code. In addition to the set of tire pressure warning system se nsor
ID codes initially registered to the vehicle, a second set of ID codes
can be registered.
A second set of tire pressure warning system sensor ID codes ca n
be registered at your Toyota dealer. When 2 sets of ID codes ha ve
been registered, either ID code set can be selected.
Vehicles with a tire inflation pressure display function
Every tire pressure warning valve and transmitter has a unique ID
code. When replacing a tire pressure warning valve and transmit ter,
it is necessary to reg ister the ID codes.
The ID codes can be registered on (4.2-inch display) or (7-
inch display) of the multi-information display.
■Changing the available set of ID codes (vehicles without a tire
inflation pressure display function)

When trouble arises
■Starting the hybrid system when the 12-volt battery is discharg ed
The hybrid system cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the hybrid s ystem is off.
● Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic .
■ When the 12-volt battery is removed or discharged
● Information stored in the ECU is cleared. When the 12-volt batt ery is
depleted, have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
● Some systems may require initialization. ( P. 589)
■ When removing the 12-vo lt battery terminals
When the 12-volt battery terminals are removed, the information stored in the
ECU is cleared. Before removing the 12-volt battery terminals, contact your
Toyota dealer.
■ Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery will discharge gr adually even when
the vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the dra ining effects of
certain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a lon g time, the 12-volt
battery may discharge, and the hybrid system may be unable to start. (The
12-volt battery recharges automatically while the hybrid system is operating.)
■ When recharging or replacing the 12-volt battery
●In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart
key system when the 12-volt battery is discharged. Use the wire less remote
control or the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
● The hybrid system may not start on the first attempt after the 12-volt battery
has recharged but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a
malfunction.
● The power switch mode is memorized by the vehicle. When the 12- volt bat-
tery is reconnected, the system will return to the mode it was in before the
12-volt battery was discharged. Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery,
turn the power switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the power switch was in before the 12-volt bat-
tery discharged, be especially careful when reconnecting the 12 -volt battery.

5527-2. Steps to take in an emergency
After stopping the hybrid system and waiting for 5 minutes or
more, start the hybrid system again and check for the multi-infor-
mation display.
If the message d oes not disappear:
Stop the hybrid system and contact your Toyota dealer.
If the message is not displayed:
The hybrid system temperature has dropped and the vehicle
may be driven normally.
However, if the message appears again frequently, contact your Toyota
dealer.
WARNING
■ To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of
your vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns.
● If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the ho od until
the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot.
● After the hybrid system has been turned off, check that the “READY” indi-
cator is off. When the hybrid system is operating, the gasoline engine may
automatically start, or the cooling fan may suddenly operate even if the
gasoline engine stops. Do not touch or approach rotating parts such as the
fan, which may lead to fingers or clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muf-
fler) getting caught, resulting in serious injury.
● Do not loosen the radiator cap and the coolant reservoir cap while the
hybrid system and radiator are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power control unit coolant
Wait until the hybrid system has cooled down before adding engine/power
control unit coolant.
When adding coolant, do so slowly. Adding cool coolant to a hot hybrid sys-
tem too quickly can cause damage to the hybrid system.
■ To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
● Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sa nd or dust
etc.).
● Do not use any coolant additives.

5748-1. Specifications
■Temperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing
the tire’s resistance to the ge neration of heat and its ability to dissi-
pate heat when tested under contr olled conditions on a specified
indoor laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can c ause the material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead
to sudden tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passeng er
car tires must meet under the Fe deral Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the labo-
ratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades of a tire assume that it is pro perly
inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either sepa-
rately or in combination, can c ause heat buildup and possible t ire
failure.

AVERTISSEMENT
■Précautions relatives aux coussins gonflables SRS
Respectez les précautions suivantes concernant les coussins gonflables
SRS.
Le non-respect de ces précautions peut occasionner des blessures graves,
voire mortelles.
● Le conducteur et tous les passagers du véhicule doivent porter correcte-
ment leur ceinture de sécurité.
Les coussins gonflables SRS sont des dispositifs supplémentaires à utili-
ser avec les ceintures de sécurité.
● Le coussin gonflable conducteur SRS se déploie avec une force c onsidé-
rable, pouvant occasionner des blessures graves, voire mortelles, si le
conducteur se trouve très près du coussin gonflable. L'autorité fédérale
chargée de la sécurité routière aux États-Unis (NHTSA) conseille:
La zone à risque du coussin gonflable conducteur se situant dans les pre-
miers 2 à 3 in. (50 à 75 mm) de déploiement, vous placer à 10 in. (250
mm) de votre coussin gonflable conducteur vous garantit une mar ge de
sécurité suffisante. Cette distance est à mesurer entre le centre du volant
et le sternum. Si vous êtes assis à moins de 10 in. (250 mm), v ous pou-
vez changer votre position de conduite de plusieurs façons:
• Reculez votre siège le plus possible, de manière à pouvoir enc ore
atteindre confortablement les pédales.
• Inclinez légèrement le dossier du siège. Bien que les véhicules aient une conception différente, un grand
nombre de conducteurs peuvent s'asseoir à une distance de 10 in. (250
mm), même avec le siège conducteur complètement avancé, simple-
ment en inclinant un peu le dossier de siège. Si vous avez des difficul-
tés à voir la route après avoir incliné le dossier de votre siè ge, utilisez
un coussin ferme et antidérapant pour vous rehausser ou remontez le
siège si votre véhicule est équipé de cette fonction.
• Si votre volant est réglable, inclinez-le vers le bas. Cela a pour effet d'orienter le coussin gonflable en direction de votre poitrine plutôt quede votre tête et de votre cou.
Réglez votre siège selon les recommandations de la NHTSA ci-des sus,
tout en conservant le contrôle des pédales, du volant et la vue des com-
mandes du tableau de bord.
