■
If the engine is started with the power outlet main switch on
The maximum capacity of the power supply may decrease to below the stan-
dard, or may be cut off completely, even when the vehicle is stationary.
■ The protection circuit may be activated to cut the power supply if any
of the following conditions apply:
●The engine is started with the power outlet main switch on.
● Use of electrical appliances exceeding the maximum capacity is
attempted.
A sound may be heard when the protection circuit is activated.
This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
● Electrical appliances, which consume power exceeding 100W, have
been used continuously for a long time period.
● The total power usage by all electrical features (headlights, air condition-
ing, etc.) has exceeded the total vehicle maximum for an extended
period of time.
■ If the protection circuit is activated and the power supply is cut, con-
duct the following procedure:
Park the vehicle in a safe place, and then securely apply the park-
ing brake.
Check and ensure the following conditions:• The shift lever is in P or N. (automatic transmission)
• The shift lever is in N and the clutch pedal is not depressed. (manual transmission)
Make sure that the power consumption of the electric appliance is
within the maximum capacity of the power outlet and the appliance
is not broken.
Press the power outlet main switch again.
When the cabin temperature is high, open the windows to cool the tempera-
ture down. Once it reaches the normal temperature, turn the power outlet
main switch on again.
If the power supply is not resumed even after performing the above proce-
dure, have the vehicle inspected by a Toyota dealer.

NOTICE
■
To avoid damaging the power outlet and the plug
●Close the power outlet lid when not in use.
● Foreign objects or liquids that enter the power outlet may cause a short
circuit.
● Do not use plug adaptors to connect too many plugs to the power outlet.
● After inserting a plug, gently close the power outlet lid.
■ To prevent the fuse from being blown
Do not use a 115V AC appliance that requires more than maximum capacity.
If a 115V AC appliance that consumes more than maximum capacity is
used, the protection circuit will cut the power supply.
■ Appliances that may not ope rate properly (115V AC)
The following 115V AC appliances may not operate even if their power con-
sumption is under maximum capacity.
● Appliances with high initial peak wattage
● Measuring devices that process precise data
● Other appliances that require an extremely stable power supply
■ To prevent the battery from being discharged
Turn off all the vehicle’s electronic equipment and accessories, such as the
headlights and air conditioning, when electrical appliances that consume in
excess of 100W are used continuously for long periods of time.
■ To prevent any damage caused by heat
●Do not use any electrical appliances that give off intense heat such as
toasters, in any locations including the internal or external trim, seats and
deck.
● Do not use any electrical appliances, which are easily affected by vibration
or heat, inside the vehicle.
Vibration while driving, or the heat of the sun while parking, may result in
damage to those electrical appliances.
