SETTING THE SYSTEM 1. Turn the ignition key to the ºLOCKº position and remove it.
2. Have all passengers get out of the vehicle.
3. Close and lock all the side doors, back door and hood.
The indicator light will come on when all
the side doors, back door and hood are
closed and locked.
As the side doors are locked, the system
will give you a preparation time of 30
seconds before the setting, during which
the side doors, back door and hood may
be opened to prepare for the setting. Be careful not to use the key when open-
ing any side door. This will cancel the
system.
4. After making sure the indicator light starts flashing, you may leave the ve-
hicle.
The system will automatically be set after
the preparation time passes. The indicator
light will flash to show the system is set.
If any of the side doors, back door or
hood is open at that time, the setting is
interrupted until it is closed and locked.
Never leave anyone in the vehicle when
you set the system, because unlocking
from the inside will activate the system.
WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SET
Activating the system
The system will give the alarm and cut
the starter circuit under the following
conditions: If any of the side doors, back door or
hood is unlocked without using the key
If the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnected
After one minute, the alarm will automati-
cally stop with the starter circuit cut kept on. Reactivating the alarm
Once set, the system automatically resets
the alarm each time all the side doors,
back door and hood are closed after the
alarm stops.
The alarm will be activated again under
the following conditions:
If any of the side doors, back door or
hood is opened
If the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnected
Stopping the alarm
Turn the ignition key from the ºLOCKº to
ºACCº position. The alarm will be stopped
with the starter circuit cut kept on. Stop-
ping the alarm in this manner will keep
the alarm from being reactivated when any
of the side doors, back door or hood is opened.
Interrupting the setting
With the system set, the back door can
be opened by using the key without set-
ting off the system. While the back door
is open, the setting is interrupted and the
side doors and hood may be opened in
addition. However, when the battery termi-
nal is disconnected and then reconnected,
the system is activated.

Close and lock the side doors and hood,
and the system will automatically be reset
after two seconds when the back door is
closed with the key removed.

cancels the system completely and the
starter circuit cut will be cancelled at
once.
INDICATOR LIGHT
The indicator light gives the following
three indications.
FLASHINGÐThe system is set. You need
the key to open the side doors, back door
and hood.
ONÐThe system will automatically be set
when the time comes. The side doors,
back door and hood may be opened with-
out a key.

open any of the side doors, back door
and hood.
TESTING THE SYSTEM
1. Open the windows.
2. Set the system as described above. The side doors should be locked with
the key. Be sure to wait until the indi-
cator light starts flashing.
3. Unlock either side door from the inside. The system should activate the alarm.
4. Cancel the system by unlocking either side doors with the key.
5. Repeat this operation for the other side doors, back door and hood. When test-
ing on the hood, also check that the

Odometer and two trip meters
This meter displays the odometer and
two trip meters. To change the odome-
ter display to the trip meter display,
push the ºODO TRIPº button. To reset
the trip meter A to zero, display the

ters can record two different distances in-
dependently.
You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to mea-
sure the distance on each trip. All trip
meter data is cancelled if the electrical
power source is disconnected.
The meter display changes each time you
push the ºODO TRIPº button, changing in
order from the odometer to trip meter A
to trip meter B, then back to the odome-

CAUTION
To help maintain maximum control
of your vehicle, do not use the
cruise control when driving in
heavy or varying traffic, or on slip-
pery (rainy, icy or snow- covered) or
winding roads.
Avoid vehicle speed increases when
driving downhill. If the vehicle
speed is too fast in relation to the
cruise control set speed, cancel the
cruise control then downshift the
transmission to use engine braking
to slow down.
TURNING ON THE SYSTEM
To operate the cruise control, push the
ºCRUISE ON- OFFº switch. This turns the
system on. The indicator light in the
instrument panel shows that you can now
set the vehicle at a desired cruising
speed. Another push will turn the system
completely off.
CAUTION
To avoid accidental cruise control en-
gagement, keep the ºCRUISE ON-
OFFº switch off when not using the
cruise control.
SETTING AT A DESIRED SPEED
On vehicles with automatic transmission,
the transmission must be in ºDº before
you set the cruise control speed.
Bring your vehicle to the desired speed,
push the lever down in the ºSET/COASTº
direction and release it. This sets the ve-
hicle at that speed. If the speed is not
satisfactory, tap the lever up for a faster
speed, or tap it down for a slower speed.
Each tap changes the set speed by 1.6
km/h (1.0 mph). You can now take your
foot off the accelerator pedal.
If you need acceleration±for example,
when passing±depress the accelerator
pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed
the set speed. When you release it, the
vehicle will return to the speed set prior
to the acceleration.
CAUTION
For manual transmission:
While driving with the cruise control
on, do not shift to neutral without
depressing the clutch pedal, as this
may cause engine racing or overrev-
ving.
CANCELLING THE PRESET SPEED
You can cancel the preset speed by:
a. Pulling the control lever in the ºCANCELº
direction and releasing it.
b. Depressing the brake pedal.
c. Depressing the clutch pedal (manual
transmission).
If the vehicle speed falls below about 40
km/h (25 mph), the preset speed will auto- matically cancel out.
If the vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10
mph) below the preset speed, the preset
speed will also automatically cancel out.
If the preset speed automatically cancels
out other than for the above cases, have
your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal-
er at the earliest opportunity.

RESETTING AT A FASTER SPEED
Press the control lever upward in the
ºRES/ACCº direction and hold it. Release
the lever when the desired speed is at-
tained. While the lever is held upward, the
vehicle will gradually gain speed.
However, a faster way to reset is to ac-
celerate the vehicle and then press the
control lever downward in the ºSET/
COASTº direction.
RESETTING AT A SLOWER SPEED
Push the control lever downward in the
ºSET/COASTº direction and hold it. Re-
lease the lever when the desired speed is
attained. While the lever is held down-
ward, the vehicle speed will gradually de-
crease.
However, a faster way to reset is to de-
press the brake pedal and then press the
control lever downward in the ºSET/
COASTº direction.
RESUMING THE PRESET SPEED
If the preset speed is cancelled by pu
lling
the control lever or by depressing the
brake pedal or clutch pedal, pushing the
lever up in the ºRES/ACCº direction will
restore the speed set prior to cancellation.
However, once the vehicle speed falls be-
low about 40 km/h (25 mph), the preset
speed will not be resumed.
CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE WARNING
If the ºCRUISEº indicator light in the
instrument cluster flashes when using the
cruise control, push the ºCRUISE ON-
OFFº switch to turn the system off and
then push it again to turn it on.
If any of the following conditions then oc-
curs, there is some trouble in the cruise
control system.
The indicator light does not come on.
The indicator light flashes again.
The indicator light goes out after it
comes on.
If this is the case, contact your Toyota
dealer and have your vehicle inspected.
