This rear height control air suspension controls the vehicle height depending on the vehicle driving conditions. Select your desired height among the “HI” (high), “N” (low) modes with the height select switch. (a) Vehicle height modes “N” (normal) mode— The vehicle height in this mode is stan- dard. Regardless of the number of occu- pants or the luggage loading condition, the vehicle height is always automatically ad- justed to a fixed height in this mode while the engine is running. This mode is suitable for ordinary driving.

than

“HI” (high) mode— The vehicle height is about 40 mm (1.6
in.) higher at rear the “N” mode height. This mode is suitable when driving on the bumpy roads and through water. However, when the vehicle speed exceeds about 30 km/h (19 mph) or over in the “HI” mode, the “N” mode is automatically selected.

CAUTION

The “HI” mode should be used for severe off−road driving condition only. Because the vehicle’s center of gravity is higher in this setting, the vehicle may become unstable when turning abruptly, resulting in accident.

As an added safety feature, your ve- hicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS− tire pressure warning system) that il- luminates a low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) when one or more of your tires is significantly under−inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale (tire pres- sure warning illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig- nificantly under−inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under−inflation also re- duces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s han- dling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS (tire pres- sure warning system) is not a substi- tute for proper tire maintenance, and it to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under−inflation has not reached the level illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light).

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunction indicator to indi- cate when the system is not operat- ing properly. The TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pres- sure (tire pressure warning telltale light). When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subse- quent vehicle start−ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the mal- function indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.

TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS (tire pressure warning sys- tem) functioning properly. Al- ways check the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) to continue to func- tion properly.

Before driving, be sure the parking brake is fully released and the park- ing brake reminder light is off.

Cruise control The cruise control is designed to main- tain a set cruising speed without requir- ing the driver to operate the accelera- tor. Cruising speed can be set to any speed above 40 km/h (25 mph). Within the limits of the engine’s capabili- ties, cruising speed can be maintained up or down grades. However, changes in ve- hicle speed may occur on steeper grades.

CAUTION

D To help maintain maximum control of your vehicle, do not use the cruise control when driving in heavy or varying traffic, or on slip- pery (rainy, icy or snow−covered) or winding roads.

If

D Avoid vehicle speed increases when driving downhill. the vehicle speed is too fast in relation to the cruise control set speed, cancel the cruise control then downshift the transmission to use engine braking to slow down.

CAUTION

To avoid accidentally engaging the cruise control, turn the system off when it is not in use. Make sure the “CRUISE” indicator light is off.

CY16059

SETTING THE CRUISING SPEED The transmission must be in “D” or “4” before you set the cruising speed. Bring your vehicle to the desired speed, push the lever down in the “− SET” direc- tion and release it. This sets the vehicle at that speed. If the speed is not satisfac- tory, tap the lever up for a faster speed, or tap it down for a slower speed. Each tap changes the set speed by 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph). You can now take your foot off the accelerator pedal.

204

If you need acceleration—for example, when passing—depress the accelerator pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed the set speed. When you release it, the vehicle will return to the speed set prior to the acceleration. CANCELLING THE CRUISE CONTROL The cruise control may be temporarily cancelled by the driver or by the system itself under certain circumstances. Tempo- rary cancellation allows the set cruising speed to remain in memory. The cruise control can be temporarily can- celled by doing the following: D Pulling the lever in the “CANCEL” di-

rection and releasing it

D Depressing the brake pedal Under certain circumstances, control is temporarily cancelled: D When vehicle speed

If the cruise control automatically cancels out other than for the above cases, have your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal- er at the earliest opportunity. RESUMING THE CRUISE CONTROL If the cruise control is temporarily can- celled, the cruising speed can be resumed by pushing the lever up in the “+ RES” direction. Vehicle speed must be above 40 km/h (25
mph). RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED Push the lever up in the “+ RES” direction and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held up, the vehicle will gradually gain speed. However, a faster way to reset is to ac- celerate the vehicle and then push the lever down in the “− SET” direction.

RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED Push the lever down in the “− SET” direc- tion and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held down, the vehicle speed will gradually decrease. However, a faster way to reset is to de- press the brake pedal and then push the lever down in the “− SET” direction. Even if you downshift from “D” to “4”, with the cruise control on, engine braking will not be enabled because the cruise control is not cancelled. To decrease the vehicle speed, reset to a slower speed with the cruise control lever or depress the brake pedal. If you use the brake pedal, cruise control is cancelled.

Tone How good an audio program sounds to you is largely determined by the mix of the treble, midrange and bass levels. In fact, different kinds of music and vocal programs usually sound better with differ- ent mixes of treble, midrange and bass.

Balance A good balance of the left and right stereo channels and of the front and rear sound levels is also important. Keep in mind that if you are listening to a stereo recording or broadcast, changing the right/left balance will increase the vol- ume of one group of sounds while de- creasing the volume of another.
