WARNING
■Warnings for DC charging
Be sure to observe the following when
using DC charging.
Failure to do so may cause an acci- dent that could lead to death or seri-
ous injury.
●Check that the DC charger and DC charging inlet are not damaged. If
there is any damage to the DC charging inlet, do not perform a DC charge and have it inspected imme-
diately at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not touch the terminals of the DC charging connector or inlet with
metallic sharp tips (wires and nee- dles), or allow a short circuit to occur with foreign objects.
●Do not insert anything other than the DC charging connector into the
DC charging inlet.
●Check that the DC charging cable is
not coiled up or pinned underneath heavy objects.
●Be sure the DC charging inlet makes direct contact with the DC charging connector.
Do not connect conversion adapt- ers, extension cords, etc., between the DC charging connector and DC
charging inlet.
●When DC charging is interrupted,
follow the handling procedures of the DC charger. Immediately stop the DC charging when there is an
outbreak of heat, smoke, strange noises or smells, etc., during charging.
●Check that the DC charging con-nector and DC charging inlet do not have foreign objects or snow or ice
attached to it. If anything is attached to the inlet, be sure to completely remove the material
before connecting the DC charging connector.
●Do not charge the vehicle when there is a possibility of lightning. If you notice lightning while charging
the vehicle, do not touch the vehicle and the DC charging cable.
●Do not get the DC charging inlet terminals wet.
●Close the hood when using DC charging. The cooling fan may sud-denly start to run. Keep hands and
clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) away from the fan. Fail-ure to do so may cause the hands
or clothing to be caught, resulting in serious injury.
■When connecting the DC charging connector
●Follow the handling procedures of
the DC charger to connect the DC charging connector. If the connector is not connected properly, the sys-
tem cannot recognize the connec- tion, and it may be possible to start the EV system.
After charging is completed, make sure to remove the DC charging con-
nector from the DC charging inlet before starting the EV system.
If the vehicle is started off with the
connector still connected, it could lead to an accident, possibly resulting in death or serious injury.
●Do not remove the DC charging connector from the DC charging
inlet during DC charging. After operating the DC charger to stop charging, remove the DC charging
connector from the DC charging inlet.

■When using My Room Mode the fol-lowing may occur
●When the remaining charge of the traction battery drops to the lower
limit, the air conditioning system auto- matically stops. In that case, the air conditioning system can not operate
until the remaining charge of the trac- tion battery increases. Turn off the power switch once, then use My
Room Mode after the remaining charge of the traction battery increases.
●If the doors are unlocked while using My Room mode, the AC charging con-
nector will be unlocked and My Room mode will be stopped. To use My Room mode again, perform the opera-
tion to start it. ( P.145) In addition, when using AC charger at the public charging station, it is necessary to

●Noise may be heard from the radio depending on conditions of the radio
wave.
●The surrounding area of the onboard traction battery charger in the motor
compartment may become hot.
●The electric power steering system
warning light (yellow) may turn on, but this is not a malfunction.
■Using My Room Mode during DC charging

Electric Vehicle system
of the solar charging system operates
• There is a malfunction in the solar charging system
●The amount of power generated by the solar roof differs according to the season, climate, weather conditions,
vehicle angle and surrounding condi- tions.
●If even part of the solar roof is in the shade, there may be an extreme drop in power generation.
●Please adhere to the following in order to allow full performance of the
solar roof. • Clean the roof on a routine basis (Especially fallen leaves and bird
droppings can lead to a substantial decrease in power generation)• Remove snow from the roof as soon
as possible • Do not attach any seals or stickers to the roof
It is recommended not to install a roof carrier etc. unless it is necessary
●When the traction battery is fully charged, charging the battery via the solar charging system is not per-
formed. When it is not necessary to perform charging from an external power source, charge the vehicle as
much as possible using the solar charging system during the day and use the external power source only at
night. As a result, the solar charging system can be used effectively.
●When the vehicle is left in the hot weather, the temperature preservation function of the solar charging system
becomes easy to operate due to high temperature of the vehicle interior.
●Applying a glass coating to the solar roof may change the refractive index of light and reduce the amount of
power generated.
●Small dots, lines, and stains may be
visible inside the solar roof, however there is no problem with the power generation function or safety.
NOTICE
■To protect the solar charging system from damage
●Make sure to observe the following precautions.
• Do not modify the solar roof
• Do not condense sunlight onto the
solar roof
• Do not place anything on top of the
solar roof
• Do not subject the solar roof to
strong impacts or apply force with sharp objects from the inside roof of the vehicle.
●If the solar roof is damaged, do not touch the damaged area and imme-
diately request repairs from any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.

5-1. Before driving
●Drive carefully when it starts to rain,
because the road surface will be especially slippery.
●Refrain from high speeds when driv-ing on an expressway in the rain, because there may be a layer of water
between the tires and the road sur- face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
■Restraining the EV system output
(Brake Override System)
●When the accelerator and brake ped-
als are depressed at the same time, the EV system output may be restrained.
●A warning message is displayed on the multi-information display while the
system is operating.
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observ- ing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 300 km (186 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 800 km (500 miles):
Do not tow a trailer.
●For the first 1000 km (621 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the
“READY” indicator is illuminated. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and
accelerator pedals to avoid depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accel- erator pedal instead of the brake pedal will result in sudden accelera-
tion that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist
your body around, leading to diffi- culty in operating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the
vehicle only slightly. This allows you to depress the brake and accelera-tor pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake
pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency, result-ing in an accident.
●The driver should pay extra atten-tion to pedestrians. As there is no
engine noise, the pedestrians may misjudge the vehicle’s movement. Even though the vehicle is
equipped with the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System, drive with care as pedestrians in the vicinity may still
not notice the vehicle if the sur- rounding area is noisy.
●During normal driving, do not turn off the EV system. Turning the EV system off while driving will not
cause loss of steering or braking control, however, power assist to the steering will be lost. This will
make it more difficult to steer smoothly, so you should pull over and stop the vehicle as soon as it is
safe to do so. In the event of an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the vehicle in the
normal way: P. 5 0 6
