■PCS-linked seat belt pretensioner
control
If the PCS (Pre-Collision System) deter- mines that the possibility of a collision
with a vehicle is high, the seat belt pretensioners will be prepared to oper-ate.
WARNING
■Seat belt pretensioners
If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS warning light will come on. In
that case, the seat belt cannot be used again and must be replaced at any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer.Failure to do so may cause death or
serious injury.

WARNING
■SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions
regarding the SRS airbags. Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
●The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts properly.
The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat belts.
●The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause
death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the air-bag.
Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.) of inflation, placing yourself 250
mm (10 in.) from your driver airbag provides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured
from the center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less than 250 mm (10 in.) away
now, you can change your driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the ped-als comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250
mm (10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, sim-ply by reclining the back of the seat
somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm,
non-slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air-bag toward your chest instead of
your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as rec- ommended above, while still main-
taining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instrument panel controls.
●The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable
force, and can cause death or seri- ous injury especially if the front pas-senger is very close to the airbag.
The front passenger seat should be as far from the airbag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the
front passenger sits upright.
●Improperly seated and/or restrained
infants and children can be killed or seriously injured by a deploying air-bag. An infant or child who is too
small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint system. Toyota strongly
recommends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats of the vehicle and properly
restrained. The rear seats are safer for infants and children than the front passenger seat. ( P. 4 9 )

1-3. Emergency assistance
tance required.
Make sure to open the cover before
pressing the “SOS” button.
If you accidentally press the “SOS” but-
ton, tell the operator that you are not
experiencing an emergency.
*: In some cases, the call cannot be
made. ( P. 6 6 )
When the power switch is turned to
ON, the red indicator light will illumi-
nate for 10 seconds and then the
green indicator light will illuminate,
indicating that the system is
enabled. The indicator lights indi-
cate the following:
 If the green indicator light illumi-
nates and stays on, the system is
enabled.
 If the green indicator light
flashes, an automatic or manual
Emergency Call is being made.
 If the red indicator light illumi-
nates and a buzzer sounds 5
times (on some models) at any
time other than immediately after
the power switch is turned to ON,
the system may be malfunction-
ing or the backup battery may be
depleted.
 If the red indicator light blinks for
approximately 30 seconds during
an Emergency Call, the call has
been disconnected or the cellular
network signal is weak.

WARNING
■When the Emergency Call may not be made
●It may not be possible to make Emergency Calls in any of the fol-lowing situations. In such cases,
report to emergency services pro- vider (112 system etc.) by other means such as nearby public
phones.
• Even when the vehicle is in the cel- lular phone service area, it may be
difficult to connect to the eCall con- trol center if the reception is poor or the line is busy. In such cases, even
though the system attempts to con- nect to the eCall control center, you may not be able to connect to the
eCall control center to make Emer- gency Calls and contact emergency services.
• When the vehicle is out of the cellu- lar phone service area, the Emer-
gency Calls cannot be made.
• When any related equipment (such
as the “SOS” button panel, indicator lights, microphone, speaker, DCM, antenna, or any wires connecting
the equipment) is malfunctioning, damaged or broken, the Emer-gency Call cannot be made.

2-1. Electric vehicle system
■Charging the traction battery
Be sure to maintain the traction battery charge level suitable for your driving needs.
If the traction battery fully discharges, the vehicle cannot be driven at all. When the battery becomes low, charge it as
soon as possible.
■If the traction battery becomes low
●If the traction battery becomes low,
the traction battery charge warning light comes on or flashes and a mes-sage will be displayed on the multi-
information display. ( P.517)
●If the traction battery is completely
discharged, the EV system cannot be started and driving will not be possi-ble. When the traction battery
becomes low, charge it as soon as possible.
■Sounds and vibrations specific to an battery electric vehicle
Because there is no engine sound or vibration, it is easy to mistake the bat-tery electric vehicle for being off when it
is actually still running, as indicated by the “READY” indicator being illuminated. For safety, make sure to always shift the
shift position to P and apply the parking brake when parked.
Before and after the EV system is
started, the following sounds and vibra- tions may occur. However, these sounds and/or vibrations are not signs of mal-
functions:
●The brake system operation sound
may be heard from the front of the vehicle when the driver’s door is opened.
●Motor sounds may be heard from the motor compartment or luggage com-
partment.
●Electrical relay sounds may be heard
from the motor compartment when the EV system starts or stops.
●Relay operating sounds such as a snap or soft clank will be emitted from the traction battery in the following sit-
uations:
• When the EV system is started or stopped• When charging starts or completes
• When the vehicle is driven the first time after the traction battery has been charged using DC charging
●Sounds may be heard due to regener-ative braking when the brake pedal is
depressed or as the accelerator pedal is released.
●Cooling fan operating sounds from the radiator.
●The operation sound of the air condi-tioning system (air conditioning com-pressor, blower motor).
■Maintenance, repair, recycling, and
disposal
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer regarding maintenance, repair, recycling and disposal. Do not dispose of the vehicle yourself.
A sound which changes in accor-
dance with the driving speed, will
be played in order to warn people
nearby of the vehicle’s approach.
This sound may be heard inside the
vehicle. The sound will stop when
the vehicle speed exceeds approxi-
mately 25 km/h (15 mph).
■Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System
In the following cases, the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System may be difficult
for surrounding people to hear.
●In very noisy areas
●In the wind or the rain
Also, as the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting
System is installed on the front of the
Acoustic Vehicle Alerting

2-1. Electric vehicle system
When a certain level of impact is
detected by the impact sensors, the
emergency shut off system turns off
the EV system and blocks the high
voltage current. If the emergency
shut off system activates, your vehi-
cle will not restart. To restart the EV
system, contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
A message is automatically dis-
played when a malfunction occurs
in the EV system or an improper
operation is attempted.
If a warning message is shown on
the multi-information display, read
the message and follow the instruc-
tions. ( P.160, 523)
■If a warning light comes on, a warn- ing message is displayed, or the 12-volt battery is disconnected
The EV system may not start.
In that case, try to start the system again. If the “READY” indicator does not
come on, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■When the traction battery is com-
pletely discharged
When the EV system cannot be started due to the traction battery being com-
pletely discharged, restart the system after AC charging or DC charging. When
charging, it is recommended to charge the traction battery until the traction bat-tery charge warning light turns off in
order to ensure sufficient driving dis- tance.
WARNING
●If the vehicle under floor area receives strong shock or impact
while driving, stop the vehicle in a safe place and check around the bottom of the vehicle. If there is
damage to the traction battery or liquid leakage, it may lead to a vehi-cle fire, etc. Do not touch the vehi-
cle and immediately contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer. Even if no damage can be seen under the floor, the traction battery
may be damaged. If the vehicle received an impact under the floor, have the traction battery inspected
at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Modifications
Do not make modifications that lower
the height of the vehicle. The traction battery in the under floor area may come into contact with the ground
when the height of vehicle is lowered. If the traction battery is damaged, a vehicle fire may occur, possibly result-
ing in death or serious injury.
