Air Conditioning
An automatic air conditioning has been adopted
in consideration to ease of use.
A clean air filter which removes pollen and
dust is included as a standard fitting for puri-
fying the air inside the cab.
Two air conditioning modes, A/C for eco-
nomical air conditioning and MAX for espe-
cially strong air conditioning, are provided.
Wireless Door Lock Remote Control System
With the wireless door lock remote control system, all the doors can be locked and unlocked by signals emitted
by the transmitter.
Power Window System
A power window system which enables all windows to be raised or lowered with switches has been adopted.
An auto up/down function and jam protection function have been added to the driver's power window.
HV Immobiliser System
HV immobiliser system will not allow the HV system to be started by duplicate key is used. This system
will permit the HV system to be started only when the ID code of the transponder chip impregnated in the
key matches the ID code registered beforehand in the transponder key amplifier.
Theft Deterrent System
When an attempt is made to forcibly enter the vehicle or open the hood or trunk lid without a key, or when
the battery terminals are removed and reconnected, this system sounds the horn and flashes the headlights,
taillights and emergency flashers for about 1 minute to alert the owner. At the same time, it locks all the
doors.
Storage Space
Ample storage space with an emphasis on practicality provided throughout the Prius.

AUXILIARY BATTERY
DESCRIPTION
All the body electrical systems and auxiliary equipment operate using the same 12 V battery used on ordinary
gasoline engine vehicles.
However, as the battery structure is different, Prius uses an exclusive battery. See page 42 in the THS (TOYOTA
Hybrid System) section for details of the auxiliary battery structure.
MULTIPLEX COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
A multiplex communication system has been adopted for body electrical system control and to achieve
a slimmer wiring harnesses configuration.
BEAN (Body Electronics Area Network) has been adopted between the body ECU, ECM, meter ECU,
air conditioning ECU, and the gateway ECU. Furthermore, AVC-LAN (Audio Visual Communication-
Local Area Network) has been adopted between the display ECU and the audio components.
The conversion of communication signals between BEAN and AVC-LAN is performed by the gateway
ECU.
UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter), which performs unidirectional communication,
has been adopted between the body ECU and the power window master switch.
A serial data link has been adopted between the body ECU and the door control receiver. In addition, a
serial data link has been adopted between the ECM, HV ECU, brake ECU, and the battery ECU, which
pertain to the control of the hybrid system.

POWER WINDOW SYSTEM
The power window system has the following features:
This system includes one-touch auto-up and down and key-off operation function. The one-touch auto up
and down function automatically fully closes and opens the driver's side window. The key-off operation
function makes it possible to operate the power windows for approximately 45 seconds after the ignition
key is turned to the ACC or LOCK position, if the front doors are not opened.
Also, a jam protection function has been adopted to the closing operation of the driver's window. If a for-
eign object becomes jammed in the window during one-touch auto-up or key-off operation of the driver's
window, this function automatically stops the power window and moves it downward.
This system controls the driver's door through the power window master switch, and the front passenger
and rear passenger doors through the body ECU. The power window master switch and the body ECU
maintain communication through the UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter).

DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM
The door lock control system has the following features:
This system has a ªkey-linked lock and unlockº, ªkey-confine preventionº and ªmanual unlock prohibi-
tionº functions.
A 2-step unlock function is provided to unlock the driver's door by turning the key cylinder first and to
unlock passenger's door by turning it the second time.
The control of this system is effected by the body ECU. The door lock control signal from the driver's door
is transmitted from the power window master switch to the body ECU through the UART (Universal
Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter).
If you unlock using the ignition key from the conditions in which all the doors are locked, the dome light
will be lighted.

WIRELESS DOOR LOCK REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM
The wireless door lock remote control system has the following features:
In this system, the wireless door control receiver performs the code identification process and the body
ECU effects the door lock control. Serial data link is provided for communication between the wireless
door control receiver and the body ECU.
A key-holder type transmitter has been adopted, and it contains the following three switches: the door lock
switch, door unlock switch, and panic switch.
A rolling code system, in which the signal configuration changes each time when a signal is transmitted
by the transmitter, has been adopted.
Panic alarm operation has been adopted.
The verification light function has been adopted. When the transmitter is used to lock or unlock the doors,
this function flashes the taillights to inform that the operation has been completed. However, at the time
of unlocking, the dome light will be lighted.

THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
1. General
The theft deterrent system uses the door lock control system components and some other parts. When
somebody attempts to forcibly enter the vehicle or open the engine hood or luggage compartment door
without a key, or when the battery terminals are removed and reconnected, the theft deterrent system
sounds the vehicle's horn, security horn and flashes the headlights, taillights, hazard lights and interior
light for about one minute to alert. At the same time, it locks all the doors.
The control of this system is effected by the body ECU.

HEAT METHOD: When the problem seems to occur when the suspect area is heated. 2
NOTICE:3 WATER SPRINKLING METHOD:
(1)
(2)
4 OTHER: When a malfunction seems to occur when electrical load is excessive.When the malfunction seems to occur on a rainy day or in a
high±humidity condition. Heat the component that is the likely cause of the malfunction
with a hair dryer or similar object. Check to see if the malfunction
occurs.
Sprinkle water onto the vehicle and check to see if the malfunc-
tion occurs.
Turn on all electrical loads including the heater blower, head
lights, rear window defogger, etc. and check to see if the mal-
function occurs.ON HINT:
If a vehicle is subject to water leakage, the leaked water may
contaminate the ECU. When testing a vehicle with a water leak-
age problem, special caution must be taken.
Malfunc-
tion
Do not heat to more than 60 °C (140 °F). (Temperature
is limited not to damage the components.)
Do not apply heat directly to parts in the ECU. (1)
(2)
Never sprinkle water directly into the engine compart-
ment, but indirectly change the temperature and hu-
midity by applying water spray onto the radiator front
surface.
Never apply water directly onto the electronic compo-
nents. NOTICE: IN±36
