1605-1. Before driving
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62023U■
Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 200 miles (300 km):
Avoid sudden stops.
● For the first 1000 miles (1600 km):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods.
■ Drum-in-disc type parking brake system
Your vehicle has a drum-in-disc type par king brake system. This type of brake
system needs bedding-down of the brake shoes periodically or whenever the
parking brake shoes and/or drum are replaced. Have your Toyota dealer per-
form the bedding down operation.
■ Operating your vehicle in a foreign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle registration laws and confirm the availability
of the correct fuel. ( →P. 418)

1985-4. Refueling
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62023U
Opening the fuel door
●Close the all the doors and windows.
● Set the parking brake.
● Shift the shift position to P.
● Turn the power switch off.
● Turn off the headlights.
■Fuel Type
Compressed hydrogen gas
■ Notes on fueling
●Fueling will not be possible if the pressure inside the vehicle’s hydrogen tanks
is higher than the supply pressure of the hydrogen station. If the hydrogen
tanks are more than half full, the vehicle will be unable to fuel at a H35 dis-
penser.
A hydrogen station with a H70 dispenser (supply pressure of 10150 psi
[70 MPa, 714 kgf/cm
2, 700 bar] is necessary to completely fill hydrogen tanks.
● If the fueling cannot be completed due to trouble with the station equipment,
call the number indicated on the equipment.
● Fuel with compressed hydrogen ga s only at hydrogen stations.
● Fuel at hydrogen stations confor ming with the Society of Automo-
tive Engineers (SAE) J2601 fueling protocol or laws that may
supersede such SAE protocols.
● Refer to the Mirai Station Finder Application in Entune,
www.toyota.com
, or call 800-331-4331.
● Observe any notices or instructio ns shown at hydrogen stations.
● The filling time and amount of fuel may depend on outside tem-
perature and the equipment at that hydrogen station.
●
Vehicles with expired hydro gen tanks must not be used. (→P. 86)
Consult your Toyota dealer.

3968-2. Steps to take in an emergency
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62023U
If the fuel cell system will not start
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
●The electronic key may not be functioning properly. ( →P. 398)
● There may not be sufficient fuel in the vehicle’s tank.
Refuel the vehicle.
● The fuel door may be open. ( →P. 201)
● There may be a malfunction in the immobilizer system.
( → P. 72)
● There may be a malfunction in the shift control system.
* (→ P. 378)
● The fuel cell system may be malf unctioning due to an electrical
problem such as electronic key ba ttery depletion or a blown fuse.
However, depending on the type of malfunction, an interim mea-
sure is available to start the fuel cell system. ( →P. 177, 397)
● The electronic key may be in battery-saving mode. ( →P. 133)
*: It may not be possible to shift the shift position from P to another position.
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
● The 12-volt battery may be discharged. ( →P. 401)
● The 12-volt battery terminal connections may be loose or corroded.
(→ P. 328)
Reasons for the fuel cell system not starting vary depending on
the situation. Check the follo wing and perform the appropriate
procedure:
The fuel cell system will not start even though the correct start-
ing procedure is being followed. ( →P. 172)
The interior lights and headlights are dim, or the horn does not
sound or sounds at a low volume.

4048-2. Steps to take in an emergency
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62023U■
When exchanging the 12-volt battery
Use a Central Degassing type 12-volt battery (Japanese Industrial Stan-
dards). Also, use 12-volt batteries with case sizes similar to one prior the
exchange and an equivalent 20 hour rate capacity (20HR) or greater.
• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt battery cannot be properly secured.
• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low, even if the time period where the vehicle
is not used is a short time, the 12-volt battery may discharge and fuel cell
system may not be able to start.
For details, consult your Toyota dealer.
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 any other than the intended terminal.
● 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.
■ 12-volt battery precautions
The 12-volt battery contains poisonous and corrosive acidic electrolyte,
while related parts contain lead and lead compounds. Observe the following
precautions when handling the 12-volt battery:
● When working with the 12-volt battery, always wear safety glasses and
take care not to allow any 12-volt battery fluids (acid) to come into contact
with skin, clothing or the vehicle body.
● Do not lean over the 12-volt battery.
● In the event that 12-volt battery fluid comes into contact with the skin or
eyes, immediately wash the affected area with water and seek medical
attention.
Place a wet sponge or cloth over the affected area until medical attention
can be received.
● Always wash your hands after handling the 12-volt battery support, termi-
nals, and other battery-related parts.
● Do not allow children near the 12-volt battery.

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

NOTICE
Correction procedures
The fuel cell stack coolant is exclusive for
fuel cell stack usage. Damage may occur
when water or any other type of coolant
is used, so never use any other fluid.
If the fuel cell stack coolant is low, imme-
diately contact your Toyota dealer.
