reminder

The light and buzzer act as a reminder to buckle up the driver’s seat belt. Once the ignition switch is turned to “ON”, the flashes and buzzer sounds if the driver’s seat belt is not fas- tened. Unless the driver fastens the belt, the light continues flashing and the buzzer sounds for about 6 seconds. If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h (12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened, the buzzer will sound for about 10 sec- onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfas- tened, the buzzer will sound in a different tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle speed drops below 20 km/h (12 mph), the buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer still sounds, make sure the front passen- ger’s seat belt is fastened.

minder Light and Buzzer

The light and buzzer act as a reminder to have the front passenger buckle up the seat belt. Once the ignition switch is turned to “ON”, the reminder light flashes if a passenger sits in the front passenger seat and does not fasten the seat belt. Unless the front passenger fastens the belt, the light con- tinues flashing. If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h (12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened, the buzzer will sound for about 10 sec- onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfas- tened, the buzzer will sound in a different tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle speed drops below 20 km/h (12 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. If luggage or other load is placed on the front passenger seat, depending on its weight, the reminder light may flash and buzzer may sound.

(d) Charging System Warning Light This warning the light comes on when ignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi- tion, and goes off when the engine is started. When there are problems in the charging system while the engine is running, the warning light comes on.

NOTICE

When the charging system warning light comes on while the engine is running, malfunctions such as the en- gine drive belt being broken may have occurred. If the warning light comes on, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place and contact your Toyota dealer.

(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 following. (cid:1) Empty fuel tank

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

(cid:1) 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.

2007 SIENNA from Oct. ’06 Prod. (OM45437U)

If the fuel tank is not empty or the fuel tank cap is not loose... (cid:1) 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. If engine speed does not increase when the accelerator pedal is depressed, there may be a problem somewhere in the elec- tronic throttle control system. At this time, vibration may occur. Howev- er, if you depress the accelerator pedal more firmly and slowly, you can drive your vehicle at low speeds. Have your vehicle checked by your Toyota dealer as soon as possible. Even if the abnormality of the electronic throttle control system is corrected during low speed driving, the system may not be recovered until the engine is stopped and the ignition key to “ACC” or “LOCK” position.

The tire pressure warning light may turn on due to natural causes such as natural air leaks or tire inflation pressure changes caused by temperature. In this case, ad- justing the tire inflation pressure will turn off the light after several minutes. Pushing the tire pressure warning reset switch should not turn off the tire pressure warning light. Adjusting the tire inflation pressure will turn off the light. The compact spare tire is not equipped with the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter. If a tire goes flat, the warning light will not turn off even though the flat tire is replaced with the spare tire. Re- place the spare tire with the repaired tire and adjust the proper tire inflation pressur- e. The tire pressure warning light will turn off after several minutes.

CAUTION

Each tire, including the spare (if pro- vided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label (tire and load information label). (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label (tire and load information label), you should determine the proper tire infla- tion pressure for those tires.)

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.

When tire pressure warning valve and transmitter, it is neces- sary to register the ID code of tire pres- sure warning valve and transmitter. Have the ID code registered by your Toyota dealer. If the ID code is not registered, the sys- tem will not work properly. After about 20
min−drive, the tire pressure warning light comes on after blinking for 1 minute to indicate a system malfunction.

NOTICE

When the tires or tire pressure warn- ing valves and transmitters must be replaced, have them replaced by your Toyota dealer. The tire pressure warn- ing valves and transmitters will be affected by the installation or removal of tires.

TIRE PRESSURE WARNING RESET SWITCH When initializing the system, the present tire inflation pressure is stored as stan- dard. The tire pressure warning system determines decreased air pressure by comparing the present and the standard tire inflation pressures. When you change the set tire inflation pressure, it is neces- sary to initialize the tire pressure warning system.

219

2007 SIENNA from Oct. ’06 Prod. (OM45437U)

To initialize the system, perform the fol- lowing: 1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and turn the ignition key to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position.

2. Adjust the pressure of all the installed tires to the specified cold tire inflation pressure level. (See “Tires” on page 517 in Section 8.)

3. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” posi-

tion.

4. Push and hold the tire pressure warn- ing reset switch until the tire pressure warning light blinks slowly three times. 5. Wait for several minutes with the igni- tion key “ON”, and then turn the igni- tion key to the “ACC” or “LOCK” posi- tion.

If you push the tire pressure reset switch while vehicle is moving, initialization is not performed. If you push the tire pressure reset switch accidentally and initialization is performed, adjust to the specified level and initialize the system again.

CAUTION

Do not push the reset switch without adjusting the tire inflation pressure to the specified level. Otherwise, the tire pressure warning light may not come on even if the tire inflation pressure is low, or it may come on when the tire inflation pressure is actually nor- mal.

If the tire pressure warning light does not blink slowly three times when you push and hold the reset switch, initialization has failed and the tire pressure warning sys- tem may not work properly. In this case, initialize the system again. If initialization cannot be performed, have the system checked at your Toyota dealer.

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

(cid:1) 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.

TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF To turn the cruise control on, press the “ON−OFF” button. The “CRUISE” indicator light on the instrument panel will come on to indicate that the cruise control is opera- tional. Pressing “ON−OFF” button again turns the system off. When the system is turned off, cruising speed must be reset when the cruise con- trol is turned on again. When the ignition is turned off, the system is also automatically turned off. To use cruise control again, press the “ON−OFF” button again to turn it on.

222

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.

2007 SIENNA from Oct. ’06 Prod. (OM45437U)

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: (cid:1) Pulling the lever in the “CANCEL” di-

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.
