To inject the sealant and inflate
the tire, turn the compressor
switch on.
Inflate the tire until the specified
air pressure is reached.The sealant will be injected
and the pressure will surge,
and then gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will
display the actual tire infla-
tion pressure about 1 minute
(15 minutes at low tempera-
ture) after the switch is
turned on.
Inject to specified air pres-
sure.• Turn the compressor
switch off and then check
the tire inflation pressure.
Being careful not to over
inflate, check and repeat
the inflation procedure
until the specified tire infla-
tion pressure is reached.
• If the tire inflation pressure is still lower than the specified point
after inflation for 35 minutes with the switch on, the tire is too
damaged to be repaired. Turn the compressor switch off and
contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
• If the tire inflation pressure exceeds the specified air pressure, let out some air to adjust the tire inflation pressure.

■If the high coolant temperature warning light comes on or
flashesStop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the air conditioning
system, and then stop the hybrid system.
If you see steam:
Carefully lift the hood after the steam subsides.
If you do not see steam:
Carefully lift the hood.
After the hybrid system has cooled down sufficiently, inspect the
hoses and radiator core (radiator) for any leaks.

If a large amount of coolant
leaks, immediately contact
any authorized Toyota dealer
or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
The following may indicate that your vehicle is overheating.● The high coolant temperature warning light ( →P. 380) comes on
or flashes, or a loss of hybrid system power is experienced. (For
example, the vehicle speed does not increase.)
● Vehicles without multi-information display: The hybrid system
overheat warning light ( →P. 380) comes on.
● Vehicles with multi-information display: The warning message
indicating overheat is shown on the multi-information display.
(→ P. 391)
● Steam comes out from under the hood.

When trouble arises
After stopping the hybrid system and waiting for 5 minutes or
more, start the hybrid system and check for the instrument clus-
ter or multi-information display.
If the hybrid system overheat warning light does not turn off or
the message does not disappear:
Stop the hybrid system and contact any authorized Toyota dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
If the hybrid system overheat warning light does not come on or
the message is not displayed:
The hybrid system temperature has dropped and the vehicle may
be driven normally.
However, if the warning light comes on again frequently or the message
appears again frequently, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
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 indicator on the
power switch and the “READY” indicator are off.
When the hybrid system is operating, the gasoline engine may automati-
cally 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, resulting in serious injury.
● Do not loosen the coolant reservoir cap while the hybrid system and radia-
tor are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant could spray out.

Vehicle specifications
Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example):• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic of the oil which
allows cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow
for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.
• The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the oil when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity
(one with a higher value) may be better suited if the vehicle is
operated at high speeds, or under extreme load conditions.
How to read oil container labels:
Either or both API registered marks are added to some oil contain-
ers to help you select the oil you should use.
API Service Symbol
Top portion: “API SERVICE SN”
means the oil quality designa-
tion by American Petroleum
Institute (API).
Center portion: “SAE 0W-20”
means the SAE viscosity grade.
Lower portion: “Resource-
Conserving” means that the oil
has fuel-saving and environ-
mental protection capabilities.
ILSAC Certification Mark
The International Lubricant Specification Advisory Committee (ILSAC)
Certification Mark is displayed on the front of the container.
