Headlights and turn signals

HEADLIGHTS
To turn on the following lights: Twist the
headlight/turn signal lever knob.
Position 1—Parking, tail, licence plate and
instrument panel lights
The tail indicator light (green light) on the in-
strument panel will tell you that the tail lights
are on.
Position 2—Headlights and all of the above
Position 3 (AUTO)—Headlights and all of the
lights in position 1.
The lights automatically turn on or off de-
pending on the darkness of the surroundings.
Manually twist the knob to position 2 to turn
on the headlights if they are needed immedi-
ately when entering a dark tunnel or parking
structure, etc.
When the tail lights/headlights are turned on,
the brightness of the instrument cluster will
be reduced slightly unless the instrument
panel light control knob is turned fully clock-
wise.
However, the brightness of the instrument
cluster will not be reduced in daytime even
when the tail lights/headlights are turned on.

The automatic light control sensor is on the
top of the instrument panel.
Do not place anything on the instrument
panel, and/or do not affix anything on the
windshield to block this sensor.
The sensitivity of a sensor can be adjusted
and time to a tail light reaction can be leng-
thened slightly. For details, ask your Toyota
dealer.
Automatic light cut off system
The lights automatically turn off when the
driver's door is opened with the ignition
switch off.
To turn on the lights again, set the ignition
to ON or operate the headlight switch. If you
are going to park for over one week, make
sure the headlight switch is off.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being dis-
charged, do not leave the lights on for
a long period when the engine is not run-
ning.
