Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional as soon as possible.
Starting the engine when the 12-volt battery is discharged
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is off.
Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
When the 12-volt battery is removed or discharged (vehicles with an
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. 105)
Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery will discharge gradually even when
the vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of
certain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the 12-volt
battery may discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The 12-volt
battery recharges automatically during driving.)
