Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS warning light not
come on when you start the engine (except hybrid vehicle) or hybrid system
(hybrid vehicle), 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 any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional immediately if this occurs.
