When trouble arises

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■
When a tires is replaced with a spare tire
The compact spare tire is not equipped with the tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter. If a tire goes flat, the tire pressure warning light will not turn
off even though the flat tire is replaced with the spare tire. Replace the spare
tire with the repaired tire and adjust the proper tire inflation pressure.
The tire pressure warning light will turn off after a few minutes.
■ If the tire pressure warning system is inoperative
The tire pressure warning system may become inoperative in the following
conditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
●If tires not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
are used.
● If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters is not
registered in the tire pressure warning computer.
● If electronic devices or facilities using similar radio wave frequencies are
nearby.
● If a radio set at similar frequencies is in use in the vehicle.
● If there is a lot of snow or ice on the vehicle, in particular around the
wheels or wheel housings.
● If non-genuine Toyota wheels are used. (Even if you use Toyota wheels,
the tire pressure warning system may not work properly with some types
of tires.)
● If tire chains are used.
● If the tire inflation pressure is 73 psi (500 kPa, 5.1 kgf/cm
2 or bar) or
higher
■ If the tire pressure warning light comes on after blinking frequently for
1 minute
If the tire pressure warning light comes on after blinking frequently for 1
minute when the “POWER” switch is turned to ON mode, have it checked by
your Toyota dealer.

If your vehicle overheats
Correction procedures■ If “WATER TEMP” is shown on the multi-information display
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the air condition-
ing system.
Check to see if steam is coming out from under the hood.
If you see steam: Stop the hybrid system and carefully lift the hood.
If you do not see steam: Leave the hybrid system operating and carefully lift the
hood.
Check to see if the cooling fan is operating.
If the fans are operating: Wait until the temperature of the engine (shown on the
instrument cluster) begins to fall and then stop the hybrid
system.
If the fans are not operating: Stop the hybrid system immediately and call your Toyota
dealer.
The following may indicate that your vehicle is overheating:
●“WATER TEMP” is shown on th e multi-information display:
The engine may be overheating.
● “HYBRID SYSTEM OVER HEAT” is shown on the multi-informa-
tion display:
The power control unit may be overheating.
Follow the correction procedure as described below.

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
After the hybrid system has
cooled down sufficiently, check
the engine coolant level and
inspect the radiator core (radia-
tor) for any leaks.
Add engine coolant if necessary.
Water can be used in an emer-
gency if engine coolant is unavail-
able.
(
P. 401)
■ If “HYBRID SYSTEM OVER HEAT” is shown on the multi-infor-
mation display
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the air condition-
ing system.
Leave the hybrid system operating and carefully lift the hood.
Check if the cooling fans are operating.
If the fans are operating: Wait until “HYBRID SYSTEM OVER HEAT” disappears and
then stop the hybrid system.
If the message does not disappe ar, call your Toyota dealer.
If the fans are not operating: Stop the hybrid system immediately and call your local
Toyota dealer.

Vehicle specifications
Warning: The temperature grades of a tire assume that it is properly
inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately
or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.
