HILUX_OM_OM0K789E_(EE)
When the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles with-
out smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with
smart entry & start system), the red indicator light will illuminate for 10
seconds and then the green indicator light will illuminate, indicating
that the system is enabled. The indicator lights indicate the following:
● If the green indicator light illuminates and stays on, the system is
enabled.
● If the green indicator light flashes twice per second, an automatic or
manual Emergency Call is being made.
● If no indicator lights illuminate, the system is not enabled.
● If the red indicator light illuminates at any time other than immedi-
ately after the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles
without smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehi-
cles with smart entry & start system), the system may be malfunc-
tioning or the backup battery may be depleted. The backup battery
has lifespan of at least 3 years. Contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
● If the red indicator light blinks for approximately 30 seconds during
an Emergency Call, the call has been disconnected or the cellular
network signal is weak.
A test mode is provided for to check the performance of the Emer-
gency Call system. To test the device, contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

WARNING
■The information display at low temperatures (vehicles with multi-infor-
mation display)
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal
information display. At extremely low temperatures, the display monitor may
respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For vehicles with automatic transmission: For example, there is a lag
between the driver’s shifting and the new gear number appearing on the
display. This lag could cause the driver to downshift again, causing rapid
and excessive engine braking and possibly an accident resulting in death or
injury.
NOTICE
■ To prevent damage to the engine and its components
● Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which
indicates the maximum engine speed.
● The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is
in the red zone (H). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe
place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely. ( P. 610)
