If the error warning indicator on the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting
Device) flashes during charging, check P. 121 and follow the correction
procedure.
The charging indicator will turn off when charging is completed.
■During charging
●The surface of the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) may become
hot, but this does not indicate a malfunction. (When using Mode 2 charging
cable.)
●Depending on radio wave conditions, interference may be heard on the
radio.
●The current charging condition and the estimated time until charging will
complete can be checked on the multi-information display. (P. 146)
●During charging, the hybrid battery (traction battery) status indicator illumi-
nates and flashes, and changes according to the charging amount.
(P. 115)
■If the charging indicator flashes after connecting the charging cable
The charge schedule (P. 163) is registered and charging cannot be per-
formed immediately. To cancel charging using the timer and start charging
immediately, perform any of the following procedures.
●Turn “Charge Now” on (P. 171)
●While the charging indicator is flashing, remove and reconnect the charging
connector within 5 seconds

WARNING
■When charging
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause an unexpected accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
● Connect to a power source suitable for charging. (P. 136)
● Check that the charging inlet, charging cable, plug and socket are free of
foreign matter.
● Only use sockets where the plug can be securely inserted.
● Do not charge if the charging cable is coiled or bundled.
● Wrapping the charging cable while in-use is not recommended because
cable may overheat. Failure to rewrap charging cable when not in-use
could result in strangulation or tripping hazard.
● Do not wash the vehicle while the charging cable is connected to the vehi-
cle and when the charging lid is open.
● Do not touch the terminals of the charging connector and charging inlet
with a sharp metal objects (needles etc.) or hands, or short them with for-
eign objects.
● When charging outdoors, make sure to connect to a rain-tight socket for
outdoor use.
● Do not insert the plug if the socket is submerged in water or snow.
● Follow these points when charging while it is raining or snowing.
• Check that no snow, water or ice has accumulated around the charging
connector terminals and the vehicle charging inlet. Tap snow, water or
ice gently from connector prior to inserting charging connector into the
vehicle’s charging inlet.
• Do not connect the plug if your hands are wet. Also, do not get the plug
or socket wet.
● Do not charge the vehicle during a lightning storm.
● Do not let the wheels on the charging cable, plug, charging connector and
CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device).
● Firmly insert the plug into the socket.
● Do not use an extension cord and converting adaptor.

WARNING
■If the error warning indicator on the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupt-
ing Device) illuminates or flashes during charging
There may be an electrical leakage in t he power source path, or there may
be a malfunction in the charging cable or CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupt-
ing Device). Refer to P. 121 and follow the correction procedure. If the error
warning indicator does not turn off even after performing the correction pro-
cedure, immediately stop charging, remove the charging cable and contact
any authorized Toyota dealer or r epairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional. Continuing to charge the vehicle in that condition
may lead to unforeseen accidents or serious injury.
■ After charging
Remove the plug if it will not be used for a long time.
Dirt and dust may accumulate plug or socket, which could cause a malfunc-
tion or fire, possibly leading to death or serious injury.
■ Charging equipment
There is charging equipment under the r ear seats. Make sure to observe
the following precautions regarding the charging equipment. Failure to
observe these precautions may result in death or serious injury such as
burns and electric shocks.
● The charging equipment is hot during charging. Do not touch the charging
equipment, as doing so may result in burns.
● Do not disassemble, repair or modify the charging equipment.
When the charging equipment needs to be repaired, consult any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.

NOTICE
■Using private power generator
Do not use private power generators as a power source for charging.
Doing so may make charging unstable, the voltage may be insufficient, and
the error warning indicator on the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting
Device) of the charging cable may flash.
■ Usable temperature range
● Do not charge if the outside temperature is -30C (-22F) or below, as it is
likely that charging will take longer , and equipment related to charging will
be damaged.
● Do not leave the vehicle or the charging cable in areas where the outside
temperature is lower than -40 C (-40F). The vehicle or charging cable will
probably be damaged.
■ Charging equipment
Due to the environment in which the power equipment is located, charging
may be unstable due to noise, the voltage may be insufficient, and the error
warning indicator on the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) of the
charging cable may flash.

■ When “Next Charging Event” is changed while charging
● When the charging mode is “Departure”, the current charging is interrupted
or continued depending on the remaining time until the charging is com-
pleted.
● When the charging mode is “Start”, the current charging is interrupted, the
next charging will start at the set time.
■ When the power switch is turned off
It is possible to check the next charge
schedule (“Next Charging Event”) by oper-
ating or of the meter control
switches while the power switch is turned
off and the “Ending” screen*1 ( P. 194) is

WARNING
■ Cautions while performing the setting operation
When performing the setting operation while the hybrid system is operated,
ensure that the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a
closed area such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon
monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or
a serious health hazard.
NOTICE
■ While performing the setting operation
When performing the setting operation while the hybrid system is stopped,
be careful that the 12-volt battery will not be discharged.
