light
The light comes on when the ignition key
is turned to the "ON" position. If the elec-
tric power steering system warning light
works properly, the light turns off after a
few seconds. If the system has malfunc-
tions, the light comes on again.
If the following conditions occur, this
indicates a malfunction somewhere in
the parts monitored by the warning
light system. Contact your Toyota deal-
er as soon as possible to service the
vehicle.

Brake pad wear indicators

PS21502
The brake pad wear indicators on your
disc brakes give a warning noise when
the brake pads are worn to where re-
placement is required.
If you hear a squealing or scraping noise
while driving, have the
checked and replaced by your nearest
Toyota dealer immediately.
Avoid continuous driving with the warning
noise.
Continuous driving without replacing the
brake pads will cause expensive rotor
damage and increasing brake pedal effort
to get the same stopping distance.
