elapsed, check that the inflation
pressure of each tire is at the speci- fied level and perform initialization. ( P.523)
■The tire pressure warning light may
come on due to natural causes
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such as
natural air leaks and tire inflation pres- sure changes caused by temperature. In this case, adjusting the tire inflation
pressure will turn off the warning light (after a few minutes).
■When a tire is replaced with a com-pact spare tire (vehicles with com-
pact spare tire)
The compact spare tire is not equipped with a 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 has been
replaced with the spare tire. Replace the spare tire with the standard tire and adjust the tire inflation pressure. The tire
pressure warning light will go off after a few minutes.

WARNING
■If a warning light comes on or a
warning buzzer sounds when a warning message is shown on
the multi-information display*
Check and follow the message shown on the multi-information display.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.*: Warning lights illuminate in red or
yellow and the warning buzzer
beeps once or sounds continu-
ously.
■When the electric power steer- ing system warning light comes on
When the light comes on yellow, the assist to the power steering is restricted. When the light comes on
red, the assist to the power steering is lost and handling operations of the steering wheel become extremely
heavy. If the steering wheel becomes heavier than usual when operating, hold firmly
and operate using more force than usual.
■If the tire pressure warning light comes on
Be sure to observe the following pre-
cautions. Failure to do so could cause a loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire inflation pressure immediately.
●If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inflation
pressure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Check the tires. If a tire is flat, change it with
the spare tire and have the flat tire repaired by the nearest authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and
braking. If the vehicle tires deterio- rate, you could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.
■If a blowout or sudden air leak-age should occur
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.

• “Hybrid System Stopped” • “Engine Stopped”
●If “Maintenance required for DCDC converter cooling parts See Owner’s Manual” is shown, the filter may be
clogged, the air intake vent may be blocked, or there may be a gap in the duct. Therefore, perform the following
correction procedure. • If the air intake vent or filter of the DC/DC converter are dirty, perform
the procedures on P.536 to clean them.• If the warning message is shown
when the air intake vent and filter of the DC/DC converter are not dirty, have the vehicle inspected at any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●If “12-Volt Battery Charging System Malfunction Stop in a Safe Place See
Owner’s Manual” is shown
Indicates a malfunction in the vehicle’s
charging system. Pull over and stop the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
While the message is displayed, the
functions of the air conditioning, etc.

reduce the power consumption of the
12-volt battery.
■If “Hybrid System Overheated Out- put Power Reduced” is shown
The message may be shown when driv-
ing under severe operating conditions. (For example, when driving up a long steep hill or driving up a steep hill in
reverse.)
Coping method: P.611
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be Protected Refrain from the Use of N
Position” is shown
This message may be displayed when the shift lever is in N.
As the hybrid battery (traction battery) cannot be charged when the shift lever
is in N, shift the shift lever to P when the
vehicle is stopped.
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be Protected Shift into P to Restart” is shown
This message is displayed when the hybrid battery (traction battery) charge has become extremely low because the
shift lever has been left in N for a certain amount of time.
When operating the vehicle, shift to P
and restart the hybrid system.
■If “Shift to P when Parked” is shown
Message is displayed when the driver’s
door is opened without turning the power switch to OFF with the shift lever in any position other than P.
Shift the shift lever to P.
■If “Shift is in N Release Accelerator Before Shifting” is shown
Message is displayed when the acceler-
ator pedal has been depressed and the shift lever is in N. Release the accelera-tor pedal and shift the shift lever to D or
R.
■If “Press Brake when Vehicle is Stopped Hybrid System may Over-heat” is shown
Message is displayed when the acceler- ator pedal is depressed to maintain the vehicle position when stopped on a
upward slope, etc.
If this continues, the hybrid system may overheat.
Release the accelerator pedal and depress the brake pedal.
■If “Auto Power OFF to Conserve Battery” is shown
Power was turned off due to the auto- matic power off function.
Next time when starting the hybrid sys-
tem, operate the hybrid system for approximately 5 minutes to recharge the 12-volt battery.

13To inject the sealant and inflate
the tire, turn the compressor
switch on.
14 Inflate the tire until the specified
air pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected and
the pressure will spike to
between 300 kPa (3.0 kgf/cm2
or bar, 44 psi) and 400 kPa (4.0
kgf/cm2 or bar, 58 psi), then
gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will be
displayed the actual tire inflation
pressure about 1 to 5 minutes
after the switch is turned on.
Turn the compressor switch off and
then check the tire inflation pressure.
Being careful not to over inflate, check
and repeat the inflation procedure until
the specified tire inflation pressure is
reached.
The tire can be inflated for about 5 to 20
minutes (depending on the outside tem-
perature). If the tire inflation pressure is
still lower than the specified point after
inflation for 25 minutes, the tire is too
damaged to be repaired. Turn the com-
pressor switch off and contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
If the tire inflation pressure exceeds the
specified air pressure, let out some air
to adjust the tire inflation pressure.
( P.590, 624)
15With the compressor switch off,
disconnect the hose from the
valve on the tire and then pull
out the power plug from the
power outlet socket.
Some sealant may leak when the hose is removed.
16 Install the valve cap onto the
valve of the emergency repaired
tire.
17 Attach the air release cap to the
end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not attached, the sealant may leak and the vehicle

4 Press the power switch shortly
and firmly.
In the event that the hybrid system
still cannot be started, contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
■Stopping the hybrid system
Shift the shift lever to P, set the parking
brake and press the power switch as you normally do when stopping the hybrid system.
■Replacing the key battery
As the above procedure is a temporary measure, it is recommended that the electronic key battery be replaced
immediately when the battery is depleted. ( P.543)
■Alarm (if equipped)
Using the mechanical key to lock the
doors will not set the alarm system.
If a door is unlocked using the mechani- cal key when the alarm system is set,
the alarm may be triggered. ( P.78)
■Changing power switch modes
Release the brake pedal and press the power switch in step 3 above.
The hybrid system does not start and modes will be changed each time the switch is pressed. ( P.320)
If you have a set of jumper (or
booster) cables and a second vehi-
cle with a 12-volt battery, you can
jump start your vehicle by following
the steps below.
1 Vehicles with alarm (P.78)
Confirm that the electronic key
is being carried.
When connecting the jumper (or booster) cables, depending on the situ-
ation, the alarm may activate and the doors locked. ( P.79)
2Open the hood (P.498) and
fuse box cover.
If the 12-volt battery is
discharged
The following procedures may
be used to start the hybrid sys-
tem if the vehicle’s 12-volt bat-
tery is discharged.
You can also call any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota

The exclusive jump starting terminal is to be used when charging the 12-
volt battery from another vehicle in an emergency. It cannot be used to jump start another vehicle.
If your vehicle overheats
The following may indicate that
your vehicle is overheating.
The high coolant temperature
warning light ( P.170) comes
on or flashes, or a loss of
hybrid system power is experi-
enced. (For example, the vehi-
cle speed does not increase.)
