● Wear protective safety glasses when working near the 12-volt ba ttery.
● Keep children away from the 12-volt battery.
■ Where to safely charge the 12-volt battery
Always charge the 12-volt battery in an open area. Do not charg e the 12-
volt battery in a garage or closed room where there is insuffic ient ventila-
tion.
■ How to recharge the 12-volt battery
Only perform a slow charge (5 A or less). The 12-volt battery m ay explode if
charged at a quicker rate.
■ Emergency measures regarding electrolyte
● If electrolyte gets in your eyes

5127-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■When replacing the 12-volt battery
●Use a Central Degassing type 12-volt battery (European Regulati ons).
● Vehicles without a moon roof: Use a 12-volt battery that the case size is
same as the previous one (LN2), 20 hour rate capacity (20HR) is equivalent
(55Ah) or greater, and performance rating (CCA) is equivalent ( 345A) or
greater.
Vehicles with a moon roof: Use a 12-volt battery that the case size is same
as the previous one (LN2), 20 hour rate capacity (20HR) is equi valent
(60Ah) or greater, and performance rating (CCA) is equivalent ( 563A) or
greater.
• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt battery cannot be properly se cured.
• 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 12-volt battery may discha rge and the
hybrid system may not be able to start.
● Use a 12-volt battery with a handle. If a 12-volt battery witho ut a handle is
used, removal is more difficult.
For details, consult your Toyota dealer. ● After replacing, firmly attach the follow-
ing items to the exhaust hole of the 12-
volt battery.
• Use the exhaust hose that was
attached to the 12-volt battery before
replacing and confirm that it is firmly
connected to the hole section of the
vehicle.
• Use the exhaust hole plug included with the 12-volt battery replaced or
the one installed on the battery prior
to the replacement. (Depending on
the 12-volt battery to be replaced, the
exhaust hole may be plugged.)
