■Warnings for DC charging
Be sure to observe the following
when using DC charging.
Failure to do so may cause an
accident that could lead to death
or serious injury.
●Check that the DC charger and
DC charging inlet are not dam-
aged. If there is any damage to
the DC charging inlet, do not
perform a DC charge and have
it inspected immediately at your
Toyota dealer.
●Do not touch the terminals of
the DC charging connector or
inlet with metallic sharp tips
(wires and needles), or allow a
short circuit to occur with foreign
objects.
●Do not insert anything other
than the DC charging connector
into the DC charging inlet.
●Check that the DC charging
cable is not coiled up or pinned
underneath heavy objects.
●Be sure the DC charging inlet
makes direct contact with the
DC charging connector.
Do not connect conversion
adapters, extension cords, etc.,
between the DC charging con-
nector and DC ch arging inlet.
●When DC charging is inter-
rupted, follow the handling pro-
cedures of the DC charger.
Immediately stop the DC
charging when the re is an out-
break of heat, smoke, strange
noises or smells, etc., during
charging.
●Check that the DC charging
connector and DC charging inlet
do not have foreign objects or
snow or ice attached to it. If any-
thing is attached t o the inlet, be
sure to complete ly remove the

WARNING
●When driving off-road or in rug-
ged terrain, do not drive at
excessive speeds, jump, make
sharp turns, strike objects, etc.
This may cause loss of control
or vehicle rollover causing
death or serious injury. You are
also risking expensive damage
to your vehicle’s suspension
and chassis.
NOTICE
■To prevent the water damage
Take all necessary safety mea-
sures to ensure that water dam-
age to the traction battery, EV
system or other components does
not occur.
●Water entering the motor com-
partment may cause severe
damage to the EV system.
●Water entering the transmis-
sion will cause deterioration in
transmission quality. The mal-
function indicator may come on,
and the vehicle may not be driv-
able.
●Water can wash the grease
from wheel bearings, causing
rusting and premature failure,
and may also enter the tran-
saxle case, reducing the gear
oil’s lubricating qualities.
■When you drive through
water
If driving through water, such as
when crossing shallow streams,
first check the depth of the water
and the bottom of the riverbed for
firmness. Drive slowly and avoid
deep water.
■Inspection after off-road driv-
ing
●Sand and mud that has accu-
mulated around brake discs
may affect braking efficiency
and may damage brake system
components.
●Always perform a maintenance
inspection after each day of off-
road driving that has taken you
through rough terrain, sand,
mud, or water. For scheduled
maintenance information, refer
to the “Scheduled Maintenance
Guide” or “Owner’s Manual
Supplement”.
