The fans operate when the air conditioning system is turned on immedi-
ately after a cold start. Confirm that the fans are operating b y checking
the fan sound and air flow. If it is difficult to check these, turn the air con-
ditioning system on and off repeatedly.

Have the vehicle inspected at the neare st Toyota dealer.
WARNING
■When inspecting under th e hood of your vehicle

system and radiator are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant could spray out.
