The key must be in the “ON” position.
The lever automatically returns after you
make a turn, but you may have to return
it by hand after you change lanes.
To signal a lane change, move the lever
up or down to the pressure point (position
2) and hold it.
If the turn signal indicator lights (green
lights) on the instrument panel flash faster

(a) Brake System Warning Light andBuzzer
This light comes on in the following cases
when the ignition key is in the “ON” posi-
tion.
When the parking brake is applied...
This light comes on for a few seconds
when the ignition key is in the “ON” posi-
tion even after the parking brake is re-
leased.
When the brake fluid level is low...
CAUTION
It is dangerous to continue driving
normally when the brake fluid level is
low.
When the hydraulic brake booster
fails...
If the hydraulic booster causes an problem
resulting in poor braking performance, the
warning light comes on and buzzer sounds
continuously. Have your vehicle checked at your
Toyota dealer in the following cases:
The light does not come on even if the
parking brake is applied when the igni-
tion key is in the “ON” position.
The light does not come on even if the
ignition key is turned on with the park-
ing brake released.
A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
If any of the following conditions oc-
cur, immediately stop your vehicle at
a safe place and contact your Toyota
dealer.
The light does not turn off even
after the parking brake is released
while the engine is running.
The warning buzzer comes on to-
gether with the warning light.
In either case, this can indicate that
the brakes may not work properly and
your stopping distance will become
longer. Depress the brake pedal firmly
and bring the vehicle to an immediate
stop.
The brake system warning light re-
mains on together with the “ABS”
warning light.
In this case, not only the antilock
brake system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely unsta-
ble during braking.
Any of the following conditions may oc-
cur, but do not indicate a malfunction:
The light may stay on for about 60
seconds after the ignition key is turned
to “ON” position. It is normal if it goes
out after a while.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the warning light and
buzzer. It is normal if the light goes
out and the buzzer stops sounding af-
ter a few seconds.
You may hear a small sound in the
engine compartment after the engine is
started or the brake pedal is depressed
repeatedly. This is a pump pulsating
sound of the brake system, and it is
not a malfunction.

127
(h) SRS Warning Light
This light will come on when the igni-
tion key is turned to the “ON” position.
After about 6 seconds, the light will go
off. This means the system of the air-
bag and front seat belt pretensioners
are operating properly.
The warning light system monitors the air-
bag sensor assembly, front airbag sen-
sors, side and curtain shield airbag sen-
sors, curtain shield airbag sensors,
driver ’s seat position sensor, driver ’s seat
belt buckle switch, front seat belt preten-
sioner assemblies, inflators, warning light,
roll sensing of curtain shield airbags off
indicator light, interconnecting wiring and
power sources.
If either of the following conditions occurs,
this indicates a malfunction somewhere in
the components monitored by the warning
light system. Contact your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible to service the ve-
hicle.
The light does not come on when the
ignition key is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion or remains on for more than 6
seconds or flashes.
The light comes on or flashes while
driving.If the light stays on, it indicates that the
driver and passenger airbags have a prob-
lem. If the light flashes, the side and cur-
tain shield airbags and/or the seat belt
pretensioners have a problem.
(i) “ABS” Warning Light
The light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to the “ON” position. If
the antilock brake system and the
brake assist system work properly, the
light turns off after a few seconds.
Thereafter, if either of the systems mal-
functions, the light comes on again.
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti
−lock brake system, the brake assist
system, the vehicle stability control sys-
tem and/or active traction control system
do/does not operate, but the brake system
still operates conventionally.
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti −lock brake system does not operate
so that the wheels could lock up during
a sudden braking or braking on slippery
road surfaces. If either of the following conditions oc-
curs, this indicates a malfunction some-
where in the components monitored by
the warning light system. Contact your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible to
service the vehicle.
The light does not come on when the
ignition key is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion, or remains on.
The light comes on while you are driv-
ing.
A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
If the “ABS” warning light remains on
together with the brake system warn-
ing light, immediately stop your ve-
hicle at a safe place and contact your
Toyota dealer.
In this case, not only the antilock
brake system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely unsta-
ble during braking.

128
Either of the following conditions may
occur, but do not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
The light may stay on for about 60
seconds after the ignition key is turned
to “ON” position. It is normal if it turns
off after a while.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the light. It is normal if it
turns off after a few seconds.
(j) Open Door Warning Light
This light remains on until all the side
doors and back door are completely
closed.
(k) Unengaged “Park” Warning Light
This light warns that the transmission
“Park” mechanism is not engaged. If the
four −wheel drive control is in the “N” posi-
tion while the selector lever is in the “P”
position, the transmission will disengage
and the wheels will not lock.
CAUTION
To restore the park function, shift the
fourwheel drive control out of “N”,
or the vehicle can move.
(l) Automatic Transmission Fluid Tem- perature Warning Light
This light warns that the automatic trans-
mission fluid temperature is too high.
If this light comes on while you are driv-
ing, slow down and pull off the road. Stop
the vehicle at a safe place and put the
selector lever in “P” and leave the engine
idling until the light goes off. If the light
goes off, you can start the vehicle again.
If the light does not go off, call a Toyota
dealer or qualified repair shop for assis-
tance.
NOTICE
Continued driving with the warning
light on may damage the automatic
transmission.
(m) Vehicle Stability Control System and Active Traction Control System
Warning Light
This light warns that there is a problem
somewhere in the vehicle stability control
system and/or active traction control sys-
tem.
If the “VSC/TRAC” warning light and “VSC
OFF” indicator light come on, have your
vehicle checked by Toyota dealer as soon
as possible. However, it is no problem
that the “VSC/TRAC” warning light comes
on when the brake actuator temperature
becomes high. (For details, see “Active
traction control system” on page 145.)
The lights will come on with the ignition
key turned to “ON”, and will go off after
a few seconds.
The lights may come on for 60 seconds
after the ignition key is turned to “ON”
position. It is normal if they go out after
a whi l e.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the lights. it is normal if they
go out after a few seconds.

129
When the “VSC/TRAC” warning light and
“VSC OFF” indicator light come on, the
vehicle stability control system and/or ac-
tive traction control system are not operat-
ing, but there is no problem if you contin-
ue to drive.
(n) Key Reminder Buzzer
This buzzer acts as a reminder to remove
the key when you open the driver’s door
with the ignition key in the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position.
