4RUNNER (U)
CAUTION
■When starting the engine
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do  not depress the
accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumsta nces.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious in jury.
■ Caution while driving
If engine failure occurs while the vehicle is moving, do not lo ck or open the
doors  until  the  vehicle  reaches  a  safe  and  complete  stop. Activ ation  of  the
steering  lock  in  this  circumstance  may  lead  to  an  accident,  res ulting  in
death or serious injury.
■ Stopping the engine in an emergency
If  you  want  to  stop  the  engine  in  an  emergency  while  driving  th e  vehicle,
press and hold the engine switch for more than 2 seconds, or pr ess it briefly
3 times or more in succession. ( P. 407)
However,  do  not  touch  the  engine  switch  while  driving  except  in   an  emer-
gency. Turning the engine off while driving will not cause loss of steering or
braking control, but the power assist to these systems will be  lost. This will
make  it  more  difficult  to  steer  and  brake,  so  you  should  pull  o ver  and  stop
the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
NOTICE
■ To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the engine switch in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode  for
long periods of time without the engine running.
