06 06.07 Keep in mind the following when driving. D The hill−start assist control system op- CY16063 erates for 5 seconds maximally. If both the brake and accelerator pedals remain undepressed for longer than 5 seconds, the buzzer will sound at more frequent intervals and the system will gradually stop operating. If the system continues to operate, the buzzer sound changes from intermittent to continuous. (The continuous buzzer sounds for about 3 seconds.) At this time, the slip indicator light will come on and the hill−start assist control system stops operating temporarily in order to protect the brake actuator. (Although the hill−start assist control system does not operate, it is no problem to continue your driving.) The system will be automatically restored after a short time and the slip indicator light goes out. D The hill−start assist control system is not designed as a function for stopping the vehicle on a uphill slope. When stopping the vehicle, be sure to depress the brake pedal. The brake actuator temperature increases during continuous operation of the downhill assist control system (four−wheel drive models), the traction control system (two− wheel drive models), the active traction control system (four−wheel drive models), the vehicle stability control system and the "AUTO LSD" system (two−wheel drive models) on such as slippery roads. If the brake actuator temperature becomes too high while any of the systems is operating, a buzzer will start to sound intermittently to indicate that the hill−start assist control system can no longer operate. In this case, stop your vehicle immediately at a safe place. When the hill−start assist control system is operating, the slip indicator light flashes and an alarm sounds intermittently. At the same time, the stop lights and high mounted stoplight are lit. 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. 2007 4Runner from Aug. '06 Prod. (OM35866U) 183
