Refer to the following tables and carry out the appropriate correction
procedures.
■Cannot charge at desired time
The DC charging connector is still
connected.
For safety, the EV system can not be
started when the DC charging con-
nector is connected. ( P.102)
Remove the DC charging connector
immediately after the charging is
completed.
The DC charging system is malfunc-
tioning
• Depending on the type of malfunc-
tion, the EV system can be started
after closing the charging port lid.
• If the EV system can not be started, contact your Toyota dealer.

The vehicle calendar and clock are
not set correctly.Check the calendar setting and set it
to the correct date. ( P.158)
AC charging connector is not con-
nected to vehicleBefore using the charging schedule,
connect the AC charging connector.
AC charging connector was con-
nected after set time
Connect the AC charging connector
before the time set in “Start”.
When the charging mode is set to
“Start-Stop”, the traction battery will
charge even if the start time has
passed, if the AC charging connector
is connected befor e the stop time.

“Charge Now” is set to on
When charging according to the
charging schedule, set “Charge
Now” to off. ( P.124, 128)
Charging schedule is set to offCheck that charging schedule is not
set to off. ( P. 1 1 8 )
AC charging connector was removed
and reinserted while charging indica-
tor of the charging port was flashing
If the AC charging connector is
removed and reinserted while the
charging indicator is flashing, the
charging schedule is canceled. Tem-
porarily remove the AC charging
connector, and then reconnect it.
The Remote Air Conditioning Sys-
tem was operated
When the Remote Air Conditioning
System is operated, the system will
start charging, even if the charging
schedule is registered. To carry out
charging using the charging sched-
ule, stop the Remote Air Condition-
ing System, and then reconnect the
AC charging connector.
Outside temperature is low and trac-
tion battery warming control ( P. 9 9 )
operated
 When traction battery warming
control operates, the charging
schedules are ignored and
charging starts. In order to protect
the traction battery , allow charging
to continue.
 After removing and installing the
12-volt battery, the charging
schedule setting may become
invalid due to the in itial setting of
the traction battery warming con-
trol system even wh en the outside
temperature is not low.
In this case, after a few runs, the
system’s initial settings will be
completed and the charging
schedule settings will take effect
when the outside temperature is
not low.

AC charging connector is removed
while AC charging
When the AC charging connector is
removed while AC charging,
charging stops. If you want to fully
charge the traction battery, recon-
nect the AC charging connector.After the traction battery is fully
charged, the AC charging connector
is removed while the traction battery
is being recharged again because
electricity-consuming functions
* have
been used and the remaining charge
is now reduced.

AC charging connector is not
securely connected
Check the connection status of the
AC charging connector.
• When connecting the AC charging
connector, make sure not to touch
the latch release button. Insert the
AC charging connector securely
until you hear a click. The AC
charging connector may not be
connected correctly if the latch
release button is pressed while
inserting.
• After connecting the AC charging connector, check that the latch
release button is not pressed and
the charging indicator of the
charging port is turned on.
If charging cannot be carried out,
even though the proper procedures
were followed, h ave the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer.

Check if it is possible to charge with the AC
charging cable equipped with the vehicle.
If charging cannot be carried out even when
using the genuine AC charging cable, contact
your Toyota dealer.
The DC charger is malfunc-
tioning.If the message above is displayed when DC
charging has not stopp ed operations, the DC
charger may be damaged, so do not use that
DC charger. Check if it is possible to charge

The traction battery warming control
is operated ( P. 9 9 )
When the traction battery warming
control operates, the charging
schedule is not used and charging is
performed.
This is a control to protect the trac-
tion battery, and not a malfunction.
Likely causeCorrection procedure
System check is not completed prop-
erly after DC charging.
The EV system can not be started
until the system check is completed
properly. Perform a system check
following the procedures on P.115.
Likely causeCorrection procedure
The DC charging is not completed
within the restric ted time with DC
charger.
• Depending on the type of DC char- ger, the timer may be set to stop
charging after a certain time.
Check with the charging station
manager.
Depending on the condition of the
vehicle, the charging time may
become longer than normal, and the
DC charging may not be completed
within the restricted time.
• When the A/C, headlights, audio system, etc., are turned on, the
electricity consum ption of the vehi-
cle will be increas ed. Perform the
DC charging after turning off all of
the above.
• The temperature of the traction battery may be low. Perform the
DC charging after warming up the
traction battery.
