WARNING
■If both the ABS and the brake system warning lights remain on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized r epairer, or any reliable repairer. The
vehicle will become extremely unstable during braking, and the ABS system
may fail, which could cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
■ When the electric power steering system warning light comes on
When the light comes on yellow, the assist to the power steering is
restricted. When the light comes on red, the assist to the power steering is
lost and handling operations of the steering wheel become extremely
heavy. When steering wheel operations are heavier than usual, grip the
steering wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usual.
■ If the tire pressure warning light comes on
Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failure to do so could cause a
loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury.
● Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire infla-
tion pressure immediately.
● Vehicles with spare tire: If the tire pressure warning light comes on even
after tire inflation pressure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat
tire. Check the tires. If a tire is flat, change it with the spare tire and have
the flat tire repaired by the nearest authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
● Vehicles with emergency tire puncture repair kit: If the tire pressure warn-
ing light comes on even after tire inflat ion pressure adjustment, it is proba-
ble that you have a flat tire. Check the tire s. If a tire is flat, repair the flat tire
by using emergency tire puncture repair kit. ( P. 710)
● Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you
could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.
■ If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.

Inflate the tire until the specified
air pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected
and the pressure will surge
and then gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will
display the actual tire infla-
tion pressure about 1 minute
(5 minutes at low tempera-
ture) after the switch is
turned on.
Inflate the tire until the speci-
fied air pressure.
• If the tire inflation pressure is
still lower than the specified
point after inflation for 35 min-
utes with the switch on, the
tire is too damaged to be
repaired. Turn the compres-
sor switch off and contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer.
• If the tire inflation pressure exceeds the specified air pressure, let out
some air to adjust the tire inflation pressure. ( P. 724, 772)

under 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm2
or bar, 19 psi): The puncture
cannot be repaired. Contact
any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
If the tire inflation pressure is 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm2 or bar, 19 psi)
