NOTICE
Do not remove the thermostat in
the engine cooling system as this
may cause the engine to overheat.
The thermostat is designed to con-
trol the flow of coolant to keep the
temperature of the engine within
the specified operating range.
Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. See “If your ve-
hicle overheats” on page 274.
Engine oil pressure gauge
Idling
Normal
driving
The engine oil pressure gauge indicates
engine oil pressure when the ignition
switch is on. Check it while driving to
make sure the needle is in the proper
range.
If the engine oil pressure should stay be-
low the normal range, pull off the road to
a safe place and stop the engine immedi-
ately. Call a Toyota dealer or qualified
repair shop for assistance.
Engine oil pressure may not build up
when the engine oil level is too low. The
engine oil pressure gauge is not designed
to indicate oil level, and the engine oil
level must be checked using the level
dipstick.
NOTICE
Do not drive the vehicle with the en-
gine oil pressure below the normal
range until the cause is fixed—it may
ruin the engine.

(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
“START”, the reminder light flashes and
the buzzer sounds if the driver ’s seat belt
is not fastened. Unless the driver fastens
the belt, the light continues flashing and
the buzzer sounds 4 to 8 seconds.
(c) Front Passenger ’s Seat Belt Re- minder Light
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
“START”, the reminder light flashes if a
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) Charging System Warning Light
This warning light comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion, and goes off when the engine is
started.
When there are problems in the charging
system while the engine is r
unning, the
warning light comes on.
NOTICE
When the charging system warning
light comes on while the engine is
running, malfunctions such as the en-
gine drive belt being broken may have
occurred. If the warning light comes
on, immediately stop the vehicle in a
safe place and contact your Toyota
dealer.
(e) Engine Oil Replacement Reminder
Light
This light acts as a reminder to replace
the engine oil.
This light will come on when the ignition
switch is turned to “ON”, and will go off
after about a few seconds. When you drive for about 7200 km (4500
miles) after engine oil replacement, this
light illuminates for about 3 seconds and
then flashes for about 12 seconds with
the ignition key is turned to “ON” position.
If you continue driving without engine oil
replacement, and if the driving range ex-
ceeds 8000 km (5000 miles), the light will
come on after the ignition key is turned
to “ON” position. The light will remain on
thereafter.
If the light is flashing, we recommend that
you replace the engine oil at an early
opportunity depending on the driving and
road condition. If the light comes on, re-
place it as soon as possible.
You need to reset the light after the en-
gine oil replacement. Reset the light by
following the procedure below:
1. Turn the ignition key to the “OFF” posi- tion with the odometer reading shown.
(For details, see “Odometer and trip me-
ter” on page 123).
2. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” posi- tion while holding down the “ODO/
TRIP” knob.
Hold down the knob until the light goes
off. Before the light goes off, it illuminates
for 3 seconds, flashes for 2 seconds, illu-
minates for 1 second.
