Emissions lnspection and Maintenance
(I/M) programs
Your vehicle may not pass a state emis-
sion inspection if the malfunction indicator
lamp remains on. Contact your Toyota
dealer to check your vehicle's emission
control system and OBD (On−Board Diag-
nostics) system before taking your vehicle
for the inspection.
For details, see "Emissions Inspection and
Maintenance (I/M) programs" in Section 6.
(g) Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This light comes on when the fuel level
in the tank becomes nearly empty. Fill up
the tank as soon as possible.
On inclines or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than
usual.
(h) "Sequential Manual Transmission"
Warning Light (Sequential manual
transmission only)
This light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to the "ON" position. After
a few seconds, the light will go off. This
means the sequential manual transmission
system is operating properly.
In case the "Sequential
Transmission" warning light comes on, pull
off the road, stop the engine and contact
your Toyota dealer. Although you may be
able to drive your vehicle, the vehicle may
jerk when shifted or the clutch may not
engage properly, causing the vehicle to
jerk due to the malfunction. In some
cases the shift requirement may
canceled, and the gear may be locked.
(i) "ABS" Warning Light
The light comes on when the ignition key
is turned to the "ON" position. If the anti−
lock brake system works properly, the
light turns off after a few seconds. There-
after, if the system malfunctions, the light
comes on again.
When the "ABS" warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti−lock brake system does not operate,
but the brake system still operates con-
ventionally.
When the "ABS" warning light is on (and
the brake system warning light is off), the
anti−lock brake system does not operate
so that the wheels could lock up during
a sudden braking or braking on slippery
road surfaces.
Manual If either of the following conditions
occurs, this indicates
somewhere 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
D
ignition key is turned to the "ON" posi-
be
tion, or remains on.
The light comes on while you are driv-
D
ing.
A warning light turning on briefly during
operation does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
If the "ABS" warning light remains on
together with the brake system warn-
ing light, immediately stop your ve-
hicle at a safe place and contact your
Toyota dealer.
In this case, not only the anti−lock
brake system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely unsta-
ble during braking.
(j) Open Door Warning Light
This light remains on until both the doors
are completely closed.
