device from the p ower outlets,
check that the devices are not
malfunctioning, reconnect the
devices and then press the
“AC120V” switch again.
●If the temperature inside the vehi-
cle is high, such as after the vehi-
cle has been parked under the
sun, move the vehicle to a shaded
area, use the air conditioning sys-
tem to sufficiently cool the interior,
and then press the “AC120V”
switch again.
If the power outlets cannot be used
even after performing the appropri-
ate procedures above, have the
vehicle inspected by your Toyota
