When trouble arises
●When removing the 12-volt battery:
P. 3 9 4
●After replacing, firmly attach the fol-
lowing items to the exhaust hole of the 12-volt battery.• Use the exhaust hose that was
attached to the 12-volt battery before replacing and confirm that it is firmly connected to the hole section of the
vehicle. • Use the exhaust hole plug included with the 12-volt battery replaced or the
one installed on the 12-volt battery prior to the replacement. (Depending on the 12-volt battery to be replaced,
the exhaust hole may be plugged.)

●For details, consult any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNING
■When removing the 12-volt bat- tery terminals
Always remove the negative (-) termi- nal first. If the positive (+) terminal contacts any metal in the surrounding
area when the positive (+) terminal is removed, a spark may occur, leading to a fire in addition to electrical shocks
and death or serious injury.
■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 any other than the intended terminal.
●Do not allow the other end of the jumper cable connected to the “+”
terminal 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 con- tact with each other.
●Do not smoke, use matches, ciga-rette lighters or allow open flame near the 12-volt battery.
■12-volt battery precautions
The 12-volt battery contains poison-
ous and corrosive acidic electrolyte, while related parts contain lead and lead compounds. Observe the follow-
ing precautions when handling the 12-volt battery:
●When working with the 12-volt bat-tery, always wear safety glasses and take care not to allow any bat-
tery fluids (acid) to come into con- tact 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 atten- tion. Place a wet sponge or cloth over the affected area until medical
attention can be received.

WARNING
●Always wash your hands after han- dling the 12-volt battery support,
terminals, and other battery-related parts.
●Do not allow children near the 12-volt battery.
■After recharging the 12-volt bat-tery
Have the 12-volt battery inspected at
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-able 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,
which may be detrimental to the health of passengers.
■When replacing the 12-volt bat-tery
●For information regarding 12-volt
battery replacement, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
●After replacing, securely attach the exhaust hose and exhaust hole plug to the exhaust hole of the
replaced 12-volt battery. If not prop- erly installed, gases (hydrogen) may leak into the vehicle interior,
and there is the possible danger of the gas igniting and exploding.
NOTICE
■When handling jumper cables
When connecting the jumper cables, ensure that they do not become entangled in the cooling fan, etc.
■To prevent damaging the vehicle
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.

When trouble arises
If the engine coolant temperature
gauge enters the red zone or
“Engine Coolant Temp High Stop
in a Safe Place See Owner’s
Manual” is shown on the multi-
information display
1 Stop the vehicle in a safe place
and turn off the air conditioning
system, and then stop the hybrid
system.
2 If you see steam: Carefully lift
the hood after the steam sub-
sides.
If you do not see steam: Care-
fully lift the hood.
3 After the hybrid system has
cooled down sufficiently, inspect
the hoses and radiator core
(radiator) for any leaks.
Radiator

If a large amount of coolant leaks,
immediately contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
4 The coolant level is satisfactory
if it is between the “F” and “L”
lines on the reservoir.

Water can be used in an emergency if
If your vehicle overheats
The following may indicate that
your vehicle is overheating.
The engine coolant tempera-
ture gauge ( P.100, 95) is in
the red zone or a loss of hybrid
system power is experienced.
(For example, the vehicle
speed does not increase.)

coolant is unavailable.
6 Start the hybrid system and turn
the air conditioning system on to
check that the radiator cooling
fan operates and to check for
coolant leaks from the radiator
or hoses.
The fan operates when the air condi- tioning system is turned on immediately
after a cold start. Confirm that the fan is operating by checking the fan sound and air flow. If it is difficult to check
these, turn the air conditioning system on and off repeatedly. (The fan may not operate in freezing temperatures.)
7 If the fan is not operating: Stop
the hybrid system immediately
and contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
If the fan is operating: Have the
vehicle inspected at the nearest
any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer.
If “Hybrid System Overheated
Output Power Reduced” is
shown on the multi-information
display
1 Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
2 Stop the hybrid system and
carefully lift the hood.
3 After the hybrid system has
cooled down, inspect the hoses
and radiator core (radiator) for
any leaks.
If a large amount of coolant leaks, immediately contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

5 Add coolant if necessary.
If water was added in an emergency, have the vehicle inspected at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
6 After stopping the hybrid system
and waiting for 5 minutes or
more, start the hybrid system
again and check for the multi-
information display.
If the message does not disap-
pear: Stop the hybrid system
and contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
If the message is not displayed:
The hybrid system temperature
has dropped and the vehicle
may be driven normally.
However, if the message appears again
frequently, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNING
■When inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood
until the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot.
●After the hybrid system has been turned off, check that the “READY”
indicator is off. When the hybrid system is operating, the gasoline engine may automatically start, or
the cooling fan may suddenly oper- ate even if the gasoline engine stops. Do not touch or approach
rotating parts such as the fan, which may lead to fingers or cloth-ing (especially a tie, a scarf or a
muffler) getting caught, resulting in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reservoir caps while the hybrid system and radiator are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power con-trol unit coolant
Add coolant slowly after the hybrid system has cooled down sufficiently. Adding cool coolant to a hot hybrid
system too quickly can cause dam- age to the hybrid system.
■To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or
dust etc.).

WARNING
■When attempting to free a stuck vehicle
If you choose to push the vehicle
back and forth to free it, make sure the surrounding area is clear to avoid striking other vehicles, objects or peo-
ple. The vehicle may also lunge for- ward or lunge back suddenly as it becomes free. Use extreme caution.
■When shifting the shift lever
Be careful not to shift the shift lever
with the accelerator pedal depressed. This may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may
cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■To avoid damaging the transmis-sion and other components
●Avoid spinning the front wheels and depressing the accelerator pedal more than necessary.
●If the vehicle remains stuck even after these procedures are per-
formed, the vehicle may require towing to be freed.
