If the hybrid system will not star t
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: The electronic key may
not be functioning properly. (P. 414)
There may not be sufficient fuel in the vehicle’s tank.
Refuel the vehicle. (P. 206)
There may be a malfunction in the immobilizer system. (P. 8 2 )
There may be a malfunction in the steering lock system.
The hybrid system may be malfunctioning due to an electrical prob-
lem such as electronic key battery depletion or a blown fuse. How-
ever, depending on the type of malfunction, an interim measure is
available to start the hybrid system. (P. 411)
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
The 12-volt battery may be discharged. (P. 415)
The 12-volt battery terminal connections may be loose or corroded.
(P. 310)
Reasons for the hybrid system not starting vary depending on
the situation. Check the following and perform the appropriate
procedure:
The hybrid system will not start even though the correct starting
procedure is being followed. (P. 176, 180)

Set the parking brake.
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system:
Turn the power switch to the “ACC” position.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system:
Turn the power switch to ACCESSORY mode.
Depress the brake pedal.
Pry the cover up with a flathead

wrap the tip of the screwdriver with
a rag.
Press the shift lock override
button.
The shift lever can be shifted while
the button is pressed.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot on the brake
pedal, there may be a problem with the shift lock system (a sys-
tem to prevent accidental operation of the shift lever). Have the
vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional immediately.
The following steps may be used as an emergency measure to
ensure that the shift lever can be shifted:

Connect the jumper cables according to the following procedure.
Connect a positive jumper cable clamp to the exclusive jump start-
ing terminal on your vehicle.
Connect the clamp on the other end of the positive cable to the pos-
itive (+) battery terminal on the second vehicle.
Connect a negative cable clamp to the negative (-) battery terminal
on the second vehicle.
Connect the clamp at the other end of the negative cable to a solid,
stationary, unpainted metallic point away from the exclusive jump
starting terminal and any moving parts as shown in the illustration.
Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine speed
slightly and maintain it at that level for approximately 5 minutes to
recharge the 12-volt battery of your vehicle.
Open and close any of the doors of your vehicle with the power
switch is in the “LOCK” position (vehicles without a smart entry &

Precautions when the 12-volt battery is discharged
In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using entry func-
tion of the smart entry & start system immediately after the 12-volt battery
has been disconnected and reconnected. Use the wireless remote control
or the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
The hybrid system may not start on the first attempt after the 12-volt battery
has recharged but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a
malfunction.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: The power switch mode is mem-
orized by the vehicle. When the 12-volt battery is reconnected, the system
will return to the mode it was in before the 12-volt battery was discharged.
Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery, turn the power switch off. If the
power switch was in ACCESSORY or ON mode before the 12-volt battery
was discharged, the audio system and/or air conditioning system may oper-
ate when the 12-volt battery is reconnected.
WARNING
Avoiding 12-volt battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flam-
mable gas that may be emitted from the 12-volt battery:
Make sure each jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that
it is not unintentionally in contact with anything other than the intended ter-
minal.
Do not allow the other end of the jumper cable connected to the “+” termi-
nal to come into contact with any other parts or metal surfaces in the area,
such as brackets or unpainted metal.
Do not allow the + and - clamps of the jumper cables to come into contact
with each other.
Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette lighters or allow open flame near
the 12-volt battery.
After recharging the 12-volt battery
Have the 12-volt battery inspected at any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional as soon as
possible. If the 12-volt battery is deteriorating, continued use may cause the
12-volt battery to emit a malodorous gas, which may be detrimental to the
health of passengers.
