MS14004a
To adjust the headlight beam level, turn
the switch.
The following list shows examples of prop-

other than those listed, adjust the dial
position so that the beam level is the
same as the one obtained according to
the list when only the driver is in the
vehicle. The higher the number of the dial
position, the lower the headlight beam lev-
el.
CAUTION
Always keep the headlight beam at
the proper level, or your headlights
may dazzle other road users, causing
unexpected accidents.

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.

GAUGES, METERS AND SERVICE REMINDER INDICATORS125
MS15003
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.
