When you put the running mode selec-
tor lever in “B” position and release
your foot from the accelerator pedal,
engine braking will be applied. Howev-
er, during the high speed driving you
may feel that deceleration by engine
braking is less than that of ordinary
vehicle.
Drive your vehicle without hard accel-
eration if the output control warning
light
() is on.
The hybrid vehicle battery temperature is
low or high, or the hybrid vehicle battery
capacity is decreased with the selector
lever at “R” during driving. If this occurs,
the output control warning light comes on.
If the output control warning light is on,
the hybrid system output is limited. Drive
your vehicle without hard acceleration.
Vehicle performance might be reduced sig-
nificantly especially when backing up.
Be sure to put the running mode selec-
tor lever in “P” position when parking.
With the selector lever in “N” position, the
hybrid vehicle battery assembly is not
charged, even if the gasoline engine is
operating. You cannot run your vehicle if
the selector lever is left in “N” position for
a long time because the hybrid vehicle
battery assembly will be discharged. When you leave your vehicle, apply the
parking brake with the running mode
selector lever in “P” position and be
sure to remove the key and lock all the
doors.
When you leave the the ignition key in the
“ACC” or “ON” position if the hybrid sys-
tem is not operating, the hybrid system
may not start because the auxiliary bat-
tery will be discharged.
CAUTION
When you leave your vehicle, be
sure to shut off the hybrid system.
Be sure to put the running mode
selector lever in “P” position be-
cause the vehicle can start with the
“READY” light on and the engine
stopped (no engine sound and
vibration). When the “READY” light
is on, if you leave your vehicle with
the running mode selector lever in
a position other than “P” and “N”,
the vehicle will creep and start
abruptly with the accelerator pedal
being depressed by mistake. It may
cause death or serious injury.
12p008a
If the multiinformation display shows
a message, the master warning light
() comes on in the instrument clus-
ter. Read the message and follow the
instruction.
When you leave your vehicle, or stop
or park for a while, put the selector
lever in “P”.
Charging is necessary. With the selec-
tor lever in “N” position, charging will
not be applied. The electric generator
operates in “P”, “D” or “B” position. If
you continue driving, put the selector
lever in “D” or “B” position and depress
the accelerator pedal. Do not leave it
in “N” position. When driving in traffic
jam, run in “D” position.

2. In front of the vehicle, pull up theauxiliary catch l ever and lift the
hood.

3. Hold the hood open by inserting the support rod into the slot.
Before closing the hood, check to see that
you have not forgotten any tools, rags,
etc. and return the support rod to its
clip—this prevents rattles. Then lower the
hood and make sure it locks into place.
If necessary, press down gently on the
front edge to lock it.
CAUTION
After inserting the support rod into
the slot, make sure the rod supports
the hood securely from falling down
on to your head or body.
NOTICE
Be sure to return the support rod to
its clip before closing the hood. Clos-
ing the hood with the support rod
inserted into the slot could cause the
hood to bend.

If any of the doors are unlocked without
the key or wireless remote control trans-
mitter and the key is not in the ignition
switch, all the doors will be automatically
locked again.
After 1 minute, the alarm will automatically
stop and the indicator light will starts
flashing again.
Reactivating the alarm
Once set, the system automatically resets
the alarm after the alarm stops.
The alarm will activate again under the
same circumstances described in
”Activating the system”.
Stopping the alarm
The alarm will be stopped by the following
three ways:
Turn the ignition key from the ”LOCK”
to ”ON” position.
Unlock any of the doors with the key
or wireless remote control transmitter.
Open the trunk with the key.
CANCELLING THE SYSTEM
The system will be cancelled by the
above mentioned three ways. If the tail lights come on for 2 seconds,
the theft deterrent system has been
alarmed. Check to see if there is any
abnormality on your vehicle.
TESTING THE SYSTEM
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the system as described above. The doors should be locked with the
key or wireless remote control transmit-
ter. Be sure to wait until the indicator
light goes off or starts flashing.
3. Unlock any door from the inside. The system s hould activate the alarm.
4. Stopping the alarm as described above.
5. Repeat this operation for the other doors, trunk and hood. When testing on
the trunk, also check that the system
is activated when the auxiliary battery
terminal is disconnected and then re-
connected. When testing on the hood,
release the lock with the hood lock
release lever and raise the hood.
If the system does not work properly,
have it checked by your Toyota dealer.

To squirt washer fluid, pull the lever
toward you and release it.
If the windshield wipers are off, they will
operate a couple of times after the washer
squirts.
For instructions on adding washer fluid,
see “Adding washer fluid” on page 225 in
Section 8−3.
In freezing weather, warm the windshield
with the defroster before using the washer.
This will help prevent the washer fluid
from freezing on your windshield, which
can block your vision.
NOTICE
Do not operate the wipers if the wind-
shield is dry. It may scratch the
glass.

To defog or defrost the rear window,
push the switch.
The key must be in the “ON” position.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the
rear window will quickly clear the surface.
An indicator light will illuminate to indicate
the defogger is operating.
Push the switch once again to turn the
defogger off.
The system will automatically shut off af-
ter the defogger has operated about 15
minutes. Make sure you turn the defogger off when
the window is clear. Leaving the defogger
on for a long time could cause the auxilia-
ry battery to discharge. The defogger is
not designed for drying rain water or for
melting snow.
NOTICE
When cleaning the inside of the rear
window, be careful not to scratch or
damage the heater wires or connec-
tors.

The gauge works when the ignition
switch is on and indicates the approxi-
mate quantity of fuel remaining in the
tank.
Nearly full–Indicator at “F”
Nearly empty–Indicator at “E”
It is a good idea to keep the tank over
1/4 full.
When you refuel on the slope, the indica-
tor may not show the correct level.
When you refuel less than about 11.4 L
(3.0 gal., 2.5 lmp. gal.), the fuel indicator
may not change.
After the auxiliary battery is reconnected,
one segment will flash for a while.Depending on the ambient temperature,
the fuel quantity is less than 45 L (11.9
gal., 9.9 lmp. gal.) even at “F”. However,
this does not affect the fuel consumption
and the remaining fuel ratio indicated on
the gauge. (For details, see “Fuel” on
page 146 in Section 3.)

The brake system warning light re-
mains on together with the “ABS”
warning light.
In this case, not only the antilock
brake system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely unsta-
ble during braking.
Any of the following conditions may oc-
cur, but do not indicate the malfunc-
tion:
The light may stay on for about 60
seconds after the ignition key is turned
to the “ON” position. It is normal if it
turns off after a while.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the warning light and
buzzer. It is normal if the light turns off
and the buzzer stops sounding after a
few seconds.
You may hear a small sound in the
engine compartment after the hybrid
system is started or the brake p edal is
depressed repeatedly. This is a pump
pulsating sound of the brake system,
and it is not a malfunction. (b) Driver’s Seat Belt Reminder Light
and Buzzer
This light and buzzer remind you to
buckle up the driver’s seat belt.
Once the ignition key is turned to ”ON” or
”START”, the reminder light flashes and
the buzzer sounds if the driver ’s seat belt
is not fastened. Unless the driver fastens
the belt, the light keeps on flashing and
the buzzer sounds 4 to 8 seconds.
(c) Front Passenger ’s Seat Belt Reminder Light
This light reminds you to buckle up the
front passenger ’s seat belt.
Once the ignition key is turned to “ON” or
“START”, the reminder light flashes if a
passenger sits in the front passenger seat
and does not fasten the seat belt. Unless
the front passenger fastens the belt, the
light stays flashing.
If luggage load is placed on the front
passenger seat, depending on its weight
and how it is placed on the seat, built −in
sensors in the seat cushion may detect
the pressure, causing the reminder light to
come on. (d) Discharge Warning Light
This light warns that the auxiliary battery
is being discharged.
If it comes on while you are driving, there
is a problem somewhere in the charging
system.
The hybrid system will continue to oper-
ate, however, until the auxiliary battery is
discharged. Turn off the air conditioning,
blower, radio, etc., and drive directly to
the nearest Toyota dealer or repair shop.

“START”—The hybrid system is ready
to operate.
Turn the key to the “START” position and
hold the ignition switch at this position for
about a few seconds until the “READY”
light comes on and a beep sounds. (If the
ambient temperature is low such as during
winter conditions, it may take time until
the “READY” light is on.” The key will
return to the “ON” position when released.
Being different from ordinary vehicles, you
cannot start your vehicle with the running
mode selector lever in “N” position.
“ON”—The hybrid system starts to run
when the accelerator pedal is depressed
with the “READY” light and all accesso-
ries on.This is the normal driving position.
“ACC”—Accessories such as the radio
operate, but the hybrid system is off.
If you leave your key in the “ACC” posi-
tion for a while, put the running mode
selector lever in “P” position.
If you leave the key in the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position and open the driver’s
door, a buzzer will remind you to remove
the key.
“LOCK”—The hybrid system is off and
the steering wheel is locked. The key
can be removed only at this position.
You must push in the key to turn it from
“ACC” to the “LOCK” position. The selec-
tor lever must be put in the “P” position
before pushing the key.
Vehicles with hybrid vehicle immobiliser
system–Once you remove the key, the hy-
brid vehicle immobiliser system is auto-
matically set. (See “Hybrid vehicle immobi-
liser system” on page 20 in Section 2
−1.)
When starting the hybrid system, the key
may seem stuck at the “LOCK” position.
To free it, first be sure the key is pushed
all the way in, and then rock the steering
wheel slightly while turning the key gently.
NOTICE
Do not leave the key in the “ACC” or
“ON” position for a long time when
the hybrid system is off. The auxiliary
battery will discharge.
