WARNING
If a warning light illuminates or
flashes, or a warning message is dis-
played, immediately stop the vehicle
in a safe place. Do not open the hood
to inspect the engine, as doing so
may lead to serious injury, such as
steam burns. If a warning message is
displayed, perform the necessary pro-
cedures according to the displayed
message or explanation in the
owner’s manual.
These warning messages indicate
that a malfunction has occurred in a
system or function of the vehicle. If
you continue to drive the vehicle, the
engine may stop suddenly, possibly
leading to an accident. Also, even if
no warning lights are illuminated or
messages are displayed, if any
abnormal sounds, smells or vibrations
are detected, or of the engine stops
suddenly, refrain from opening the
hood to inspect the engine and con-
sult an authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
WARNING
If you hear a loud noise or feel some-
thing impact the underside of the
vehicle while driving, immediately
stop the vehicle in a safe place.
After stopping the vehicle in a safe
place, check the underside of the
vehicle for any leaking brake fluid, oil
or fuel. If any fluid is leaking, stop
driving immediately and have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Brake and fuel lines run under the
floor of the vehicle. If any of these
lines are damaged, the brakes may
fail or leaking fuel may ignite and
cause a fire.
WARNING
If the engine stalls while driving, sev-
eral warning lights will illuminate.
Depending on vehicle specifications,
the power-assisted brakes and power
steering may stop operating. In this
case the braking power will be
reduced and operation of the steering
wheel will become heavy. Although
the operation of the brakes and steer-
ing will not be totally lost, they will
require stronger than normal input to
operate. Stop the vehicle in a safe
place as soon as possible.

If you have been involved in a colli-
sion, perform the following:
1Immediately leave the vehicle
and move to a safe place in
order to avoid secondary colli-
sions. Make sure to turn the
engine switch off to help prevent
the vehicle from catching fire. If
the airbags have deployed
(inflated), the airbag related
parts will be extremely hot.
Avoid touching the parts with
your hands or any part of your
body.
2If someone has been injured,
contact emergency services and
request assistance. If someone
has no obvious external injuries,
but they may have a head injury,
keep their airway open while
moving them as little as possi-
ble. If there is danger of the
vehicle being involved in a sec-
ondary collision, move the
injured person to a safe place
while keeping them as horizon-
tal as possible.
WARNING
While driving, if a tire has been punc-
tured or has ruptured, firmly grip the
steering wheel, gradually reduce the
vehicle speed and stop the vehicle in
a safe place. Avoid sudden braking
and steering operations as doing so
may cause you to lose control of the
vehicle. Gradually reduce the vehicle
speed and stop the vehicle in a safe
place.
●Vehicles equipped with run-flat tires
As the sidewalls of run-flat tires are
especially stiff, it may be difficult to
feel when a tire is punctured or if the
tire pressure has decreased sud-
denly. It may also be difficult to vis-
ually tell that a tire is flat or the
inflation pressure is low.
If the tire pressure warning indicator
illuminates, while avoiding sudden
braking or steering operations,
decelerate to 80 km/h or less, care-
fully stop the vehicle in a safe place
and check the condition of each tire.
For details on how to check the condi-
tion of the tires, refer to page 278. If
any tire is damaged, contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer for assistance.
The tire pressure warning indicator
may not illuminate if the inflation pres-
sure of a tire drops rapidly, such as
when a tire has burst.
