2011 TOYOTA VERSO S warning

6108-2. Steps to take in an emergency
WARNING
■Avoiding 12-volt battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flam-mable gas that may be emitted from
the 12-volt battery:
●Make sure each jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal
and that it is not unintentionally in contact with any other than the intended terminal.
●Do not allow the other end of the jumper cable connected to the “+”
terminal to come into contact with any other parts or metal surfaces in the area, such as brackets or
unpainted metal.
●Do not allow the + and - clamps of
the jumper cables to come into con- tact with each other.
●Do not smoke, use matches, ciga-rette lighters or allow open flame near the 12-volt battery.
■12-volt battery precautions
The 12-volt battery contains poison-
ous and corrosive acidic electrolyte, while related parts contain lead and lead compounds. Observe the follow-
ing precautions when handling the 12-volt battery:
●When working with the 12-volt bat-
tery, always wear safety glasses and take care not to allow any bat-tery fluids (acid) to come into con-
tact with skin, clothing or the vehicle body.
●Do not lean over the 12-volt battery.
●In the event that battery fluid comes
into contact with the skin or eyes, immediately wash the affected area with water and seek medical atten-
tion. Place a wet sponge or cloth over the affected area until medical
attention can be received.
●Always wash your hands after han- dling the 12-volt battery support, terminals, and other battery-related
parts.
●Do not allow children near the 12-
volt battery.
■After recharging the 12-volt bat-
tery
Have the 12-volt battery inspected at any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.If the 12-volt battery is deteriorating,
continued use may cause the 12-volt battery to emit a malodorous gas, which may be detrimental to the
health of passengers.
■When replacing the 12-volt bat-
tery
●For information regarding 12-volt battery replacement, contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●After replacing, securely attach the exhaust hose and exhaust hole
plug to the exhaust hole of the replaced 12-volt battery. If not prop-erly installed, gases (hydrogen)
may leak into the vehicle interior, and there is the possible danger of the gas igniting and exploding.

When trouble arises
■If the high coolant temperature
warning light comes on,
flashes or “Engine Coolant
Temp High Stop in a Safe
Place See Owner’s Manual” is
shown on the multi-informa-
tion display
1 Stop the vehicle in a safe place
and turn off the air conditioning

Carefully lift the hood after the
steam subsides.
If you do not see steam:
Carefully lift the hood.
NOTICE
■When handling jumper cables
When connecting the jumper cables,
ensure that they do not become entangled in the cooling fan, etc.
■To prevent damaging the vehicle
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.)
 “Engine Coolant Temp High
Stop in a Safe Place See
Owner’s Manual” or “Hybrid
System Overheated Output
Power Reduced” is shown on
the multi-information display.

Correction procedures

6148-2. Steps to take in an emergency
mation display.
If the message does not disap-
pear: Stop the hybrid system
and contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
If the message is not displayed: The hybrid system temperature has dropped and the vehicle may be driven
normally. However, if the message appears again frequently, contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNING
■When inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from under
the hood, do not open the hood until the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very
hot.
●After the hybrid system has been
turned off, check that the “READY” indicator is off.When the hybrid system is operat-
ing, the gasoline engine may auto- matically start, or the cooling fan may suddenly operate even if the
gasoline engine stops. Do not touch or approach rotating parts such as the fan, which may lead to fingers
or clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) getting caught, result-ing in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reservoir cap while the hybrid system and
radiator are hot. High temperature steam or coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power con-trol unit coolant
Add coolant slowly after the hybrid system has cooled down sufficiently. Adding cool coolant to a hot hybrid
system too quickly can cause dam- age to the hybrid system.
■To prevent damage to the cool-ing system
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or dust, etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.

from around the stuck tire.
3 Place wood, stones or some
other material to help provide
traction under the tires.
4 Restart the hybrid system.
5 Shift the shift lever to D or R and

Recovering procedure
WARNING
■When attempting to free a stuck vehicle
If you choose to push the vehicle back and forth to free it, make sure the surrounding area is clear to avoid
striking other vehicles, objects or peo- ple. The vehicle may also lunge for-ward or lunge back suddenly as it
becomes free. Use extreme caution.
■When shifting the shift lever
Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed.
This may lead to unexpected rapid
acceleration of the vehicle that may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■To avoid damaging the transmis-sion and other components
●Avoid spinning the wheels and depressing the accelerator pedal more than necessary.
●If the vehicle remains stuck even
after these procedures are per- formed, the vehicle may require towing to be freed.

WARNING
■During customization
As the hybrid system needs to be operating during customization,
ensure that the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such as a garage,
exhaust gases including harmful car- bon monoxide (CO) may collect and
enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.
