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.
