key is turned to the “ON” position and

comes on while driving, first check the
followings.
Empty fuel tank
If the fuel tank is empty, refuel immedi-
ately.
Loose fuel tank cap
If the fuel tank cap is loose, securely
tighten it.
These cases are temporary malfunctions.
The malfunction indicator lamp will go off
after taking several driving trips. If the lamp does not go off even after
several trips, contact your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible.
If the fuel tank is not empty or the fuel
tank cap is not loose...

tronic throttle control system, automatic
transmission electrical system or warn-
ing light system itself.
Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible to service the vehicle.
If engine speed does not increase when
the accelerator pedal is depressed, there
may be a problem somewhere in the elec-
tronic throttle control system.
At this time, vibration may occur. Howev-
er, if you depress the accelerator pedal
more firmly and slowly, you can drive your
vehicle at low speeds. Have your vehicle
checked by your Toyota dealer as soon as

recovered until the engine is stopped and

neous pedal operation.
Emissions Inspection and Maintenance
(I/M) programs
Your vehicle may not pass a state emis-
sion inspection if the malfunction indicator
lamp remains on. Contact your Toyota
dealer to check your vehicle’s emission
control system and OBD (On−Board Diag-
nostics) system before taking your vehicle
for the inspection.
For details, see “Emissions Inspection and
Maintenance (I/M) programs” on page 260
in Section 6.
(f) Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This light flashes when the fuel level in
the tank becomes nearly empty. Fill up

On inclines or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel level
warning light may flash earlier than usual.
(g) Low Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light warns that the engine oil pres-
sure is too low. If it flickers or stays on while you are
driving, pull off the road to a safe place
and stop the engine immediately. Call a
Toyota dealer or qualified repair shop for
assistance.

the engine is idling or it may come on
briefly after a hard stop. There is no
cause for concern if it then goes out when
the engine is accelerated slightly.
The light may come on when the oil level
is extremely low. It is not designed to

comes on again. When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti
−lock brake system does not operate,
but the brake system still operates con-
ventionally.

the brake system warning light is off), the
anti −lock brake system does not operate
so that the wheels could lock up during
a sudden braking or braking on slippery
road surfaces.

occurs, this indicates a malfunction
somewhere in the parts monitored by
the warning light system. Contact your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible to
service the vehicle.

ignition key is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion or remains on for more than 6

ing.

operation does not indicate a problem.

together with the brake system
warning light, immediately stop your

brake system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely unsta-
ble during braking.

doors and back door are completely
closed.
(j) Electric Power Steering SystemWarning Light

is turned to the “ON” position. If the elec-
tric power steering system warning light

light system. Contact your Toyota deal-
er as soon as possible to service the

cate malfunction. To turn off the light, re-
start the engine and start driving.

required for the steering wheel to
turn than usual. Drive your vehicle
while firmly gripping the steering
wheel.
(k) SRS Warning Light

tion key is turned to the “ON” position.

off. This means the system of the air-
bags and front seat belt pretensioners
are operating properly.

bag sensor assembly, front airbag sen-
sors, side and curtain shield airbag sen-
sors, curtain shield airbag sensors,
driver ’s seat position sensor, driver ’s seat

pant classification system, “AIRBAG ON”
indicator light, “AIRBAG OFF” indicator
light, front passenger ’s seat belt buckle
switch, seat belt pretensioner assemblies,
inflators, interconnecting wiring and power
sources.
If either of the following conditions occurs,
this indicates a malfunction somewhere in
the parts monitored by the warning light
system. Contact your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible to service the vehicle.
The light does not come on when the
ignition key is turned to the “ON” posi-

(l) Low Windshield Washer Fluid LevelWarning Light
The light warns that the windshield washer
fluid level is too low. Add washer fluid at
your earliest opportunity. (For instructions,
see “Adding washer fluid” on page 288 in
Section 7 −3.)
(m) Engine Oil Replacement Reminder Light (Except for Canada)
This light acts as a reminder to replace
the engine oil.
This light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to “ON” and will go off after
about a few seconds.
When you drive for about 7200 km (4500
miles) after the engine oil replacement,
this light illuminates for about 3 seconds
and then flashes for about 12 seconds
with the ignition key turned to the “ON”
position. If you continue driving without
replacing the engine oil, and if the
distance driven exceeds 8000 km (5000
miles), the light will come on. 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 conditions. If the light comes on,
replace it as soon as possible.
The system must be reset after the
engine oil replacement. Reset the system
by the following procedure:
1. Turn the ignition key to the “OFF” posi- tion with the trip A reading shown. (For
details, see “Odometer and two trip
meters” on page 112 in this Section.)
2. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” posi- tion while holding down the trip meter
reset knob.
Hold down the knob for at least 5
seconds. The indicator light flashes and
the bars displayed in the odometer
disappear gradually. The odometer
indicates “000000” and the light goes off.
If the system fails to reset, the light will
continue flashing.
(n) High Engine Coolant Temperature Warning Light
The light operates to warn that the engine
is almost overheating. The high engine coolant temperature warn-
ing light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to the “ON” position. After
a few seconds, the light will go off.
If your engine coolant temperature is cool
with the ignition switch on, the low engine
coolant temperature indicator light comes
on. If it keeps lighting on with the engine
fully warmed, contact your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible to service the ve-
hicle.
If the high engine coolant temperature
warning light flashes, your engine is too
hot. If your vehicle overheats, stop your
vehicle and allow the engine to cool.
Your vehicle may overheat during severe
operating conditions, such as:
Driving up a long hill on a hot day.
Reducing speed or stopping after high
speed driving.
Idling for a long period with the air
conditioning on in stop
−and− go traffic.
