Once the vehicle’s engine has started, remove the jumper cables in
the exact reverse order from which they were connected.
Once the engine starts, have the vehicle inspected at any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional as soon as possible.
Starting the engine when the 12-volt battery is discharged
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is off.
Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
When the 12-volt battery is removed or discharged (vehicles with an
alarm)
Make sure that the key is not inside the vehicle when recharging or replacing
the battery. The key may be locked in the vehicle if the alarm is activated.
(P. 106)
Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery will discharge gradually even when
the vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of
certain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the 12-volt
battery may discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The 12-volt
battery recharges automatically during driving.)

When trouble arises
When recharging or replacing the 12-volt battery
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: In some cases, it may not be
possible to unlock the doors using the smart entry & start system when the
battery is discharged. Use the wireless remote control or the mechanical
key to lock or unlock the doors.
The engine may not start on the first attempt after the 12-volt battery has
recharged but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a mal-
function.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: The engine switch mode is mem-
orized by the vehicle. When the 12-volt battery is reconnected, the system
will return to the mode it was in before the 12-volt battery was discharged.
Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery, turn the engine switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the engine switch was in before the 12-volt
battery discharged, be especially careful when reconnecting the 12-volt bat-
tery.
CAUTION
Avoiding 12-volt battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flam-
mable gas that may be emitted from the 12-volt battery:
Make sure each jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that
it is not unintentionally in contact with any other than the intended terminal.
Do not allow the other end of the jumper cable connected to the “+” termi-
nal to come into contact with any other parts or metal surfaces in the area,
such as brackets or unpainted metal.
Do not allow the + and - clamps of the jumper cables to come into contact
with each other.
Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette lighters or allow open flame near
the 12-volt battery.

7147-2. Steps to take in an emergency
UK_AURIS/AURIS_HV_EE (OM12G88E)
CAUTION
12-volt battery precautions
The 12-volt battery contains poisonous and corrosive acidic electrolyte,
while related parts contain lead and lead compounds. Observe the following
precautions when handling the 12-volt battery:
When working with the 12-volt battery, always wear safety glasses and
take care not to allow any 12-volt battery fluids (acid) to come into contact
with skin, clothing or the vehicle body.
Do not lean over the 12-volt battery.
In the event that 12-volt battery fluid comes into contact with the skin or
eyes, immediately wash the affected area with water and seek medical
attention.
Place a wet sponge or cloth over the affected area until medical attention
can be received.
Always wash your hands after handling the battery support, terminals, and
other 12-volt battery-related parts.
Do not allow children near the 12-volt battery.
NOTICE
When handling jumper cables
When connecting the jumper cables, ensure that they do not become entan-
gled in the cooling fans or engine drive belt.

When trouble arises
Once the hybrid system has started, remove the jumper cables in
the exact reverse order from which they were connected.
Close the exclusive jump starting terminal cover, and reinstall the
fuse box cover to its original position.
When installing, first hook the fuse box cover onto the two rear tabs.

When the 12-volt battery is removed or discharged
The hybrid system may not start. (P. 532)
If the 12-volt battery is depleted with the shift position in P, it will not be pos-
sible to shift the shift position other than P. In this case, the vehicle cannot
be towed without lifting both front wheels because the front wheels are
locked by the parking lock. (P. 604)
When the 12-volt battery is reconnected, start the hybrid system, depress
the brake pedal, and confirm that it is possible to shift into each shift posi-
tion.
