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. 122)
● Check that the charging inlet, charging cable, plug and outlet are free of
foreign matter.
● Only use outlets where the plug can be securely inserted.
● Do not charge if the charging cable is coiled or bundled.
● Wrapping 120 V 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 weatherproof outlet
for outdoor use.
● Do not insert the plug if the outlet 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 outlet 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 outlet.
● Do not use an extension cord and converting adaptor.

■Timer settings
A maximum of 15 charge schedules can be registered.
■ To make sure that the charging timer function operates correctly
Check the following items.
●Adjust the clock to the correct time ( →P. 185)
● Check that the power switch is turned off
● After registering the charge schedule, connect the charging cable
The charging start time is determined based on the charge schedule at the
time that the charging cable was connected.
● After connecting the charging cable, check that the charging indicator
flashes ( →P. 106)
● Do not use an outlet that has a power cut off function (including a timer func-
tion)
Use an outlet that constantly supplies electricity. For outlets where the
power is cut off due to a timer function, etc., charging may not be carried
out according to plan if the power is cut off during the set time.
■ When the charging cable rema ins connected to the vehicle
Even if multiple consecutive charge schedules are registered, the next
charge will not be carried out according to the timer until the charging cable is
removed and reconnected after charging completes. Also, when the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is fully charged, charging according to the timer will
not be carried out.
■ “Climate Prep”
●When the air conditioning-linked setting is turned on, the air conditioning
operates until the set departure time. T herefore, the air conditioning will con-
sume electricity and charging may not complete by the set departure time.
● If the hybrid battery (traction battery) is fully charged, charging will not be
carried out, even if the charge schedule is set. However, if “Climate Prep” is
turned on, the air conditioning will operate only once when it nears the time
set in “Departure”. If this occurs, the air conditioning will consume electricity
and the remaining charge of the hybrid battery (traction battery) when
departing may be decreased.
■ Smartphone-linked op eration (vehicles with 11.6-inch display)
After applying to Entune, it is possible to use the smartphone application to
change charging timer settings.
For details about Entune, refer to http://www.toyota.com/entune/.
