The Daytime Running Light (DRL) system
can make it easier for others to see the
front of your vehicle during the day. The
DRL system can be helpful in many differ-
ent driving conditions, but they can be
especially helpful in the short periods after
dawn and before sunset.
The DRL system will make your headlights
come on at a reduced brightness when:
The ignition is on with the engine run-
ning.
The light switch is in the “AUTO” posi-
tion with the headlights off or position
1.
The parking brake is released.
To turn on the other exterior lights and
instrument panel lights, twist the knob to
position 1.
Twist the knob to position 2 to turn the
headlights to full intensity for night driving.
To turn off the DRL system, twist the knob
to the position 3 (“DRL OFF”) or turn the
ignition switch off.
The daytime running light system can be
disabled. For details, contact your Toyota
dealer.

(a) Brake System Warning Light and
Buzzer
This light comes on in the following cases
when the ignition switch is set at ON.
When the parking brake is applied...
This light comes on for a few seconds
when the ignition switch is set at ON even
after the parking brake is released.
If the vehicle speed rises above 5 km/h
(3 mph) with the parking brake applied for
1 seconds or more, a buzzer sounds.
When the brake fluid level is low...
CAUTION
It is dangerous to continue driving
normally when the brake fluid level is
low.
Have your vehicle checked at your
Toyota dealer in the following cases:
The light does not come on even if the
parking brake is applied when the igni-
tion switch is set at ON.
The light does not come on even if the
ignition switch is set at ON with the
parking brake released.A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
If either of the following conditions
occurs, immediately stop your vehicle
at a safe place and contact your
Toyota dealer.
The light does not turn off even
after the parking brake is released
while the engine is running.
In this case, the brakes may not
work properly and your stopping
distance will become longer. De-
press the brake pedal firmly and
bring the vehicle to an immediate
stop.
The brake system warning light re-
mains on together with the “ABS”
warning light.
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 ignition switch is set at ON or
engine start, the reminder light flashes
and buzzer sounds if the driver ’s seat belt
is not fastened. Unless the driver fastens
the belt, the light continues flashing and
the buzzer sounds for about 6 seconds.
If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h
(12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened,
the buzzer will sound for about 10 sec-
onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfas-
tened, the buzzer will sound in a different
tone for 20 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.
The vehicle speed linked seat belt remind-
er buzzer can be disabled. For details,
contact your Toyota dealer.
However, Toyota recommends that the
seat belt reminder buzzer be operational
to alert the driver and front passenger that
the seat belts are not fastened.

(h) “ABS” Warning Light
Vehicles without vehicle stability control
system—
The light comes on with the ignition
switch is set at ON. If the anti−lock brake
system works properly, the light turns off
after a few seconds. Thereafter, if the
system malfunctions, the light comes on
again.
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti−lock brake system does not operate,
but the brake system still operates con-
ventionally.
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti−lock brake system does not operate,
so the wheels could lock up during a sud-
den 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
ignition switch is set at ON or remains
on.
The light comes on while you are driv-
ing.
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.
Vehicles with vehicle stability control
system—
The light comes on when the ignition
switch is set at ON. If the anti−lock brake
system and the brake assist system work
properly, the light turns off after a few
seconds. Thereafter, if the system mal-
functions, the light comes on again.
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti−lock brake system and the brake as-
sist system do not operate, but the brake
system still operates conventionally.
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti−lock brake system does not operate,
so the wheels could lock up during a sud-
den braking or braking on slippery road
surfaces.

er ’s seat position sensor, driver ’s seat belt

plied, there is no problem to continue driv-
ing.
