8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
on a hard, flat surface.
 Set the parking brake.
 Shift the shift position to P.
 Stop the EV system.
 Turn on the emergency flashers.
 Check the degree of the tire
damage.
A tire should only be repaired with the
emergency tire puncture repair kit if the
damage is caused by a nail or screw
passing through the tire tread.
• Do not remove the nail or screw from
the tire. Removing the object may
widen the opening and make emer-
gency repair with the repair kit impos-
sible.
• To avoid sealant leakage, move the
vehicle until the area of the puncture,
if known, is positioned at the top of
the tire.
■A flat tire that cannot be repaired with the emergency tire puncture
repair kit
In the following cases, the tire cannot be repaired with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●When the tire is damaged due to driv-ing without sufficient air pressure
●When there are any cracks or damage at any location on the tire, such as on
the side wall, except the tread
●When the tire is visibly separated from the wheel
●When the cut or damage to the tread is 4 mm (0.16 in.) long or more
●When the wheel is damaged

24Store the bottle in the luggage
compartment while it is con-
nected to the compressor.
25 Taking precautions to avoid sud-
den braking, sudden accelera-
tion and sharp turns, drive
carefully at under 80 km/h (50
mph) to the nearest authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable
repairer that is less than 100 km
(62 miles) away for tire repair or
replacement.

or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
When having the tire repaired or
replaced, make sure to tell any autho- rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-rized repairer, or any reliable repairer
that the sealant is injected.
■If the tire is inflated to more than the specified air pressure
1 Disconnect the hose from the valve.
2 Install the air release cap to the end of the hose and push the protrusion
on the air release cap into the valve to let some air out.
3 Disconnect the hose from the valve,
remove the air release cap from the hose and then reconnect the hose.
4 Turn the compressor switch on and wait for several seconds, then turn it
off. Check that the air pressure indi- cator shows the specified air pres-sure is reached. ( P.559)
If the air pressure is under the desig- nated pressure, turn the compres-sor switch on again and repeat the
inflation procedure until the specified air pressure is reached.
■After a tire is repaired with the emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The tire pressure warning valve and transmitter should be replaced.
●Even if the tire inflation pressure is at the recommended level, the tire pres-
sure warning light may come on/flash.
WARNING
■When fixing the flat tire
●Stop your vehicle in a safe and flat
area.
●Do not touch the wheels or the area
around the brakes immediately after the vehicle has been driven. After the vehicle has been driven,
the wheels and the area around the brakes may be extremely hot. Touching these areas with hands,
feet or other body parts may result in burns.

WARNING
●Connect the valve and hose securely with the tire installed on
the vehicle.
If the hose is not properly connected
to the valve, air leakage may occur as
sealant may be sprayed out.
●If the hose comes off the valve while inflating the tire, there is a risk that the hose will move abruptly due
to air pressure.
●After inflation of the tire has com-
pleted, the sealant may splatter when the hose is disconnected or some air is let out of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure to repair the tire. If the procedure is
not followed, the sealant may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it is being repaired, as there is a chance of it bursting while the repair opera-
tion is being performed. If you notice any cracks or deformation of the tire, turn off the compressor
switch and stop the repair operation immediately.
●The repair kit may overheat if oper-ated for a long period of time. Do not operate the compressor contin-
uously for more than 40 minutes.
●Parts of the repair kit become hot
during operation. Be careful han- dling the repair kit during and after operation. Do not touch the metal
part connecting the bottle and the compressor. It will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed warning sticker to an area other than the one indicated. If the sticker
is attached to an area where an SRS airbag is located, such as the pad of the steering wheel, it may
prevent the SRS air bag from oper- ating properly.
■Driving to spread the liquid seal-ant evenly
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or
serious injury.
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a low speed. Be especially careful when
turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle does not drive straight
or you feel a pull through the steer- ing wheel, stop the vehicle and check the following:
• Tire condition. The tire may have separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire
inflation pressure is 130 kPa (1.3
kgf/cm2 or bar, 19 psi) or less, the tire may be severely damaged.
NOTICE
■When performing an emergency repair
●Perform the emergency repair with-
out removing the nail or screw that has punctured the tread of the tire. If the object that has punctured the
tire is removed, repair by the emer- gency tire puncture repair kit may not be possible.
●The repair kit is not waterproof. Make sure that the repair kit is not
exposed to water, such as when it is being used in the rain.
●Do not put the repair kit directly onto dusty ground such as sand at the side of the road. If the repair kit
vacuums up dust, etc., a malfunc- tion may occur.
●Make sure the sealant bottle of the repair kit is in a vertical position. The repair kit does not operate
properly when it is laid.

8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
order from which they were con-
nected.
10 Close the positive (+) battery
terminal cover.
Once the EV system starts, have
the vehicle inspected at any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer as soon as possible.
■Starting the EV system when the 12-volt battery is discharged
The EV system cannot be started by push-starting.
■To prevent 12-volt battery dis-charge
●Turn off the headlights, the air condi-tioning system, the audio system, etc.
while the EV system is off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical
components when the vehicle is run- ning 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 bat- tery will discharge gradually even when the vehicle is not in use, due to natural
discharge and the draining effects of certain electrical appliances. If the vehi-cle is left for a long time, the 12-volt bat-
tery may discharge, and the EV system may be unable to start. (The 12-volt bat-tery recharges automatically while the
EV system is operating.)
■When the 12-volt battery is removed or discharged
●Information stored in the ECU is cleared. When the 12-volt battery is depleted, have the vehicle inspected
at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-able repairer.
●In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart
entry & start 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 EV 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 bat-
tery, turn the power switch off. If you are unsure what mode the power switch was in before the 12-volt
battery discharged, be especially careful when reconnecting the 12-volt battery.
●If the 12-volt battery discharges, it may not be possible to shift the shift
position to other positions. In this case, the vehicle cannot be towed without lifting both front wheels
because the front wheels will be locked.
●The power back door (if equipped) must be initialized. ( P.198)
■When replacing the 12-volt battery
●Use a 12-volt battery that conforms to European regulations.
●Use a 12-volt battery that the case size is same as the previous one (LN1), 20 hour rate capacity (20HR) is
equivalent (45Ah) or greater, and per- formance rating (CCA) is equivalent (286A) or greater.
• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt battery cannot be properly secured.• If an improper 12-volt battery is used,
battery performance may decrease and the EV system may not be able to restart.
• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low, even if the time period where the vehi-cle is not used is a short time, the 12-
volt battery may discharge and EV system may not be able to start.
