(a) Brake System Warning Lights
These lights come on in the following
cases when the hybrid system is turned
on.
RED WARNING LIGHT
When the parking brake is applied...
When the vehicle speed exceeds 5 km/h
(3 mph), a message “PARK BRAKE” ap-
pears on the multi −information display, the
master warning light flashes and a warn-
ing tone sounds.
When the brake fluid level is low...
CAUTION
It is dangerous to continue driving
normally when the brake fluid level is
low.
YELLOW WARNING LIGHT
When the regenerative brake system
or electronically controlled brake
system fails...
When the yellow warning light comes on,
the regenerative brake system and/or elec-
tronically controlled brake system is mal-
functioning. Take your vehicle to your
Toyota dealer.
RED AND YELLOW WARNING LIGHT
When the hydraulic brake system
fails...
If the red and yellow warning lights come
on, it indicates a serious problem and you
can continue driving no longer.
Have your vehicle checked at your
Toyota dealer in the following cases:
The red warning light does not come
on even if the parking brake is applied
when the hybrid system is on.
The lights do not come on when the
hybrid system is turned on with the
parking brake released.
A red or yellow warning light turning on
briefly during operation does not indicate
a problem.
CAUTION
If any of the following conditions oc-
curs, immediately stop your vehicle at
a safe place and contact your Toyota
dealer.
The red warning light does not turn
off even after the parking brake is
released with the hybrid system
turned on.
The red warning light stays on with
the hybrid system turned on.
In either case, this can indicate that
the brakes may not work properly and
your stopping distance will become
longer. Depress the brake pedal firmly
and bring the vehicle to an immediate
stop.
The red brake system warning light
remains on together with the “ABS”
warning light and “CHECK VSC
SYSTEM” warning message.
In this case, not only the antilock
brake system and vehicle stability
control system will fail but also the
vehicle will become extremely unsta-
ble during braking.

In the following case, drive directly to
the nearest Toyota dealer.
The yellow warning light comes on
while driving.
Any of the following conditions may oc-
cur, but do not indicate the malfunc-
tion:
The red and yellow warning lights may
stay on for about 60 seconds after the
hybrid system is started. It is normal
if it turns off after a while.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the red and yellow warn-
ing lights. It is normal if the light turns
off after a few seconds.
The brake pedal stroke may be short
when the brake pedal is depressed
with the hybrid system off.(b) Driver’s Seat Belt Reminder Light
and Buzzer
The light and buzzer act as a reminder to
buckle up the driver’s seat belt.
Once the “POWER” switch is set at ON
or engine start, the reminder light flashes
and buzzer sounds if the driver ’s seat belt
is not fastened. Unless the driver fastens
the belt, the light continues flashing and
the buzzer sounds for about 6 seconds.
If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h
(12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened,
the buzzer will sound for about 10 sec-
onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfas-
tened, the buzzer will sound in a different
tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle
speed drops below 20 km/h (12 mph), the
buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the
buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer
still sounds, make sure the front passen-
ger ’s seat belt is fastened.
The vehicle speed linked seat belt remind-
er buzzer can be disabled. For details,
contact your Toyota dealer.
However, Toyota recommends that the
seat belt reminder buzzer be operational
to alert the driver and front passenger that
the seat belts are not fastened. (c) Front Passenger ’s Seat Belt Re-
minder Light and Buzzer
The light and buzzer act as a reminder to
have the front passenger buckle up the
seat belt.
Once the “POWER” switch is set at ON,
the reminder light flashes if a passenger
sits in the front passenger seat and does
not fasten the seat belt. Unless the front
passenger fastens the belt, the light con-
tinue flashing.
If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h
(12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened,
the buzzer will sound for about 10 sec-
onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfas-
tened, the buzzer will sound in a different
tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle
speed drops below 20 km/h (12 mph), the
buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the
buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer
still sounds, make sure the driver ’s seat
belt is fastened.
If luggage or other load is placed on the
front passenger seat, depending on its
weight, the reminder light to flash and
buzzer to sound.
The vehicle speed linked seat belt remind-
er buzzer can be disabled. For details,
contact your Toyota dealer.

When the vehicle is refueled, the driving
range is recalculated.
The actual driving range varies with driv-
ing habits and road conditions. If fuel con-
sumption is good, the driving range will be
longer than indicated. If fuel consumption
is poor, the driving range will be shorter
than indicated.
If the low fuel level warning light comes
on, refuel the vehicle even if the display
indicates that the vehicle can be driven
further.5. Average fuel consumption (“Average”)
Average fuel consumption is displayed
based on total driving distance and to-
tal fuel consumption.
The calculation is reset by touching the
“Reset”. If the average fuel consumption
is the lowest, the value of the best fuel
economy among average is overwritten.
Energy Monitor screen
Touching the “Energy” switch turns on
the “Energy Monitor” that displays the
hybrid system operating condition.
The arrow on the screen indicates the
movement of the energy. See “Energy
monitor” on page 3 for the representative
screen.
The segments of the battery on the
screen indicate the status of the hybrid
battery. See “—Hybrid battery status” on
page 5 for details.
To reset the hour: Push the “H” button.
To reset the minutes: Push the “M” button.
The “POWER” switch must be set at ACC
or ON.
If the electrical power source has been
disconnected from the clock, the time dis-
play will automatically be set to 1:00 (one
o’clock).
When the instrument panel lights are
turned on, the brightness of the time indi-
cator will be reduced.

REGENERATIVE BRAKE
When the brake is applied, the motor gen-
erator converts kinetic energy into electric
energy.
When applying brakes, you may hear a
sound coming from the motor generator.
However, this does not indicate any
trouble.
The regenerative brake works in the fol-
lowing operations.1. When the accelerator pedal is released, the reduced speed equal to engine
braking in a gasoline −fueled vehicle is
obtained in accordance with the running
mode position of the selector lever.
2. When the brake pedal is depressed with the selector lever in “D” or “B”,
the regenerative brake works.
HYDRAULIC BRAKE
This brake system has 3 independent hy-
draulic circuits. If any circuit should fail,
the other will still work. However, the ped-
al will be harder to press, and your stop-
ping distance will increase. Also, the
brake system warning light may come on.CAUTION
Do not drive your vehicle if any hy-
draulic circuit has failed. Have your
brakes fixed immediately.
BRAKE ACTUATOR
The brake actuator uses brake fluid pres-
surized by the pump to power −assist the
brakes. If the brake actuator fails during
driving, the brake system warning light
comes on and the buzzer sounds continu-
ously. In this case, the brakes may not
work properly. If they do not work well,
depress the brake pedal firmly. If the
brake system warning light comes on, im-
mediately stop your vehicle and contact
your Toyota dealer.
The red and yellow brake system warning
lights may stay on for about 60 seconds
after the hybrid system is turned on. It is
normal if the light turns off after a while.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly
may turn on the red warning light and
buzzer. It is normal if the light turns off
after a few seconds. In the following conditions, you may hear
a sound in the engine compartment. This
is not a malfunction.
The driver ’s door is opened with the
hybrid system turned off.
The brake pedal is depressed with the
hybrid system turned off.
After the hybrid system is turned on.
The brake pedal is depressed repeated-
ly with the hybrid system turned on.
After the hybrid system is turned off.
The brake pedal may be hard to depress
or the brake pedal stroke may be short
before turning the hybrid system on. This
is not a malfunction.
