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.

WARNING
●Do not apply a load to the AC charging cable and plug-cord (such
as wrapping the AC charging cable around the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) and the
charging connector).
●Do not use or leave the AC
charging cable in situations where a load is applied to the socket and the plug (such as when the CCID
(Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is hanging in the air without contacting the ground).
