WARNING
■After recharging the battery
Have the battery inspected at any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
If the battery is deteriorating, contin- ued use may cause the battery to emit a malodorous gas, which may be
detrimental to the health of passen- gers.

●For information regarding battery replacement, contact any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●After replacing, securely attach the exhaust hose and exhaust hole

leak into the vehicle interior, and there is the possible danger of the gas igniting and exploding.
