WARNING
●Always wash your hands after han- dling the 12-volt battery support,
terminals, and other battery-related parts.
●Do not allow children near the 12-volt battery.
■After recharging the 12-volt bat-tery
Have the 12-volt battery inspected at
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-able repairer as soon as possible.
If the 12-volt battery is deteriorating, continued use may cause the 12-volt battery to emit a malodorous gas,
which may be detrimental to the health of passengers.
■When replacing the 12-volt bat-tery
●For information regarding 12-volt
battery replacement, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
●After replacing, securely attach the exhaust hose and exhaust hole plug to the exhaust hole of the
replaced 12-volt battery. If not prop- erly installed, gases (hydrogen) may leak into the vehicle interior,
and there is the possible danger of the gas igniting and exploding.
NOTICE

When connecting the jumper cables, ensure that they do not become entangled in the cooling fan, etc.
■To prevent damaging the vehicle
The exclusive jump starting terminal
is to be used when charging the 12- volt battery from another vehicle in an emergency. It cannot be used to jump
