WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce
the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
●Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat
tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an acci-
dent and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
●Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads.
●When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start to
feel tired.
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con-
tinue driving and take a break immediately.

*1: These lights turn on when the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position
(vehicles without a smart key system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles
with a smart key system) to indicate that a system check is being per-
formed. They will turn off after the engine is started, or after a few seconds.
There may be a malfunction in a system if a light does not come on, or turn
off. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
*2: This light does not turn on when the system is disabled.
*3: This light turns on when the system is off.
*4: This light flashes to indicate that the system is operating.
*5: These indicators will illuminate in the following situations to indicate that
the system initial check is being performed:
• When the BSM function or RCTA function is enabled and the engine
switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart key sys-
tem) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system).
• When the engine switch is in the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart
key system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system)
and the BSM function is enabled.
• When the engine switch is in the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart
key system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system)
and the RCTA function is enabled. (At this time, a buzzer will also
sound.)
The indicators will turn off after a few seconds. If the indicators do not
illuminate or turn off, or if a buzzer does not sound when the RCTA func-
tion is enabled, the system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer.
*6: This light illuminates on the outside rear view mirrors.
*7: This light illuminates on the center panel.
*8: When the outside temperature is approximately 37°F (3°C) or lower, this
indicator will flash for approximately 10 seconds, then stay on.
WARNING
■If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS warning lights not
come on when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems are
not available to help protect you in an accident, which could result in death
or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immedi-
ately if this occurs.
