5218-2. Steps to take in an emergency

When trouble arises
●If the tire pressure warning light
comes on even after tire infla-
tion pressure adjustment, it is
probable that you have a flat
tire. Check the tires. If a tire is
flat, change it with the spare tire
and have the flat tire repaired by
the nearest Toyota dealer.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and
braking. If the vehicle tires dete-
riorate, you could lose control of
the steering wheel or the
brakes.
■If a blowout or sudden air
leakage should occur
The tire pressure warning system
may not activate immediately.
■Maintenance of the tires
Each tire, including the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufac-
turer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label (tire and
load information label). (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label [tire and load infor-
mation label], you should deter-
mine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
WARNING
As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS-tire pressure warning sys-
tem) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale (tire pressure
warning light) w hen one or more
of your tires is s ignificantly under-
inflated. Accord ingly, when the
low tire pressure te lltale (tire pres-
sure warning light) illuminates,
you should stop and check your
tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pres-
sure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire
to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping abil-
ity.
Please note that the TPMS (tire
pressure warning system) is not a
substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s
responsibility to m aintain correct
tire pressure, even if under-infla-
tion has not reached the level to
trigger illumination of the TPMS
low tire pressure te lltale (tire pres-
sure warning light).

5248-2. Steps to take in an emergency
a safe place and, if the fuel level is
low, refuel the vehicle.
• “Hybrid System Stopped”
• “Engine Stopped”
●If “Maintenance required for
DCDC converter cooling parts
See Owner’s Manual” is shown,
the filter may be clogged, the air
intake vent may be blocked, or
there may be a gap in the duct.
Therefore, perform the following
correction procedure.
• If the air intake vent or filter of the DC/DC converter are dirty, per-
form the procedures on P.486 to
clean them.
• If the warning message is shown when the air intake vent and filter
of the DC/DC converter are not
dirty, have the vehicle inspected
at your Toyota dealer.
●If “12-Volt Battery Charging Sys-
tem Malfunction Stop in a Safe
Place See Owner’s Manual” is
shown
Indicates a malfunction in the vehi-
cle’s charging system. Pull over and
stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe
to do so.
While the message is displayed, the
functions of the air conditioning, etc.
may be partially lim ited in order to
reduce the power consumption of
the 12-volt battery.
■If “Hybrid System Overheated
Output Power Reduced” is
shown
The message may be shown when
driving under severe operating con-
ditions. (For example, when driving
up a long steep hill or driving up a
steep hill in reverse.)
Coping method: P.544
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be
Protected Refrain from the Use
of N Position” is shown
This message may be displayed
when the shift lever is in N. As the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) cannot be charged when the
shift lever is in N, shift the shift lever
to P when the vehicle is stopped.
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be
Protected Shift into P to
Restart” is shown
This message is displayed when the
hybrid battery (traction battery)
charge has becom e extremely low
because the shift lever has been left
in N for a certain amount of time.
When operating the vehicle, shift to
P and restart the hybrid system.
■If “Shift to P when Parked” is
shown
Message is displayed when the
driver’s door is opened without turn-
ing the power switch to OFF with the
shift lever in any p osition other than
P.
Shift the shift lever to P.
■If “Shift is in N Release Acceler-
ator Before Shifting” is shown
Message is displayed when the
accelerator pedal has been
depressed and the shift lever is in N.
Release the accelerator pedal and
shift the shift lever to D or R.
■If “Press Brake when Vehicle is
Stopped Hybrid System may
Overheat” is shown
Message is displayed when the
accelerator pedal is depressed to
maintain the vehicl e position when
stopped on a upward slope, etc.
If this continues, the hybrid system
may overheat.
Release the accelerator pedal and
depress the brake pedal.
■If “Auto Power OFF to Conserve
Battery” is shown
Power was turned off due to the
automatic power off function.
Next time when starting the hybrid
system, operate the hybrid system
for approximately 5 minutes to

When trouble arises
recharge the 12-volt battery.
■If “Engine Oil Level Low Add or
Replace” is displayed
The engine oil level may be low.
Check the level of the engine oil,
and add engine oil if necessary.
This message may be displayed if
the vehicle is sto pped on a slope.
Move the vehicle to a level surface
and check if the message disap-
pears.
■If “Maintenance Required
Soon” is shown
Indicates that all maintenance
according to the driven distance on
the maintenance schedule
* should
be performed soon.
Comes on approximately 4500
miles (7200 km) after the message
has been reset.
If necessary, perform maintenance.
Please reset the message after the
maintenance is performed.
(  P.451)
*: Refer to the separate “Scheduled
Maintenance Guide” or “Owner’
Manual Supplement” for the main-
tenance interval applicable to your
vehicle.
■If “Maintenance Required Visit
Your Dealer” is shown
Indicates that all maintenance is
required to correspond to the driven
distance on the maintenance sched-
ule

■If a message that indicates the
malfunction of front camera is
displayed
The following systems may be sus-
pended until the problem shown in
the message is resolved. ( P.313,
511)
●PCS (Pre-Collision System)
●LTA (Lane Tracing Assist)
●Automatic High Beam
●RSA (Road Sign Assist)*
●Dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range
*: If equipped
■If “Radar Cruise Control
Unavailable See Owner’s Man-
ual” is shown
The dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range system is sus-
pended temporarily or until the prob-
lem shown in the message is
resolved. (causes and coping meth-
ods: P.313)
■If “Radar Cruise Control
Unavailable” is shown
The dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range system cannot
be used temporarily. Use the sys-
tem when it becomes available
again.
