■Starting the engine when the
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 electri-
cal 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 stor ed in the ECU is
cleared. When the battery is
depleted, have the vehicle
inspected at you r Toyota dealer.
●Some systems may require initial-
ization. ( P.422)
■When removing the battery ter-
minals
When the battery terminals are
removed, the information stored in
the ECU is cleared. Before remov-
ing the battery term inals, contact
your Toyota dealer.
■Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery
will discharge grad ually even when
the vehicle is not in use, due to nat-
ural discharge and the draining
effects of certain electrical appli-
ances. If the vehicle is left for a long
time, the battery may discharge,
and the engine may be unable to
start. (The battery recharges auto-
matically during driving.)
■When recharging or replacing
the battery (vehicles with a
smart key system)
●In some cases, it may not be pos-
sible to unlock the doors using the
smart key system when the bat-
tery is discharged. Use the wire-
less remote 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 memo-
rized by the vehicle. When the
battery is reconnected, the system
will return to the mode it was in
before the bat tery was dis-
charged. Before disconnecting the
battery, turn the engine switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the
engine switch wa s in before the
battery discharged, be especially
careful when reconnecting the
battery.
■When replacing the battery
●Use a battery that conforms to
European regulations.
●Use a battery that the case size is
same as the previous one (LN1),
