1542-2. Charging
■When a door is unlocked while using “My Room Mode”
The charging connector unlocks,
charging stops and “My Room Mode” stops. In order to use “My Room Mode”
again, reconnect the AC charging cable
and start “My Room Mode” ( →P.153). When using “My Room Mode” with pub -
lic charging station, operation to start
charging using the charger may be required again before starting “My Room
Mode”.
■Meter display during charging
If “My Room Mode” is not turned on for approximately 100 seconds after the
power switch is turned on during
charging, the power switch will automat- ically turn off.
■While using “My Room Mode”
Any of the follo wing may occur.
●When the remaining charge of the
hybrid battery (traction battery)
reaches the lower l imit, the air condi- tioning system automat ically turns off.
In this situation, the air conditioning
system cannot be us ed until the remaining charge of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) increases. Turn the
power switch off and use “My Room Mode” after the remaining charge of
the hybrid battery ( traction battery) is
restored.
●When the outside te mperature is low,
the heater o utput may be limited due
to the air conditioning system opera - tion being restricted.
●Warning lights and indicators such as electric power steering system warn -
ing light (yellow) and malfunction indi -
cator lamp may turn on, but this is not a malfunction.
Also, when the surrounding area is
dark, the headlight s are turned on. ( →P.332)
■When a charging schedule is regis-
tered
When “My Room Mode” starts while the charging schedule is on standby,
charging schedules are ignored and
charging starts.
■When “My Room Mode” is used while the hybrid battery (traction
battery) is fully charged
When the power switch is turned on while the hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged and the charging con -
nector that supplies power is connected, “Charging Port Lid i s Open” is displayed
on the multi-informati on display. In this
case, press of th e meter control
switches to display the setting screen of “My Room Mode”, and then select “My
Room Mode”.
When “My Room Mode ” is used while the hybrid battery ( traction battery) is
fully charged, the ele ctric power of the
hybrid battery (trac tion battery) may be consumed. In this case, charging may
be performed again.
■When a message related to “My
Room Mode” is displayed
When a message is displayed on the
multi-information display while using or
attempting to start “My Room Mode”, take the following correction proce -
dures.
●“Traction battery is too low for “My
Room Mode””
There is insufficient remaining charge in
the hybrid battery ( traction battery) for
starting “My Room Mode”.
Wait until the charge of the hybrid bat-
tery (traction batter y) increases, then
start “My Room Mode”.
●““My Room Mode” has stopped due to
low traction battery”
The remaining charge in the hybrid bat -
tery (traction battery) is insufficient.
Stop using “My Room Mode” and
charge the hybrid battery (traction bat -
tery).
●““My Room Mode” will stop when trac -
tion battery is too low Reduce power
usage to continue using “My Room

ing Device) does not illuminate , even though the plug is connected
to an external power source.
When charging cannot be carried out
When charging does not start, even though the normal procedure is
followed, check each of the following items.
If a message is shown on the multi-information display, also refer to
P.160.
When charging cannot be carried out

charging procedure again.
Remote switch is offIf the remote switch is equipped, turn the
switch on.
Building breaker is tripped and power is
cut off
Check that the breaker is connected and
if there is no malfunc tion, check if the
vehicle can be charged through another
socket.
If charging is possible, the first socket
may have a malfunct ion. Contact the
building or facility manager, or an electri -
cian.

■When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an
aircraft, make sure you do not press any
buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are carry -
ing an electronic key in your bag etc.,
ensure that the buttons are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a but -
ton may cause the electronic key to emit
radio waves that could interfere with the operation of t he aircraft.
■Electronic key battery depletion
●The standard battery life is 1 to 2
years.
●If the battery becom es low, an alarm
will sound in the cabin and a message will be displayed on the multi-informa -
tion display when the hybrid system
stops.
●To reduce key battery depletion when
the electronic key is to not be used for long periods of time, set the electronic
key to the batter y-saving mode.
( →P.225)
●As the electronic key always receives
radio waves, the ba ttery will become depleted even if the electronic key is
not used. The following symptoms
indicate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery
when necessary.
• The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not oper -
ate.
• The detection area becomes smaller. • The LED indicator on the key surface
does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by yourself
( →P.543). However, as there is a dan-
ger that the electro nic key may be dam-
aged, it is recomm ended that replace-
ment is carried ou t by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do not
leave the electronic key within 1 m (3
ft.) of the followi ng electrical appli- ances that produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers • Cellular phones, cordless phones and
battery chargers
• Table lamps • Induction cookers
●If the electronic key is near the vehicle for longer than necessary, even if the
smart entry & star t system is not oper-
ated, the key battery may become depleted faster than normal.
■If a message regarding the state of the electronic key or power switch
mode, etc. is shown
To prevent trapping the electronic key inside the vehicle, leaving the vehicle
carrying the electronic key on your per -
son without turning t he power switch to OFF or other passengers from uninten -
tionally taking the key out of the vehicle,
