(E) A warning buzzer sounds continu-ously from the instrument cluster
and from the vehicle when closing
the door after getting out of the ve-
hicle.

to leave the vehicle carrying the key, ne-
glecting to follow the instructions for case

When the hybrid system is turned off,
the engine immobilizer system is auto-
matically set. (See “Engine immobilizer
system” on page 24 in Section 1
−2.)
When the driver ’s door is opened after
turning off the hybrid system, the steer-
ing wheel will lock.
When the 12 volt battery is discharged,
the steering lock function may not op-
erate properly.
Always slow down in gusty crosswinds.
This will allow you much better control.
Drive slowly onto curbs and, if pos-
sible, at a right angle. Avoid driving
onto high, sharp− edged objects and
other road hazards. Failure to do so
can lead to severe tire damage such
as a tire burst.
Drive slowly when passing over bumps
or travelling on a bumpy road. Other-
wise, the impact could cause severe
damage to the tires and/or wheels.
When parking on a hill, turn the front
wheels until they touch the curb so
that the vehicle will not roll. Apply the
parking brake, and place the transmis-
sion in “P”. If necessary, block the
wheels.

Before making these checks, make sure
you have sufficient fuel and that you have
followed the correct starting procedure giv-
en in “How to start the hybrid system” on
page 301 in Section 3. If your vehicle is
equipped with the engine immobilizer sys-
tem, also check whether the other keys
will start the hybrid system. If they work,
your key may be broken. Have the key
checked at your Toyota dealer. If none of
your keys work, there may be a malfunc-
tion in the immobilizer system. Call your
Toyota dealer. (See “Keys” on page 22 in
Section 1−2.) If the instrument cluster displays with
normal brightness levels with the
“POWER” switch set at ON...
You may try emergency start. See “(b)
Emergency start” for further instructions.
If the instrument cluster dims or the
instrument cluster display turns off
with the “POWER” switch set at ON...
1. Check that the 12 volt battery terminals are tight and clean.
2. If the 12 volt battery terminals are O.K., the 12 volt battery is discharged.
You may try jump starting. See “(c)
Jump starting” that follows for further
instructions.
NOTICE
Hybrid vehicles cannot be push
started.
When the hybrid system cannot be
started, the following procedure can be
used if the hybrid system and “POWER”
switch function normally.
1. Put the transmission in “P”.
2. Set the mode to ACC by pushing the “POWER” switch once.
3. Push and hold the “POWER” switch for about 15 seconds while depressing the
brake pedal firmly.
Even if the hybrid system can be started
using the above procedure, the system
may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle
checked by your Toyota dealer.
If the hybrid system cannot be started
using the above procedure, immediately
contact your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Do not place any objects close to the
“POWER” switch. If the object pushes
on the switch, the hybrid system may
be started unexpectedly.

The recommended connecting point
is
in the above illustration.
CAUTION
When making the connections, to
avoid serious injury, do not lean over
the battery or accidentally let the
jumper cables or clamps touch any-
thing except the correct battery termi-
nals or the ground.
5. Start the hybrid system. Make sure the“READY” light is on.
If the ”READY” light will not come on
and the hybrid system will not start
after you recharge the battery, perform
the following procedure. Turn the hybrid
system off. Open and close the driver’s
door. Then push the ”POWER” switch
briefly and firmly.
If the the message “LOW T. BATTERY
STOP THE VEHICLE SHIFT TO P” ap-
pears on the multi −information display,
the hybrid battery is also discharged.
In this condition, the hybrid system
may not start. Contact your Toyota
dealer.
6. Carefully disconnect the cables in the exact reverse order: the negative cable
and then the positive cable.
7. Carefully dispose of the battery cover cloths—they may now contain sulfuric
acid.
8. If removed, replace all the battery vent plugs.
If the cause of the 12 volt battery dis-
charging is not apparent (for example,
lights left on), have the battery checked
by your Toyota dealer. If the first start attempt is not success-
ful...
Check that the clamp on the jumper
cables are tight. Recharge the discharged
battery with the jumper cables connected
for several minutes and restart the hybrid
system in the normal way.
If the another attempt is not successful,
the battery may be depleted. Have it ch-
ecked at your Toyota dealer.

If the washer does not work or the
message “LOW WASHER FLUID” ap-
pears on the multiinformation display,
the washer tank may be empty. Add
washer fluid.
You may use plain water as washer fluid.
However, in cold areas where tempera-
tures range below the freezing point, use
washer fluid containing antifreeze. This
product is available at your Toyota dealer
and most auto parts stores. Follow the
manufacturer ’s directions for how much to
mix with water.
NOTICE
Do not use engine antifreeze or any
other substitute because it may dam-
age your vehicle’s paint.
The following illustrations show how to
gain access to the bulbs. When replacing
a bulb, make sure the hybrid system and
light switch are off. Use bulbs with the
wattage ratings given in the table.
The stop/tail lights and high mounted stop-
light consist of a number of LEDs. If any
of the LEDs burn out, take your vehicle
to your Toyota dealer to have the light
replaced.
If two or more LEDs in a stop light burn
out, your vehicle may not conform to local
laws (SAE).
CAUTION
To prevent burning yourself, do not
replace the light bulbs while they
are hot.
Halogen bulbs have pressurized gas
inside and require special handling.
They can burst or shatter if
scratched or dropped. Hold a bulb
only by its plastic or metal case.
Do not touch the glass part of a
bulb with bare hands.
NOTICE
Only use a bulb of the listed type.
The inside of the lens of exterior lights
such as headlights may temporarily fog up
when the lens becomes wet in the rain or
in a car wash. This is not a problem
because the fogging is caused by the
temperature difference between the outside
and inside of the lens, just like the
windshield fogs up in the rain. However, if
there is a large drop of water on the
inside of the lens, or if there is water
pooled inside the light, contact your
Toyota dealer.
