Depress the brake pedal. Touch the Toyota emblem side of
the electronic key to the
“POWER” switch.

tronic key.
Press the “POWER” switch within 10 seconds of the buzzer
sounding, keeping the brake pedal depressed.
In the event that the hybrid system still cannot be operated, contact
your Toyota dealer.

STEP 2
■ Stopping the hybrid system
Set the parking brake, shift the shift position to P 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. 460)
■ Changing “POWER” switch modes
Within 10 seconds of the buzzer sounding, release the brake pedal and
press the “POWER” switch.
The hybrid system does not start and modes will be changed each time the
switch is pressed. ( P. 196)
