Observe the following pre-
cautions when children are
in the vehicle.
Use a child restraint system
appropriate for the child,
until the child becomes
large enough to properly
wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact
with the shift lever, wiper
switch, etc.
 Use the rear door child-pro-
tector lock or the window
lock switch to avoid children
opening the door while driv-
ing or operating the power
window accidentally.
( P.189, 229)
 Do not let small children
operate equipment which
may catch or pinch body
parts, such as the power
window, hood, back door,
seats, etc.

cle

in the vehicle, and never allow
children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the
vehicle or shift the vehicle into
neutral. There is also a danger
that children ma y injure them-
selves by playing with the side

701-4. Theft deterrent system
1-4.Theft deterrent system
The indicator light flashes after
the power switch has been
turned to off to indicate that the
system is operating.
The indicator light stops flashing
after the power switch has been
turned to ACC or ON to indicate
that the system has been can-
celed.
■System maintenance
The vehicle has a maintenance-free
type immobilizer system.
■Conditions that may cause the
system to malfunction
●If the grip portion of the key is in
contact with a metallic object
●If the key is in close proximity to or
touching a key to the security sys-
tem (key with a built-in transpon-
der chip) of another vehicle
Immobilizer system
The vehicle’s keys have
built-in transponder chips
that prevent the hybrid sys-
tem from starting if a key
has not been previously
registered in the vehicle’s
on-board computer.
Never leave the keys inside
the vehicle when you leave
the vehicle.
This system is designed to
help prevent vehicle theft but
does not guarantee absolute
security against all vehicle
thefts.
Operating the system
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.

1022-2. Charging
■Locking the charging con-
nector
The charging connector will be
automatically locked when
inserting it into the AC charging
inlet.
(The setting can be changed:
 P.103)
■Unlocking the charging
connector
The AC charging connector will
be unlocked when the doors are
unlocked using the smart key
system or wireless remote con-
trol.
The AC charging connector
locks when connected and
unlocks when the door is
unlocked, so locking/unlocking
the AC charging connector does
not necessarily correspond to
locking/unlocking the door.
WARNING
●The plug is not dirtied by dust
etc.
Remove the plug from the outlet
before inspecting it. If any abnor-
malities are found in the AC
charging cable as a result of the
inspection, immediately stop use
and consult your Toyota dealer.
■Maintaining the AC charging
cable
When the AC charging cable is
dirty, first remove the dirt with a
hard, wringed cloth, and then
wipe the cable with a dry cloth.
However, never wash it with
water. If the AC charging cable is
washed with water, fire or electric
shock may occur during charging,
possibly resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
■When not using the AC
charging cable for a long time
Remove the plug from the outlet.
Dust could accumulate on the
plug or in the outlet, possibly
causing overheating which could
lead to a fire.
Also, keep the cable in a place
free from moisture.
Locking an d unlock-
ing AC char ging con-
nector
The AC charging connector
will be locked when it is
connected to the AC
charging inlet, preventing
the AC charging cable from
being disconnected while
