“VSC” warning light
This light warns that there is a problem
somewhere in the vehicle stability control
system or the 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.
Tw o −wheel drive models only—The “TRAC
OFF” indicator light will come on when the
“VSC” warning light comes on even if the
“TRAC OFF” switch is not pushed. The tire pressure warning system is de-
signed to provide warning when tire
pressure of any one of the tires is criti-
cally low while the vehicle is moving.
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 pressure regularly. The rec-
ommended cold tire pressure, tire size
and the vehicle capacity weight are on the
tire pressure label. (For instructions, see
“Checking tire inflation pressure” on page
471 in Section 7
−2.)
Installed tires should be of the specified
size. They should be of the same size
and construction. If tires other than 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 or blinks while driving, do
the following.
If the warning light comes on:
Vehicles with standard tires—
Adjust the tire pressure to the specified
level as soon as possible. (See “Tires”
on page 499 in Section 8.)Once the ignition switch is turned off, the
warning light also goes off. If the light
comes on again when the vehicle is
started after adjusting the tire pressure to
the specified level, have the tire pressure
warning system checked at your Toyota
dealer.
If you have a flat tire, replace it with the
spare tire. For details, see “If you have
a flat tire” on page 421 in Section 4.
Vehicles with run flat tires—
Decelerate at a speed below 90 km/h
(55 mph), then adjust the tire pressure
to the specified level as soon as pos-
sible. Do not drive more than 160 km
(100 miles).
When the tire pressure is below 140
kPa (1.4 kgf/cm2 or bar, 20 psi), con-
sult your Toyota dealer. If the tire is
flat or the tire pressure is below 100
kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2 or bar, 15 psi), the
tire must be replaced. Do not use the
repaired tire.
When the tire pressure is 140 kPa (1.4
kgf/cm2 or bar, 20 psi) or more, adjust
it to specified level. (See “Tires” on
page 499 in Section 8.) Once the ignition switch is turned off,
the warning light also goes off. If the
light comes on again when the vehicle
is started after adjusting the tire pres-
sure to the specified level, have the
tire pressure warning system checked
at your Toyota dealer.
For details about the run −flat tires, see
“Run −flat tires” on page 477 in Section
7 −2.
If the warning light blinks once every
second:
The low tire pressure warning system may
be malfunctioning. Contact your Toyota
dealer.
If the warning light blinks twice every
second:
The low tire pressure warning system
needs to be initialized. Reset the system
with the tire pressure warning system re-
set switch. (To reset the system, see
“TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM
RESET SWITCH”.)

TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM
RESET SWITCH
The tire pressure warning system need
to be initialized in the following condi-
tions:
When the low tire pressure warning
light blinks twice every second
After replacing or rotating tires or
wheels
When initializing the system, the pres-
ent tire condition is stored as a stan-
dard. To initialize the system, perform the fol-
lowing:
1. Park the vehicle at a safe place and apply the parking brake. Stop the en-
gine.
2. Adjust the pressure of all the installed tires to the specified level. (See “Tires”
on page 499 in Section 8.)
3. Turn the ignition key to “ON”.
4. Push and hold the reset switch until the low tire pressure warning light
blinks three times.
5. Initialization is completed after driving at the speeds of 30 km/h (19 mph) or
over for about 8 hours total, when the
tire pressure warning system detects
the normal tire pressure.
When initializing the system, make sure
the low tire pressure warning light blinks
three times. If the warning light does not
blink three times, initializing will be failed
and the tire pressure warning system will
not function properly.
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, initialization is not per-
formed.

The cruise control allows you to cruise
the vehicle at a desired speed over 40
km/h (25 mph) even with your foot off
the accelerator pedal.
Your cruising speed can be maintained up
or down grades within the limits of engine
performance, although a slight speed
change may occur when driving up or
down the grades. On steeper hills, a
greater speed change will occur so it is
better to drive without the cruise control.
CAUTION
To help maintain maximum control
of your vehicle, do not use the
cruise control when driving in
heavy or varying traffic, or on slip-
pery (rainy, icy or snow covered) or
winding roads.
Avoid vehicle speed increases when
driving downhill. If the vehicle
speed is too fast in relation to the
cruise control set speed, cancel the
cruise control then downshift the
transmission to use engine braking
to slow down.
TURNING THE SYSTEM ON
To operate the cruise control, press the
“ON−OFF” button. This turns the system
on. The indicator light in the instrument
panel shows that you can now set the
vehicle at a desired cruising speed. Anoth-
er press will turn the system completely
off.
When the ignition is turned off, the system
is also automatically turned off. To use
cruise control again, press the “ON −OFF”
button again to turn it on.
CAUTION
To avoid accidental cruise control en-
gagement, keep the “ON OFF” button
off when not using the cruise control.

TURNING THE SYSTEM ON
To operate dynamic laser cruise control,
press the “ON−OFF” button. This turns the
system on. When the “CRUISE” and
“READY” indicator lights in the instrument
cluster come on, you can now set your
desired cruising speed and vehicle −to −ve-
hicle distance. Pressing the “ON −OFF”
button again will turn the system com-
pletely off.
When the ignition is turned off, the system
is also automatically turned off. To use
dynamic laser cruise control again, press
the “ON −OFF” button again to turn it on. When the ignition is turned off, all the
preset data is cleared. When you use the
dynamic laser cruise control again, you
need to reset the data.
CAUTION
To avoid accidentally engaging the
cruise control, keep the “ON OFF”
button off when not using the dynam-
ic laser cruise control.
SETTING THE DESIRED SPEED
The transmission must be in “D” before
you set the cruise control speed.
Bring your vehicle to the desired speed,
push the lever down in the “
− SET” direc-
tion and release it. This sets the vehicle
at that speed. At this time, the display
indicates settings such as the preset ve-
hicle speed, whether a vehicle is present
ahead and selected vehicle −to −vehicle dis-
tance. If there is no vehicle detected
ahead, the display does not indicate the
vehicle ahead. You can now take your foot
off the accelerator pedal.
