(c) Front Passenger's Seat Belt
minder Light
The light remind you to buckle up the
driver's seat belt.
Once the ignition key is turned to "ON" or
"START", the reminder light flashes if a
passenger sits in the front passenger seat
and the front passenger's seat belt is not
pulled out. Unless the front passenger
starts to pull the shoulder belt out of the
retractor, the light keeps flashing.
If luggage load is placed on the front
passenger seat, depending on its weight
and how it is placed on the seat, built- in
sensors in the seat cushion may detect
the pressure, causing the reminder light to
come on.
(d) Discharge Warning Light
This light warns that the battery is being
discharged.
If it comes on while you are driving, there
is a problem somewhere in the charging
system.
The engine ignition will continue to oper-
ate, however, until the battery is dis-
charged. Turn off the air conditioning,
blower, radio,etc., and drive directly to the
nearest Toyota dealer or repair shop.

This light warns that the engine oil pres-

If it flickers or stays on while you are
