Be sure to put the transmission in the
“P” position when parking.
In the “N” position, the hybrid battery
does not recharge, even if the gasoline
engine is operating. Leaving the transmis-
sion in the “N” position for an extended
period of time may discharge the hybrid
battery. The vehicle cannot run if the hy-
brid battery is discharged.
When you leave your vehicle, apply the
parking brake, put the transmission in
the “P” position, be sure to carry the
key with you and lock all the doors.
If you leave the ignition in “ACC” or “ON”,
the 12 volt battery will be discharged and
the hybrid system may not start.
Because the vehicle is powered by
both the gasoline engine and the trac-
tion motor, you may hear a motor
sound coming from the engine compart-
ment. However, this does not indicate
any trouble.
When the hybrid system is started or
stopped, you may hear a sound coming
from the hybrid battery under the rear
seats. However, this does not indicate
any trouble.
When the hybrid system is started or
stopped, or while the vehicle is idling,
you may hear a sound coming from the
transmission. However, this does not
indicate any trouble.
When accelerating rapidly, the engine
noise may rise. However, this does not
indicate any trouble.
Repeated acceleration consumes hybrid
battery power, resulting in poor accel-
eration. Battery power can be restored
by driving with the accelerator pedal
slightly released.
When applying brakes, you may hear
a sound coming from the motor genera-
tor. However, this does not indicate
any trouble.
You may hear a sound in the engine
compartment when the driver ’s door is
opened or the brake pedal is de-
pressed with the hybrid system turned
off. However, this does not indicate any
trouble.
When the gasoline engine is started or
stopped with the hybrid system on, you
may feel a vibration. However, this
does not indicate any trouble.
If the “READY” light is on, you can
start even when the gasoline engine is
off.
When you put the transmission in the
“B” position and take your foot off the
accelerator pedal, engine braking will
be applied. However, during high speed
driving you may feel that engine brak-
ing is less effective than that of ordi-
nary vehicle.
If the vehicle is parked for a long time,
the hybrid battery will discharge gradually.
To keep the hybrid battery in good condi-
tion, drive the vehicle at least once every
several months for at least 30 minutes or
10 miles. If the hybrid battery becomes
fully discharged and the vehicle will not
start even with a jump start to the 12 volt
battery, contact your Toyota dealership.
High voltage parts and cables on the
hybrid vehicles emit approximately the
same amount of electromagnetic
waves as the conventional gasoline
powered vehicles or home electronic
appliances despite of their electro-
magnetic shieldings.
Unwanted noise may occur in the re-
ception of the mobile twoway radio.

Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.1. Master keys—These keys work in ev- ery lock.
2. Sub key—This key will not work in the glove box.
To protect items locked in the glove box
when using valet parking, leave the sub
key with the attendant.
Since the side doors can be locked with-
out a key, you should always carry a
spare key in case you accidentally lock
your keys inside the vehicle.KEY NUMBER PLATE
Your key number is shown on the plate.
Keep the plate in a safe place such as
your wallet, not in the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you
need additional keys, duplicates can be
made by a Toyota dealer using the key
number.
We recommend writing down the key num-
ber and storing it in a safe place.Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys. 1. Master keys (black)—These keys work in every lock. Your Toyota dealer will
need one of them to make a new key
with a built −in transponder chip.
2. Sub key (gray)—This key will not work in the glove box.

A transponder chip for engine immobilizer
system has been placed in the head of
the master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function
correctly, so be careful not to lose these
keys. If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the immobi-
lizer system or start the hybrid system.
To protect items locked in the glove box
when using valet parking, leave the sub
key with the attendant.
Since the side doors can be locked with-
out a key, you should always carry a
spare key in case you accidentally lock
your keys inside the vehicle.
NOTICE
When using a key containing a trans-
ponder chip, observe the following
precautions:
When starting the hybrid system,
do not use the key with a key ring
resting on the key grip and do not
press the key ring against the key
grip. Otherwise the hybrid system
may not start, or may stop soon
after it starts.
When starting the hybrid system,
do not use the key with other trans-
ponder keys around (including keys
of other vehicles) and do not press
other key plates against the key
grip. Otherwise the hybrid system
may not start, or may stop soon
after it starts. If this happens, re-
move the key once and then insert
it again after removing other trans-
ponder keys (including keys of oth-
er vehicles) from the ring or while
gripping or covering them with your
hand to start the hybrid system.

trol transmitters for the same vehicle.
Contact your Toyota dealer for detailed
information. If the wireless remote control transmitter
does not actuate the side doors and back
door or alarm, or operate from a normal
distance:
Check for closeness to a radio trans-
mitter such as a radio station or an
airport which can interfere with normal
operation of the transmitter.
The battery may have been consumed.
Check the battery in the transmitter. To
replace the battery, see “—Replacing
transmitter battery” on page 30.
If you lose your transmitter, contact your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible to
avoid the possibility of theft, or an acci-
dent. (See “If you lose your wireless re-
mote control transmitter” on page 359 in
