When trouble arises
■When opening the cover of the positive (+) battery terminal
P. 595
■ Starting the hybrid system when the 12-volt battery is discharged
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. 752)
■ 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 s tart. (The
12-volt battery recharges automatically while the hybrid system is operating.)
