■ To prevent damage or fire
Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.

5027-2. Steps to take in an emergency
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
● The electronic key may not be functioning properly. (P. 505)
● There may not be sufficient f uel in the vehicle’s tank.
Refuel the vehicle.
● There may be a mal function in the immobilizer system.
( P. 90)
● There may be a malfunction i n the steering lock system.
● The hybrid system may be malfunc tioning due to an electrical prob-
lem such as electronic key battery depletion or a blown fuse. H ow-
ever, depending on the type of malfunction, an interim measure is
available to start the hybrid system. ( P. 503)
● AXVH70 model
* only: The temperature of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) may be extremely low ( below approximately -22°F [-30°C]).
( P. 85, 211)
*:The model code is indicated on the Certification Label. ( P. 523)
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
● The 12-volt battery may be discharged. ( P. 507)
● The 12-volt battery terminal conn ections may be loose or corroded.
( P. 418)
If the hybrid system will not start
Reasons for the hybrid system not starting vary depending on
the situation. Check the followi ng and perform the appropriate
procedure:
The hybrid system will not start even though the correct starting

When trouble arises
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
● The 12-volt battery may be discharged. ( P. 507)
● One or both of the 12-volt battery terminals may be disconnecte d.
( P. 418)
Contact your Toyota dealer if the problem cannot be repaired, o r if repair
procedures are unknown.
When the hybrid system does not start, the following steps can be
used as an interim measure to sta rt the hybrid system if the power

5107-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■Starting the hybrid system when the 12-volt battery is discharg ed
The hybrid system cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the hybrid s ystem is off.
● Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic .
■ When the 12-volt battery is removed or discharged
● Information stored in the ECU is cleared. When the 12-volt batt ery is
depleted, have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
● Some systems may require initialization. ( P. 555)
■ When removing the 12-vo lt battery terminals
When the 12-volt battery terminals are removed, the information stored in the
ECU is cleared. Before removing the 12-volt battery terminals, contact your
Toyota dealer.
■ Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery will discharge gr adually even when
the vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the dra ining effects of
certain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a lon g time, the 12-volt
battery may discharge, and the hybrid system may be unable to start. (The
12-volt battery recharges automatically while the hybrid system is operating.)
■ When recharging or replacing the 12-volt battery
●In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart
key system when the 12-volt battery is discharged. Use the wire less remote
control or the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
● The hybrid system may not start on the first attempt after the 12-volt battery
has recharged but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a
malfunction.
● The power switch mode is memorized by the vehicle. When the 12- volt bat-
tery is reconnected, the system will return to the mode it was in before the
12-volt battery was discharged. Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery,
turn the power switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the power switch was in before the 12-volt bat-
tery discharged, be especially careful when reconnecting the 12 -volt battery.
