REAR DOOR CHILD−PROTECTORS
Move the lock lever to the LOCK"
position as shown on the label.
When the child−protector is locked, you
cannot open the rear door by the inside
door handle. We recommend using this
feature whenever small children are in the
vehicle.
CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the doors
are closed and locked, especially
when small children are in the ve-
hicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the doors helps
prevent the driver and passengers
from being thrown out from the ve-
hicle in an accident. It also helps pre-
vent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.

WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SET
Activating the system
The system will sound the alarm under
the following conditions:
If any of the side doors is unlocked or
opened without the key or wireless re-
mote control transmitter, or if the back

If the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnected.
If the ignition is hotwired.
The indicator light will come on when the
system is activated.
If the alarm has been activated and the
key is not in the engine switch, all the
side doors and back door will re−lock au-
tomatically.
After one minute, the alarm will automati-
cally stop and the indicator light will starts

The alarm will be stopped by the following
these ways:
Unlock any of the side doors or the
back door with the key or wireless re-
mote control transmitter.
Turn the engine switch from the
LOCK" to ON" position.
These ways cancel the system at the
same time.
If the battery becomes discharged due
to the vehicle being unused for a long
time, etc., when the battery is recharged
or replaced, the system will give the

any of the side doors or the back door
with the key or the wireless remote con-
trol transmitter, and the alarm will stop. TESTING THE SYSTEM

You need to reset the light after the en-
gine oil replacement. Reset the light by
following the procedure below:1. Turn the engine switch to the ACC" or LOCK" position with the odometer
reading shown. (For details, see
Odometer and two trip meters" on
page 148 in this Section.)
2. Turn the engine switch to the ON" position while holding down the trip
meter reset button.
Hold down the button until the light goes
off. Before the light goes off, it illuminates
for 3 seconds, flashes for 2 seconds and
illuminates for 1 sec ond.
If the system fails to reset, the light will
remain flashing.
(i) ABS" Warning Light
The light comes on when the engine
switch is turned to the ON" position. If
the anti−lock brake system and the brake
assist system work properly, the light
turns off after a few seconds. Thereafter,
if either of the systems malfunctions, the
light comes on again. When the ABS" warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
following systems do not operate, but the
brake system still operates conventionally.
Anti−lock brake system
Brake assist system
Traction control system
(two−wheel drive models)
Active traction control system
(four−wheel drive models)
AUTO LSD" system
(two−wheel drive models)
Vehicle stability control system
Downhill assist control system
(four−wheel drive models)
Hill−start assist control system
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 will 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
engine switch is turned to the ON"
position, or remains on.
The light comes on while you are dri-
ving.
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 anti−lock
brake system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely unsta-
ble during braking.

203
CAUTION
Before driving, be sure the parking
brake is fully released and the park-
ing brake reminder light is off.
The cruise control is designed to main-
tain a set cruising speed without requir-
ing the driver to operate the accelera-
tor. Cruising speed can be set to any
speed above 40 km/h (25 mph).
Within the limits of the engine’s capabili-
ties, cruising speed can be maintained up
or down grades. However, changes in ve-
hicle speed may occur on steeper grades.
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.
CY16058
TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF
To turn the cruise control on, press the
ON−OFF" button. The CRUISE" indicator
light on the instrument panel will come on
to indicate that the cruise control is opera-
tional. Pressing the ON−OFF" button
again turns the system off.
When the system is turned off, cruising
speed must be reset when the cruise con-
trol is turned on again.
Cruise control

205
The CRUISE" indicator light remains on
to indicate that the system is still in op-
eration.
To turn the cruise control off, press the
ON−OFF" button. Make sure the
CRUISE" indicator light is off.
If the cruise control automatically cancels
out other than for the above cases, have
your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal-
er at the earliest opportunity.
RESUMING THE CRUISE CONTROL
If the cruise control is temporarily can-
celled, the cruising speed can be resumed
by pushing the lever up in the + RES"
direction.
Vehicle speed must be above 40 km/h (25
mph).
RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED
Push the lever up in the + RES" direction
and hold it. Release the lever when the
desired speed is attained. While the lever
is held up, the vehicle will gradually gain
speed.
However, a faster way to reset is to ac-
celerate the vehicle and then push the
lever down in the − SET" direction.RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED
Push the lever down in the − SET" direc-
tion and hold it. Release the lever when
the desired speed is attained. While the
lever is held down, the vehicle speed will
gradually decrease.
However, a faster way to reset is to de-
press the brake pedal and then push the
lever down in the − SET" direction.
Even if you downshift from D" to 4", with
the cruise control on, engine braking will
not be enabled because the cruise control
is not cancelled. To decrease the vehicle
speed, reset to a slower speed with the
cruise control lever or depress the brake
pedal. If you use the brake pedal, cruise
control is cancelled.
CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE WARNING
If the CRUISE" indicator light flashes
when using the cruise control, press the
ON−OFF" button to turn the system off
and then press 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.
