Normal type
XS14021
Extend type
Adjust the mirror so that you can just
see the side of your vehicle in the mir-
ror.
Extend type only—Each mirror is divided
into two and has two different curvatures.
The lower part of the mirror offers a wider
field of vision than the upper part. Dis-
tances will therefore appear to be different
in the lower and upper part of the mirrors.
Be careful when judging the size or dis-
tance of any object seen in the outside
rear view mirror on the passenger ’s side
because it is a convex mirror. Any object
seen in a convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than when seen in a flat
mirror.
On some models, when you push the
outside rear view mirror defogger switch,
the heater panels in the outside rear view
mirrors will quickly clear the mirror
surface. (See “Outside rear view mirror
defogger” on page 177 in Section 1 −5.)
Outside rear view mirrors—

XS17001a
“START”—Starter motor on. The key
will return to the “ON” position when
released.
For starting tips, see page 468 in Section
3.
“ON”—Engine on and all accessories
on.
This is the normal driving position.
“ACC”—Accessories such as the radio
operate, but the engine is off.
If you leave the key in the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position and open the driver’s
door, a buzzer will remind you to remove
the key.“LOCK”—Engine is off and the steering
wheel is locked. The key can be re-
moved only at this position.
You must push in the key to turn the key
from “ACC” to the “LOCK” position. The
selector lever must be put in the “P” posi-
tion before pushing the key.
Vehicles with engine immobilizer system—
Once you remove the key, the engine im-
mobilizer system is automatically set. (See
“Engine immobilizer system” on page 21
in Section 1−
2.)
When starting the engine, the key may
seem stuck at the “LOCK” position. To
free it, first be sure the key is pushed all
the way in, and then rock the steering
wheel slightly while turning the key gently.
Approximately five hours after the engine
is turned off, you may hear sound coming
from underneath the deck for several min-
utes. This is normal operation and does
not indicate a malfunction. (See “Leak
detection pump” on page ix.)
It is not a malfunction if the needles on
all meters and gauges move slightly when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ACC”,
“ON” or “START” position.
NOTICE
Do not leave the key in the “ON”
position if the engine is not running.
The battery will discharge and the
ignition could be damaged.

CAUTION
Do not use the “AUTO LSD” system
in conditions other than the above. A
much greater steering effort and more
careful cornering control will be re-
quired.

To turn on the system, briefly push the
“VSC OFF” switch.
The “AUTO LSD” is activated under the
following condition. At this time, the
“AUTO LSD” and slip indicator lights
will come on.
The driving mode is set in the two−
wheel drive mode (In the four −wheel
drive mode, the system does not
work.)
Driving at a speed under 100 km/h (62
mph)
To turn off the system, briefly push the
“VSC OFF” switch again and the “AUTO
LSD” and slip indicator lights will go off. If the engine is turned off while the
“AUTO LSD” and slip indicator lights are
on and then restarted, the indicator light
will turn off automatically.
When you push and hold the “VSC OFF”
switch for 3 seconds or more with the
vehicle stopped, turn off the vehicle stabil-
ity control system. See “Vehicle stability
control system” on page 248 in this Sec-
tion.

The vehicle stability control system
helps provide integrated control of the
systems such as antilock brake sys-
tem, traction control, engine control,
etc. This system automatically controls
the output of the brakes or engine to
help prevent the vehicle from skidding
when cornering on a slippery road sur-
face or operating steering wheel abrupt-
ly.
The vehicle stability control system is acti-
vated when the vehicle speed is more
than 15 km/h (9 mph).
You may hear a sound in the engine
compartment for a few seconds when the
engine is started or just after the vehicle
begins to move. This means that the sys-
tem is in the self−check mode, but does
not indicate a malfunction.CAUTION
Do not rely excessively on the ve-
hicle stability control system. Even
if the vehicle stability control sys-
tem is operating, you must always
drive carefully and attentively to
avoid serious injury. Reckless driv-
ing will result in an unexpected ac-
cident. If the slip indicator light
blinks and an alarm sounds, special
care should be taken while driving.
Only use tires of specified size. The
size, manufacturer, brand and tread
pattern for all 4 tires should be the
same. If you use the tires other
than specified, or different type or
size, the vehicle stability control
system may not function correctly.
When replacing the tires or wheels,
contact your Toyota dealer. (See
“Checking and replacing tires” on
page 551 in Section 72.)
