CAUTION
nIf a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as Multi Terrain ABS and the SRS airbag
warning lights not come on when you start the engine, this could mean that
these systems are not available to help protect you in an accident, which
could result in death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer immediately if this occurs.
nWarning lights
Warning lights inform the driver
of malfunctions in the indicated
vehicle’s systems. ( P. 449)
*: These lights turn on when the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned
to IGNITION ON mode to indicate that a system check is being per−
formed. They will turn off after the engine is started, or after a few sec−
onds. There may be a malfunction in a system if the lights do not come
on, or if the lights do not turn off. Have the vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer.
