
driving, pull off the road to a safe place
and stop the engine immediately. Call a
Toyota dealer or qualified repair shop for
assistance. The light may occasionally flicker when
the engine is idling or it may come on
briefly after a hard stop. There is no
cause for concern if it then goes out when
the engine is accelerated slightly.
The light may come on when the oil level
is extremely low. It is not designed to
indicate low oil level, and the oil level
must be checked using the level dipstick.

warning light on—even for one block.
It may ruin the engine.
(h) “ABS” Warning Light

after, if the system malfunctions, the light
comes on again.

Air flow selector settingsOperating tips

To cool off your Toyota after it has
been parked in the hot sun, drive with
the windows open for a few minutes.
This vents the hot air, allowing the air
conditioning to cool the interior more
quickly.

Make sure the air intake grilles in front
of the windshield are not blocked (by
leaves or snow, for example).

On humid days, do not blow cold air
on the windshield. The windshield could
fog up because of the difference in air
temperature on the inside and outside
of the windshield.

Keep the area under the front seats
clear to allow air to circulate through-
out the vehicle.

On cold days, set the fan speed to
“high” for a minute to help clear the
intake ducts of snow or moisture. This
can reduce the amount of fogging on
the windows.
