1-4.Theft de terre nt sys te m
The security indicator flashes after
the power switch has been turned
off to indicate that the system is
operating.
The indicator stops flashing after
the power switch has been turned
to ACC or ON to indicate that the
system has been canceled.
■System maintenance
The vehicle has a maintenance-free type immobilizer system.
■Conditions that may cause the sys-
tem to malfunction
●If the grip portion of the key is in con-
tact with a metallic object
●If the key is in close proximity to or
touching a key registered to the secu- rity system (key with a built-in tran-sponder chip) of another vehicle
Immobilizer system
The vehicle’s keys have built-
in transponder chips that pre-
vent the EV system from start-
ing if a key has not been
previously registered in the
vehicle’s on-board computer.
Never leave the keys inside the
vehicle when you leave the
vehicle.
This system is designed to help
prevent vehicle theft but does not
guarantee absolute security
against all vehicle thefts.

■Items to check before locking
the vehicle
To prevent unexpected triggering of
the alarm and vehicle theft, make
sure of the following.
 Nobody is in the vehicle.
 The windows are closed before
the alarm is set.
 No valuables or other personal
items are left in the vehicle.
■Setting
Close the doors and hood, and lock
all the doors using the entry func-
tion or wireless remote control. The
system will be set automatically
after 30 seconds.
The security indicator changes from
being on to flashing when the system is
set.
■Canceling or stopping
Do one of the following to deacti-
vate or stop the alarm.
 Unlock the doors using the entry
function or wireless remote con-
trol.
 Start the EV system. (The alarm
will be deactivated or stopped
after a few seconds.)
■System maintenance
The vehicle has a maintenance-free type alarm system.
■Triggering of the alarm
The alarm may be triggered in the fol-
lowing situations: (Stopping the alarm deactivates the
Alarm*
The alarm uses light and
sound to give an alert when an
intrusion is detected.
The alarm is triggered in the
following situations when the
alarm is set:
 A locked door is unlocked or
opened in any way other than
using the entry function or
wireless remote control. (The
doors will lock again automati-
cally.)

●The doors are unlocked using the mechanical key.
●A person inside the vehicle opens a door or hood, or unlocks the vehicle
using an inside lock button.
●The 12-volt battery is disconnected.
( P.547)
■Alarm-operated door lock
In the following cases, depending on the situation, the door may automatically lock to prevent improper entry into the
vehicle:
●When a person remaining in the vehi-
cle unlocks the door and the alarm is activated.
●While the alarm is activated, a person remaining in the vehicle unlocks the door.
●When recharging or replacing the 12-volt battery.
■The intrusion sensor and tilt
sensor detection
 The intrusion sensor detects
intruders or movement in the
vehicle.
 The tilt sensor detects changes
in vehicle inclination, such as
when the vehicle is towed away.
This system is designed to deter
and prevent vehicle theft but does
not guarantee absolute security
against all intrusions.
■Setting the intrusion sensor
and tilt sensor
The intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
will be set automatically when the
alarm is set. ( P. 7 7 )
■Canceling the intrusion sensor
and tilt sensor
If you are leaving pets or other
moving things inside the vehicle,
make sure to disable the intrusion
sensor and tilt sensor before setting
the alarm, as they will respond to
movement inside the vehicle.
1 Turn the power switch off.

■To ensure the system operates correctly
Do not modify or remove the system. If modified or removed, the proper operation of the system cannot be
guaranteed.

2Press the intrusion sensor and
tilt sensor cancel switch.
Press the switch again to re-enable the
intrusion sensor and tilt sensor.
Each time the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor are canceled/set, a message
will be shown on the multi-information display in the instrument cluster.
■Canceling and automatic re-
enabling of the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
●The alarm will still be set even when the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor are canceled.
●After the intrusion sensor and tilt sen-sor are canceled, pressing the power
switch or unlocking the doors using the entry function (if equipped) or wireless remote control will re-enable
the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor.
●The intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
will automatically be re-enabled when the alarm system is reactivated.
●The intrusion sensor will automatically be canceled when the remote air con-ditioning system is activated.
■Intrusion sensor detection consid-erations
The sensor may trigger the alarm in the
following situations:
●People or pets are in the vehicle.
●A window is open.
In this case, the sensor may detect the
following:
• Wind or the movement of objects such as leaves and insects inside the vehi-cle
• Ultrasonic waves emitted from devices such as the intrusion sensors of other vehicles
• The movement of people outside the vehicle
●Unstable items, such as dangling accessories or clothes hanging on the coat hooks, are in the vehicle.
●The vehicle is parked in a place where extreme vibrations or noises occur,
such as in a parking garage.

●Ice or snow is removed from the vehi-
cle, causing the vehicle to receive repeated impacts or vibrations.
●The vehicle is inside an automatic or high-pressure car wash.
●The vehicle experiences impacts, such as hail, lightning strikes, and other kinds of repeated impacts or
vibrations.
■Tilt sensor detection consider- ations
The sensor may trigger the alarm in the
following situations:
●The vehicle is transported by a ferry,
trailer, train, etc.
●The vehicle is parked in a parking
garage.
●The vehicle is inside a car wash that
moves the vehicle.
●Any of the tires loses air pressure.
●The vehicle is jacked up.
●An earthquake occurs or the road caves in.
●Cargo is loaded onto or unloaded from the roof luggage carrier.
NOTICE
■To ensure the intrusion sensor functions correctly
●Do not spray air fresheners or other products directly into the sensor holes.
●To ensure that the sensors operate properly, do not touch or cover
them.
●Installing accessories other than
genuine Toyota parts or leaving objects between the driver’s seat and front passenger’s seat may
reduce the detection performance.
●The intrusion sensor may be can-
celed when the electronic key is near the vehicle.

12-volt battery
Provides electricity to various vehicle systems such as the SRS airbags, headlights,
wipers, etc.
*: AWD models only
■When braking (regenerative
braking)
The battery electric motor (traction
motor) charges the traction battery.
The driving range can be extended
by actively using this regenerative
braking to store electricity in the
traction battery.
The battery electric vehicle is
driven using electricity, which is
received from an external power
source and stored in the traction
battery. Not only public charging
stations, but also household sock-
ets can be used for charging. Pro-
cedures are different from refueling
a conventional vehicle. Therefore,
make sure to read the following
thoroughly.
 Charging equipment (P.95)
 AC charging cable (P. 9 8 )
 Power sources that can be used
( P.112)
 Things to know before charging
( P.118)
 How to charge your vehicle
( P.121, 129)
 When charging cannot be per-
formed normally ( P.152)
■Regenerative braking
In the following situations, kinetic energy
is converted to electric energy and deceleration force can be obtained in conjunction with the recharging of the
traction battery.
●The accelerator pedal is released
while driving with the shift position in D.
●The brake pedal is depressed while driving with the shift position in D.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
The 12-volt battery is charged from the
traction battery when the EV system is operated or while the traction battery is being charged.
If the vehicle has not been used for a long time, the 12-volt battery may become low due to self-discharge. If this
occurs, follow the correct procedures. ( P.544)
■When not using the vehicle for an
extended period of time
●When the vehicle will not be used for
an extended period of time, charge the traction battery once a month. This protects the traction battery from
extreme voltage decline due to self discharging.
●When the vehicle will not be used for an extended period of time, the 12-volt battery will be charged from the
traction battery to reduce the risk of the 12-volt battery discharged. In this case, the cooling fan may operate,
however it is not a malfunction.
●To prevent the 12-volt battery from
being discharged, do not leave the charging port lid open or the charging cable connected to the vehicle.
