■ Starting the engine when the battery is discharged (vehicles with a
Multidrive)
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent battery discharge
● Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is stopped.
● Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is run-
ning at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic, etc.
Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine
speed slightly and maintain at that level for approximately 5
minutes to recharge the battery of your vehicle.
Vehicles with smart entry & start system: Open and close
any of the doors with the “ENGINE START STOP” switch
off.
Vehicles without smart entry & start system: Maintain the
engine speed of the second vehicle and turn the engine
switch to the “ON” position, then start the vehicle’s engine.
Vehicles with smart entry & start system: Maintain the
engine speed of the second vehicle and turn the “ENGINE
START STOP” switch to IGNITION ON mode, then start the
vehicle’s engine.
Once the vehicle’s engine has started, remove the jumper
cables in the exact reverse order in which they were con-
nected.

rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional, as soon as possible.

■ Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of cer-
tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may
discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges
automatically during driving.)
■ When recharging or replacing the battery (vehicles with Stop & Start
system)
For a while after the battery terminals has been disconnected and recon-
nected, for a while after the battery has been replaced, the Stop & Start sys-
tem may not automatically stop the engine for approximately 5 to
60 minutes.
■ When exchanging the battery (vehicles with Stop & Start system)
Use a battery specified for use with the Stop & Start system and equivalent
to the genuine battery. If an unsupported battery is used, Stop & Start sys-
tem functions may be restricted to protect the battery.
Also, battery performance may decrease and the engine may not be able to
restart. Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
WARNING
■ Avoiding battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flam-
mable gas that may be emitted from the battery.
● Make sure the jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that it
is not unintentionally in contact with any part other than the intended termi-
nal.
● Do not allow the jumper cables to come into contact with the “+” and “-” ter-
minals.
● Do not allow open flame or use matches, cigarette lighters or smoke near
the battery.
