WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the “READY”
indicator is illuminated. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.
■ When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and ac\
cel-
erator pedals to avoid depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the brake
pedal will result in sudden acceleration that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to difficulty in operating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the vehicle only slightly. This allows you to depress the brake and accelera-
tor pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency, result-
ing in an accident.
● The driver should pay extra attention to pedestrians when the fuel cell sys-
tem is on. As there are no engine sounds, pedestrians may misjudge the
vehicle’s movement.
● During normal driving, do not turn off the fuel cell system. Turning the fuel
cell system off while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking con-
trol, however, power assist to the steering will be lost. This will make it
more difficult to steer smoothly, so you should pull over and stop the vehi-
cle as soon as it is safe to do so.
In the event of an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the
vehicle in the normal way: P. 361
● Do not adjust the positions of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or
outside rear view mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control.
● Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their body
are not outside the vehicle.

WARNING
■When filling
Observe the following precautions while fueling the vehicle.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Turn the power switch off before fueling.
● Ensure the hydrogen gas nozzle is locked onto the vehicle receptacle
before filling. This can be done by pulling on the hydrogen gas nozzle to
check that it cannot be pulled off.
Failure to do so may result in injury or damage to the hydrogen gas nozzle
or vehicle.
● Do not smoke while fueling.
● Because the fuel is cold, the hydrogen gas nozzle and vehicle receptacle
surface will become cold, and frost may develop. After fueling is com-
pleted, remove the hydrogen gas nozzle by the plastic handle only. Do not
touch any other parts of the hydrogen gas nozzle or vehicle receptacle
with bare hands immediately after f ueling, as frostbite may occur.
NOTICE
■When filling
●Fuel only with compressed hydrogen gas at stations compliant with the
Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) J2601 fueling protocol or laws that
may supersede such SAE protocols.
If improper fuels are used, the fuel cell stack will be damaged.
● Do not swing or drop the hydrogen gas nozzle, or subject it to a large
amount of force. Doing so may cause damage.
● If the hydrogen gas nozzle cannot be removed after fueling, it may be fro-
zen to the vehicle receptacle. Wait for the hydrogen gas nozzle to thaw
before attempting to remove. Do not pull or rotate the hydrogen gas nozzle
forcibly. Failure to follow these precautions may cause damage.
● Be sure to replace the cap after filling. If foreign material gets in the vehicle
receptacle, it may cause damage.
● Do not put anything sharp, such as a screwdriver, blade, or any foreign
object into the mouth of the vehicle receptacle. If the vehicle receptacle is
damaged, hydrogen gas may leak during fueling.
● If you notice anything unusual about the vehicle receptacle, please notify
your Toyota dealer.
● If you notice anything unusual with the hydrogen dispenser or hydrogen
gas nozzle, please notify the hydrogen station operator. Contact informa-
tion is usually displayed on the dispenser.
