2006 HIGHLANDER (Hybrid) from Mar. ’05 Prod. (OM48530U)
“START”—Starting position of hybrid
system (“READY” indicator on). The key
will return to the “ON” position when
released.
For starting tips, see page 325 in Section
3.
“ON”—Hybrid system on and all acces-
sories on.
This is the normal driving position.
“ACC”—Accessories such as the radio
are operational, but the hybrid system
is off.
If you leave the key in the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position and open the driver’s
door, a buzzer will remind you to remove
the key. “LOCK”—Hybrid system is off and the
steering wheel is locked. The key can
be removed at this position only.
You must push in the key to turn it from
“ACC” to the “LOCK” position. The selec-
tor lever must be in the “P” position be-
fore pushing in the key.
Vehicles with engine immobilizer sys-
tem—Once you remove the key, the en-
gine immobilizer system is automatically
set. (See “Engine immobilizer system” on
page 25 in Section 1
−2.)
When starting the hybrid system, the key
may seem stuck at the “LOCK” position.
To free it, first be sure the key is pushed
all the way in, and then rock the steering
wheel slightly while turning the key.
Approximately five hours after the hybrid
system is turned off, you may hear sound
coming from underneath the luggage
compartment for several minutes. This is
normal operation and does not indicate a
malfunction. (See “Leak detection pump”
on page x.)
It is not a malfunction if the needles on
all meters and gauges move slightly when
the ignition key is turned to the “ACC”,
“ON” or “START” position.
NOTICE
Do not leave the key in the “ON”
position if the hybrid system is off.
The auxiliary battery will discharge.

Before making these checks, make sure
you have sufficient fuel and that you have
followed the correct starting procedure giv-
en in “How to start the hybrid system” on
page 326 in Section 3. If your vehicle is
equipped with the engine immobilizer sys-
tem, also check whether the other keys
will start the hybrid system. If they work,
your key may be broken. Have the key
checked at your Toyota dealer. If none of
your keys work, there may be a malfunc-
tion in the immobilizer system. Call your
Toyota dealer. (See “Keys (with engine
immobilizer system)” on page 22 in Sec-
tion 1−2.)
If the instrument cluster dims or the
instrument cluster display turns off
with the ignition on... 1. Check that the auxiliary battery termi- nals are tight and clean.
2. If the auxiliary battery terminals are O.K., the auxiliary battery is dis-
charged. You may try jump starting.
See “(b) Jump starting” on page 340
for further instructions.
NOTICE
Hybrid vehicles cannot be push
started.
If the instrument cluster displays with
normal brightness levels with the igni-
tion on...
The hybrid system may be faulty. Contact
your Toyota dealer. If the auxiliary battery is discharged,
the hybrid system can be started by
jump starting. Depending on the vehicle
condition, however, the hybrid system
may not start.
To avoid serious injury and damage to
your vehicle which might result from an
explosion of the battery, acid burns,
electrical burns, or damaged electronic
components, follow instructions careful-
ly.
If you are unsure about how to follow this
procedure, we strongly recommend that
you seek the help of a competent me-
chanic or towing service.
CAUTION
Batteries contain sulfuric acid
which is poisonous and corrosive.
Wear protective safety glasses when
jump starting, and avoid spilling
acid on your skin, clothing, or ve-
hicle.
If your vehicle will not start—

4. With pushing down the shift lock
override button, shift out of the “P”
position while depressing the brake
pedal.
As the hybrid system starts only with the
transmission in the “P” position, put the
selector lever in “P” whenever starting the
system.
Be sure to have the system checked by
your Toyota dealer as soon as possible. You can purchase a new key at your
Toyota dealer if you can give them the
key number. If your vehicle is equipped
with the engine immobilizer system, the
dealer will also need your master key.
Vehicles with engine immobilizer system—
Even if you lose only one key, contact
your Toyota dealer to make a new key. If
you lose all your master keys, you cannot
make new keys; the whole engine immobi-
lizer system must be replaced.
See the suggestion given in “Keys” on
page 22 in Section 1
−2.
If your keys are locked in the vehicle and
you cannot get a duplicate, many Toyota
dealers can still open the door for you,
using their special tools. If you must
break a window to get in, we suggest
breaking the smallest side window be-
cause it is the least expensive to replace.
Be extremely cautious to avoid cuts from
the glass. You can purchase a new wireless re-
mote control transmitter at your Toyota
dealer.
Have the registered identification numbers
of your transmitters deleted from your ve-
hicle by your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible to avoid the possibility of theft or
an accident. Then, have the identification
number of your new transmitter registered.
At the same time, you must bring all of
the remaining transmitters to have them
registered again as well.
You can use the wireless remote control
system with the new transmitter. Contact
your Toyota dealer for detailed information.
