The hybrid system uses high voltage up to 650 V.
The system can be hot while and after starting. Be
careful of both the high voltage and the high tem-
perature. Obey the caution labels attached to the vehicle.
Road accident cautions
CAUTION
Pull your vehicle off the road, put the transmis-
sion in the “P” position, apply the parking brake, turn the hybrid system off and carry the key.
In order to avoid death or serious injury, do not
touch high voltage wiring, connectors or high volt-
age parts (inverter unit, hybrid battery and etc.).
High voltage parts and cables are indicated in the illustration on page 7.
If exposed electric wires are protruding inside or
outside of your vehicle, an electric shock may oc- cur. Never touch the electric wires.
If fluid leaks or gets into some parts of the ve-
hicle, never touch it because it may be strong al-
kaline electrolyte from the hybrid battery. If it con-
tacts your skin or eyes, wash it off immediately
with a large amount of water or if possible, boric
acid solution. Get immediate medical attention in order to help avoid serious injury.

The hybrid system uses high voltage up
to 650 V. High voltage components are
indicated in the illustration above. High
voltage cables are orange. The system
can be hot while and after starting. Be
careful of both the high voltage and the
high temperature.

CAUTION
Pull your vehicle off the road, put
the transmission in the “P” posi-
tion, apply the parking brake, turn
the hybrid system off and carry the
key.
In order to avoid death or serious
injury, do not touch high voltage
wiring, connectors or high voltage
parts (inverter unit, hybrid battery
and etc.). High voltage parts and
cables are indicated in the illustra-
tion on page 7.
If exposed electric wires are pro-
truding inside or outside of your
vehicle, an electric shock may oc-
cur. Never touch the electric wires.
If fluid leaks or gets into some
parts of the vehicle, never touch it
because it may be strong alkaline
electrolyte from the hybrid battery.
If it contacts your skin or eyes,
wash it off immediately with a large
amount of water or if possible, bo-
ric acid solution. Get immediate
medical attention in order to help
avoid serious injury.
If a fire occurs in the hybrid ve-
hicle, leave the vehicle as soon as
possible. Never use a fire extin-
guisher that is not meant for elec-
tric fires. Using a small amount of
water may be also dangerous.
If your vehicle needs to be towed,
do it with the front wheels raised.
If the wheels with the motor gener-
ator are on the ground when tow-
ing, the motor may continue to gen-
erate electricity. This may cause the
electricity leakage. Depending on
the severity of the damage, electric-
ity leakage may cause fire. See “If
your vehicle needs to be towed” on
page 327 in Section 4.
The emergency shut off system blocks
off the high voltage current and stops
the fuel pump to minimize the risk of
the electric leakage and the fuel leak-
age when a certain level of impact is
detected by the impact sensor. If the
system activates, your vehicle will not
restart. To restart the hybrid system,
contact a Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Check to see if there are exposed
high voltage parts and cables. Nev-
er touch the parts and cables. See
“—High voltage components” on
page 7 in this Section for the loca-
tions of the high voltage parts and
cables.
Inspect the ground under the ve-
hicle. If you find that liquid has
leaked onto the ground, the fuel
system may have been damaged.
Leave the vehicle as soon as pos-
sible.

(a)
This message is to warn the driver that
the parking brake is not completely re-
leased at the vehicle speed of 5 km/h
(3 mph) or more.
Stop the vehicle and release the park-
ing brake fully.
The message appears with the master
warning light and a warning tone sounds.
(b)
This message is to warn the driver that
the engine oil pressure is too low.
Turn the engine off as soon as possible
and contact your Toyota dealer.
The message appears with the master
warning light and a warning tone sounds.(c)
This message is to warn the driver that
the hybrid system is malfunctioning.
If a malfunction of the hybrid system is
detected, the message appears with the
master warning light and warning tone
when the “POWER” switch is on.
If the message appears, stop the ve-
hicle as soon as possible and contact
a Toyota dealer.
(d)
This message is to warn the driver that
the engine coolant temperature is too
high.
Stop the vehicle and allow the engine
to cool. See “If your vehicle overheats”
on page 317 in Section 4.
The message appears with the master
warning light and a warning tone sounds.
NOTICE
Do not continue driving with an over-
heated engine.
(e)
This message is to warn the driver that

Coolant reservoir for engine
Look at the seethrough coolant reser-
voir when the hybrid system is cold.
The coolant level is satisfactory if it is
between the “F” and “L” lines on the
reservoir. If the level is low, add the
coolant. (For the coolant type, see
“Coolant type selection” described be-
low.)
The coolant level in the reservoir will vary
with the hybrid system temperature. How-
ever, if the level is on or below the “L”
line, add coolant. Bring the level up to the
“F” line.
Coolant reservoir for inverter, traction mo-
tor and motor generator
Look at the seethrough coolant reser-
voir when the hybrid system is cold.
The coolant level is satisfactory if it is
between the “FULL” and “LOW” lines
on the reservoir. If the level is low, add
coolant. (For the coolant type, see
“Coolant type selection” described be-
low.)
The coolant level in the reservoir will vary
with the hybrid system temperature. How-
ever, if the level is on or below the “LOW”
line, add coolant. Bring the level up to the
“FULL” line.If the coolant level drops within a short
time after replenishing, there may be a
leak in the system. Visually check the
radiator, hoses, coolant filler cap, radiator
cap and drain cock and water pump.
If you can find no leak, have your Toyota
dealer test the cap pressure and check
for leaks in the cooling system.
CAUTION
To prevent burning yourself, do not
remove the radiator cap when the hy-
brid system is hot.
Coolant type selection
Use of improper coolants may damage
your cooling system.
Only use “Toyota Super Long Life Coolant”
or similar high quality ethylene glycol
based non
−silicate, non −amine, non− nitrite,
and non− borate coolant with long −life
hybrid organic acid technology. (Coolant
with long −life hybrid organic acid
technology is a combination of low
phosphates and organic acids.)
