WARNING
■High voltage precautions 
This vehicle has high voltage DC and AC systems as well as a 12 -volt sys- 
tem.  DC  and  AC  high  voltage  is  very  dangerous  and  can  cause  sev ere 
burns and electric shock that may result in death or serious in jury. 
● Never  touch,  disassemble,  remove  or  replace  the  high  voltage  parts, 
cables or their connectors. 
● The hybrid system will  become  hot after starting as the  system uses  high 
voltage. Be careful of both the high voltage and the high tempe rature, and 
always obey the warning labels attached to the vehicle.
● Never  try  to  open  the  service  plug 
access hole located under the right side 
of  the  rear  seat.  The  service  plug  is 
used  only  when  the  vehicle  is  serviced
and is subject to high voltage.

WARNING
■Road accident cautions 
Observe  the  following  precautions  to  reduce  the  risk  of  death  o r  serious 
injury: 
● Pull  your vehicle  off  the road,  apply the parking brake,  shift the shift  lever 
to P, and turn the hybrid system off. 
● Do not touch the high voltage parts, cables and connectors. 
● If  electric  wires  are  exposed  inside  or  outside  your  vehicle,  an  electric 
shock may occur. Never touch exposed electric wires. 
● 2ZR-FXE engine (for Guadelope, Martinique, F. Guiana and Greenland): If 
a fluid leak occurs, do not touch the fluid as it may be strong  alkaline elec- 
trolyte  from  the  hybrid  battery  (traction  battery).  If  it  comes   into  contact 
with your skin or eyes, wash it off immediately with a large am ount of water 
or, if possible, boric acid solution. Seek immediate medical at tention. 
● 2ZR-FXE  engine  (except  for  Guadelope,  Martinique,  F.  Guiana  and 
Greenland): Do not touch the batte ry if liquid is leaking from or adhering to 
it. If electrolyte (carbonic-based organic electrolyte) from th e hybrid battery 
(traction  battery)  comes  into  contact  with  the  eyes  or  skin,  it   could  cause 
blindness  or  skin  wounds.  In  the  unlikely  event  that  it  comes  i nto  contact 
with the eyes or skin, wash it of f immediately with a large amount of water, 
and seek immediate medical attention. 
● 2ZR-FXE  engine  (except  for  Guadelope,  Martinique,  F.  Guiana  and 
Greenland):  If  electrolyte  is  leaking  from  the  hybrid  battery  ( traction  bat- 
tery),  do  not  approach  the  vehicle.  Even  in  the  unlikely  event  that  the 
hybrid  battery  (traction  battery)  is  damaged,  the  internal  cons truction  of 
the  battery  will  prevent  a  large  amount  of  electrolyte  from  lea king  out. 
However, any electrolyte that does leak out will give off a vap or. This vapor 
is an irritant to skin and eyes and could cause acute poisoning  if inhaled. 
● 2ZR-FXE  engine  (except  for  Guadelope,  Martinique,  F.  Guiana  and 
Greenland):  Do  not  bring  burning  or   high-temperature  items  close  to  the 
electrolyte. The electrolyte may ignite and cause a fire. 
● If a fire occurs in the Hybrid Electric Vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as 
possible.  Never  use  a  fire  extinguisher  that  is  not  meant  for  e lectric  fires. 
Using even a small amount of water may be dangerous. 
● If  your  vehicle  needs  to  be  towed,  do  so  with  front  wheels  raised.  If  the 
wheels connected to the electric motor (traction motor) are on  the ground 
when  towing,  the  motor  may  continue  to  generate  electricity.  Th is  may 
cause a fire. ( P. 674) 
● Carefully  inspect  the  ground  under  the  vehicle.  If  you  find  that  liquid  has 
leaked onto the ground, the fuel system may have been damaged.  Leave 
the vehicle as soon as possible.

WARNING
■Hybrid battery (traction battery) 
● 2ZR-FXE  engine  (except  for  Guadelope,  Martinique,  F.  Guiana  and 
Greenland): Your vehicle contains a sealed lithium-ion battery. 
● Never resell, hand over or modify the hybrid battery. To prevent accidents, 
hybrid batteries that  have been removed from a disposed vehicle  are col- 
lected through any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authori zed repairer, 
or any reliable repairer. Do not dispose of the battery yoursel f. 
Unless the battery is properly collected, the following may occ ur, resulting 
in death or serious injury: 
• The hybrid battery may be illegally disposed of or dumped, and  it is haz- 
ardous  to  the  environment  or  someone  may  touch  a  high  voltage  p art, 
resulting in an electric shock. 
• The  hybrid  battery  is  intended  to  be  used  exclusively  with  you r  Hybrid 
Electric  Vehicle.  If  the  hybrid  battery  is  used  outside  of  your   vehicle  or 
modified in any way, accidents such as electric shock, heat gen eration, 
smoke generation, an explosion  and electrolyte leakage may occur. 
When reselling or handing over your vehicle, the possibility of  an accident 
is  extremely  high  because  the  person  receiving  the  vehicle  may  not  be 
aware of these dangers. 
● If  your  vehicle  is  disposed  of  without  the  hybrid  battery  having  been 
removed, there is a danger of serious electric shock if high vo ltage  parts, 
cables  and  their  connectors  are  touched.  In  the  event  that  your   vehicle 
must be disposed of, the hybrid battery must be disposed of by  any autho- 
rized Toyota  retailer or Toyota  authorized  repairer,  or  any  rel iable  repairer 
or a qualified service shop. If the hybrid battery is not dispo sed of properly, 
it may cause electric shock that can result in death or serious  injury.
