DWhen the engine switch is turned to
the “ON” position, the light remains off
or flashes without illuminating for more
than 6 seconds.
DWhile driving the vehicle, the light goes
off or flashes.
CAUTION
DYou must turn off the front airbag
on the front passenger side when it
is unavoidable to install the rear−
facing child restraint system on the
front passenger seat.
DNever install a rear−facing child re-
straint system on the front passen-
ger seat with the airbag turned on.
Otherwise, the force of the rapid
inflation of the airbag could cause
death or serious injury to the child.
DUnless the rear−facing child re-
straint system is installed on the
front passenger seat, the airbag
should be turned on to avoid death
or serious injuries to the front pas-
senger. Make sure that the SRS
warning light is off.
DTurning off the airbag can reduce
the performance of the SRS system
in certain accidents and increase
the likelihood of death or serious
injuries to the front passenger.

Fuel gauge
MS15001
The gauge indicates the approximate
quantity of fuel remaining in the tank
when the engine switch is on.
Nearly full—Indicator at “1/1”
Nearly empty—Indicator at “R”
It is a good idea to keep the tank over
1/3 full.
MS15002
If the low fuel level warning light blinks
and the warning buzzer comes on, fill the
fuel tank as soon as possible. Further fuel
reduction makes the light blink quicker.
On incline or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the fuel tank, the warning
light may blinks and the warning buzzer
may come on earlier than usual.
On some models—
If the fuel tank is completely empty, the
malfunction indicator lamp comes on. Fill
the fuel tank immediately.
The indicator lamp goes off after driving
several times. If the indicator lamp does
not go off, contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional, as soon
as possible.

The warning lights indicate the engine
coolant temperature when the engine
switch is on. The engine operating tem-
perature will vary with changes in
weather and engine load.
The engine coolant temperature warning
light will come on when the engine switch
is turned to the “ON” position. After a few
seconds, the light will go off.
Engine coolant temperature is high...
When the engine coolant temperature be-
comes high, the engine coolant tempera-
ture warning light blinks. If the tempera-
ture rises further, the engine coolant
temperature warning light remains on and
at the same time, the “STOP” warning
light blinks. In such cases, the engine is
too hot. If your vehicle overheats, stop the
vehicle and allow the engine to cool down.
Your vehicle may overheat during severe
operating conditions, such as:
DDriving up a long hill on a hot day.
DReducing speed or stopping after high
speed driving.
DIdling for a long period with the air
conditioning on in stop−and−go traffic.
NOTICE
zDo not remove the thermostat from
the engine cooling system as this
may cause the engine to overheat.
The thermostat is designed to con-
trol the flow of coolant to keep the
temperature of the engine within
the specified operating range.
zDo not continue driving with an
overheated engine. See “If your
vehicle overheats” on page 225 in
Section 4.

CAUTION
It is dangerous to continue driving
normally when the brake fluid level is
low.
Have your vehicle checked at any au-
thorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped
professional, in the following cases:
DThe light does not come on even if the
parking brake is applied when the en-
gine switch is in the “ON” position.
DThe light does not come on even if the
engine switch is turned on with the
parking brake released.
A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.

occurs, immediately stop your vehicle
at a safe place and contact any au-
thorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped
professional.
DThe light does not turn off even
after the parking brake is released
while the engine is running.

work properly and your stopping
distance will become longer. De-
press the brake pedal firmly and
bring the vehicle to an immediate
stop.
DThe brake system warning light re-
mains on together with the “ABS”

In this case, not only the anti−lock
brake system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely un-
stable during braking.
(b) Driver ’s Seat Belt Reminder Light
and Buzzer
The light and buzzer act as a reminder to
buckle up the driver ’s seat belt.
Once the engine switch is turned to “ON”
or “START”, the reminder light flashes if
the driver ’s seat belt is not fastened. Un-
less the driver fastens the belt, the light
continues flashing.
If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h
(12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened,
the buzzer will sound for 30 seconds.
Then, if the seat belt is still unfastened,
the buzzer will sound in a different tone
for 90 more seconds. Even if the vehicle
speed drops below 20 km/h (12 mph), the
buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the
buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer
still sounds, make sure the front passen-
ger ’s seat belt is fastened.

belt is fastened.
If luggage or other load is placed on the
