nIf the malfunction indicator lamp comes on while driving
The malfunction indicator lamp will come on if the fuel tank becomes com−
pletely empty. If the fuel tank is empty, refuel the vehicle immediately. The

ger is not sitting in the seat.
lIf a cushion is placed on the seat, the sensor may not detect a passen−
ger, and the warning light may not operate properly.
nSRS warning light

lThe airbag sensor assembly
lFront airbag sensors
lThe curtain shield airbag sensors
lThe side and curtain shield airbag sensors
lThe seat belt buckle switches
lThe driver ’s seat position sensor
lThe inflators
lThe interconnecting wiring and power sources

nChanging the engine oil
l
Make sure to reset oil change system

462 5−2. Steps to take in an emergency
nResetting the tire pressure warning data
After adjusting the tire inflation pressure, be sure to initialize the data.
(P. 393)
If the message remains on, the system may have malfunctioned. Have the
vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
nWarning messages in the cruise control mode
In the following instances, there is a possibility that the approach warning will

Oil viscosity:
l
The 0W portion of the oil viscosity rating indicates the characteristic
of the oil which allows cold startab ility. Oils with a lower value before
the W allow for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.
lThe 20 in 0W−20 indicates the oil viscosity when the oil is as its oper−
ating temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity may be better suited
if the vehicle is operated at high
speeds, or under extreme load con−
dition.
