PRIUS +_OM_OM47D30E_(EE)The installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect elec-
tronic systems such as:
●Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
●Toyota Safety Sense
●Cruise control system
●Anti-lock brake system
●SRS airbag system
●Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer for precautionary measures or special
instructions regarding installation of an RF-transmitter system.
Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, antenna posi-
tions and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is avail-
able on request at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles emit approximately the
same amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline pow-
ered vehicles or home electronic appliances despite of their electromagnetic
shielding.
Unwanted noise may occur in the reception of the radio frequency transmitter
(RF-transmitter).

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 retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer imme- 
diately if this occurs.
