At the first blinking of the light, the master
warning light in the instrument cluster
comes on and the message appears on
the multi−information display to remind the
driver to fill fuel.
On inclines or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel level
indicator light may come on earlier than
usual.

This meter displays the odometer and
two trip meters.
1. Odometer—Shows the total distance the vehicle has been driven.
2. Two trip meters—Show two different distances independently driven since
the last time each trip meter was set
to zero.
You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to
measure the distance on each trip. All
trip meter data is cancelled if the elec-
trical power source is disconnected.

(d) Malfunction Indicator Lamp
This lamp comes on when the “IGON”
mode is enabled and goes off after the
hybrid system starts. This means that
the warning light system is operating
properly.
If the lamp remains on or the lamp
comes on while driving, first check the
following:
Empty fuel tank
If the fuel tank is empty, refuel immedi-
ately.
This case is a temporary malfunction. The
malfunction indicator lamp will go off after
taking several driving trips.
If the lamp does not go off even after
several trips, contact your Toyota deal-
er as soon as possible.
There is a problem somewhere in the
engine, hybrid system, throttle control
system or warning light system itself.
Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible to service the vehicle. Emissions inspection and maintenance
(I/M) programs
Your vehicle may not pass a state emis-
sion inspection if the malfunction indicator
lamp remains on. Contact your Toyota
dealer to check your vehicle’s emission
control system and OBD (On
−Board Diag-
nostics) system before taking your vehicle
for the inspection.
For details, see “Emissions inspection and
maintenance (I/M) programs” on page 394.
(e) Master Warning Light
()
If the master warning light comes on, the
warning light for the faulty system is high-
lighted or the message such as “Please
press “P” to engage Park.” and “The bat-
teries will not be charged if the transaxle
is in Neutral N.” appears on the multi −in-
formation display. (See “Service reminder
indicators and warning buzzers— —Multi −
information display” on page 133 or “Pre-
cautions for use” on page 14 or “Fuel
gauge” on page 122 for instructions.) (f) “ABS” Warning Light
The light comes on when the “IG
−ON”
mode is enabled. If the anti −lock brake
system and the brake assist system work
properly, the light turns off after the
“READY” light comes on. Thereafter if the
system malfunctions, the light comes on
again.
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is on), the
anti −lock brake system does not operate,
but the brake system still operates con-
ventionally.
If any of the following conditions
occurs, this indicates a malfunction
somewhere in the parts monitored by
the warning light system. Contact your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible so
service the vehicle.
The light does not come on when the
“IG −ON” mode is enabled, or the light
remains on after the “READY” light
comes on.
The light comes on while you are driv-
ing.
A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.
