Interior features
WARNING
●The gasoline engine starts auto-
matically when the remaining
charge of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) decreases.
When using a power outlet in an
area with poor ventilation or an
enclosed area, such as a
garage or a place where snow
has piled up, properly use an air
intake and exhaust device to
prevent lack of oxygen and full-
ness of exhaust gas. If such
device cannot be used, do not
use the power outlet.
■When using the power outlet
while driving
●Do not use devices such as the
following when driving. Also, do
not use a device if it cannot be
secured within the vehicle.
• Devices which may distract the driver and be a hinderance to
safe driving, such as a TV, DVD
player, etc.
• When the device is not com- pletely secured and may fall
over in the event of sudden
braking or a collision
• When the device may fall result- ing on an accident, or may gen-
erate heat result ing in a fire
• When there is a risk of burns,
etc. (a toaster, microwave, elec-
tric heater, electric kettle, coffee
maker, etc.)
• Devices which may fall under the pedals and prevent the
brake pedal from being
depressed, such as a hair dryer,
AC adaptor, mouse, etc.
●Do not use devices which pro-
duce steam while the windows
are closed. Doing so may cause
the windows to fog up, reducing
visibility and making it difficult to
drive safely. Also, the steam
may damage or negatively
affect other devices. If the
device must be used, stop the
vehicle and open the windows
before use.
NOTICE
■To avoid short circuit or mal-
function
Observe the following precau-
tions. Failure to do so may lead to
the power outlet not operating
correctly or damage to the vehicle
or a connected device.
●Do not set a toaster or other
device which generates heat
near the interior components or
on a seat. Heat may cause
these parts to melt or burn.
●Do not use devices which are
sensitive to vibration or heat in
the vehicle. These devices may
malfunction due to vibration
while driving or heat while the
vehicle is parked in the sun.
●When not using a power outlet,
make sure to close the cover. If
foreign matter or a liquid enters
the power outlet, it may cause a
malfunction or s hort circuit.
■Using the power outlet while
parked or stopped
●Water may le ak from the
exhaust pipe while the engine
running if the power outlet is
used for a long time. However,
this is not a malfunction.

4306-4. Using the other interior features
When power supply does not
start, even though the normal
procedure is followed, check
each of the following items.
■Power outlet cannot be
used
NOTICE
●At extremely low temperatures,
water may freeze in the exhaust
pipe and make it difficult to start
the engine, or an odor may
come from the exhaust pipe. In
this case, stop using the power
outlet, and then drive the vehi-
cle for 15 to 30 minutes.
When the power outlet
(AC 120 V 1500 W)
cannot be used prop-
erly
When the power outlet can-
not be used, even though
the normal procedure is fol-
lowed, check the following
items.
When the power outlet
cannot be used properly
Likely causeCorrection pro-
cedure
Quantity of fuel
remaining is low
and the remain-
ing charge of the
hybrid battery
(traction battery)
is insufficient
After refueling,
drive for a while
to restore the
remaining
charge of the
hybrid battery
(traction bat-
tery). Then,
press the AC
120 V switch
again.

Maintenance and care
■Front side windows water-
repellent coating (except quar-
ter window)
●The following precautions can
extend the effectiveness of the
water-repellent coating.
• Remove any dirt, etc., from the front side windows regularly.
• Do not allow dirt and dust to accu- mulate on the windows for a long
period. Clean the windows with a
soft, damp cloth as soon as possi-
ble.
• Do not use wax or glass cleaners
that contain abrasives when
cleaning the windows.
• Do not use any metallic objects to
remove condensation build up.
■Brake pads and calipers
Rust may form if the vehicle is
parked with wet brake pads or disc
rotors, causing them to stick. Before
parking the vehicle after it is
washed, drive slow ly and apply the
brakes several times to dry the
parts.
■Bumpers
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.
■Plated portions
If dirt cannot be removed, clean the
parts as follows:
●Use a soft cloth dampened with
an approximately 5% solution of
neutral detergent and water to
clean the dirt off.
●Wipe the surface with a dry, soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture.
●To remove oily deposits, use alco-
hol wet wipes or a similar product.
WARNING
■When washing the vehicle
Do not apply water to the inside of
the engine compartment. Doing
so may cause the electrical com-
ponents, etc. to catch fire.
■When cleaning the windshield
(vehicles with rain-sensing
windshield wipers)
Set the wiper switch to off.
If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”,
the wipers may operate unexpect-
edly in the following situations,
and may result in hands being
caught or other serious injuries
and cause damage to the wiper
blades.
Off
AUTO
●When the upper part of the
windshield where the raindrop
sensor is located is touched by
hand
●When a wet rag or similar is
held close to the raindrop sen-
sor
●If something bumps against the
windshield
●If you directly touch the raindrop
sensor body or if something
bumps into the ra indrop sensor
■Precautions regarding the
exhaust pipes
Exhaust gasses cause the
exhaust pipes to become quite
hot.
When washing the vehicle, be
careful not to touch the pipes until
they have cooled sufficiently, as
touching hot exhaust pipes can
cause burns.

■Repair and replacement
It is recommended that genuine
Toyota parts be used for repairs to
ensure performanc e of each sys-
tem. If non-Toyota p arts are used in
replacement or if a repair shop other
than a Toyota dealer performs
repairs, confirm the warranty cover-
age.
■Allow inspection and repairs to
be performed by a Toyota
dealer
●Toyota technicians are well-
trained specialists and are kept up
to date with the latest service
information. They are well
informed about the operations of
all systems on your vehicle.
●Keep a copy of the repair order. It
proves that the maintenance that
has been performed is under war-
ranty coverage. If any problem
should arise while your vehicle is
under warranty, your Toyota
dealer will promptly take care of it.
General maintenance should be
performed on a daily basis. This
can be done by yourself or by a
Toyota dealer.
Scheduled maintenance should
be performed at specified inter-
vals according to the mainte-
nance schedule.
For details about maintenance
items and schedules, refer to the
“Scheduled Maintenance Guide” or
“Owner’s Manual Supplement”.
Maintenance require-
ments
To ensure safe and econom-
ical driving, day-to-day care
and regular maintenance
are essential. It is the
owner’s responsibility to
perform regular checks.
Toyota recommends the fol-
lowing maintenance:
WARNING
■If your vehicle is not properly
maintained
Improper maintenance could
result in serious damage to the
vehicle and possible death or seri-
ous injury.
■Handling of the 12-volt bat-
tery
●Engine exhaust, some of its
constituents, and a wide variety
of automobile components con-
tain or emit chemicals known to
the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects and
other reproductive harm. Work
in a well ventilated area.
●Oils, fuels and fluids contained
in vehicles as well as waste pro-
duced by component wear con-
tain or emit chemicals known to
the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Avoid
exposure and wash any
affected area immediately.
●12-volt battery posts, terminals
and related accessories con-
tain lead and lead compounds
which are known to cause brain
damage. Wash your hands after
handling. ( P.462)
