For safety and security
“PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator lights
The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The SRS air-
bag system is controlled by the airbag sensor assembly. As the airbags
deploy, a chemical reaction in the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-
toxic gas to help restrain the motion of the occupants.
QIf the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
OSlight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may be sustained from SRS airbags, due to the extremely high speed
deployment (inflation) by hot gases.
OA loud noise and white powder will be
emitted.
OParts of the airbag module (steering
wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as well as the front seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side
rails, may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.
OThe windshield may crack.
OThe hybrid system will be stopped and
fuel supply to the engine will be stopped. ( P.98)
OAll of the doors will be unlocked. ( P.204)
OVehicles with Secondary Collision Brake: The brakes and stop lights will be controlled automatically. ( P.392)
OThe interior lights will turn on automat- ically. ( P.420)
OThe emergency flashers will turn on automatically. ( P.500)
OVehicles with eCall: If any of the fol- lowing situations occur, the system is
designed to send an emergency call to the eCall control center, notifying them of the vehicle‘s location (without
needing to push the “SOS” button) and an agent will attempt to speak with the occupants to ascertain the
level of emergency and assistance required. If the occupants are unable to communicate, the agent automati-
cally treats the call as an emergency and helps to dispatch the necessary
emergency services. ( P.65)
• An SRS airbag is deployed. • A seat belt pretensioner is activated.
• The vehicle is involved in a severe rear-end collision.
QSRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS front airbags)
OThe SRS front airbags will deploy in
the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approxi-
mately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be
considerably higher in the following situ-
ations:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an under- ride collision, such as a collision in which the front of the vehicle under-
rides, or goes under, the bed of a truck
ODepending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt preten-sioners will activate.
QSRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS side and curtain shield air- bags)
OThe SRS side and curtain shield air-bags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold
level (the level of force corresponding to the impact force produced by an approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehi-
cle colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle orientation at an approximate
speed of 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph]).
OBoth SRS curtain shield airbags may

1322-2. Charging
This vehicle has been designed to
allow charging from an external
power source using a AC charging
cable for exclusive use with stan-
dard household AC sockets.
However, the vehicle differs greatly
from standard household electrical
goods in the following ways, and
incorrect usage could cause fire or
electric shock, possibly leading to
death or serious injury.
 The charging operation is
designed to operate at 8A-10A
continuously for the charge dura-
tion (approximately 9 hours).
( P.126)
 Charging can be conducted out-
doors.
To charge properly, follow the pro-
cedure after reading the explana-
tion below. Charging is intended to
be carried out by licensed drivers
only who properly understand the
charging procedure.
 Do not allow children to use the
AC charging cable without
supervision. Also, keep the AC
charging cable out of reach of
infants.
 When charging with a charger,
follow the procedures for using
each charger.
 When charging using a public
charging facility, check the set-
ting of the charging schedule
function.
• When the charging schedule is regis-
tered, temporarily turn off the function
or turn “Charge Now” on. ( P.144)
• When the charging schedule is set to
on, charging will not start even if the
AC charging cable is connected.
Also, charging fee may occur due to
connection of the AC charging cable.
Before charging, always check the
following items.
 The parking brake is applied.
( P.282)
 Lights such as the headlights,
emergency flashers and interior
lights etc. are turned off.
If these light switches are turned on,
then these features will consume elec-
tricity, and charging time will increase.
 The power switch is turned to
OFF. ( P.276)
Before charging, make sure that
WARNING
QWhen the AC charging cable is connected to the vehicle
Do not operate the shift lever.
In the unlikely event that the AC charging cable has been damaged,
the shift position may change from P to another position and the vehicle could move, possibly leading to an
accident.
Charging precautions
Confirm the following before
charging

changed suddenly (at the
entrance/exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
OWhen “--” or “E” is displayed, the sys-
tem may be malfunctioning. Take your vehicle to any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
ODisplays the outside temperature
within the range of -40°C (-40°F) to 50°C (122°F).
OWhen the outside temperature is
approximately 3°C (37°F) or lower,
the indicator will flash for approxi-
mately 10 seconds, then stay on.

QCustomization
Settings (e. g. meter display) can be
changed on the screen of the multi-
information display. ( P.184)
Switches the items of the odome-
ter, trip meter A, trip meter B and
the brightness of the instrument
cluster lights by pressing the “ODO
TRIP” switch.
 When the trip meter is displayed,
pressing and holding the switch
will reset the trip meter.
 When the instrument cluster light
control display is displayed,
pressing and holding the switch
will adjust the brightness of the
instrument cluster lights.
QInstrument cluster brightness adjustment

WARNING
QThe information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to
warm up before using the liquid crys- tal information display. At extremely low temperatures, the display moni-
tor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between
the driver’s shifting and the new shift range appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to down-
shift again, causing rapid and exces- sive engine braking and possibly an accident resulting in death or injury.
NOTICE
QTo prevent damage to the engine and its components
OThe engine may be overheating if “Engine Coolant Temp High Stop in a Safe Place See Owner’s Manual”
is shown on the multi-information display. In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and
check the engine after it has cooled completely. ( P.551)

QTo prevent the 12-volt battery from being discharged
If the interior lights remain on when the power switch is turned to OFF, the lights will go off automatically after 20 min-
utes.
QThe interior lights may turn on automatically when
If any of the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
or in the event of a strong rear impact, the interior lights will turn on automati-cally.
The interior lights will turn off automati- cally after approximately 20 minutes. The interior lights can be turned off man-
ually. However, in order to help prevent further collisions, it is recommended that they be left on until safety can be
ensured. (The interior lights may not turn on auto-
matically depending on the force of the impact and conditions of the collision.)
