Fuel cell stack
●Depending on the usage environment, the fuel cell power output may
decline over the life of the vehicle. However, this will have almost no effect
on driving performance.
● In the following situations, the fuel cell power output may dec line faster than
normal driving:
• Extended use in areas with high amounts of dust
• Extended use in areas with high levels of sulfur (such as volc anoes or hot
springs).
• Extended use in areas with high concentrations of the following substances:
-Organic solvents, such as paint and thinner
-Amine-related materials such as ammonia
-Chlorinated substances such as salt air and snow-melting agent
However, upon returning to normal environment, the fuel cell po wer output
will recover over time.
• Salt water gets into the air cleaner filter It is recommended to replace the air cleaner filter and clean t he surround-
ing components. Have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota deale r
• The number of times the fuel cell system is started and stoppe d is exces-
sively high
• Extended use in freezing temperatures
■ Hydrogen tanks
●The hydrogen tanks are the high-pressure storage containers that are filled
with compressed hydrogen gas. The vehicle can be refueled at hy drogen
stations.
● The hydrogen tanks have an expiration date. Vehicles with expir ed hydro-
gen tanks must not be driven or refueled until the hydrogen tanks are
replaced. The expiration date is written on the inside of the fuel door. Con-
sult your Toyota dealer.
● When disposing of the hydrogen tanks or the hydrogen tank valve s, consult
your Toyota dealer for details.

◆Using Eco drive mode
Using Eco drive mode (P. 195) makes torque generation less
aggressive than normal when stepping on the accelerator pedal,
leading to improvement in fuel economy.
Also, is displayed on the air conditioning screen, indicating
the switch to ECO HEAT/COOL mode ( P. 3 0 8 ) .
◆Air conditioning system on/off
● Turn off the air conditioning system operation switch except
when necessary to help curb fuel consumption.
In summer: When the ambient temperature is high, use the recircu -
lated air mode. This decreases the load on the air con-
ditioning system.
In winter: Avoid excess heating. Use the seat heater to minimize the need for cabin heating ( P. 316).
● By pushing , ECO HEAT/COOL mode is turned on. This
helps curb fuel consumption even with the air conditioning syst em
turned on.
◆Checking tire inflation pressure
Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure frequently. Impr oper
tire inflation pressure can cause poor fuel economy.
Additionally, snow tires have mo re rolling friction and their use on
dry roads lead to poor fuel economy. Use tires that are appropr iate
for the season.
◆Luggage
Avoid carrying unnecessary luggage and unload excess weight in
order avoid poor fuel economy. Installing a large roof rack wil l also
reduce fuel economy.

Opening the fuel door
●Close the all the doors and windows.
● Set the parking brake.
● Shift the shift position to P.
● Turn the power switch off.
● Turn off the headlights.
■Fuel Type
Compressed hydrogen gas
■ Notes on fueling
●Fueling will not be possible if the pressure inside the vehicle ’s hydrogen tanks
is higher than the supply pressure of the hydrogen station. If the hydrogen
tanks are more than half full, the vehicle will be unable to fu el at a H35 dis-
penser.
A hydrogen station with a H70 dispenser (supply pressure of 101 50 psi
[70 MPa, 714 kgf/cm
2, 700 bar] is necessary to completely fill hydrogen tanks.
● If the fueling cannot be completed due to trouble with the station equipment,
call the number indicated on the equipment.
● Fuel with compressed hydrogen g as only at hydrogen stations.
● Fuel at hydrogen stations confor ming with the Society of Automo-
tive Engineers (SAE) J2601 fueling protocol or laws that may
supersede such SAE protocols.
● Refer to the Mirai Station Finder Application in Connected ser-
vices, https://www.toyota.com/connected-services
(for U.S. own-
ers) or https://www.toyota.ca/connected
(for Canadian owners), or
call 1-800-331-4331 (for U.S. owners) or 1-888-869-6828 (for
Canadian owners).
● Observe any notic es or instructions show n at hydrogen stations.
● The filling time and amount of fuel may depend on outside tem-
perature and the equipment at that hydrogen station.
● Vehicles with expired hydrogen tanks must not be used. ( P. 94)
Consult your Toyota dealer.
