SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Your Camry Hybrid has both high-voltage DC and AC systems as well as a
12-volt system. Both DC and AC high voltage are very dangerous and can
cause personal injury, severe burns, electric shock and even fatal injury.
To avoid personal injury, please follow all caution labels attached to
high-voltage parts. Do not touch or attempt to remove or replace any
high-voltage (orange-colored) wiring and connectors. Never try to open
the service plug access hole located on the left-hand side of the rear seat
base. The service plug is used only when the vehicle is serviced, and is
subject to high voltage.
If an accident occurs, do not touch any high-voltage wiring, connectors
or parts such as the inverter unit or hybrid vehicle battery assembly.
Do not touch the potassium hydroxide electrolyte that might spill or leak
from the hybrid vehicle battery as the result of an accident. If potassium
hydroxide electrolyte gets on your skin or in your eyes, neutralize it
immediately with a saturated boric acid solution (ratio: 80 grams boric
acid to two liters water). Seek immediate medical attention.
If a vehicle fire occurs, extinguish it with a Class D powder-type fire
extinguisher.Toyota recommends having maintenance and repairs for your
Camry Hybrid performed by an authorized Toyota dealership.
To locate your nearest authorized Toyota dealership, contact the
Toyota Customer Experience Center at (800) 331-4331 or log on
to www.toyota.com.

t Toyota, our top priority is always our customers. We know
your Toyota is an important part of your life and something you
depend on every day. That’s why we’re dedicated to building
products of the highest quality and reliability.
Our excellent warranty coverage is evidence that we stand behind the
quality of our vehicles. We’re confident
— as you should be— that your
Toyota will provide you with many years of enjoyable driving.
To further demonstrate our commitment to our customers’ satisfaction,
occasion ally we may establish a special policy adjustment to pay for spe-
cific repairs that are no longer covered by warranty. When we establish
such a policy adjustment, we mail details to all applicable owners we
have on record. That’s why it’s important to send in the card at the back
of this booklet if you change your address or if you’ve purchased this
vehicle from a previous owner.
To provide you with added protection against unexpected service costs,
we offer Toyota Extra Care Vehicle Service Agreements with a variety oftime and mileage options. Your dealership can help you select the plan
that’s best for you.
Our goal is for every Toyota customer to enjoy outstanding quality,
dependa bility and peace of mind throughout their ownership experi-
ence. We want you to be a satisfied member of the Toyota family for
many miles to come.
This booklet describes the terms of Toyota warranty coverage
as well as general owner responsibilities. A separate publication
found in your glove box, the Scheduled Maintenance Guide,
describes your vehicle’s mainte nance require ments. Be sure to
review this publi cation carefully, since proper maintenance is
required to ensure that warranty coverage remains intact.
All information in this booklet is the latest available at the time of pub-
lication and, with the exception of the emission control warranties, is
subject to change without notice.

e realize that your confidence in the quality and reliability
of our products was a key factor in your decision to buy a
Toyota. We also know how disruptive the loss of transportation
can be to your daily routine. That’s why we’re pleased to offer you the
benefits of our Transportation Assistance Policy.
Under this policy, you are eligible for transportation assistance if your
Toyota must be kept overnight for warranty-covered repairs. The policy
applies when your vehicle must be kept overnight for any of the follow-
ing reasons:
The warranty repairs will take longer than one day to complete.
The warrantable condition requires extensive diagnosis.
The parts needed for the warranty repairs are not readily available
and your vehicle is inoperative or unsafe to drive.
The policy does not apply when warranty repairs can be completed
in one day but the vehicle must be kept overnight due to dealer or
owner scheduling conflicts.The Transportation Assistance Policy applies for the duration of the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. The policy applies to all 2008 model-year
Toyotas sold and serviced by authorized Toyota dealerships in the
mainland United States and Alaska.
For further details, please consult your Toyota dealer.

Both Toyota and your Toyota dealer are dedicated to serving your
automotive needs. Your complete satisfaction is our first priority. Should
you have a problem or concern — either during or after the warranty
period — please take the following steps to ensure the quickest possible
response:
Step 1
Discuss the situation with a dealership manager, such as the service
manager or customer relations manager. In most cases, a satisfactory
solution can be reached at this step.
Step 2
If the dealership does not address your concern to your satisfaction,
call the Toyota Customer Experience Center at (800) 331–4331.If you
are hearing- or speech-impaired, call (800) 443-4999 (TDD).Please have the following information ready when you call:
Your Toyota’s vehicle identification number (located on the
driver’s side corner of the dashboard, under the window)
Current mileage on your vehicle
Name of your Toyota dealership
A Toyota customer relations representative will assist you in
working with the dealership to find a satisfactory solution.
Step 3
If your concern has still not been resolved to your satisfaction, Toyota
offers additional assistance through the Dispute Settlement Program,
a dispute resolution program administered by the National Center for
Dispute Settlement. The purpose of the Dispute Settlement Program
is to resolve disputes through arbitration — a process by which two
parties authorize an independent third party to hear and resolve a dis-
pute. The program is informal and free of charge. To request that your

program called the California Dispute Settlement Program (CDSP). A bro -
chure about the program is found in your glove box. For additional infor -
mation, call the Toyota Customer Experience Center at (800) 331-4331.
You may also contact the CDSP directly at (888) 300-6237. Failure to

“Lemon Laws.”Important:You must use the Dispute Settlement Program (or, in

pursuant to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. You may also be
required to use the Dispute Settlement Program or CDSP before
seeking remedies under the “Lemon Laws” of your state. Please
