2-1. Electric vehicle system
Electric Vehicle system
A value for which a sufficient level
of driving performance can be pro-
vided is estimated based on the
remaining charge of the traction
battery, the state of the traction bat-
tery, the outside temperature, etc.,
and is displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display. ( P.172)
When the outside temperature is
low, the traction battery output may
be decreased, causing the possible
driving distance to be shorter. How-
ever, this is not a malfunction.
Charge the traction battery earlier
than usual.
Possible driving distance varies sig-
nificantly depending on how the
vehicle is driven, road conditions,
the weather, the outside tempera-
ture, usage conditions of electrical
components and the number of
occupants.
Possible driving distance could be
extended if the followings are per-
formed:
 Maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front and avoid unnec-
essary acceleration and deceler-
ation
 Accelerate and decelerate the
vehicle as smoothly as possible
 Drive at moderate speeds as
much as possible and maintain a
constant speed
 Set the air conditioning system to
a moderate temperature and
avoid using the heating and cool-
ing functions excessively.
 Use tires of the specified size
and maintain the specified tire
pressure
 Do not add unnecessary weight
to the vehicle
The followings indicate that
charging has been carried out prop-
erly.
 The charging indicator turns off
 “Charging complete” is displayed
on the multi-information display
when a door is opened while the
power switch is off. ( P.117)

Maintenance and care
When replacing wheels, care
should be taken to ensure that they
are equivalent to those removed in
load capacity, diameter, rim width
and inset*.
Replacement wheels are available
at any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
*: Conventionally referred to as offset.
Toyota does not recommend using
the following:
 Wheels of different sizes or types
 Used wheels
 Bent wheels that have been
straightened
■When replacing wheels
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped with tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters that allow the tire pressure warning system to provide advance warning in the event of a loss in tire
inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are replaced, tire pressure warning valves and transmitters must be installed.
( P.479)
Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or
heavily corroded, it should be
replaced. Otherwise, the tire
may separate from the wheel
or cause a loss of handling
control.
Wheel selection
WARNING
■When replacing wheels
●Do not use wheels that are a differ-
ent size from those recommended in the Owner’s Manual, as this may result in a loss of handling control.
●Never use an inner tube in a leak-ing wheel which is designed for a
tubeless tire. Doing so may result in an accident, causing death or seri-ous injury.
■Wheel bolts
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of death or serious injury:
●Do not over tighten.
●Never use oil or grease on the
wheel bolts. Oil and grease may cause the wheel bolts to be exces-sively tightened, leading to bolt or
disc wheel damage. In addition, the oil or grease can cause the wheel bolts to loosen and the wheel may
fall off, causing a serious accident. Remove any oil or grease from the wheel bolts.
●If there are any cracks or deforma-tions in the wheel bolts, or if the sur-
face treatment becomes worn, have the wheel bolts replaced at your any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. Failure to follow these precautions could cause the
wheel bolts to loosen and the tire to fall off, resulting in death or serious injury.
■Use of defective wheels prohib-ited
Do not use cracked or deformed wheels.Doing so could cause the tire to leak
air during driving, possibly causing an accident.

8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
When using a flat-bed truck to
transport the vehicle, use tire strap-
ping belts. Refer to the owner’s
manual of the flat-bed truck for the
tire strapping method.
In order to suppress vehicle move-
ment during transportation, set the
parking brake and turn the power
switch off.
If a tow truck is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using cables or
chains secured to the emergency
towing eyelets. This should only be
attempted on hard surfaced roads
for short distances at under 30
km/h (18 mph).
A driver must be in the vehicle to
steer and operate the brakes. The
vehicle’s wheels, drive train, axles,
steering and brakes must be in
good condition.
WARNING
AWD models
Be sure to transport the vehicle with
all four wheels raised off the ground. If
the vehicle is towed with the tires con-
tacting the ground, the drivetrain or
related parts may be damaged, the
vehicle may fly off the truck, or elec-
tricity generated by the operation of
the motor may cause a fire to occur
depending on the nature of the dam-
age or malfunction.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the vehicle
when towing using a wheel-lift type truck
●Right-hand drive vehicles: Do not
tow the vehicle from the rear when the power switch is OFF. The steer-ing lock mechanism is not strong
enough to hold the front wheels straight.
●When raising the vehicle, ensure adequate ground clearance for tow-ing at the opposite end of the raised
vehicle. Without adequate clear- ance, the vehicle could be dam-aged while being towed.
■Towing with a sling-type truck
Do not tow with a sling-type truck to prevent body damage.

■Emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The sealant stored in the emergency tire puncture repair kit can be used only once to temporarily repair a sin-
gle tire. If the sealant in the bottle and other parts of the kit have been used and need to be replaced, contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●The compressor can be used repeat-edly.
●The sealant can be used when the outside temperature is from -40°C
(-40°F) to 60°C (140°F).
●The kit is exclusively designed for size
and type of tires originally installed on
your vehicle. Do not use it for tires that a different size than the original ones, or for any other purposes.
●If the sealant gets on your clothes, it may stain.
●If the sealant adheres to a wheel or the surface of the vehicle body, the
stain may not be removable if it is not cleaned at once. Immediately wipe away the sealant with a wet cloth.
●During operation of the repair kit, a loud operation noise is produced. This
does not indicate a malfunction.
●Do not use to check or to adjust the
tire pressure.
■Note for checking the emergency tire puncture repair kit
●Check the sealant expiry date occa-sionally. The expiry date is shown on the bottle.
●Do not use sealant whose expiry date has already passed. Otherwise,
repairs conducted using the emer- gency tire puncture repair kit may not be performed properly.
●The sealant has a limited life span. The expiry date is marked on the bot-
tle. The sealant should be replaced before the expiry date. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for replacement.
WARNING
■If you have a flat tire
Driving even a short distance with a flat tire can damage the tire and the wheel beyond repair.
Driving with a flat tire may cause a cir- cumferential groove on the side wall. In such a case, the tire may explode
when using a repair kit.
