WARNING
■Precautions in case of an
accident
In the event of an accident,
observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so c an cause fire or
electric shocks, resulting in death
or serious injury.
●Stop the vehicle i n a safe place
to prevent subsequent acci-
dents. Shift the shift position to
P and apply the parking brake.
●Check for hydrogen gas leak-
age.
Hydrogen leaks will cause a
warning message to be shown
on the multi-information dis-
play. Larger leaks may also be
audible.
●If a large amount of hydrogen
gas leaking is noticed, turn off
the power switch, exit the vehi-
cle, and stay far away from it.
Display warning signs and keep
sources of fire away from the
vehicle. If possible, get assis-
tance. When the above is done,
immediately contact your Toyota
dealer.
●Do not touch the high-voltage
parts, cables (orange), or con-
nectors.
●If electric wires are exposed
inside or outside your vehicle,
an electric shock may occur.
Never touch exposed electric
wires.
●If a fluid leak occurs, do not
touch the fluid as it may be the
carbonate ester-based organic
electrolyte from t he traction bat-
tery. If it comes into contact with
your skin or eyes, wash it off
immediately with a large
amount of water, and seek
immediate medical attention.
●In case of a vehicle fire, the
hydrogen gas in the hydrogen
tanks is released angled down-
ward on both the right side of
the vehicle as well as the rear of
the vehicle, in order to reduce
damage to the hydrogen tanks.
Keep away from the vehicle and
do not stand on either the right
side or the rear of the vehicle.
●If a vehicle fire occurs, it can be
extinguished with a Class A, B,
or C fire extinguisher. If using
water, apply a large amount
from a hydrant.
●If your vehicle needs to be
towed, do so with the rear
wheels lifted. If the wheels are
touching the ground, the electric
motor (traction motor) may con-
tinue to generate electricity.
This may cause a fire.
■Traction battery
●Never resell, trans fer, or modify
the traction batte ry. To prevent
accidents, traction batteries that
have been removed from dis-
posed vehicle are collected
through Toyota dealers. Do not
dispose of the traction battery
yourself.
If the traction battery is not
properly collected, the following
may occur, resulting in death or
serious injury:
• The traction battery may be ille- gally disposed or dumped, and
it is hazardous to the environ-
ment. Additionally, someone
may touch a high-voltage part,
resulting in an electric shock.

1665-1. Before driving
Owners Manual_USA_M62084_en
WARNING
●The brake system consists of 2
or more individual hydraulic sys-
tems; if one of the systems fails,
the other(s) will still operate. In
this case, the brake pedal
should be depressed more
firmly than usual and the brak-
ing distance will increase. Have
your brakes fixed immediately.
NOTICE
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not depress t he accelerator
and brake pedals at the same
time during drivin g, as this may
restrain the fuel cell system out-
put.
●Do not use the accelerator
pedal or depress the accelera-
tor and brake pedals at the
same time to hold the vehicle on
a hill.
■When parking the vehicle
Always set the parking brake, and
shift the shift position to P. Failure
to do so may cause the vehicle to
move or the vehi cle may acceler-
ate suddenly if the accelerator
pedal is accidentally depressed.
■Avoiding damage to vehicle
parts
●Do not turn the steering wheel
fully in either direction and hold
it there for an extended period
of time.
Doing so may damage the
power steering motor.
●When driving over bumps in the
road, drive as slowly as possible
to avoid damagi ng the wheels,
underside of the vehicle, etc.
■If you get a flat tire while driv-
ing
A flat or damaged tire may cause
the following situations. Hold the
steering wheel firmly and gradu-
ally depress the brake pedal to
slow down the vehicle.
●It may be difficult to control your
vehicle.
●The vehicle will make abnormal
sounds or vibrations.
●The vehicle will lean abnor-
mally.
Information on what to do in case
of a flat tire ( P.455)
■When encountering flooded
roads
Do not drive on a road that has
flooded after heavy rain, etc.
Doing so may cause the following
serious damage to the vehicle:
●Fuel cell system stalling
●Short in electrical components
●Fuel cell system damage
caused by water immersion
In the event that you drive on a
flooded road and the vehicle is
flooded, be sure to have your Toy-
ota dealer check the following:
●Fuel cell system
●Brake function
●Changes in quantity and quality
of transmission fluid, etc.
●Lubricant condition for the bear-
ings and suspension joints
(where possible), and the func-
tion of all joints, bearings, etc.

WARNING
The fuel cell unit compartment
contains many mechanisms and
fluids that may move suddenly,
become hot, or become electri-
cally energized. To avoid death or
serious injury, observe the follow-
ing precautions.
■When working on the fuel cell
unit compartment
●Be careful not to touch the high-
voltage parts or hydrogen-
related parts.
●Make sure that the “READY”
indicator is off.
●Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from the moving fan.
●Be careful not to touch the
motor, inverter, radiator, etc.
right after driving as they may
be hot. Coolant and other fluids
may also be hot.
●Do not leave anything that may
burn easily, such as paper and
rags, in the fuel cell unit com-
partment.
ItemsParts and tools●Do not smoke, cause sparks or
expose an open flame to the 12-
volt battery. 12-volt battery
fumes are flammable.
●Be extremely cautious when
working on the 12-volt battery. It
contains poisonous and corro-
sive sulfuric acid.
●Take care because brake fluid
can harm your hands or eyes
and damage painted surfaces. If
fluid gets on your hands or in
your eyes, flush the affected
area with clean water immedi-
ately.
If you still experience discom-
fort, consult a doctor.
●Never touch, disassemble,
remove or replace the high-volt-
age parts, cables and their con-
nectors. It can cause severe
burns or electric shock that may
result in death or serious injury.
■When working near the elec-
tric cooling fan or radiator
grille
Be sure the power switch is off.
With the power switch in ON, the
electric cooling fa n may automati-
cally start to run if the air condi-
tioning is on and/or the coolant
temperature is high. ( P.398)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent
flying or falling material, fluid
spray, etc. from getting in your
eyes.
NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner
filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter
removed may cause excessive
motor wear due to dirt in the air.

■Brake fluid can absorb moisture
from the air
Excess moisture in the brake fluid
can cause a dangerous loss of brak-
ing efficiency. Use only newly
opened brake fluid.
If any washer does not work or
the warning message appears
on the multi-information display,
the washer tank may be empty.
Add washer fluid.

■When filling the reservoir
Take care as brake fluid can harm
your hands and eyes and damage
painted surfaces.
If fluid gets on your hands or in
your eyes, flush the affected area
with clean water immediately.
If you still experi ence discomfort,
see a doctor.
NOTICE
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level
to go down slight ly as the brake
pads wear out or when the fluid
level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent
refilling, there m ay be a serious
problem.
