(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.
The engine ignition will continue to oper-
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.
NOTICE
Do not continue driving if the engine
drive belt is broken or loose.
(e) Low Engine Oil Pressure WarningLight
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.
NOTICE
Do not drive the vehicle with the
warning light on—even for one block.
It may ruin the engine.
(f) 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, or the lamp
comes on while driving, 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, contact your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible.
If the fuel tank is not empty or the fuel
tank cap is not loose...
There is a problem somewhere in the
engine, emission control system, elec-
tronic throttle control system, automatic
transmission electrical system or warn-
ing light system itself.
Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible to service the vehicle.
2ZZ −GE engine—
If engine speed does not increase when
the accelerator pedal is depressed, there
may be a problem somewhere in the elec-
tronic throttle control system.
At this time, vibration may occur. Howev-
er, if you depress the accelerator pedal
more firmly and slowly, you can drive your
vehicle at low speeds. Have your vehicle
checked by your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible.

Recommended shifting speeds
For the best compromise between fuel
economy and vehicle performance, you
should upshift or downshift at approxi-
mately the following speeds:gear km/h (mph)
1 to 2 or 2 to 1 24 (15)
2 to 3 or 3 to 2 40 (25)
3 to 4 or 4 to 3 65 (40)
Downshift to the appropriate gear if accel-
eration is needed when you are cruising
below the above downshifting speeds.
Upshifting too soon or downshifting too
late will cause lugging, and possibly ping-
ing. Regularly revving the engine to maxi-
mum speed in each gear will cause ex-
cessive engine wear and high fuel
consumption.
NOTICE
Be careful not to overrev the engine.
Watch the tachometer to keep engine
rpm from going into the red zone.
The approximate maximum allowable
speed for each position is given be-
low for your reference: “2” 125 km/h (77 mph) . . . . . . . . . . . .
“1” 70 km/h (43 mph) . . . . . . . . . . . . .
If the M mode indicator light flashes...
Put the selector lever in the “D” position
and drive for a short time.
If the M mode indicator light stops flash-
ing but remains on after the selector lever
is returned to the “M” position, you can
drive in M mode.
If the M mode indicator light still flashes,
there is a problem somewhere in the sys-
tem. Put the selector lever in the “D”
position. Consult with your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible.
The M mode indicator light flashes under
the following conditions:
The temperature of the automatic trans-
mission oil is low. The transmission
works exactly in the same way as
when you put the selector lever in the
“D” position.
The temperature of the automatic trans-
mission oil is high. You can still oper-
ate the transmission shift switches.
There is a problem somewhere in the
system. (e) Using engine braking
To use engine braking, you can downshift
the transmission as follows:
When you are driving in the “D” posi-
tion, push the overdrive switch. The
“O/D OFF” indicator light will come on
and the transmission will downshift to
third gear, and engine braking will be
obtained. When you are driving in
fourth gear (“M” position), push the
transmission downshift switch to select
the “3” position. The transmission will
downshift to third gear and engine
braking will be obtained.
Shift the selector lever into the “2”
position or push the transmission shift
switch to the “2” position in M mode.
The transmission will downshift to sec-
ond gear when the vehicle speed drops
down to or lower than 112 km/h (69
mph), and stronger engine braking will
be enabled.
Shift the selector lever into the “L”
position or push the transmission shift
switch to the “1” position in M mode.
The transmission will downshift to first
gear when the vehicle speed drops
down to or lower than 52 km/h (32
mph), and maximum engine braking will
be enabled.

TONE AND BALANCE
For details about your system’s tone and
balance controls, see the description of
your own system.
Tone
How good an audio program sounds to
you is largely determined by the mix of
the treble, midrange (type 3) and bass
levels. In fact, different kinds of music
and vocal programs usually sound better
with different mixes of treble, midrange
and bass.
Balance
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound
levels is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to
a stereo recording or broadcast, changing
the right/left balance will increase the vol-
ume of one group of sounds while de-
creasing the volume of another.YOUR RADIO ANTENNA

To lower the power antenna, turn off the
audio system by pushing “PWR·VOL”, or
turn the ignition key to “LOCK”.
The antenna automatically retracts when
the radio mode is switched off to turn on
the cassette tape player or compact disc
player.

make sure it is retracted or re-
moved before driving your Toyota
