WARNING
■If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS warning light not
come on when you start the hybrid system, this could mean that these sys-
tems are not available to help protect you in an accident, which could result
in death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional immediately if this occurs.
NOTICE
■ To prevent damage to the engine and its components
The engine may be overheating if the high coolant temperature warning
light comes on or flashes. In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a
safe place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely. ( P. 688)

■Outside temperature display
●In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
• When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 20 km/h [12 mph])
• When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/
exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
●When “-” or “E” is displayed, the system may be malfunctioning.
Take your vehicle to any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
■Electricity consumption
When the unit is set to “km/h”:
Electricity consumption is the consumption rate of the electricity when EV
driving is performed and equivalent to the fuel consumption for the gasoline
vehicles. For this vehicle, electricity consumed per 100 km (“kWh/100 km”) is
displayed as electricity consumption on each screen.
When the unit is set to “MPH” (if equipped):
Electricity consumption is the consumption rate of the electricity when EV
driving is performed and equivalent to the fuel consumption for the gasoline
vehicles. For this vehicle, driven distance per kWh of electricity consumed
(“miles/kWh”) is displayed as electricity consumption on each screen.
■EV driving range
P. 111
■Distance to empty
●This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumption. As a
result, the actual distance that can be driven may differ from that displayed.
●When only a small amount of fuel is added to the tank, the display may not
be updated.
When refueling, turn the power switch off. If the vehicle is refueled without
turning the power switch off, the display may not be updated.

Operation of each component
To take out the mechanical key,
slide the release lever and take
the key out.
The mechanical key can only be
inserted in one direction, as the
key only has grooves on one side.
If the key cannot be inserted in a
lock cylinder, turn it over and re-
attempt to insert it.
After using the mechanical key, store it in the electronic key. Carry the
mechanical key together with the electronic key. If the electronic key bat-
tery is depleted or the entry func tion does not operate properly, you will
need the mechanical key. ( P. 678)
■If you lose your mechanical keys
New genuine mechanical keys can be made by any authorized Toyota dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualif ied and equipped professional using another
mechanical key and the key number stamped on your key number plate.
Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
■ When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not press
any buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are
carrying an electronic key in your bag etc., ensure that the buttons are not
likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the electronic
key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.

●The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
●If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin and a message
will be displayed on the multi-information display when the hybrid system
stops.
●As the electronic key always receives radio waves, the battery will become
depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms indi-
cate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery
when necessary. (P. 616)
• The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not
operate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by yourself (P. 616). However, as there is a
danger that the electronic key may be damaged, it is recommended that
replacement is carried out by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 1 m
(3 ft.) of the following electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Table lamps
• Induction cookers

NOTICE
■To prevent key damage
● Do not drop the keys, subject them to strong shocks or bend them.
● Do not expose the keys to high temperatures for long periods of time.
● Do not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer etc.
● Do not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the keys
close to such materials.
● Do not disassemble the keys.
● Do not attach a sticker or anything else to the surface of the electronic key.
● Do not place the keys near objects that produce magnetic fields, such as

cantly. Visit any authorized Toyota deal er or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional immediately with all remaining electronic
keys that were provided with your vehicle.
