The traction control system automatical-
ly helps control the spinning of rear
wheels which may occur when acceler-
ating on slippery road surfaces, by con-
trolling the output of the brake and en-
gine. Thus, the system assists driver to
control the driving power of rear
wheels.
When you turn the ignition switch on, the
traction control system always turns on
automatically, and the slip indicator light
will come on. The indicator lights will go
off after about a few seconds.
If the slip indicator lights is left on after
the ignition is turned on, have your ve-
hicle checked by your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible.
