Rear differential lock system

The rear differential lock system is pro- vided for use only when wheel spinning occurs in a ditch or on a slippery or ragged surface. This differential lock system is effective in case one of the rear wheels is spinning. Except for Pre Runner models Before using the rear differential lock sys- tem, first shift the front drive control into “L4” to see if it works. If this has no effect, additionally use the rear differential lock system.

CAUTION

Do not use the rear differential lock in the conditions other than above. Large steering effort and careful cor- nering control will be required.

CAUTION

stopped

(cid:1) Do not lock the differential until the wheels have spinning. Otherwise, the vehicle may move in an unexpected direction when the differential lock is engaged, result- ing in an accident. This may also lead to possible damage to differen- tial lock component parts.

(cid:1) Do not drive over 8 km/h (5 mph)

when the differential is locked.

To lock the rear differential, push the switch. Be sure to stop the wheels before locking the differential. For easy locking, depress the clutch ped- al, push the lock switch and slowly re- lease the clutch pedal. the The switch is turned on. Wait a few seconds for the system to complete operation. Af- ter the differential is locked, the light will stop blinking and remain on. The anti–lock brake system does not oper- ate when the rear differential is locked. It is normal operation for the “ABS” warning light to be on at this time.

When the differential lock is disengaged, the indicator light will go out. Except for Pre Runner models The differential will also unlock if you shift the front drive control lever out of “L4”. Never forget to turn off the switch after using this feature.

Cruise control The cruise control allows you to cruise the vehicle at a desired speed over 40
km/h (25 mph) even with your foot off the accelerator pedal. Your cruising speed can be maintained up or down grades within the limits of engine performance, although a slight speed change may occur when driving up or down the grades. On steeper hills, a greater speed change will occur so it is better to drive without the cruise control.

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.

If

(cid:1) 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.

TURNING ON THE SYSTEM To operate the cruise control, press the “CRUISE ON–OFF” button. This turns the system on. The the instrument panel shows that you can now set the vehicle at a desired cruising speed. Another press will turn the system completely off.

CAUTION

To avoid accidental cruise control en- gagement, keep the “CRUISE ON– OFF” switch off when not using the cruise control.

SETTING AT A DESIRED SPEED On vehicles with automatic transmission, the transmission must be in “D” before you set the cruise control speed. Bring your vehicle to the desired speed, push the lever down in the “SET/COAST” direction and release it. This sets the ve- hicle at that speed. If the speed is not satisfactory, 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.

If the preset speed automatically cancels out other than for the above cases, have your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal- er at the earliest opportunity. RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED Push the lever up in the “RES/ACC” direc- tion 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/COAST” direction. RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED Push the lever down in the “SET/COAST” direction 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/COAST” direction.

If you use

On vehicles with automatic transmission, even if you turn off the overdrive switch with the cruise control on, engine braking will not be applied 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. the brake pedal, cruise control is cancelled. RESUMING THE PRESET SPEED If the preset speed is cancelled by pulling the control the brake pedal or clutch pedal, pushing the lever up in the “RES/ACC” direction will restore the speed set prior to cancellation. However, once the vehicle speed falls be- low about 40 km/h (25 mph), the preset speed will not be resumed.

lever or by depressing

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.

CAUTION

For manual transmission: While driving with the cruise control on, do not shift to neutral without depressing the clutch pedal, as this may cause engine racing or over–rev- ving.

CANCELLING THE PRESET SPEED You can cancel the preset speed by: a. Pulling

If this is the case, contact your Toyota dealer and have your vehicle inspected.

To crank the engine without depressing the clutch pedal, push the switch with the ignition on. The switch stays on as long as the igni- tion is on. And it will automatically turn off when the ignition is off. An indicator light will illuminate to indicate the system is operating. This switch cancels the clutch start sys- tem, which is designed to keep the starter motor from operating if the clutch pedal is not depressed all the way down. The switch allows the vehicle to be driven out of difficult situations by cranking the engine with the clutch engaged.

Using your audio system— —Some basics This section describes some of the basic features on Toyota audio systems. Some information may not pertain to your sys- tem. Your audio system works when the ignition key is in the “ACC” or “ON” position. TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF Push “PWR/VOL” or “PWR·VOL” to turn the audio system on and off. Push “AUX” pushing “PWR/VOL” or “PWR·VOL”. You can turn on each player by inserting a cassette tape or compact disc. You can turn off each player by ejecting the cassette tape or compact disc. If the audio system was previously off, then the entire audio system will be turned off when you eject the cassette tape or com- pact disc. If the another function was pre- viously playing, it will come on again. SWITCHING BETWEEN FUNCTIONS Push “CD” or “AUX” if the system is already on but you want to switch from one function to anoth- er.

TONE AND BALANCE For details about your system’s tone and balance controls, see the description of your own system. 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.

YOUR RADIO ANTENNA To remove an antenna, carefully turn it counterclockwise.

NOTICE

To prevent damage to the antenna, make sure it is removed before driv- ing your Toyota through an automatic car wash.

YOUR CASSETTE PLAYER When you insert a cassette, the exposed tape should be to the right.

NOTICE

Do not oil any part of the player and do not insert anything other than cas- sette tapes into the slot, or the tape player may be damaged.

YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER When you insert a disc, gently push it in with the label side up. (The player will automatically eject a disc if the label side is down.) The compact disc player will play from track 1 through the end of the disc. Then it will play from track 1 again. On models with the compact disc auto changer, next disc will be played from track 1.

NOTICE

Never try to disassemble or oil any part of the compact disc player. Do not insert anything except a compact disc into the slot.

The player is intended for use with 12 cm (4.7 in.) discs only.
