or audio sound.
WARNING
■ If both the ABS and the brake s ystem warning lights remain on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact your To y o t a
dealer. The vehicle will become extremely unstable during braki ng, and the
ABS system may fail, which could cause an accident resulting in death or
serious injury.
■ When the electric power steering system warning light comes on
When the light comes on yellow, the assist to the power steerin g is
restricted. When the light comes on red, the assist to the powe r steering is
lost and handling operations of the steering wheel become extre mely
heavy. When steering wheel operations are heavier than usual, g rip the
steering wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usua l.
■
If the tire pressure warning light comes on
Handling method ( P. 4 2 3 )
Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failure to do so could
cause a loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust t he tire
inflation pressure immediately.
●If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inf lation pres-
sure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Chec k the tires.
If a tire is flat, repair the fla t tire by using emergency tire puncture
repair kit.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires dete riorate,
you could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.
■If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.
4548-2. Steps to take in an emergency
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62073U
Make sure the “READY” indicator comes on. If the indicator does
not come on, contact your Toyota dealer.
Once the fuel cell system has started, remove the jumper cables in
the exact reverse order from which they were connected.
Close the exclusive jump starting terminal cover, reinstall the motor
cover and the fuse box cover to its original position.
Once the fuel cell system starts, have the vehicle inspected at your
Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
■ Starting the fuel cell system when the 12-volt battery is discharged
The fuel cell system cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the fuel cell system 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 .
■ 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 fuel cell system may be unable to start. (The
12-volt battery recharges automatically while the fuel cell sys tem is operat-
ing.)
■ When the 12-volt battery is removed or discharged
● 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 fuel cell system may not start on the first attempt after t he 12-volt bat-
tery has recharged but will start normally after the second att empt. 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.
● If the 12-volt battery is depleted with the shift position in P , it will not be pos-
sible to shift the shift position other than P. In this case, the vehicle cannot
be towed without lifting both front wheels because the front wheels are
locked by the parking lock. ( P. 412)
