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 ac\
cel-
erator pedals to avoid depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the brake
pedal will result in sudden acceleration that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to difficulty 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 attention to pedestrians when the fuel cell sys-
tem is on. As there are no engine sounds, pedestrians may misjudge the
vehicle’s movement.
● During normal driving, do not turn off the fuel cell system. Turning the fuel
cell system off while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking con-
trol, 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 vehi-
cle 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. 361
● Do not adjust the positions of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or
outside rear view mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control.
● Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their body
are not outside the vehicle.

Starting the fuel cell system in cold temperatures
●When the power switch is pressed and the fuel cell system starts ( P. 172)
during cold temperatures, the fuel cell stack is quickly warmed up using the
waste heat during power generation.
● When the temperatures is cold, it may take some time until the “READY”
indicator turns on.
● The power output will be temporarily limited until the fuel cell system
reaches full operating temperature.
● The fuel cell system noises may become louder when the temperature is
cold. This is the normal warm-up operation and is not a malfunction. In
some cases, operation noises may continue for a some time even after the
“READY” indicator has turned on. ( P. 80)
■ Stopping the fuel cell system in cold temperatures
●When the power switch is pressed and the fuel cell system is stopped
( P. 173) during cold temperatures, the time for water purge from the
tailpipe may be longer than usual to prevent liquid in the fuel cell stack
from freezing.
● The water purge time may also be long if the system is stopped before fuel
cell system warm-up is completed.
● It is normal to hear hissing and other sounds during purge. ( P. 80)
● The H
2O indicator on the meter will illuminate during purge.
●
In extremely cold temperatures, the
“READY” indicator may take more than
10 seconds to illuminate. In this case,
the status progression of the fuel cell
system startup is displayed on the multi-
information display.

1765-2. Driving procedures
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62004U■
Parking in cold temperatures
●Water may automatically purge from the tailpipe, even when the fuel cell
system is off, in order to prevent liquid in the fuel cell stack, hydrogen pipe-
lines, etc., from freezing while parked during cold temperatures.
● It is normal to hear hissing and other sounds during purge. ( P. 80)
● The H
2O indicator on the meter will illuminate during purge.
● Before storing the vehicle for extended periods of time in a location with
freezing temperatures, perform a cold-weather manual purge:
Turn the power switch to ON mode and press the H
2O switch.
Check that the H
2O indicator on the meter turns on.
While depressing the brake, press the power switch to start the fuel cell
system.
Check that the “READY” indicator turns on.
Press the power switch to stop the fuel cell system.
The water release is automatically performed. During water purge, the
H
2O indicator turns on. (Longer than normal water purge)

■ Operation of the power switch
When operating the power switch, one short, firm press is enough. If the
switch is pressed improperly, the fuel cell system may not start or the power
switch mode may not change. It is not necessary to press and hold the
switch.
■ Automatic P position selection function
●When the shift position is other than P, pressing the power switch with the
vehicle stopped completely will cause the shift position to change to P auto-
matically, and then the power switch will turn off.
● When turning the power switch off with the shift position other than P, firmly
depress the brake pedal and confirm that the shift position* has changed to
P before slowly releasing the brake pedal.
*: Even after the instrument panel display has been turned off, the shift
position indicator will continue to be displayed for several seconds.
■ If the shift control system malfunctions
The power switch will not be able to be turned off. In this occurs, the switch
can be turned off by applying the parking brake.
If the system malfunctions, have your vehicle serviced by your Toyota dealer
immediately.
■ If the smart key system has been deactivated in a customized setting
P. 436
WARNING
■When starting the fuel cell system
Always start the fuel cell system while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not
depress the accelerator pedal while starting the fuel cell system under any
circumstances.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
■ Stopping the fuel cell system in an emergency
If you want to stop the fuel cell system in an emergency while driving the
vehicle, press and hold the power switch for more than 2 seconds, or press
it briefly 3 times or more in succession. ( P. 361)
However, do not touch the power switch while driving except in an emer-
gency. Turning the fuel cell 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.
