Associated warning lamps
Two successive alert levels indicate that the energy available has dropped to a low level:
1st level: ReserveThe state of charge of the traction battery is low.Fixed and indicator in the red zone, accompanied by an audible signal.► View the remaining range on the instrument panel.► Put the vehicle on charge as soon as possible.2nd level: CriticalThe state of charge of the traction battery is critical.Fixed, together with the reserve warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal.► You must put the vehicle on charge.
WARNI NG
The remaining range is no longer calculated. The drive train power gradually decreases.The heating and air conditioning are switched off (even if the thermal comfort consumption indicator in not at the "ECO" position).
Thermal comfort consumption
indicator (Electric)
The gauge shows the consumption of the traction battery's electrical energy by the thermal comfort devices in the passenger compartment.
The devices in question are the heating and air conditioning systems.This equipment can be used:– If the vehicle is not plugged in, when the READY lamp is lit.– If the vehicle is plugged in, when the ignition is switched on ("Lounge" mode).Selecting ECO mode limits the performance of some of this equipment. The needle on the thermal comfort consumption indicator then moves into the "ECO" zone.
NOTIC E
To quickly heat or cool the passenger compartment, feel free to temporarily select the maximum heating or cooling setting.When the heating is on maximum, the gauge on the thermal comfort consumption indicator is in the MAX zone. When the air conditioning is on maximum, it stays in the ECO zone.Excessive use of thermal comfort equipment, particularly at low speed, can significantly decrease the vehicle's range.Remember to optimise equipment settings upon achieving the desired level of comfort, and adjust them if necessary whenever you start the vehicle.After an extended period without using the heating, you may notice a slight odour during the first few minutes of use.

On the inside
During use, you may hear certain perfectly normal noises specific to electric vehicles, such as:– Traction battery relay when starting.– Vacuum pump when braking.– Vehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.– Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.
In case of towing
WARNI NG
Driving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and requires extra care from the driver.
NOTIC E
Respect the maximum towable weights.At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 10% per 1,000 metres (3,280 ft) of altitude; the density of the air decreases with altitude and the performance of the engine reduces.
WARNI NG
New vehicle: do not pull a trailer before having driven at least 1,000 kilometres (620 miles).
NOTIC E
If the outside temperature is high, let the engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight (at the point where it joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
NOTIC E
If a genuine TOYOTA towing device is used, the rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically to avoid the audible signal.

When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant temperature to increase. The maximum towable load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not increase with engine speed.► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to limit the amount of heating produced.► Pay constant attention to the coolant temperatureIf this warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The remote control contains an electronic chip which has a special code. When the ignition is switched on, this code must be recognised in order for starting to be possible.A few seconds after switching off the ignition, this system locks the engine control system, therefore preventing the engine from being started in the event of a break-in.In the event of a fault, you are informed by illumination of this warning lamp, an audible signal and a message on the screen.The vehicle will not start; contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
