(a) Brake System Warning Light andBuzzer
This light comes on in the following cases
when the engine switch is in the “ON”
position.

This light comes on for a few seconds
when the engine switch is turned to the
“ON” position even after the parking brake
is released.
If the vehicle speed rises above 5 km/h
(3 mph) with the parking brake applied, a
buzzer sounds.
When the brake fluid level is low...
CAUTION
It is dangerous to continue driving
normally when the brake fluid level is
low.
Have your vehicle checked at your
Toyota dealer in the following case:
The light does not come on even if the
parking brake is applied when the en-
gine switch is in the “ON” position.
The light does not come on initially
even if the engine switch is turned on
with the parking brake released. A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
If either of the following conditions
occurs, immediately stop your vehicle
at a safe place and contact your
Toyota dealer.
The light does not turn off even
after the parking brake is released
while the engine is running.
In this case, the brakes may not

distance will become longer. De-
press the brake pedal firmly and
bring the vehicle to an immediate
stop.
The brake system warning light re-
mains on together with the “ABS”

the reminder light flashes and buzzer
sounds if the driver ’s seat belt is not fas-
tened. Unless the driver fastens the belt,
the light continues flashing and the buzzer
sounds for about 6 seconds.
If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h
(12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened,
the buzzer will sound for about 10 sec-
onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfas-
tened, the buzzer will sound in a different
tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle
speed drops below 20 km/h (12 mph), the
buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the
buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer
still sounds, make sure the front passen-
ger ’s seat belt is fastened.

If the fuel tank is not empty or the fuel
tank cap is not loose...
There is a problem somewhere in the
engine, emission control system, elec-
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
possible.
Even if the abnormality of the electronic
throttle control system is corrected during
low speed driving, the system may not be
recovered until the engine is stopped and
the engine switch is turned to “ACC” or
“LOCK” position.
CAUTION
Be especially careful to prevent erro-
neous pedal operation.
Emissions Inspection and Maintenance
(I/M) programs
Your vehicle may not pass a state

ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than
usual. (g) Low Engine Oil Pressure Warning
Light
This light warns that the engine oil pres-
sure is too low.

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

indicate low oil level, and the oil level
must be checked using the level dipstick.
