When trouble arises
Add inverter coolant if nec-
essary. (P. 398)
Water can be used in an emer-
gency if inverter coolant is
unavailable.
Have the vehicle inspected at the nearest Scion dealer as soon as
possible.
■Overheating
If you observe the following, your vehicle may be overheating:
●“EV SYSTEM OVERHEAT” is shown on the multi-information display.
● EV system output decreases.
● Steam comes out from under the hood.

CAUTION
■When inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns.
● If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until
the steam has subsided. The motor compartment will be very hot.
● Keep hands and clothing away from the fan, etc. while the EV system is
operating.
● Even if EV system has stopped, the cooling fan may begin to move sud-
denly. Do not touch or approach the rotating parts of the fan. Doing so may
lead to fingers, clothes or tools getting caught, resulting in injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reservoir cap
while the EV system and radiator are
hot.
High temperature steam or coolant
could spray out.

3928-2. Steps to take in an emergency
NOTICE
■When adding inverter coolant
Add coolant slowly after the EV system has cooled down sufficiently. Adding
cool coolant to a hot EV system too quickly can cause damage to the EV
system.
■ To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
● Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or dust
etc.).
● Do not use any coolant additives other than the Scion genuine or similar
coolant additives.

When trouble arises
8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
If the vehicle becomes stuck
Set the parking brake, shift the shift lever to P and stop the EV sys-
tem.
Remove the mud, snow or sand from around the front wheels.
Place wood, stones or some othe r material under the front wheels
to help provide traction.
Restart the EV system.
Shift the shift lever to D or R and release the parking brake. Then,
while exercising caution, depress the accelerator pedal.
Carry out the following procedures if the tires spin or the vehicle
becomes stuck in mud, dirt or snow:
CAUTION
■ When attempting to free a stuck vehicle
If you choose to push the vehicle back and forth to free it, make sure the
surrounding area is clear to avoid striking other vehicles, objects or people.
The vehicle may also lunge forward or lunge back suddenly as it becomes
free. Use extreme caution.
■ When shifting the shift lever
Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed.
This may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may
cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■To avoid damage to the tran smission and other components
● Avoid spinning the front wheels and depressing the accelerator pedal
more than necessary.
● If the vehicle remains stuck even after these procedures are performed,
the vehicle may require towing to be freed.
