Fuel pump shutoff system
In response to a severe impact which
may cause a large amount of vehicle
deformation, the fuel pump shutoff
system stops supplying fuel to the en-
gine to minimize the risk of fuel leak-
age.
The fuel pump shutoff system activates
when the impact detection sensor located
in the footwell of the driver’s seat detects
an impact larger than specified.

If the fuel pump shutoff system has acti-
vated, you can turn on the fuel pump
shutoff system with the reset switch on
the impact detection sensor. To turn on
the fuel pump and reset the shutoff
switch, push the reset switch for longer
than one second with the vehicle parked
on a level surface.
CAUTION
Inspect the ground under the ve-
hicle before resetting the fuel pump
shutoff system. If you find liquid
leakage on the ground, it is prob-
able that the fuel system has been
damaged and is in need of repair.
In this case, do not reset the fuel
pump shutoff system.
Do not strike or kick the impact
detection sensor. The fuel pump
shutoff system may activate, shut-
ting off the motor and placing the
vehicle in a position to be involved
in an unexpected accident.
The fuel pump shutoff system is de-
signed to activate in a collision which may
cause a large amount of vehicle deforma-
tion. It does not operate in a small im-
pact.

Antilock brake system is not de-
signed to shorten the stopping dis-
tance: Always drive at the moderate
speed and maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front of you.
Compared with vehicles without an
antilock brake system, your vehicle
may require a longer stopping dis-
tance in the following cases:
Driving on rough, gravel or snow
covered roads.
Driving with tire chains installed.
Driving over the steps such as the
joints on the road.
Driving on roads where the road
surface is pitted or has other differ-
ences in surface height.
Install all 4 tires of specified size at
appropriate pressure: The antilock
brake system detects vehicle speeds
using the speed sensors for respec-
tive wheels’ turning speeds. The use
of tires other than specified may fail
to detect the accurate turning speed,
resulting in a longer stopping dis-
tance.
“ABS” warning light
The light comes on when the ignition
key is turned to the “ON” position. If
the antilock brake system and the
brake assist system work properly, the
light turns off after a few seconds.
Thereafter, if either of the systems mal-
functions, the light comes on. When the “ABS” warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
antilock brake system, the brake assist
system, the vehicle skid control system
and/or active traction control system do/
does 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
antilock brake system does not operate
so that the wheels could lock up during
a sudden braking or braking on slippery
road surfaces.
If either of the following conditions oc-
curs, this indicates a malfunction some-
where in the parts 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 key is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion, 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.
