Maintenance and care
Check the battery as follows.
■Battery exterior
Make sure that the battery termi-
nals are not corroded and that there
are no loose connections, cracks,
or loose clamps.
Te r m i n a l s
Hold-down clamp
■Before recharging
When recharging, the battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable and
explosive. Therefore, observe the fol-
lowing precautions before recharging:
●If recharging with the battery installed
on the vehicle, be sure to disconnect the ground cable.
●Make sure the charger is off when connecting and disconnecting the
charger cables to the battery.
■After recharging/reconnecting the
battery (vehicles with a smart entry & start system)
●Vehicles with entry function: Unlock-ing the doors using the smart entry &
start system may not be possible
immediately after reconnecting the battery. If this happens, use the wire-
less remote control or the mechanical
key to lock/unlock the doors.
●Start the engine with the engine
switch in ACC. The engine may not
start with the engine switch turned off. However, the engine will operate nor-
mally from the second attempt.
●The engine switch mode is recorded
by the vehicle. If the battery is recon-
nected, the vehicle will return the engine switch mode to the status it
was in before the battery was discon-
nected. Make sure to turn off the engine before disconnecting the bat-
tery. Take extra care when connecting
the battery if the engine switch mode prior to discharge is unknown.
If the system will not start even after
multiple attempts, contact any author- ized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

If the electronic ke y remains lost, the
risk of vehicle thef t increases signifi-
cantly. Visit any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer immediately
with all remaining electronic keys that were provided with your vehicle.
If the electronic key
does not operate prop-
erly (vehicles with a
smar t entr y & star t sys-
tem)
If communication between the
electronic key and vehicle is
interrupted ( P.122) or the
electronic key cannot be used
because the battery is
depleted, the smart entry &
start system and wireless
remote control cannot be used.
In such cases, the doors can
be opened and the engine can
be started by following the pro-
cedure below.
NOTICE
■In case of a smart entry & start
system malfunction or other key-related problems
Take your vehicle with all the elec-
tronic keys provided with your vehicle to any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
5168-2. Steps to take in an emergency
moving parts as shown in the illustration
5 Start the engine of the second
vehicle. Increase the engine
speed slightly and maintain at
that level for approximately 5
minutes to recharge the battery
of your vehicle.
6 Vehicles with a smart entry &
start system: Open and close
any of the doors of your vehicle
with the engine switch OFF.
7 Maintain the engine speed of
the second vehicle and start the
engine of your vehicle by turning
the engine switch to ON.
8 Once the vehicle’s engine has
started, remove the jumper
cables in the exact reverse
order from which they were con-
nected.
9 1ZR-FAE engine: Reinstall the
engine cover.
9 M15A-FKS engine: Reinstall the
positive (+) battery terminal
cover.
Once the engine starts, have the
vehicle inspected at any author-
ized Toyota reta iler or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer as soon as possible.
■Starting the engine when the bat- tery is discharged
The engine cannot be started by
push-starting.
■To prevent battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio
system while the engine is off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical
components when the vehicle is run-
ning at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
■When the battery is removed or dis-
charged
●Information stored in the ECU is
cleared. When the battery is depleted,
have the vehicle inspected at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
●Some systems may require initializa-
tion. ( P.547)
■When removing the battery termi- nals
When the battery terminals are
removed, the information stored in the ECU is cleared. Before removing the
battery terminals, contact any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will
discharge gradually even when the vehi- cle is not in use, due to natural dis-
charge and the draining effects of
certain electrical appliances. If the vehi- cle is left for a long time, the battery may
discharge, and the engine may be una-
ble to start. (The battery recharges auto- matically during driving.)
■When recharging or replacing the
battery (vehicles with a smart entry
& start system)
●Vehicles with entry function: In some
cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart entry
& start system when the battery is dis-
charged. Use the wireless remote
control or the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
●The engine may not start on the first attempt after the battery has
recharged but will start normally after
the second attempt. This is not a mal- function.
