■Brake hold operated indicator
■iMT indicator
■Warning buzzer
In some cases, the buzzer may not be
heard due to being in a noisy location or audio sound.
■Front passenger detection sensor,
seat belt reminder and warning
buzzer
●If luggage is placed on the front pas-
senger seat, the front passenger detection sensor may cause the warn-
ing light to flash and the warning
buzzer to sound even if a passenger is not sitting in the seat.
●If a cushion is placed on the seat, the
sensor may not detect a passenger, and the warning light may not operate
properly.
■If the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on while driving
For some models, the malfunction indi-
cator lamp will come on if the fuel tank
becomes completely empty. If the fuel tank is empty, refuel the vehicle immedi-
ately. The malfunction indicator lamp will
go off after several trips.
If the malfunction indicator lamp does
not go off, contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possi-
ble.
■Electric power steering system warning light (warning buzzer)

tion pressure of each tire and adjust
them to the specified level.
2 If the warning light does not turn off even after several minutes have
elapsed, check that the inflation
pressure of each tire is at the speci- fied level and perform initialization.
( P.483)
■The tire pressure warning light may
come on due to natural causes (vehicles with a tire pressure warn-
ing system)
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such as
natural air leaks and tire inflation pres-
sure changes caused by temperature. In this case, adjusting the tire inflation
pressure will turn off the warning light
(after a few minutes).
■When a tire is replaced with a spare tire (vehicles with a tire pressure
warning system)
The spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter.
If a tire goes flat, the tire pressure warn-
ing light will not turn off even though the flat tire has been replaced with the spare
tire. Replace the spare tire with the
repaired tire and adjust the tire inflation pressure. The tire pr essure warning light
will go off after a few minutes.

■If both the ABS and the brake
system warning lights remain on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota author-
ized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The vehicle will become extremely
unstable during br aking, and the ABS
system may fail, which could cause
an accident resulting in death or seri- ous injury.
■When the electric power steer-ing system warning light comes
on
When the light comes on yellow, the assist to the power steering is
restricted. When th e 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 (vehicles with a tire
pressure warning system)
Be sure to observe the following pre- cautions.
Failure to do so could cause a loss of
vehicle control and re sult in death or serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire
inflation pressure immediately.

■Warning messages
The warning messages explained below
may differ from the actual messages
according to operation conditions and vehicle specifications.
■Warning buzzer
A buzzer may sound when a message is

WA R N I N G
●Vehicles with a compact spare tire
and full-size 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 any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Vehicles with emergency tire punc-ture repair kit: 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, repair
the flat tire by using emergency tire puncture repair kit.
●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 leak-age should occur (vehicles with
a tire pressure warning system)
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.
NOTICE
■To ensure the tire pressure warn-
ing system operates properly
(vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)
Do not install tires with different speci-
fications or makers, as the tire pres- sure warning system may not operate
properly.
If a war ning message is
displayed
The multi-information display
shows warnings for system
malfunctions and incorrectly
performed operations, and
messages that indicate a need
for maintenance. When a mes-
sage is displayed, perform the
appropriate corrective action
for the message.
If a warning message is dis-
played again after the appro-
priate actions have been
performed, contact any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
Additionally, if a warning light
comes on or flashes at the
same time that a warning mes-
sage is displayed, take the
appropriate corrective action
for the warning light. ( P.511)

contact with the center of the
jack point.
5 Assemble the jack handle
extension.
6 Raise the vehicle until the tire is
slightly raised off the ground.
7 Remove all the wheel nuts and
the tire.
When resting the tire on the ground,
place the tire so that the wheel design faces up to avoid scratching the wheel
surface.
WA R N I N G
■Replacing a flat tire
●Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes immedi-
ately after the vehicle has been
driven. After the vehicle has been driven the disc wheels and the area
around the brakes will be extremely
hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet or other body parts
while changing a tire, etc. may
result in burns.
●Failure to follow these precautions
could cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the tire to fall off, result-
ing in death or serious injury.
• Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
Oil and grease may cause the
wheel nuts to be excessively tight- ened, leading to bolt or disc wheel
damage. In addition, the oil or
grease can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off,
causing an accident and resulting in
death or serious injury. Remove any oil or grease from the wheel bolts or
wheel nuts.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened with
a torque wrench to 103 N•m (10.5
kgf•m, 76 ft•lbf) as soon as possible after changing wheels.
