Parking brake
When the parking brake is applied and the ignition is on, the indicator lamp lights up. It should go out when the parking brake is released.
Brake system
Warning! If the warning lamp does not go out after starting the engine or lights up while driving, this indicates that the brake fluid level in the reservoir is too low. Stop immediately, top up the brake fluid and carefully drive to the nearest TOYOTA service center to fix the problem.
The indicator lamp lights up when the brake fluid level is too low. The ignition must be on.
Battery discharge
If the indicator light comes on while driving, you must stop, turn off the engine and check the condition of the alternator drive belt.
If the belt tension is loose or broken, you must not continue driving. The belt condition must be checked and the belt must be replaced if necessary.
Since the battery is continuously discharging, all electrical consumers that are not required to be turned on should be switched off.
Engine oil pressure
The oil pressure warning light is not a means of monitoring the engine oil level. Therefore, the oil level should be checked regularly, preferably at each refueling.
The indicator lamp lights up for a few seconds when the ignition is turned on to check the functionality.
If the indicator light does not go out, you should check the engine oil level and add oil if necessary.
If the indicator lamp lights up or flashes while driving, and the engine speed is over 1500 rpm, stop, turn off the engine, check the oil level and add oil if necessary.
If the warning light is flashing despite the engine oil level being normal, you should not continue driving. The engine should also not idle. Seek qualified assistance.
If the engine runs at excessively low speeds while driving (the speed is lower than the idle speed), it may happen that the oil pressure warning light comes on. Then you should increase the engine speed with the accelerator pedal or shift to a lower gear.
Low engine oil level
The warning light comes on when the engine oil level is below normal. You must stop the car, check and top up the engine oil if necessary.
If the warning light comes on when the oil level is normal, you should contact your nearest TOYOTA service center to have the problem corrected.
Fuel reserve
The indicator light comes on when the fuel level drops to approximately a few liters.
Anti-lock braking system
The warning light warns of a malfunction in the anti-lock braking system.
The indicator lamp lights up after the ignition is turned on or during engine start-up for a few seconds. It goes out after the automatic system operability check is completed.
If the indicator lamp does not light when the ignition is turned on, does not go out after a few seconds after the ignition is turned on, or lights up while driving, then the anti-lock braking system is not in order.
If the anti-lock brake system indicator light comes on while driving, the vehicle may still be braked by one normally functioning service brake system without the anti-lock system. Contact a TOYOTA service facility as soon as possible.
Door open indicator light
It is necessary to close the car doors.
External lighting lamp burnout indicator light
It is necessary to check and, if necessary, replace burnt-out external lighting lamps.
Engine system malfunction indicator light
The indicator lamp lights up when the ignition is turned on and remains lit while the starter is running. The indicator lamp goes out immediately after the engine starts.
If the control lamp comes on while the engine is running, this indicates a malfunction in the engine systems. In this case, the electronic engine control unit switches to emergency mode, which allows you to continue driving. To fix the malfunction, contact the service center.
Do not operate the vehicle for a long time with the indicator lamp on, as this may lead to increased fuel consumption, decreased traction and dynamic properties of the vehicle and serious engine malfunctions. Short-term switching on of the indicator lamp is normal and is not associated with failures in the engine systems.
