1-1. For safe use
WARNING
●Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side
airbags and SRS front seat center airbag inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the SRS airbags.
Such accessories may prevent the side airbags and SRS front seat center airbag from activating cor-
rectly, disable the system or cause the side airbags and SRS front seat center airbag to inflate accidentally,
resulting in death or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant
levels of force to the area of the SRS airbag components or the front doors.
Doing so can cause the SRS air- bags to malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS air-bags have deployed (inflated) as
they may be hot.
●If breathing becomes difficult after
the SRS airbags have deployed, open a door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it
is safe to do so. Wash off any resi- due as soon as possible to prevent skin irritation.
●If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering
wheel pad and front and rear pillar garnishes, are damaged or cracked, have them replaced by
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per-
form any of the following modifica- tions without consulting any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The SRS airbags may mal-function or deploy (inflate) acciden-
tally, causing death or serious injury.
●Installation, removal, disassembly and repair of the SRS airbags
●Repairs, modifications, removal or replacement of the steering wheel,
instrument panel, dashboard, seats or seat upholstery, front, side and rear pillars, roof side rails, front
door panels, front door trims or front door speakers
●Modifications to the front door panel (such as making a hole in it)
●Repairs or modifications of the front fender, front bumper, or side of the occupant compartment
●Installation of a grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar, etc.), snow
plows or winches
●Modifications to the vehicle’s sus-
pension system
●Installation of electronic devices
such as RF-transmitter and CD players

1-2. Child safety
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system in a rear seat. In the event that the rear seat cannot be
used, the front seat can be used as long as the airbag manual on-off sys-tem is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag deployment (inflation) may cause
serious injury or even death.
■When a child restraint system is
not installed on the front passen- ger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off
system is set to “ON”. If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident,
which may result in serious injury or even death.
Riding with children
Observe the following precau-
tions when children are in the
vehicle.
Use a child restraint system
appropriate for the child, until
the child becomes large
enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belt.
It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact with
the steering wheel, wiper
switch, etc.
Use the rear door child-protec-
tor lock or the window lock
switch to avoid children open-
ing the door while driving or
operating the power window
accidentally. ( P.188, 221)
Do not let small children oper-
ate equipment which may
catch or pinch body parts,
such as the power window,
hood, back door, seats, etc.
WARNING
■When children are in the vehicle
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehi- cle or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a danger that children
may injure themselves by playing with the windows or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or
extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

2-1. Electric vehicle system
WARNING
●Never try to open the service plug access hole located under the floor.
The service plug is used only when the vehicle is being serviced and is subject to high voltage.
■Road accident cautions
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of death or serious injury:
●Stop the vehicle in a safe place to
prevent subsequent accidents. While depressing the brake pedal, apply the parking brake and shift
the shift position to P to stop the EV system. Then, slowly release the brake pedal.
●Do not touch the high voltage parts, cables (orange) and connectors.
●If electric wires are exposed inside or outside your vehicle, an electric
shock may occur. Never touch exposed electric wires.
●Do not touch the traction battery if liquid is leaking from or adhered to it. If electrolyte (Organic Carbonate-
based electrolyte) from the traction battery comes into contact with the eyes or skin, it could cause blind-
ness or skin wounds. In the unlikely event that it comes into contact with the eyes or skin, wash it off immedi-
ately with a large amount of water, and seek immediate medical atten-tion.
●If electrolyte is leaking from the traction battery, do not approach the vehicle.
Even in the unlikely event that the traction battery has been damaged, the internal construction of the bat-
tery will prevent a large amount of electrolyte from leaking out. How-ever, if electrolyte leaks, vapors will
be emitted. These vapors are an irritant to skin and eyes and could cause acute poisoning if inhaled.
●Do not bring burning or high-tem-perature items close to the electro-
lyte. The electrolyte may ignite and cause a fire.
●If a fire occurs in the battery electric vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as possible. Never use a fire extin-
guisher that is not meant for electri- cal fires. Using even a small amount of water may be danger-
ous.
●If your vehicle needs to be towed,
be sure to transport the vehicle with the front wheels (2WD models) or four wheels (AWD models) raised.
If the vehicle is towed with the wheels which are connected to the electric motor (traction motor) con-
tacting the ground, electricity gener- ated by the operation of the motor may cause a fire to occur depend-
ing on the nature of the damage or malfunction. ( P.509)

2-2. Charging
WARNING
●When charging outdoors, make sure to connect to a rain-tight
socket for outdoor use. Ensure the rain-tight socket cover closes completely. If the rain-tight
socket cover cannot be closed, install a rain-tight socket cover that will close.
●In order to stop charging at the charging station, follow the instruc-
tions of the charger.
●If any heat, smoke, odors, noise or
other abnormalities are noticed during charging, stop charging immediately.
●Do not insert the plug if the socket is submerged in water or snow.
●When charging while it is raining or snowing, do not connect or discon-
nect the plug if your hands are wet. Also, do not get the plug or socket wet.
●Do not charge the vehicle during a lightning storm.
●Prevent the AC charging cable from being caught in the door or back
door.
●Do not let the wheels on the AC
charging cable, plug, charging con- nector and CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device).
●Firmly insert the plug into the socket.
●Do not use an extension cord and converting adaptor.
●Close the hood before using the charging system.The cooling fan may start operating
suddenly. Touching or getting close to rotating parts such as the fan may cause your hands or clothes
(especially a necktie or scarf) to become caught and result in a seri-ous injury.
●After connecting the charging cable, confirm that it is not wound
around anything.
●If the power indicator on the CCID
(Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) does not illuminate after plugging the AC charging cable into
the socket, unplug it immediately.
■If the error warning indicator on
the CCID (Charging Circuit Inter- rupting Device) illuminates or flashes during charging
There may be an electrical leakage in the power source path, or there may be a malfunction in the AC charging
cable or CCID (Charging Circuit Inter- rupting Device).
Refer to P.102 and follow the correc-
tion procedure. If the error warning indicator does not turn off even after performing the correction procedure,
immediately stop charging, remove the AC charging cable and contact any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer. Continuing to charge the vehicle in that condition may lead
to unforeseen accidents or serious injury.
■Onboard traction battery charger
The onboard traction battery charger is located in the motor compartment.
Make sure to observe the following precautions regarding the onboard traction battery charger. Failure to
observe these precautions may result in death or serious injury such as burns and electric shocks.
