Theft deterrent system
To deter the vehicle theft, the system
is designed to give an alarm if any of
the front, sliding or back doors or hood
is forcibly unlocked or the battery ter-
minal is disconnected and then recon-
nected when the vehicle is locked.
The alarm blows the horn intermittently
and flashes the headlights, tail lights and
other exterior lights.SETTING THE SYSTEM
1. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK”
position and remove it.
The indicator light will start flashing when
the key is removed from the ignition
switch. (See “Engine immobiliser system”
for details.)
2. Have all passengers get out of the
vehicle.
3. Close the front, sliding and back doors
and hood. Then lock all the doors with
the key or wireless remote control
transmitter.
The indicator light will come on when the
front, sliding and back doors and hood are
closed and locked.As the doors are locked, the system will
give you a preparation time of 30 seconds
before the setting, during which the front,
sliding or back doors and hood may be
opened.
Be careful not to unlock any door with the
key or wireless remote control transmitter
during setting. This will cancel the system.
4. After making sure the indicator light
starts flashing, you may leave the ve-
hicle.
The system will automatically be set after
the preparation time passes. The indicator
light will flash to show the system is set.
If any of the front, sliding or back doors
or hood is open at that time, the setting
is interrupted until it is closed and locked.
Never leave anyone in the vehicle when
you set the system, because unlocking
from the inside will activate the system.

CAUTION
Under certain slippery road condi-
tions, full traction of the vehicle and
power to the front wheels may not be
maintained, even though the traction
control system is in operation. Do not
drive the vehicle at any speed or con-
duct any during maneuver which will
cause the vehicle to lose traction. In
situations where the road surface is
covered with ice or snow, your ve-
hicle should be fitted with snow tires
or tire chains. Always drive at an ap-
propriate and cautious speed for the
road conditions present.
Vehicle skid control system
Slip indicator light
“VSC” warning light
“TRAC OFF” indicator/warning light
The vehicle skid control system helps
provide comprehensive control of the
systems such as an anti−lock brake
system, brake assist system, traction
control system, engine control system,
etc. This system automatically controls
the output of the brakes or engine to
help prevent the vehicle from skidding
when cornering on a slippery road sur-
face or abrupt steering wheel operation
occurs.
If the vehicles is going to skid during
driving, the slip indicator light flashes and
an alarm sounds intermittently.

The vehicle skid control system activates
when the vehicle speed is about more
than 15 km/h (9 mph).
While the “VSC” warning light and “TRAC
OFF” indicator/warning light come on, the
vehicle skid control system cannot be op-
erated.
You may hear a sound in the engine
compartment for a few seconds when the
engine is started or just after the vehicle
is started. This means that the vehicle
skid control is in the self−check mode and
does not indicate a malfunction.CAUTION
Do not rely excessively on the ve-
hicle skid control system. Even if
the vehicle skid control system is
operating, it is not that your vehicle
is absolutely safe. Reckless driving
will result in an unexpected acci-
dent. Always keep safety driving in
mind. If the slip indicator light fla-
shes and/or an alarm sounds, spe-
cial care should be taken while
driving.
Only use tires of specified size. The
size, manufacturer, brand and tread
pattern for all 4 tires should be the
same. If you use the tires other
than specified, or different type or
size, the vehicle skid control sys-
tem may not function correctly.
When replacing the tires or wheels,
contact your Toyota dealer.
VEHICLE SKID CONTROL SYSTEM
FAILURE WARNING
These lights warn that when there is a
problem somewhere in the vehicle skid
control system.
The lights will come on when the ignition
key is turned to “ON”, and will go off after
about a few seconds.
If the “VSC” warning light and “TRAC
OFF” indicator/warning light come on, the
vehicle skid control system does not work.
However, as conventional braking operates
when applied, there is no problem to con-
tinue your driving.
If any of the following conditions occur,
this indicates a malfunction somewhere in
the parts monitored by the warning light
system. Contact your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible to service the vehicle:
The “VSC” warning light and “TRAC
OFF” indicator/warning light do not
come on after the ignition is turned to
on.
The “VSC” warning light and/or “TRAC
OFF” indicator/warning light are left on
after the ignition is turned to on.
