In section 2-2 of the Owner's manual (page 160, 161 in the 2009 manual) there is an asterisk next to each indicator light description for the lights that should turn on during the lamp test (ignition on).

The tire pressure light (tire cross section with exclamation point) does have an asterisk. The slip indicator on the cluster is between the battery icon and the 4wd on the cluster. It also has an asterisk. So they should come on during the lamp test.

if you turn on the 4wd "lock" button the 4wd indicator should come on. if it does not there is a problem.

My slip indicator doesn't come on either so yours may be normal.
My TPMS does come on. Yours may not because your RAV4 may not have TPMS.

I has a slip indicator. I comes on when I slide it around in snow. Just doesn't come on at startup.

All I know about TPMS is that USA has it on all models, Base, Sport & Limited, and Canada doesn't have it on any. Iraq - I don't know.
