4976-5. Overheating

If Trouble Arises
■If you find no problems, the engine is cool, and no leaks are
obvious:
Carefully add coolant as required (→P. 425).
WARNING
■ Pull over to a safe location, then switch the ignition to off and
make sure the fan is not running before attempting to work near the
cooling fan
Working near the cooling fan when it is running is dangerous. The fan could
continue running indefinitely even if the engine has stopped and the engine
compartment temperature is high. You could be hit by the fan and seriously
injured.
■ Do not remove either cooling system cap when the engine and
radiator are hot
When the engine and radiator are hot, scalding coolant and steam may
shoot out under pressure and cause serious injury.
■ Open the hood ONLY after steam is no longer escaping from the engine
Steam from an overheated engine is dangerous. The escaping steam could
seriously burn you.
NOTICE
● If the cooling fan does not operate while the engine is running, the engine
temperature will increase. Stop the engine and call your Toyota dealer.
● If the engine continues to overheat or frequently overheats, have the cool-
ing system inspected. The engine could be seriously damaged unless
repairs are made. Consult your Toyota dealer.

If Trouble Arises
■Power Steering Malfunction Indicator Light
●If the indicator light illuminates/flashes, the power steering will not operate
normally. If this happens, the steering wheel can still be operated, however,
the operation may feel heavy compared to normal, or the steering wheel
could vibrate when turning.
● Repeatedly jerking the steering wheel left and right while the vehicle is
stopped or moving extremely slowly will cause the power steering system to
go into protective mode which will make the steering feel heavy, but this
does not indicate a problem. If this occurs, park the vehicle safely and wait
several minutes for the system to return to normal.
WARNING
■Do not drive with the brake system warning light illuminated. Contact
your Toyota dealer to have the brakes inspected as soon as possible
Driving with the brake system warning light illuminated is dangerous. It indi-
cates that your brakes may not work at all or that they could completely fail
at any time. If this light remains illuminated, after checking that the parking
brake is fully released, have the brakes inspected immediately.
In addition, the effectiveness of the braking may diminish so you may need
to depress the brake pedal more strongly than normal to stop the vehicle.
■ Do not drive with both the ABS warning light and brake warning light
illuminated. Have the vehicle towed to your Toyota dealer to have the
brakes inspected as soon as possible
Driving when the brake system warning light and ABS warning light are illu-
minated simultaneously is dangerous.
When both lights are illuminated, the rear wheels could lock more quickly in
an emergency stop than under normal circumstances.
NOTICE
■Charging System Warning Light
Do not continue driving when the charging system warning light is illumi-
nated because the engine could stop unexpectedly.
■ Engine Oil Warning Light
● Do not run the engine if the oil pressure is low. Otherwise, it could result in
extensive engine damage.
● Do not run the engine if the oil level is low. Otherwise, it could result in
extensive engine damage.
■ High Engine Coolant Temperature Warning Light
Do not drive the vehicle with the high engine coolant temperature warning
light illuminated. Otherwise, it could result in damage to the engine.
