For safety and security
shielding, and therefore emit approxi-
mately the same amount of electromag-
netic waves as conventional gasoline
powered vehicles or home electronic
appliances.
●Your vehicle may cause sound interfer-
ence in some third party-produced radio
parts.
■Hybrid battery (traction battery)
The hybrid battery (traction battery) has a
limited service life. The lifespan of the
hybrid battery (traction battery) can
change in accordance with driving style and
driving conditions.
■Starting the hybrid system in an
extremely cold environment
When the hybrid battery (traction battery)
is extremely cold (below approximately -
22°F [-30°C]) under the influence of the
outside temperature, it may not be possible
to start the hybrid system. In this case, try to
start the hybrid system again after the tem-
perature of the hybrid battery increases due
to the outside temperature increase etc.
WARNING
■High voltage precautions
This vehicle has high voltage DC and AC
systems as well as a 12-volt system. DC
and AC high voltage is very dangerous
and can cause severe burns and electric
shock that may result in death or serious
injury.
●Never touch, disassemble, remove or
replace the high voltage parts, cables
or their connectors.
●The hybrid system will become hot
after starting as the system uses high
voltage. Be careful of both the high
voltage and the high temperature, and
always obey the warning labels
attached to the vehicle.
●Never try to open the service plug
access hole located behind the rear
seats. The service pl ug is used only
when the vehicle is serviced and is
subject to high voltage.
■Road accident cautions
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of de ath or serious injury:
●Stop the vehicle in a safe place to pre-
vent subsequent accidents. While
depressing the brake pedal, apply the
parking brake and sh ift the shift posi-
tion to P to stop the hybrid system.
Then, slowly release the brake pedal.
●Do not touch the high voltage parts,
cables and connectors.
●If electric wires ar e exposed inside or
outside your vehicle, an electric shock
may occur. Never touch exposed elec-
tric wires.
●Do not touch the battery if liquid is
leaking from or adhering to it.
If electrolyte (carbonic-based organic
electrolyte) from the hybrid battery
(traction battery) comes into contact
with the eyes or skin, it could cause
blindness or skin wounds. In the
unlikely event that it comes into con-
tact with the eyes or skin, wash it off
immediately with a large amount of
water, and seek immediate medical
attention.

For safety and security
There are air intake vents under the
rear seats for the purpose of cooling
the hybrid battery (traction battery). If
the vents become blocked, the hybrid
battery input and output may be
restricted, leading to a reduction in
hybrid battery (traction battery) out-
put.When a certain level of impact is
detected by the impact sensor, the
emergency shut off system blocks the
high voltage current and stops the fuel
pump to minimize the risk of electrocu-
tion and fuel leakage. If the emergency
shut off system activates, your vehicle
will not restart. To restart the hybrid
system, contact your Lexus dealer.
A message is automatically displayed
when a malfunction occurs in the
hybrid system or an improper opera-
tion is attempted.
If a warning message is shown on the
multi-information display, read the
message and follow the instructions.
NOTICE
■Hybrid battery (traction battery)
Do not carry large amounts of water
such as water cooler bottles in the vehi-
cle. If water spills onto the hybrid battery
(traction battery), the battery may be
damaged. Have the vehicle inspected by
your Lexus dealer.
Hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) air intake vents
NOTICE
■Hybrid battery (traction battery) air
intake vents
●Make sure not to block the air intake
vent with anything, such as a seat
cover, plastic cover, or luggage. If the
vents become blocked, the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) input and output
may be restricted, leading to a reduc-
tion in hybrid battery (traction battery)
output and a malfunction.
●When dust etc. has accumulated in the
air intake vent, periodically clean it
with a vacuum cleaner to prevent the
vent from clogging.
●Filters are installed to the air intake
vent. When the filters remain notice-
ably dirty even after cleaning the air
intake vent, filter cleaning or replace-
ment is recommended. When clean-
ing or replacing the filters, contact
your Lexus dealer.
Refer to P.279 for details on how to
clean the filters.
●Do not get water or foreign materials
in the air intake vent s as this may cause
a short circuit and damage the hybrid
battery (traction battery).
