8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■
Electric power steering system warning light (warning buzzer)
When the 12-volt battery charge becomes insufficient or the voltage tempo-
rarily drops, the electric power steering system warning light may come on
and the warning buzzer may sound.
■
Front passenger detection sensor, seat belt reminder and warning
buzzer
●
If luggage is placed on the front passenger seat, the front passenger detec-
tion sensor may cause the warning light to flash and the warning buzzer to
sound even if a passenger is not sitting in the seat.
●
If a cushion is placed on the seat, the sensor may not detect a passenger,
and the warning light may not operate properly.
■
When the tire pressure warning light comes on
Inspect the appearance of the tire to check that the tire is not punctured.
If the tire is punctured: P. 511, 529
If the tire is not punctured:
Carry out the following procedure after the tire temperature has lowered suffi-
ciently.
●
Check the tire inflation pressure and adjust to the appropriate level.
●
If the warning light does not go out even after several minutes, check that
the tire inflation pressure is at the specified level and carry out initialization.
(P. 438)
The warning light may come on again if the above operations are conducted
without first allowing the tire temperature to lower sufficiently.
