(i) Installing or removing heavy equip-
ment
If you install or remove heavy equipment
exceeding 15 kg (33 lb.), the front torsion
bar should be adjusted. Consult your To-
yota dealer.
(j) Active height control failure warning
If there is a problem somewhere in the
active height control suspension, the nor-
mal mode is automatically selected. If this
occurs, the height control “OFF” indicator
light blinks and the vehicle height control
cannot be activated until the malfunction
is corrected.
Stop the engine and start it again. If the
height control “OFF” indicator light goes
out, the active height control suspension
returns to normal. If the height control
“OFF” indicator blinks again, bring your
vehicle to your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible and have it checked.
This skyhook TEMS adjusts the damp-
ing effect on the shock absorbers with
the damping mode select switch. Select
one of the 4 modes which is suited to
the driving conditions with the damping
mode select switch to provide good rid-
ing comfort and stability.
1. For driving on a bumpy road
2. For ordinary driving such as in the city traffic
3. For moderate high speed driving
4. For sporty type driving such as on winding mountain roads and high speed
driving We recommend you to select the mode 2
for ordinary driving. The damping effect
will be changed automatically to provide
good riding comfort.
When your vehicle is loaded heavily or
you are driving in an unpaved road, the
mode 3 or 4 will be recommended. To
provide good vehicle stability, the damping
effect will be harder than for ordinary driv-
ing mode.
With the four
−wheel drive control lever at
“L”, the damping effect suitable for off −
road driving will be harder in any mode.

To ensure correct audio system op-
erations:
Be careful not to spill beverages
over the audio system.
Do not put anything other than a
cassette tape or Compact Disc into
the slot.
The use of a cellular phone inside
or near the vehicle may cause a
noise from the speakers of the au-
dio system which you are listening
to. However, this does not indicate
a malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
Usually, a problem with radio reception
does not mean there is a problem with
your radio—it is just the normal result of
conditions outside the vehicle.
For example, nearby buildings and terrain
can interfere with FM reception. Power
lines or telephone wires can interfere with
AM signals. And of course, radio signals
have a limited range. The farther you are
from a station, the weaker its signal will
be. In addition, reception conditions
change constantly as your vehicle moves.
