5788-2. Steps to take in an emergency
YARIS_HV_OM_Europe_OM52J66E
Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and start the
hybrid system of your vehicle by turning the power switch to “ON”
position (vehicles without a smart entry & start system) or ON mode
(vehicles with a smart entry & start system).
Make sure the “READY” indicator comes on. If the indicator does
not come on, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Once the hybrid system has started, remove the jumper cables in
the exact reverse order from which they were connected.
Close the exclusive jump starting terminal cover, and reinstall the
fuse box cover to its original position.
When installing, first hook the fuse box cover onto the two rear
tabs.
Once the hybrid system starts, have the vehicle inspected at any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer as soon as possible.
■ Starting the hybrid system when the 12-volt battery is discharged
The hybrid system cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
● Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the hybrid system is off.
● Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
■ Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery will discharge gradually even when
the vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of
certain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the 12-volt
battery may discharge, and the hybrid system may be unable to start. (The
12-volt battery recharges automatically while the hybrid system is operating.)

■ Precautions when the 12-volt battery is discharged (vehicles with a
smart entry & start system)
● In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using entry func-
tion of the smart entry & start system immediately after the 12-volt battery
has been disconnected and reconnected. Use the wireless remote control
or the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
● The hybrid system may not start on the first attempt after the 12-volt battery
has recharged but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a
malfunction.
● The power switch mode is memorized by the vehicle. When the 12-volt bat-
tery is reconnected, the system will return to the mode it was in before the
12-volt battery was discharged.
Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery, turn the power switch off. If the
power switch was in ACCESSORY or ON mode before the 12-volt battery
was discharged, the audio system and/or air conditioning system may oper-
ate when the 12-volt battery is reconnected.
WARNING
■ Avoiding 12-volt battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flam-
mable gas that may be emitted from the 12-volt battery:
● Make sure each jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that
it is not unintentionally in contact with anything other than the intended ter-
minal.
● Do not allow the other end of the jumper cable connected to the “+” termi-
nal to come into contact with any other parts or metal surfaces in the area,
such as brackets or unpainted metal.
● Do not allow the + and - clamps of the jumper cables to come into contact
with each other.
● Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette lighters or allow open flame near
the 12-volt battery.
■ After recharging the 12-volt battery
Have the 12-volt battery inspected at any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible. If
the 12-volt battery is deteriorating, continued use may cause the 12-volt
battery to emit a malodorous gas, whic h may be detrimental to the health of
passengers.

■ 12-volt battery precautions
The 12-volt battery contains poisonous and corrosive acidic electrolyte,
while related parts contain lead and lead compounds. Observe the following
precautions when handling the 12-volt battery:
● When working with the 12-volt battery, always wear safety glasses and
take care not to allow any battery fluids (acid) to come into contact with
skin, clothing or the vehicle body.
● Do not lean over the 12-volt battery.
● In the event that battery fluid comes into contact with the skin or eyes,
immediately wash the affected area with water and seek medical attention.
Place a wet sponge or cloth over the affected area until medical attention
can be received.
● Always wash your hands after handling the battery support, terminals, and
other battery-related parts.
● Do not allow children near the 12-volt battery.
NOTICE
■When handling jumper cables
When connecting the jumper cables, ensure that they do not become entan-
gled in the cooling fan.
■ Exclusive jump starting terminal
The exclusive jump starting terminal is to be used when charging the 12-volt
battery from another vehicle in an emergency. It cannot be used to jump
start another vehicle.
