Road accident cautions
CAUTION
Pull your vehicle off the road, put the transmis-
sion in the “P” position, apply the parking brake, turn the hybrid system off and remove the key.
In order to avoid death or serious injuries, do not
touch high voltage wiring, connectors and high voltage parts (inverter unit, hybrid battery and
etc.).
If exposed electric wires are protruding 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 ve-
hicle, never touch it because it may be strong al-
kaline electrolyte from the hybrid battery. If it con-
tacts your skin or eyes, wash it off immediately
with a large amount of water or if possible, boric
acid solution. Get immediate medical attention in order to help avoid serious injury.
If a fire occurs in the hybrid vehicle, leave the
vehicle as soon as possible. Never use a fire ex-
tinguisher that is not meant for use on electric
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 wheel drive 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 electricity
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 starting procedure is the same as
that for conventional vehicles.
Insert the key into the ignition and turn it
to the “START” position.
The “READY” light flashes and stays on.
A beep sounds after a few seconds, and
the hybrid system will start. If the ambient
temperature is low, it may take time until
the “READY” light comes on. For details,
see “How to start the hybrid system” on
page 324 in Section 3.
The engine may not start even with the
“READY” light on.

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 two way radio.

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.

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.

The engine immobilizer system is a
theft prevention system. When you in-
sert the key in the ignition switch, the
transponder chip in the key’s head
transmits an electronic code to the ve-
hicle. The hybrid system will start only
when the electronic code in the chip
corresponds to the registered ID code
for the vehicle.The system is automatically set when the
key is removed from the ignition switch.
The indicator light will start flashing to
show the system is set.
In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer.
The indicator light stays on.
The indicator light does not start flash-
ing when the key is removed from the
ignition switch.
The indicator light flashes inconsistent-
ly.
Inserting the registered key in the ignition
switch automatically cancels the immobiliz-
er system, which enables the hybrid sys-
tem to start. The indicator light will go off. For your Toyota dealer to make you a
new key with built
−in transponder chip,
your dealer will need your key number
and master key. However, there is a limit
to the number of additional keys your
Toyota dealer can make for you.
If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the im-
mobilizer system or start the hybrid
system.
NOTICE
Do not modify, remove or disas-
semble the engine immobilizer sys-
tem. If any unauthorized changes or
modifications are made, proper opera-
tion of the system cannot be guaran-
teed.
