Energy economy mode
This system manages the duration of use of certain functions, in order to conserve a sufficient level of charge in the battery with the ignition off.After switching off the engine and for a maximum cumulative period of around 30 minutes, you can continue to use functions such as the audio and telematic system, dipped beam headlamps or courtesy lamps.
Selecting the mode
A confirmation message is displayed when energy economy mode is entered, and the active functions are placed on standby.
NOTIC E
If a telephone call is in progress at the time, it will be maintained for around 10 minutes via the audio system’s hands-free system.
Exiting the mode
These functions are automatically reactivated the next time the vehicle is used.To restore the use of these functions immediately, start the engine and let it run:– For less than 10 minutes, to use the equipment for approximately 5 minutes.– For more than 10 minutes, to use the equipment for approximately 30 minutes.
Let the engine run for the specified duration to ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.To recharge the battery, avoid repeatedly or continuously restarting the engine.
WARNI NG
A flat battery prevents the engine from starting.For more information on the 12 V battery,
refer to the corresponding section.
Load reduction mode
This system manages the use of certain functions according to the level of charge remaining in the battery.When the vehicle is being driven, the load reduction function temporarily deactivates certain functions, such as the air conditioning and the heated rear screen.The deactivated functions are reactivated automatically as soon as conditions permit.

Advice on care and
maintenance
General recommendations
Observe the following recommendations to avoid damaging the vehicle.
Exterior
WARNI NG
Never use a high-pressure jet wash in the engine compartment - risk of damaging the electrical components!Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or extremely cold conditions.
NOTIC E
When washing the vehicle at an automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure to lock the doors and, depending on version, remove the electronic key.When using a pressure washer, hold the lance at least 30 cm from the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas containing chipped paint, sensors or seals).Promptly clean up any stains containing chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's paint (including tree resin, bird droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar).If justified by the environment, clean the vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits (in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas) and mud/salts (in wet or cold areas). These substances can be highly corrosive.Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for advice on removing stubborn stains requiring special products (such as tar
or insect removers).Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

Starting using another
battery
If the vehicle's battery is flat, the engine can be started using a backup battery (either external or from another vehicle) and jump leads or using a battery booster.
WARNI NG
Never start the engine by connecting a battery charger.Never use a 24 V or higher battery booster.Check beforehand that the backup battery has a nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity at least equal to that of the discharged battery.The two vehicles must not be in contact with each other.Switch off all electricity-consuming equipment on both vehicles (audio system, wipers, lighting, etc.).Make sure that the jump leads are well away from the engine’s moving parts (fan, belt, etc.).Do not disconnect the (+) terminal while the engine is running.
► Connect the red cable to the (+) terminal of flat battery A (at the metal elbow), then to the (+) terminal of the backup battery B or of the booster.► Connect one end of the green or black cable to the (-) terminal of the backup battery B or of the booster (or to an earth point on the assisting vehicle).► Connect the other end of the green or black cable to the earth point C.► Start the engine on the assisting vehicle and leave it running for a few minutes.► Operate the starter on the broken down vehicle and let the engine run.If the engine does not start immediately, switch off the ignition and wait a few moments before trying again.► Wait for it to return to idle.► Disconnect the jump leads in reverse order.► Allow the engine to run for at least 30 minutes, with the vehicle stationary, so that the battery reaches an adequate state of charge.
WARNI NG
Driving immediately without having reached a sufficient level of charge may affect some of the vehicle's functionalities (e.g. Stop & Start).
WARNI NG
To disconnect, proceed in reverse order.

Charging the battery using a
battery charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is essential to maintain an adequate state of charge.In some circumstances, it may be necessary to charge the battery:– using the vehicle mainly for short journeys;– if the vehicle is to be taken off the road for several weeks.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
WARNI NG
To charge the vehicle's battery yourself, use only a charger compatible with lead-acid batteries with a nominal voltage of 12 V.
WARNI NG
Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the charger.Never reverse polarities.
NOTIC E
It is not necessary to disconnect the battery.
► Switch off the ignition.
► Switch off all electrical consumers (audio system, lighting, wipers, etc.).
► Switch off charger B before connecting the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any dangerous sparks.► Ensure that the charger cables are in good condition.► Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if the vehicle has one.► Connect the cables of charger B as follows:• the positive (+) red cable to the (+) terminal of battery A,
• the negative (-) black cable to earth point C on the vehicle.► At the end of the charging operation, switch off charger B before disconnecting the cables from battery A.
WARNI NG
If this label is present, use only a 12 V charger to avoid causing irreversible damage to the electrical components.

Frozen batteryNever try to charge a frozen battery - risk of explosion!If the battery has frozen, have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer who will verify that the internal components have not been damaged and that the case has not cracked, which would mean a risk of toxic and corrosive acid leaking.
240
Disconnecting/reconnecting
the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state of charge for starting the engine, we recommend disconnecting the battery if the vehicle is to be unused for an extended period.Before disconnecting the battery:► Close all openings (doors, boot, windows, roof).► Switch off all electricity-consuming devices (audio system, wipers, lamps, etc.).► Switch off the ignition and wait for 4 minutes.After accessing the battery, it is only necessary to disconnect the (+) terminal.
Quick-release terminal clamp
Disconnecting the (+) terminal
► Depending on equipment, lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal.► Raise lever A fully to release clamp B.
► Remove clamp B by lifting it off.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
► Raise lever A fully.► Refit open clamp B on the (+) terminal.► Push clamp B fully down.► Lower lever A to lock clamp B.► Depending on equipment, lower the plastic cover on the (+) terminal.
WARNI NG
Do not force the lever when pressing on it, as if the clamp is not positioned correctly, locking will then not be possible. Start the procedure again.
Following reconnection
After reconnecting the battery, turn on the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting the engine, to enable the electronic systems to initialise.If minor problems nevertheless persist following this operation, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.Referring to the relevant section, reinitialise certain equipment:– Remote control key or electronic key (depending on version).– Electric windows.– Date and time.– Preset radio stations.
NOTIC E
The Stop & Start system may not be operational during the trip following the first engine start.In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous period of immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which depends on the exterior temperature and the state of charge of the battery (up to about 8 hours).
