WARNING
■Cautions while setting up the display
As the hybrid system needs to be operating during setting up the display,
ensure that the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate vent ilation. In a
closed area such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful c arbon
monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or
a serious health hazard.
NOTICE

●The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
● If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin an d a message
will be displayed on the multi-information display when the hyb rid system
stops.
● As the electronic key always receives radio waves, the battery will become

cate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery
when necessary. ( P. 555)
• The smart key system or the wireless remote control does not o perate.

• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by yourself ( P. 555). However, as there is a
danger that the electronic key may be damaged, it is recommende d that
replacement is carried out by your Toyota dealer.
● To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 3 ft.
(1 m) of the following electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
