WARNING
■Maintenance of the tires
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation p ressure
label (tire and load information label). (If your vehicle has t ires of a dif-
ferent size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or t ire inflation
pressure label [tire and load information label], you should de termine
the proper tire inflation p ressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS -tire pressure warning system) that
illuminates a low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) when
one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Acco rdingly,
when the low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning ligh t) illumi-
nates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible , and
inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread lif e, and may
affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) is not a sub-
stitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s res ponsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached
the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light).
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS (tire pressure warn-
ing system) malfunction indicato r to indicate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS (tire pressure warning system) mal func-
tion indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure
warning light). When the system detects a malfunction, the tell tale will
flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle star t-ups
as long as the malfunction exists . When the malfunction indicator is illu-
minated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tir e pres-
sure as intended.
TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunctions may occur for a vari-
ety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires
or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS (tire pressure w arning
system) from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS (tire pres-
sure warning system) malfunction telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alter-
nate tires and wheels allow the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) to
continue to function properly.

When trouble arises
WARNING
■Driving to spread the liquid sealant evenly
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and ca use death
or serious injury.
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a low speed. Be especially careful when
turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle does not drive straight or you feel a pull throu gh the
steering wheel, stop the vehicle and check the following.
• Tire condition. The tire may have separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire inflation pressure is 19 psi (130 kPa, 1.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar) or less, the tire may be severely dam-
aged.
NOTICE
■When performing an emergency repair
●A tire should only be repaired with the emergency tire puncture repair
kit if the damage is caused by a sharp object such as nail or screw
passing through the tire tread.
Do not remove the sharp object from the tire. Removing the obje ct may
widen the opening and disenable e mergency repair with the repair kit.
●The repair kit is not waterproof. Make sure that the repair kit is not
exposed to water, such as when it is being used in the rain.
●Do not put the repair kit directly onto dusty ground such as sa nd at the
side of the road. If the repair kit vacuums up dust etc., a mal function
may occur.
■Precautions for the emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The repair kit power source should be 12 V DC suitable for vehi cle
use. Do not connect the repa ir kit to any other source.
●If fuel splatters on the repair kit, the repair kit may deterio rate. Take
care not to allow fuel to contact it.
●Place the repair kit in a storage to prevent it from being exposed to dirt
or water.
●Store the repair kit in the luggage compartment out of reach of chil-
dren.
●Do not disassemble or modify the repair kit. Do not subject par ts such
as the air pressure indicator to impacts. This may cause a malfunction.

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
If the hybrid system will not start
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
● The electronic key may no t be functioning properly.
* ( P. 643)
● There may not be sufficient f uel in the vehicle’s tank.
Refuel the vehicle. ( P. 91)
● There may be a malfunction in the immobilizer system.
* ( P. 9 6 )
● There may be a malfunction i n the shift control system.
*
( P. 243, 606)
● The hybrid system may be malfunc tioning due to an electrical prob-
lem such as electronic key battery depletion or a blown fuse. H ow-
ever, depending on the type of malfunction, an interim measure is
available to start the hybrid system. ( P. 642)
● There is a possibility that the t emperature of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) is extremely low (approximately below -22°F
[-30°C]). ( P. 91, 242)
*: It may not be possible to shift the shift position other than P.
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
● The 12-volt battery may be discharged. ( P. 646)
● The 12-volt battery terminal connections may be loose or corrod ed.
( P. 520)
Reasons for the hybrid system not starting vary depending on
the situation. Check the followi ng and perform the appropriate
procedure:
The hybrid system will not start even though the correct starting
procedure is being followed. ( P. 239)
The interior lights and headlights are dim, or the horn does no t
sound or sounds at a low volume.

Engine oil selection
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in your Toyota vehicle. Use
Toyota approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” or equivalent to sat isfy
the following grade and viscosity.
Oil grade:
ILSAC GF-6B multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity:
SAE 0W-16
SAE 0W-16 is the best choice
for good fuel economy and
good starting in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-16 is not available,
SAE 0W-20 oil may be used.
However, it must be replaced
with SAE 0W-16 at the next oil
change.
Oil viscosity (0W-16 is expl ained here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-16 indicates the characteristic of the oil which allows cold startability. Oils wi th a lower value before the W allow
for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.
• The 16 in 0W-16 indicates the vi scosity characteristic of the oil
when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher visco sity
(one with a higher value) may be better suited if the vehicle i s
operated at high speeds, or un der extreme load conditions.

Fuel information
■Gasoline quality
In very few cases, driveability problems may be caused by the b rand of gaso-
line you are using. If driveability problems persist, try changing the brand of
gasoline. If this does not correct the problem, consult your To yota dealer.
■ Recommendation of the use of gaso line containing detergent additives
● Toyota recommends the use of gasoline that contains detergent a dditives to
avoid the build-up of engine deposits.
● All gasoline sold in the U.S.A. contains minimum detergent addi tives to
clean and/or keep clean intake systems, per EPA’s lowest additi ves concen-
tration program.
● Toyota strongly recommends the use of Top Tier Detergent Gasoli ne. For
more information on Top Tier Detergent Gasoline and a list of marketers,
please go to the official website www.toptiergas.com.
You must only use unleaded gasoline.
Select octane rating 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher.
Use of unleaded gasoline with an octane rating lower than 87
may result in engine knocking. Persistent knocking can lead to
engine damage.
At minimum, the gasoline you use should meet the specifications of
ASTM D4814 in the U.S.A..
