The buzzer can be set not to sound by
following the procedure below.1. Sit on the front passenger seat.
2. Turn the ignition key to the “OFF” posi- tion with the odometer reading shown.
(For details, see “Odometer and two
trip meters” on page 100 in this Sec-
tion.)
3. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” posi- tion.
4. Within 6 seconds, push the trip meter reset knob and hold it for more than
10 seconds.
5. Insert the tab of front passenger seat belt into the buckle.
6. The odometer shows either “b −on” or
“b −off”. The reading changes by push-
ing the trip meter reset knob and the
setting of the front passenger seat belt
reminder buzzer can be changed. The
odometer display returns to normal if
the meter reset knob has not been
operated for more than 10 seconds or
the ignition key is turned to the “OFF”
position. (d) Charging System Warning Light
This warning light comes on when the
ignition key is turned to the “ON” position,
and goes off when the engine is started.
When there are problems in the charging
system while the engine is r
unning, the
warning light comes on.
NOTICE
When the charging system warning
light comes on while the engine is
running, malfunctions such as the en-
gine drive belt being broken may have
occurred. If the warning light comes
on, immediately stop the vehicle in a
safe place and contact your Toyota
dealer.
(e) Low Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light warns that the engine oil pres-
sure is too low.
If it flickers or stays on while you are
driving, pull off the road to a safe place
and stop the engine immediately. Call a
Toyota dealer or qualified repair shop for
assistance.
The light may occasionally flicker when
the engine is idling or it may come on
briefly after a hard stop. There is no
cause for concern if it then goes out when
the engine is accelerated slightly.
The light may come on when the oil level
is extremely low. It is not designed to
indicate low oil level, and the oil level
must be checked using the level dipstick.
NOTICE
Do not drive the vehicle with the
warning light on—even for one block.
It may ruin the engine.

(h) Engine Oil Replacement ReminderLight (for vehicles sold in U.S.A.)
This light acts as a reminder to replace
the engine oil.
This light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to “ON” and will go off after
about a few seconds.
When you drive for about 7200 km (4500
miles) after the engine oil replacement,
this light illuminates for about 3 seconds
and then flashes for about 12 seconds
with the ignition key turned to the “ON”
position. If you continue driving without
the engine oil replacement, and if the driv-
ing range exceeds 8000 km (5000 miles),
the light will come on after the ignition
key is turned to the “ON” position. The
light will remain on thereafter.
If the light is flashing, we recommend that
you replace the engine oil at an early
opportunity depending on the driving and
road condition. If the light comes on, re-
place it as soon as possible. You need to reset the light after the en-
gine oil replacement. Reset the light by
following the procedure below:
1. Turn the ignition key to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position with the odometer
reading shown. (For details, see
“Odometer and two trip meters” on
page 100 in this Section.)
2. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” posi- tion while holding down the trip meter
reset knob.
Hold down the knob for at least 5 sec-
onds. The indicator light flashes and the
bars displayed in the odometer disappear
gradually. The odometer indicates “000000”
and the light goes off.
If the system fails to reset, the light will
remain flashing.
(i) “ABS” Warning Light
The light comes on when the ignition key
is turned to the “ON” position. If the anti −
lock brake system and the brake assist
system work properly, the light turns off
after a few seconds. Thereafter, if either
of the systems malfunctions, the light
comes on again. When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
following systems do not operate, but the
brake system still operates conventionally.
Anti
−lock brake system
Brake assist system
Traction control system
Active traction control system
(four −wheel drive models with rear dif-
ferential lock)
“AUTO LSD” system
(two −wheel drive models)
Vehicle stability control system
When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti −lock brake system does not operate,
so that the wheels will lock up during a
sudden braking or braking on slippery
road surfaces.

(n) Unengaged “Park” Warning Light(fourwheel drive models)
This light warns that the transmission
“Park” mechanism is not engaged. If the
four −wheel drive control lever is in the “N”
position while the selector lever is in the
“P” position, the transmission will disen-
gage and the wheels will not lock.
CAUTION
To restore the park function, shift the
fourwheel drive control lever out of
“N”, or the vehicle can move.
(o) Key Reminder Buzzer
This buzzer acts as a reminder to remove
the key when you open the driver’s door
with the ignition key in the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position. CHECKING SERVICE REMINDER
INDICATORS (except the low fuel level
warning light)
1. Apply the parking brake.

3. Close the door and back window. The open door warning light should go
off.
4. Turn the ignition key to “ON”, but do not start the engine.
All the service reminder indicators ex-
cept the open door warning light should
come on.
The following service reminder indica-
tors go off after a few seconds:
Engine oil replacement reminder light
“ABS” warning light
“VSC TRAC” warning light
“AUTO LSD” indicator light
(two −wheel drive models)
“VSC OFF” indicator light
(four− wheel drive models, and vehicles
with rear differential lock)
Slip indicator light The SRS warning light goes off after
about 6 seconds.
There may be the case that the “ABS”
warning light (brake assist system
warning light), “VSC TRAC” warning
light and “AUTO LSD” (two
−wheel drive
models), “VSC OFF” (four −wheel drive
models, and vehicles with rear differen-
tial lock) or slip indicator light stay on
for about 60 seconds after the ignition
key is turned to the “ON” position. It
is normal if they go out after a while.
If any service reminder indicator or warn-
ing buzzer does not function as described
above, have it checked by your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible.
