NORMAL DRIVING MODE

Leave the system on during the ordi-
nary driving so that it can operate
when needed.

You may hear a sound in the engine
compartment for a few seconds when the
engine is started or just after the vehicle
is started. This means that the traction
control system is in the self–check mode,
but does not indicate a malfunction.

When the traction control system is oper-
ating, the following conditions occur:

The system controls the spinning of the
front wheels. At this time, the slip indi-
cator light blinks.

You may feel vibration or noise in your
vehicle, caused by operation of the
brakes. This indicates the system is
functioning properly.

The slip indicator light comes on for a few
seconds when the ignition key is turned
to “ON”. If the indicator light does not
come on when the ignition is turned on,
contact your Toyota dealer.

TRACTION CONTROL OFF MODE

If your wheels get stuck in an ditch
when you are driving on a severe off
road and sand, turn off the traction
control system. This system that con-
trols engine performance interferes with
the process of freeing your wheels.

To turn off: Push “TRAC OFF” switch.

The “TRAC OFF” indicator light will come
on.

To turn on: Push “TRAC OFF” switch
once again.

The “TRAC OFF” indicator light will go off.
