38 1-1. Hybrid system
UK_AURIS_HV_EE
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.

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.
