●It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid acci-
dental contact wit h the shift lever, wiper switch etc.
● Use the rear door child-protector lock or the window lock switc h to
avoid children opening the door while driving or operating the
power window accidentally.
● Do not let small children operate equipment which may catch or
pinch body parts, such as the power window, hood, back door,
seats etc.
Riding with children
Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehi -
cle.
Use a child restraint system app ropriate for the child, until the

■If a warning message is displayed on the multi-information disp lay
A system may be temporarily unavailable or there may be a malfu nction in
the system.
● In the following situations, perform the actions specified in t he table. When
the normal operating conditions are detected, the warning messa ge will dis-
appear and the system will become operational.
If the warning message does not disappear, contact your Toyota dealer.
● If the warning message does not disappear even after the normal operating
conditions have returned and the vehicle has been driven for so me time,
contact your Toyota dealer.
SituationActions
When the area around the front
sensor is covered with dirt,
moisture (fogged up, covered
with condensation, ice, etc.), or
other foreign matterTo clean the part of the windshield in front
of the front sensor, use the windshield
wipers or the windshield defogger
( P. 378).
When the temperature around
the front sensor is outside of
the operational range, such as
when the vehicle is in the sun or
in an extremely cold environ-
ment
If the front sensor is hot, such as after the
vehicle is parked in the sun, use the air
conditioning system to decrease the tem-
perature around the front sensor.
If a sunshade was used when the vehi-
cle was parked, depending on its type,
the sunlight reflected from the surface
of the sunshade may cause the tem-
perature of the front sensor to become
excessively high.
If the front sensor is cold, such after the
vehicle is parked in an extremely cold
environment, use the air conditioning
system to increase the temperature
around the front sensor.
The area in front of the front
sensor is obstructed, such as
when the hood is open or a
sticker is attached to the part of
the windshield in front of the
front sensor.
Close the hood, remove the sticker, etc.
to clear the obstruction.

WARNING
■To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of
your vehicle
● If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the ho od until
the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot, caus-
ing serious injuries such as burns.
● After the hybrid system has been turned off, check that on the multi-
information display and the “READY” indicator are off.
When the hybrid system is operating, the gasoline engine may au tomati-
cally start, or the cooling fan may suddenly operate even if th e gasoline
engine stops. Do not touch or approach rotating parts such as t he fan,
which may lead to fingers or clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler)
getting caught, resulting in serious injury.
● Do not loosen the radiator cap while the hybrid system and radi ator are
hot.
Serious injuries, such as burns, may result from hot coolant an d steam
released under pressure.
NOTICE
■ When adding engine/power control unit coolant
Wait until the hybrid system has cooled down before adding engine/power
control unit coolant.
When adding coolant, do so slowly. Adding cool coolant to a hot hybrid sys-
tem too quickly can cause damage to the hybrid system.
■ To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
● Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sa nd or dust
etc.).
● Do not use any coolant additive.
