Starting the engine when the battery is discharged (vehicles with a
Multidrive)
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
Avoiding a discharged battery
Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is turned
off.
Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is run-
ning at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic, etc.
When the vehicle battery is removed or discharged
Any data stored in the computer will be erased. When the vehicle battery
is discharged, have the vehicle checked at any authorized Toyota dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Vehicles with alarm: Make sure that the key is not inside the vehicle
when recharging or replacing the battery. The key may be locked in the
vehicle if the alarm is activated. (P. 120)
Reminders when the vehicle battery is discharged (vehicles with smart
entry & start system)
When the doors are attempted to be unlocked via the smart entry & start
system just after the vehicle battery has been discharged, it may fail. If
the doors cannot be unlocked, unlock the doors using a wireless remote
controller or a mechanical key.
The first engine start after the battery has been discharged may fail.
However, the engine should start after the second attempt, so it is not a
malfunction.
Once the engine starts, have the vehicle checked at any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional, as soon as possible.
