(d) Turning off the rear height controlair suspension
To turn off the rear height control air
suspension with the vehicle stopped,
push the HEIGHT CONTROL OFF"
switch. The height control OFF" indi-
cator light comes on and the vehicle
height is fixed in the same mode as the
height control switch is pushed.
This status is memorized in the system
even after the engine is stopped.
If you push the switch again, the height
control OFF" indicator light goes out and
the rear height control air suspension is
turned on.
Even after the rear height control air sus-
pension is turned off with the HEIGHT
CONTROL OFF" switch, if the vehicle
speed exceeds 30 km/h (19 mph), the
rear height control air suspension automat-
ically selects the N" mode.CAUTION
If you drive through deep water over
about 700 mm (28 in.) in depth, put
the vehicle height in the HI" mode
with the height select switch and then
turn off the rear height control air
suspension by pushing the HEIGHT
CONTROL OFF" switch.
NOTICE
 When jacking up or installing tire
chains, be sure to turn off the rear
height control air suspension by
pushing the HEIGHT CONTROL
OFF" switch and stop the engine.
Otherwise, the vehicle height may
change because of the automatic
leveling function, resulting in an un-
expected accident.
 If your vehicle must be towed, put
the vehicle height in the N" mode
and turn off the rear height control
air suspension. Otherwise, the ve-
hicle height may change because of
the automatic leveling function, re-
sulting in an unexpected accident.

CAUTION
Do not attempt to remove the radiator
cap when the engine and radiator are
hot. Serious injury could result from
scalding hot fluid and steam blown
out under pressure.
7. After the engine coolant temperaturehas cooled to normal, again check the
coolant level in the reservoir. If neces-
sary, bring it up to half full again. Seri-
ous coolant loss indicates a leak in the
system. You s hould have it checked as
soon as possible at your Toyota dealer.
1. Reduce your speed gradually, keeping a straight line. Move cau-
tiously off the road to a safe place
well away from the traffic. Avoid
stopping on the center divider of
a highway. Park on a level spot
with firm ground.
2. Stop the engine and turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Firmly set the parking brake and put the transmission in P".
4. Have everyone get out of the ve- hicle on the side away from traffic.
5. Read the following instructions thoroughly.CAUTION
When jacking, be sure to observe
the following to reduce the possi-
bility of death or serious injury:
Follow jacking instructions.
 Do not put any part of your
body under the vehicle sup-
ported by the jack. Otherwise,
personal injury may occur.
 Do not start or run the engine
while your vehicle is supported
by the jack.
 S t o p th e veh i cl e on a level fi rm
ground, firmly set the parking
brake and put the transmission
in P". Block the wheel diago-
nally opposite to the one being
changed if necessary.
If you have a flat tire

396
Make sure to set the jack prop-
erly in the jack point. Raising
the vehicle with jack improper-
ly positioned will damage the
vehicle or may allow the ve-
hicle to fall off the jack and
cause death or serious injury.
 Never get under the vehicle
when the vehicle is supported
by the jack alone.
 Use the jack only for lifting
your vehicle during wheel
changing.
 Do not raise the vehicle with
someone in the vehicle.
 When raising the vehicle, do
not place any objects on top
of or underneath the jack.
 Raise the vehicle only high
enough to remove and change
the tire.
NOTICE
 Do not continue driving with
a deflated tire. Driving even a
short distance can damage a
tire and wheel beyond repair.
 Vehicles with rear height con-
trol air suspension: When
jacking up or installing the
tire chains, be sure to turn
off the rear height control
and stop the engine. Other-
wise, the vehicle height may
change in the automatic lev-
eling function, resulting in
accident.
