For Canada: Unlock the doors
or trunk using the entry func-
tion or wireless remote con-
trol.
 Turn the power switch to ACC
or ON, or start the fuel cell
system. (The alarm will be
deactivated or stopped after a
few seconds.)
■System maintenance
The vehicle has a maintenance-free
type alarm system.
■Triggering of the alarm
The alarm may be triggered in the
following situations:
(Stopping the alarm deactivates the
alarm system.)
●For Canada: The doors are
unlocked using the mechanical
key.
●For Canada: The trunk is opened
using the mechanical key.
●A person inside the vehicle opens
a door, the trunk or hood, or
unlocks the vehicle.
●The 12-volt battery is recharged or
replaced when the vehicle is
locked. ( P.487)
■Alarm-operated door lock
In the following cases, depending
on the situation, the door may auto-
matically lock to prevent improper
entry into the vehicle:
●When a person remaining in the
vehicle unlocks the door and the
alarm is activated.
●While the alarm i s activated, a
person remaining in the vehicle
unlocks the door.
■Customization
Some functions can be customized.
(  P.512)
NOTICE
■To ensure the system oper-
ates correctly
Do not modify or remove the sys-
tem. If modified or removed, the
proper operation of the system
cannot be guaranteed.

Fuel cell electric ve hicle characteristics
Fuel cell electric vehicle efficiently use electricity, which i s
generated by a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxy-
gen in a fuel cell stack, and electricity charged in a traction
battery to drive the electric motor (traction motor).
The fuel is H2 (compressed hydrogen gas), so the exhaust is
only water and water vapor. As they do not release emissions
such as CO
2 (Carbon Dioxide) and NOx (Nitrogen Oxides),
fuel cell electric vehicles are environmentally friendly vehi-
cles.
Fuel cell electric vehicle components

782-1. Fuel cell electric vehicle
Owners Manual_USA_M62064_en
■Maintenance, repair, recycling,
and disposal
Contact your Toyota dealer regard-
ing maintenance, repair, recycling,
and disposal. Do not dispose of the
vehicle or any of its components
yourself.
The electric motor (traction
motor) allows smooth, powerful
takeoff and acceleration. This
vehicle drives similarly to a gas-
oline vehicle without any special
actions by the driver. ( P.169)
As there are no engine sounds
and the vehicle is quiet, opera-
tion noises unique to fuel cell
electric vehicle components
may be heard. ( P.77)
■Regenerative braking
In the following si tuations, the vehi-
cle generates electricity from the
deceleration of the vehicle while
driving.
●The accelerator pedal is released
while driving with the shift position
in D.
●The brake pedal is depressed
while driving with the shift position
in D.
■Charging the traction battery
Because electricity generated by the
fuel cell stack and regenerative
braking charges the traction battery,
the battery does not need to be
charged from an outside source.
However, if the vehicle is left parked
for a long time, the traction battery
will slowly discharge. For this rea-
son, be sure to drive the vehicle at
least once every few months for at
least 30 minutes or 10 miles (16
km). If the traction ba
ttery becomes fully
discharged and yo u are unable to
start the fuel cell system, contact
your Toyota dealer.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
 P.487
■Sounds and vibrations specific
to a fuel cell e lectric vehicle
Because there is no engine sound
or vibration, it is easy to mistake the
fuel cell electric vehicle for being off
when it is actually still running, as
indicated by the “READY” indicator
being illumina ted. For safety, make
sure to always shift the shift position
to P and apply the parking brake
when parked.
The system may behave differ-
ently on cold days as it may be
performing a special cold-start
process to improve the start up
performance. ( P.180)
Operation noises ( P.77),
purge process ( P.182), etc.,
may differ from usual. However,
this is not a malfunction.
Compressed hydrogen gas fuel
can be filled at hydrogen sta-
tions.
More information about hydrogen
fuel and fueling can be found in the
“Opening the fuel door” section of
this manual. ( P.210)

The regenerative braking
force will be increased
according to the driving condi-
tions to more efficiently
charge the traction battery
after the accelerator pedal is
released.

■High-voltage and high-temperature components
The fuel cell electric vehicle has high-voltage components (abo ut
650 V maximum) such as a fuel c ell stack, traction battery, power
control unit, fuel cell converter, high-voltage cables (which a re distin-
guished from low-voltage cables b y their orange covers), electric
motor (traction motor), etc., and high-temperature parts such a s the
radiator for cooling. Pay attention to all warning labels attached to
the vehicle.
This diagram is for illustrative purposes only and may differ f rom the actual
vehicle.

Fuel cell system
■Electromagnetic waves (EMF)
●High-voltage parts and cables in
fuel cell electric vehicles have an
electromagnetic shielding configu-
ration, and therefore emit approxi-
mately the same amount of
electromagnetic waves as con-
ventional gasoli ne-powered vehi-
cles or home electronic
appliances.
●Your vehicle may cause sound
interference in so me third party-
produced radio parts.
■Starting the fuel cell system in
an extremely col d environment
When the tracti on battery is extremely cold (below approxi-
mately -22˚F [-30˚C]) under the
influence of outsi
de temperature, it
may not be possible to start the fuel
cell system. In this case, try to start
the fuel cell system again after the
temperature of the traction battery
increases due to the outside tem-
perature increase etc.
■Traction battery
The traction battery has a limited
service life. The lifespan of the trac-
tion battery can change according to
driving style and driving conditions.
■Hydrogen Gas Characteristics
●Hydrogen gas ignites more easily than gasoline, however it is l ight than air
and disperses quickly. The hydrogen system and tank sufficientl y serve as
a counter-measure to prevent gas leaks. However, if by chance there is a
gas leak, the hydrogen gas is rapidly diluted until it is no lo nger flammable.
●As with gasoline and natural gas, hydrogen gas is not dangerous if it is
handled properly. Thoroughly rea d and understand the characteristics
shown in the table below.

Fuel cell system
WARNING
●The hydrogen tanks, fuel cell
stack, hydrogen pipelines, and
connecting components are
filled with hydrogen gas. Do not
remove or disassemble these
parts. Doing so can cause a
hydrogen gas leak, resulting in
fire or explosion of the vehicle,
which may result in death or
serious injury.
■When hydrogen gas leak or
other malfunctio n is detected
●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.
●If you notice gas leaking or any
other malfunction, immediately
stop the vehicle in a safe and
well-ventilated place, exit the
vehicle, and stay far away from
it.
●If a warning message is dis-
played in the multi-information
display, immediately stop the
vehicle in a safe, well-ventilated
outdoor place.
■Tailpipe
●Do not directly touch the water
or steam coming out of the tail-
pipe. Doing so may cause low-
temperature burns.
●The fuel cell electric vehicle
generates water during power
generation. The generated
water discharged from the tail-
pipe is not suitable for drinking.
Never drink the water coming
out of the tailpipe.
●You may notice a strange odor
from the tailpipe for a while after
the purchase of a new vehicle
or after an extended period of
non-use, but this is not a mal-
function. Also, the odor is harm-
less but it may be unpleasant,
so do not breathe in the
exhaust.
■High-voltage and high-tem-
perature precautions
This vehicle is equipped with a
high-voltage system. Follow the
instructions below as high-volt-
ages can cause severe burns and
electric shock that may result in
death or serious injury.
●Never touch, disassemble,
remove, or replace the high-
voltage parts, cables (orange),
or connectors.
●The components inside the fuel
cell unit compartment will
become hot during operation.
Be careful of both the high-volt-
age and high-temperature, and
always obey the warning labels
on the vehicle.
●Never touch the service plug
that is installed on the traction
battery. The service plug is used
to block high-voltages coming
from the traction battery during
maintenance or repair at your
Toyota dealer.
