Starting the hybrid system when the 12-volt battery is discharged
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 system is
off.
Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is run-
ning at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
Precautions when the 12-volt battery is discharged
In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart
entry & start system immediately after the 12-volt battery has been dis-
connected and reconnected. Use the wireless remote control or the
mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
Open and close any of the doors of your vehicle with the
engine switch (vehicles without an electronic key) or
“POWER” switch (vehicles with an electronic key) off.
Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and start
the hybrid system of your vehicle by turning the engine
switch (vehicles without an electronic key) to “ON” position
or “POWER” switch (vehicles with an electronic key) to ON
mode.
Make sure the “READY” indicator comes on. If the indicator
does not come on, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional.
Once the hybrid system has started, remove the jumper
cables in the exact reverse order from which they were con-
nected.
Once the hybrid system starts, have the vehicle inspected at any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional as soon as possible.
