■ Before recharging
When recharging, the battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable and
explosive. Therefore, observe the following before recharging:
●If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be sur e to disconnect
the ground cable.
● Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connectin g and dis-
connecting the charger cables to the battery.
■ After recharging/reconnecting the battery (vehicles with a smar t key sys-
tem)
● Unlocking the doors using the smart key system may not be possi ble imme-
diately after reconnecting the battery. If this happens, use the wireless
remote control or the mechanical key to lock/unlock the doors.
● Start the engine with the engine switch in ACCESSORY mode. The engine
may not start with the engine switch turned off. However, the e ngine will
operate normally from the second attempt.
● The engine switch mode is recorded by the vehicle. If the batte ry is recon-
nected, the vehicle will return the engine switch mode to the s tatus it was in
before the battery was disconnected. Make sure to turn off the engine
before disconnecting the battery. Take extra care when connecti ng the bat-
tery if the engine switch mode prior to discharge is unknown.
If the system will not start even after multiple attempts, contact your Toyota

is a possibility that the steering wheel is locked and cannot b e operated
Be sure to transport the vehicle with the
front wheels raised or with all four wheels
raised off the ground. If the vehicle is
towed with the front wheels contacting
the ground, the drivetrain and related
parts may be damaged.
Be sure to transport the vehicle with all
four wheels raised off the ground. If the
vehicle is towed with the tires contacting
the ground, the drivetrain or related parts
may be damaged, the vehicle may fly off
the truck.

Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine speed
slightly and maintain at that lev el for approximately 5 minutes to
recharge the batter y of your vehicle.
Vehicles with a smart key syst em: Open and close any of the doo rs
of your vehicle with the engine switch off.
Vehicles without a smart key system:
Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and turn the
engine switch to the “ON” posit ion, then start the vehicle's engine.
Vehicles with a smart key system:
Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and turn the
engine switch to IGNITION ON mode, then start the vehicle's
engine.
Once the vehicle’s engine has st arted, remove the jumper cables in
the exact reverse order from which they were connected.
Once the engine starts, have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible.
■ Starting the engine when t he battery is discharged
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent 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 battery is removed or discharged
●Information stored in the ECU is cleared. When the battery is d epleted, have
the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
● Some systems may require initialization. (→P. 614)
■ When removing the battery terminals
When the battery terminals are removed, the information stored in the ECU is
cleared. Before removing the battery terminals, contact your Toyota dealer.
■ Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of cer-
tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long t ime, the battery may
discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges
automatically during driving.)

When trouble arises
■When recharging or replacing the battery (vehicles with a smart key sys-
tem)
● In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart
key system when the battery is discharged. Use the wireless rem ote control
or the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
● The engine may not start on the first attempt after the battery has recharged
but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a malfunction.
● The engine switch mode is memorized by the vehicle. When the ba ttery is
reconnected, the system will return to the mode it was in befor e the battery
was discharged. Before disconnecting the battery, turn the engine switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the engine switch was in before the battery dis-
charged, be especially careful when reconnecting the battery.
■ When replacing the battery
●Use a battery that conforms to European regulations.
● Use a battery with the same case size, equivalent or greater 20 hour rate
capacity (20HR), and equivalent or greater performance rating ( CCA) as the
battery which is being replaced.
The case size, 20 hour rate capacity (20HR) and performance rat ing
(CCA) are specified on the label attached to the battery.
• If the sizes differ, the battery cannot be properly secured.
• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low, even if the time period w here the vehi-
cle is not used is a short time, the battery may discharge and the engine
may not be able to start.
● For details, consult your Toyota dealer.
