7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■ If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on while driving
For some models, malfunction indicator lamp will come on if the fuel tank
becomes completely empty. If the fuel tank is empty, refuel the vehicle imme-
diately. The malfunction indicator lamp will go off after several trips.
If the malfunction indicator lamp does not go off, contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional
as soon as possible.
■
Key reminder buzzer
The buzzer indicates that the key has not been removed with the engine off
and the driver's door opened.
■
If the DPF system warning light comes on (if equipped)
The deposit collected in the filter needs to be regenerated.
To regenerate the filter, the following driving methods are recommended
●
By driving continuously (for example, at around 60 km/h [37 mph] for
approximately 20 minutes).
●
By avoiding short trips, or by driving continuously (leaving the engine run-
ning for long periods of time).
The DPF system warning light will extinguish when regeneration is complete.
However, if this driving cannot be carried out, or if the light does not extin-
guish even after driving, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional imme-
diately.
