Adjust the mirror so that you can just see the side of your vehicle in the mir- ror. Be careful when judging the size or dis- tance of any object seen in the outside rear view mirror on the passenger’s side because it is a convex mirror. Any object seen in a convex mirror will look smaller and farther away than when seen in a flat mirror. On some models, when you push the rear window defogger switch, the heater panels in the outside rear view mirrors will quick- ly clear the mirror surface. (See “Rear window and outside rear view mirror de- foggers” on page 111 in Section 1−5.)


CAUTION


D Do not adjust the mirror while the vehicle is moving. Doing so may cause the driver to mishandle the vehicle and an accident may occur resulting in death or serious inju- ries.


D Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch them when the defogger switch is on.

Fuel gauge


Engine coolant temperature gauge


Low fuel level warning light


On inclines or curves, due to the move- ment of fuel in the tank, the fuel gauge needle may fluctuate or the low fuel level warning light may come on earlier than usual. If the fuel tank is completely empty, the malfunction indicator lamp comes on. Fill the fuel tank immediately. The indicator lamp goes off after driving several times. If the indicator lamp does not go off, contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.


indicates


The gauge the approximate quantity of fuel remaining in the tank when the ignition switch is on. Nearly full—Needle at “F” Nearly empty—Needle at “E” It is a good idea to keep the tank over 1/4 full. The gauge remains for about 10 minutes after the ignition switch is turned off. Turn the headlight switch off and then on to illuminate the instrument cluster. If the fuel level approaches “E” or the low fuel level warning light comes on, fill the fuel tank as soon as possible.


114


The gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature when the ignition switch is on. The engine operating temperature will vary with changes in weather and engine load. If the needle moves into the red zone, your engine is too hot. If your vehicle overheats, stop your vehicle and allow the engine to cool.

Tachometer


Odometer and two trip meters


Your vehicle may overheat during severe operating conditions, such as: D Driving up a long hill on a hot day. D Reducing speed or stopping after high


speed driving.


D Idling for a long period with the air conditioning on in stop−and−go traffic.


D Towing a trailer.


NOTICE


z Do not remove the thermostat


in the engine cooling system as this may cause the engine to overheat. The thermostat is designed to con- trol the flow of coolant to keep the temperature of the engine within the specified operating range.


z Do not continue driving with an overheated engine. See “If your ve- hicle overheats” on page 262 in Section 4.


The tachometer indicates engine speed in thousands of rpm (revolutions per minute). Use it while driving to select correct shift points and to prevent en- gine lugging and over−revving. Driving with the engine running too fast causes excessive engine wear and poor fuel economy. Remember, in most cases the slower the engine speed, the greater the fuel economy.


NOTICE


Do not let the indicator needle get into the red zone. This may cause severe engine damage.

CAUTION


If either of the following conditions occurs, immediately stop your vehicle at a safe place and contact your Toyota dealer. D The


light does not turn off even after the parking brake is released while the engine is running. In this case, the brakes may not work properly and your stopping distance will become longer. De- press the brake pedal firmly and bring the vehicle to an immediate stop.


D The brake system warning light re- mains on together with the “ABS” warning light. In this case, not only the anti−lock brake system will fail but also the vehicle will become extremely un- stable during braking.


The light and buzzer act as a reminder to buckle up the driver’s seat belt. Once the ignition key is turned to “ON” or “START”, the reminder light flashes and buzzer sounds if the driver’s seat belt is not fastened. Unless the driver fastens the belt, the light continues flashing and the buzzer stops after about 6 seconds. If the vehicle speed rises above 15 km/h (9 mph) with the seat belt unfastened, the buzzer will sound for about 10 seconds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfastened, the buzzer will sound in a different tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle speed drops below 15 km/h (9 mph), the buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer still sounds, make sure the front passenger’s seat belt is fastened.

The engine ignition will continue to oper- the battery ate, however, until is dis- charged. Turn off the air conditioning, blower, radio, etc., and drive directly to the nearest Toyota dealer or repair shop.


NOTICE


Do not continue driving if the engine drive belt is broken or loose.


(e) Malfunction Indicator Lamp This lamp comes on when the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position and goes off after the engine starts. This means that the warning light system is operating properly.


If the lamp remains on, or the lamp comes on while driving, first check the followings. D Empty fuel tank


If the fuel tank is empty, refuel immedi- ately.


D Loose fuel tank cap


If the fuel tank cap is loose, securely tighten it.


These cases are temporary malfunctions. The malfunction indicator lamp will go off after taking several driving trips. If the lamp does not go off even after several trips, contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible. If the fuel tank is not empty or the fuel tank cap is not loose... D There is a problem somewhere in the engine, emission control system, elec- tronic throttle control system, automatic transmission electrical system or warn- ing light system itself.


Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible to service the vehicle.


(c) Front Passenger’s Seat Belt Re-

The light and buzzer act as a reminder to have the front passenger buckle up the 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 does not fasten the seat belt. If the vehicle speed rises above 15 km/h (9 mph) with the seat belt unfastened, the buzzer will sound for about 10 seconds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfastened, the buzzer will sound in a different tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle speed drops below 15 km/h (9 mph), the buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer still sounds, make sure the driver’s seat belt is fastened.
