pump shutoff system activates, turn the
ignition switch to “ACC” or “LOCK” once
and start it.

Inspect the ground under the vehicle
before restarting the hybrid system. If
you find that liquid has leaked onto
the ground, the fuel system has been
damaged and it is in need of repair.
In this case, do not restart the hybrid
system.
If you plan to drive your Toyota in
