PRIUS c_U■
When replacing the 12-volt battery
●Use a Central Degassing type 12-volt battery (European regulati ons).
● Use a 12-volt battery that the case size is same as the previou s one (LN0),
20 hour rate capacity (20HR) is equivalent (35Ah) or greater, and perfor-
mance rating (CCA) is equivalent (240A) or greater.
• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt battery cannot be properly se cured.
• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low, even if the time period w here the vehi-
cle is not used is a short time, the 12-volt battery may discharge and the
hybrid system may not be able to start.
● Use a 12-volt battery with a handle. If a 12-volt battery witho ut a handle is
used, removal is more difficult.
For details, consult your Toyota dealer. ● After replacing, firmly attach the follow-
ing items to the exhaust hole of the 12-
volt battery.
Use the exhaust hose that was
attached to the 12-volt battery before
replacing and confirm that it is firmly
connected to the hole section of the
vehicle.

SAE 5W-20 oil may be used.
However, it must be replaced
with SAE 0W-20 at the next oil
change.
