1972007 SEQUOIA from Aug. ’07 Prod. (OM34462U)
In manual control mode, the automatic lev-
eling function is turned off. When the ve-
hicle height is changed because of the
conditions (load etc.), you can adjust the
vehicle height with the height control
switch.
In manual control mode, if the vehicle
speed exceeds 30 km/h (18 mph), auto-
matic control mode is activated and “N” is
selected automatically.
If you attempt to adjust the vehicle height
with anything such as snow, ice, or stones
in contact with the vehicle body, the ve-
hicle height may not change. In this case,
stop the vehicle and remove the obstruc-
tion.
CAUTION
If you drive through water, set the
vehicle height to “HI” with the height
control switch and then change to
manual control mode by pushing the
height control mode select switch. Do
not exceed 30 km/h (18 mph) or “HI”
mode will automatically change to
“N” mode. Do not drive through water
deeper than about 700 mm (28 in.)
even if the vehicle height is in “HI”
mode.
NOTICE
When jacking up or insta lling tire
chains, be sure to set manual con-
trol mode by pushing the height
control mode select switch and stop
the engine. Otherwise, the vehicle
height may change because of the
automatic leveling function, result-
ing in an accident.
 If your vehicle must be towed, set
the vehicle height to “N” in auto-
matic control mode, then select
manual control mode by pushing
the height control mode select
switch. Otherwise, the vehicle
height may change because of the
automatic leveling function, result-
ing in an accident.
 If your vehicle gets stuck in a
ditch, set manual control mode with
the height control mode select
switch. Otherwise, the vehicle
height may change because of the
automatic leveling function, result-
ing in an accident.

(b) Vehicle height adjustment
To change the vehicle height in manual
mode, push the height control switch
on either side of “ ” (higher) or “”
(lower).
A higher vehicle height is suitable when
driving on bumpy roads and through water.
A lower vehicle height allows for easy
access to the vehicle (getting in and out)
and easy loading and unloading.
When you are driving on bumpy roads,
which may cause the suspension to fully
elongate, the rear height control air sus-
pension may not operate.

1982007 SEQUOIA from Aug. ’07 Prod. (OM34462U)
To raise the vehicle height—
Push the “” side of the switch for two
seconds or more. Each time you push the
switch, the vehicle height increases. When
the vehicle height is about 20 mm (0.8
in.) higher than the standard height, the
“HI” indicator light comes on.
The maximum selectable height is about
40 mm (1.6 in.) higher than the standard
height.
To lower the vehicle height—
Push the “ ” side of the switch. Each
time you push the switch, the vehicle
height decreases.
Tw o −wheel drive models—
When the vehicle height is about 7.5 mm
(0.3 in.) lower than the standard height,
the “LO” indicator light comes on.
The minimum selectable height is about
15 mm (0.6 in.) lower than the standard
height.
Four −wheel drive models—
When the vehicle height is about 15 mm
(0.6 in.) lower than the standard height,
the “LO” indicator light comes on.
The minimum selectable height is about
30 mm (1.2 in.) lower than the standard
height. If the underbody of the vehicle has
touched the surface on bumpy roads, the
vehicle height cannot be lowered with the
height control switch.
When adjusting the vehicle height with
one or more doors open, make sure that
there is nothing that might come into con-
tact with the vehicle body or around the
doors.
If the vehicle height is adjusted on the
slope, or with the selector lever in a posi-
tion other than “P” or “N” while the vehicle
is stopped, you may hear a sound caused
by the expansion and contraction of the
propeller shaft. This does not indicate a
malfunction.
CAUTION
The higher vehicle height should be
only set for severe offroad driving
conditions. Because the vehicle’s cen-
ter of gravity is higher in this setting,
the vehicle may become unstable
when turning abruptly, resulting in an
accident.
NOTICE

When lowering the vehicle, the ve-
hicle must be stopped. Otherwise,
when the vehicle speed exceeds 30
km/h (18 mph), automatic control
mode is activated and “N” is se-
lected automatically. Proper caution
should be taken in places where the
overhead height is limited.
 If the vehicle height is changed fre-
quently when the vehicle is heavily
loaded, the compressor may over-
heat, causing the vehicle height ad-
justment operation to stop.
 Before you lower the vehicle height
with the height control switch,
check under the vehicle to make
sure nothing to damage the vehicle
or no one to be injured is there and
that the underbody of the vehicle
does not touch the ground.
 After unloading, the height of a ve-
hicle equipped with the rear height
control air suspension becomes
slightly higher than the normal ve-
hicle height. Take sufficient care
where the overhead height is re-
stricted.

Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS (tire pressure warning
system) malfunction indicator to indi-
cate when the system is not operat-
ing properly. The TPMS (tire pressure
warning system) malfunction indicator
is combined with the low tire pres-
sure telltale (tire pressure warning
light). When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subse-
quent vehicle startups as long as
the malfunction exists. When the mal-
function indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended.TPMS (tire pressure warning system)
malfunction may occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation
of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS (tire pressure warning sys-
tem) from functioning properly. Al-
ways check the TPMS (tire pressure
warning system) malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that
the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS (tire pressure
warning system) to continue to func-
tion properly.
NOTICE
Do not use liquid sealants for a flat
tire as tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter will be damaged.
 When the tires must be repaired or
replaced, have them repaired or re-
placed by the nearest Toyota dealer
or an authorized tire dealer. The
tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters will be affected by the
installation or removal of tires.
u16032
IF THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING
LIGHT COMES ON AFTER BLINKING
FOR 1 MINUTE...
If the tire pressure warning light comes
on after blinking for 1 minute when the
ignition key is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion, the tire pressure warning system
is not working properly.
The system will be disabled in the follow-
ing conditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the
system will work properly.)
If tires not equipped with tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters are
used.

CARING FOR YOUR CASSETTE PLAYER
AND TAPES
For the best performance for your cas-
sette player and tapes:
Clean the tape head and other parts regu-
larly.
A dirty tape head or tape path can
decrease sound quality and tangle your
cassette tapes. The easiest way to
clean them is by using a cleaning tape.
(A wet type is recommended.)
Use high −quality cassettes.
Low −quality cassette tapes can cause
many problems, including poor sound,
inconsistent playing speed, and
constant auto− reversing. They can also
get stuck or tangled in the cassette
player.
Do not use a cassette if it has been
damaged or tangled or if its label is
peeling off.
Do not leave a cassette in the player
if you are not listening to it, especially
if it is hot outside.
Store cassettes in their cases and out
of direct sunlight.
Avoid using cassettes with a total play-
ing time longer than 100 minutes (50
minutes per side). The tape used in
these cassettes is thin and could get
stuck or tangled in the cassette player.
CARING FOR YOUR COMPACT DISC
PLAYER, DVD PLAYER AND DISCS
Your compact disc player and DVD
player are intended for use with 12 cm
(4.7 in.) discs only.
Extremely high temperatures can keep
your compact disc player and DVD
player from working. On hot days, use
the air conditioning to cool the vehicle
interior before you use the players.
Bumpy roads or other vibrations may
make your compact disc player and
DVD player skip.
If moisture gets into your compact disc
player and DVD player, the players
may not play even though they appear
to be working. Remove the disc from
the player and wait until it dries.
CAUTION
Compact disc players and DVD play-
ers use an invisible laser beam which
could cause hazardous radiation ex-
posure if directed outside the unit. Be
sure to operate the players correctly.

system.
To prevent fogging up of the windshield,
the air intake mode may change automati-
cally to FRESH depending on the condi-
tion of the air conditioning system.
For example, when the ambient tempera-
ture is low, the air intake mode may
change automatically to FRESH. This is
not a malfunction. When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, the air intake mode is al-
ways set to FRESH even if the previous
mode was RECIRCULATE.

To turn on the air conditioning, press the
“A/C” button. The “A/C” button indicator
will come on. To turn the air conditioning
off, press the button again.
If the “A/C” button indicator flashes, there
is a problem in the air conditioning system
and the air conditioning automatically
shuts off. If this happens, take your ve-
hicle to a Toyota dealer for service.
