that's cool if its true.
last time it showed I had low washer fluid and I put a washer fluid and later the warning sign disapeared.
Will there be warning sign for like tire problems, engine oils, power steering oils, break oils and low coolant?

Err, no.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) on your Camry warns if your tire pressure is dangerously low.
I would advise you check the tire pressure yourself ($10 at your local pepboys/autozone or what-have-you for a tire pressure gauge and about 5-10 mins of your time).
Low tire pressure leads to poor fuel economy and increased tire wear (which means you have to replace your tires earlier).'
Also it does NOT tell you when to rotate. You rotate it to even out tire wear (cause the front will wear out faster than the rear). Usually rotate it at least once a year or every 10,000 miles. (i.e. every 2nd service).
Yes, there are warning lights for all that except brake fluid (if you have leak in brake fluid, I'd be worried lol).
