Important health and safety
information about your Toyota
CAUTION
WARNING: Engine exhaust, some of its constitu- ents, and a wide variety of automobile compo-
nents contain or emit chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth de-
fects and other reproductive harm. In addition,
oils, fuels and fluids contained in vehicles as
well as waste produced by component wear con-
tain or emit chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm.
Battery∗ posts, terminals and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds. Wash your
hands after handling. Used engine oil contains
chemicals that have caused cancer in laboratory
animals. Always protect your skin by washing
thoroughly with soap and water.

Accessories, spare parts and
modification of your Toyota
A wide variety of non −genuine spare parts and accessories
for Toyota vehicles are currently available in the market.
You should know that Toyota does not warrant these prod-
ucts and is not responsible for their performance, repair, or
replacement, or for any damage they may cause to, or
adverse effect they may have on, your Toyota vehicle.
This vehicle should not be modified with non −genuine
Toyota products. Modification with non −genuine Toyota
products could affect its performance, safety or durability,
and may even violate governmental regulations. In addi-
tion, damage or performance problems resulting from the
modification may not be covered under warranty.

Leak detection pump
This pump performs fuel evaporation leakage check. This
check is done approximately five hours after the hybrid
system is turned off. So you may hear sound coming from
underneath the luggage compartment for several minutes.
It does not indicate a malfunction.
Hybrid battery
The hybrid battery has a limited service life. Call your
Toyota dealer or a qualified service shop for information
about re cycling or disposal of the battery.
Scrapping of your Toyota
CAUTION
In the event that your vehicle must be disposed of,
make sure to contact your Toyota dealer or a quali-
fied service shop. If your vehicle is disposed of
without the hybrid battery having been removed,
there is a danger of serious electric shock if high
voltage parts, cables and their connectors are tou-
ched. The traction batteries must be disposed of by
your Toyota dealer or a qualified service shop. If the
traction batteries are not disposed of properly, they
may cause electric shock that can result a death or
serious injury.
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your
Toyota contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is
scrapped with the airbags and pretensioners left as they
are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to
have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt preten-
sioner removed and disposed of by the qualified service
shop or by your Toyota dealer before you dispose of your
vehicle.

Toyota hybrid system combines the
power of a gasoline engine and a trac-
tion motor to minimize fuel consump-
tion and emissions.
Depending on driving conditions, the ve-
hicle runs optimally on a combination of
the gasoline engine and traction motor.
Since the gasoline engine charges the hy-
brid battery as needed, the battery does
not have to be charged from an outside
source like an electric vehicle.Toyota hybrid system performs various
controls depending on the operating
condition. The condition appears on the
multi information display and/or naviga-
tion system screen (with navigation
system) when the display and/or screen
is in “Energy Monitor” mode. See “Mul-
ti information display” on page 152 in
Section 1 6 and “Trip information” on
page 271 in Section 1 10 for the opera-
tion of the display and screen.
These are representative examples of
energy monitor displays. Depending on
the condition, the energy monitor dis-
plays the graphics different from those
shown below. Depending on conditions,
the graphic does not reflect the actual
motion of the vehicle.The multi
−information display

Drive your vehicle with smooth accel-
eration and deceleration.
While driving, energy is recovered
through the regenerative brake as the
vehicle decelerates. However, for effi-
cient use, do not accelerate or deceler-
ate your vehicle more than necessary.
Avoid abrupt acceleration and decelera-
tion.
The power of the hybrid battery can be
checked on the multi−information dis-
play or the navigation system screen
(with navigation system). See “—Hybrid
battery status” on page 4 for details.
Gradual or non −abrupt acceleration and
deceleration will make more effectively
use of the traction motor without hav-
ing to use gasoline engine power. When parking, be sure to put the trans-
mission into the “P” position. While
driving, put the transmission into the
“D” position.
In the “N” position, the gasoline engine
operates but electricity cannot be gen-
erated. The hybrid battery will be dis-
charged requiring unnecessary engine
power to recharge.
The hybrid system automatically re-
charges the hybrid battery when the
remaining battery power is reduced.
However, the hybrid battery cannot be
recharged if the transmission is in the
“N” position.
For detailed information, see “How to save
fuel and make your vehicle last longer” on
page 335 in Section 3.
INFORMATION
The gasoline engine starts and stops
automatically. (It stops during a low
load driving, deceleration or when the
vehicle is stopped.)
As long as the “READY” light remains
on, you can start your vehicle using
the electric motor even with the gaso-
line engine stopped.
The gasoline engine may not stop au-
tomatically in the following condi-
tions:
During gasoline engine warm up
During hybrid battery charging
During low or high hybrid battery
temperature

vehicle

CAUTION
Pull your vehicle off the road, put
the transmission in the “P” posi-
tion, apply the parking brake, turn
the hybrid system off and remove
the key.
In order to avoid personal injuries,
do not touch high voltage wiring,
connectors or high voltage parts
(inverter unit, hybrid battery and
etc.).
If exposed electric wires are pro-
truding inside or outside of your
vehicle, an electric shock may oc-
cur. Never touch the electric wires.
If fluid leaks or gets into some
parts of the vehicle, never touch it
because it may be strong alkaline
electrolyte from the hybrid battery.
If it contacts your skin or eyes,
wash it off immediately with a large
amount of water or if possible, bo-
ric acid solution. Get immediate
medical attention in order to help
avoid serious injury.
If a fire occurs in the hybrid ve-
hicle, leave the vehicle as soon as
possible. Never use a fire extin-
guisher that is not meant for elec-
tric fires. Using a small amount of
water may be also dangerous.
If your vehicle needs to be towed,
do it with the front wheels raised
(front wheel drive models) or all
four wheels raised (all models). If
the wheels with the traction motor
are on the ground when towing, the
motor may continue to generate
electricity. This may cause the elec-
tricity leakage. Depending on the
severity of the damage, electricity
leakage may cause fire. See “If your
vehicle needs to be towed” on page
353 in Section 4.
The emergency shut off system blocks
off the high voltage current and stops
the fuel pump to minimize the risk of
the electric leakage and the fuel leak-
age when a certain level of impact is
detected by the impact sensor. If the
system activates, your vehicle will not
restart. To restart the hybrid system,
contact a Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Check to see if there are exposed
high voltage parts and cables. Nev-
er touch the parts and cables. See
“—High voltage components” on
page 6 in this Section for the loca-
tions of the high voltage parts and
cables.
Inspect the ground under the ve-
hicle. If you find that liquid has
leaked onto the ground, the fuel
system may have been damaged.
Leave the vehicle as soon as pos-
sible.

TESTING THE SYSTEM1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the system as described above. The side doors and back door should
be locked with the key or wireless re-
mote control transmitter. Be sure to
wait until the indicator light starts flash-
ing.
3. Unlock any door from the inside. The system s hould activate the alarm.
4. Stop the alarm as described above.
5. Repeat this operation for the other doors and hood. When testing the
hood, also check that the system is
activated when the battery terminal is
disconnected and then reconnected.
If the system does not work properly,
have it checked by your Toyota dealer.
This indicates that the fuel filler door is
on the left side of your vehicle.
To refuel your vehicle, turn the hybrid
system off.
CAUTION
Do not smoke, cause sparks or allow
open flames in the area when refuel-
ing. The fumes are flammable.
1. To open the fuel filler door, push the switch.
