Installation of an RF-transmitter system
As the installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect
electronic systems such as the multi-port fuel injection system/sequential
multi-port fuel injection system, cruise control system, anti-lock brake sys-
tem, SRS airbag system or seat belt pretensioner system, be sure to check
with any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional for precautionary measures or special instructions
regarding installation.
Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, antenna posi-
tions and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is
available on request at any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles emit approximately the
same amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline pow-
ered vehicles or home electronic appliances despite of their electromagnetic
shielding.
Scrapping your Toyota
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional, before you scrap your vehicle.

High voltage components
Take care when handling the hybrid system, as it contains a high volt-
age system (about 650 V at maximum) as well as parts that become
extremely hot when the hybrid system is operating. Obey the caution
labels attached to the vehicle.Air conditioning compressor

If a warning light comes on or a warning message is displayed, or the
12-volt battery is disconnected
The hybrid system may not start. In that case, try to start the system again. If
the “READY” indicator does not come on, contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Electromagnetic waves
High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles incorporate electro-
magnetic shielding, and therefore emit approximately the same amount
of electromagnetic waves as conventional gasoline powered vehicles or
home electronic appliances.
Your vehicle may cause sound interference in some third party-produced
radio parts.
Consult any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional before installing or removing third party-
produced radio parts.
Running out of fuel
When the vehicle has run out of fuel and the hybrid system cannot be
started, refuel the vehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel
level warning light go off (P. 433). If there is only a small amount of fuel,
the hybrid system may not be able to start. (The minimum amount of fuel to
add to make the low fuel level warning light go out is about 12 L [3.2 gal., 2.7
Imp. gal.], when the vehicle is on a level surface. This value may vary when
the vehicle is on a slope.)
Hybrid battery (traction battery)
The hybrid battery (traction battery) has a limited service life. The lifespan of
the hybrid battery (traction battery) can change in accordance with driving
style and driving conditions.

Before driving

CAUTION
High voltage precautions
The vehicle has high voltage DC and AC systems as well as a 12-volt sys-
tem. DC and AC high voltage is very dangerous and can cause severe burns
and electric shock that may result in death or serious injury.
Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace the high voltage parts,
cables and their connectors.
The hybrid system will become hot after starting as the system uses high
voltage. Be careful of both the high voltage and the high temperature, and
always obey the caution labels attached to the vehicle.
Hybrid battery (traction battery)
Your vehicle contains a sealed nickel-metal hydride battery. If disposed of
improperly, it is hazardous to the environment and there is a risk of severe
burns and electrical shock that may result in death or serious injury.
Never try to open the service plug
access hole located in the luggage
compartment. The service plug is used
only when the vehicle is serviced and is
subject to high voltage.
Do not subject the service plug to
strong impacts. Also, avoid splashing
large amount of water onto the luggage
compartment, for example while in a
high-pressure car wash.

176 2-1. Driving procedures
UK_AURIS_HV_EE
Automatic P position selection function
When the shift position is other than P, pressing the “POWER” switch
with the vehicle stopped completely will cause the shift position to
change to P automatically, and then the “POWER” switch will turn off.
When turning the “POWER” switch off from a position other than P, firmly
depress the brake pedal and confirm that the shift position* has changed
to P before slowly releasing the brake pedal.
*: Even after the instrument panel display has been turned off, the shift
position indicator will continue to be displayed for several seconds.
If the P position control system malfunctions, the “POWER” switch will
not be able to be turned off. In such a case, the switch can be turned off
by applying the parking brake.
When the system malfunctions, immediately have your vehicle serviced
by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional immediately.
When the ambient temperature is low, such as during winter driving
conditions
It may take time until the “READY” indicator comes on.

Winter driving tips
Carry out the necessary preparations and inspections before driving
the vehicle in winter. Always drive the vehicle in a manner appropri-
ate to the prevailing weather conditions.
Pre-winter preparations
Use fluids that are appropriate to the prevailing outside tem-
peratures.
• Engine oil
• Engine/power control unit coolant
• Washer fluid
Have a service technician inspect the level and specific grav-
ity of 12-volt battery electrolyte.
Ensure that all tires are the same size and brand, and that chains
match the size of the tires.
Before driving the vehicle
Perform the following according to the driving conditions.
Do not try to forcibly open a window, scrape an outside rear
view mirror surface or move a wiper or outside rear view mir-
ror that is frozen. Pour warm water over the frozen area to
melt the ice. Wipe away the water immediately to prevent it
from freezing.
To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents
in front of the windshield.
Remove any ice that has accumulated on the vehicle chassis.
Periodically check for and remove any excess ice or snow
that may have accumulated in the wheel well or on the
brakes.
