CAUTION
■General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ-
ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi-
cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and
reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in
death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other
drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that dis-
tracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regarding children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to
have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with
the windows, the moon roof, or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat
build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to
children.
■ Traction battery
Never resell, hand over or modify the traction battery. To prevent accidents,
traction batteries that have been removed from a disposed vehicle are col-
lected through Toyota dealers. Do not dispose of the battery yourself.
Unless the battery is properly collected, the following may occur, resulting in
death or serious injury:
●The traction battery may be illegally disposed of or dumped, and someone
may touch a high voltage part, resulting in an electric shock.
● The traction battery is intended to be used exclusively with your EV. If the
traction battery is used outside of your vehicle or modified in any way, acci-
dents such as electric shock, heat generation, smoke generation, an
explosion and electrolyte leakage may occur.
If the traction battery is resold or handed over to a third party, the possibility
of an accident is extremely high bec ause the person receiving the traction
battery may not be aware of these dangers.
