WARNING
QWhen children are in the vehicle
Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehi-
cle or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with
the side windows, panoramic moon roof (if equipped) or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up
or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.
Child restraint systems
Before installing a child
restraint system in the vehicle,
there are precautions that need
to be observed, different types
of child restraint systems, as
well as installation methods,
etc., written in this manual.
 Use a child restraint system
when riding with a small child
that cannot properly use a seat
belt. For the child’s safety,
install the child restraint sys-
tem to a rear seat. Be sure to
follow the installation method
that is in the operation manual
enclosed with the restraint sys-
tem.
 The use of a Toyota genuine
child restraint system is rec-
ommended, as it is safer to
use in this vehicle. Toyota gen-
uine child restraint systems
are made specifically for
Toyota vehicles. They can be
purchased at a Toyota dealer.

patibility table] for recommended
WARNING
OOnly put a forward-facing child restraint system on the front seat
when unavoidable. When installing a forward-facing child restraint on the front passenger seat, move the
seat as far back as possible. Failing to do so may result in death or seri-ous injury if the airbags deploy
(inflate).
ODo not allow the child to lean
his/her head or any part of his/her body against the door or the area of the seat, front or rear pillars, or roof
side rails from which the SRS side airbags or SRS curtain shield air-bags deploy even if the child is
seated in the child restraint system. It is dangerous if the SRS side air-bags and curtain shield airbags
inflate, and the impact could cause death or serious injury to the child.
OWhen a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is positioned across the center
of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could
fall off the child’s shoulder.
OUse a child restraint system suit- able to the age and size of the child and install it to the rear seat.
OIf the driver’s seat interferes with the child restraint system and pre-
vents it from being attached cor- rectly, attach the child restraint system to the right-hand rear seat
(left-hand drive vehicles) or the left- hand rear seat (right-hand drive vehicles).
OAdjust the front passenger seat so that it does not interfere with the
child restraint system.

mode after leaving the freeway.
(P.86)
Turn the “A/C” switch off when it
is not needed. Doing so can help
reduce excessive electricity and
fuel consumption.
In summer: When the ambient tem-
perature is high, use the recirculated air
mode. Doing so will help to reduce the
burden on the air conditioning system
and reduce electricity and fuel con-
sumption as well.
In winter: Avoid excessive and unnec-
essary use of the heater. Usage of the
heated steering wheel (if equipped)
(P.416) and seat heaters (P.417)
are effective.
Using the Remote Air Condition-
ing System (P.414) while the
AC charging cable is connected
to the vehicle can reduce elec-
tricity consumption immediately
after starting off by operating air
conditioning mainly using elec-
tricity from an external power
source.
When setting the charging
schedule, setting the charging
mode to “Departure” and “Cli-
mate Prep” to on can reduce
electricity consumption immedi-
ately after starting off by operat-
ing air conditioning before
charging is completed. (P.143)Make sure to check the tire inflation
pressure frequently. If there is
improper tire inflation pressure in
the tires, the EV driving range will
become shorter, and fuel consump-
tion when in HV mode will increase.
Also, as snow tires can cause large
amounts of friction, their use on dry
roads can lead to increased fuel
and electricity consumption.
Carrying heavy luggage will lead to
poor fuel economy. Avoid carrying
unnecessary luggage. Installing a
large roof rack will also cause poor
fuel economy.
Since the gasoline engine starts up
and cuts out automatically, warm-
ing up is not necessary.

A pressure level 50 kPa (0.5 kgf/cm
2 or
bar, 7 psi) lower than the specified
value will cause a worsening of several
percentage points.
QWhen driving on highways,
use the EV/HV mode selection
switch to drive in HV mode
The power consumption will
increase significantly if the vehicle
is driven in EV mode on highways.
QDo not load unnecessary
objects in the vehicle
Driving with objects weighing 100
kg (220 lb.) in the vehicle will
worsen the electrical and fuel effi-
ciency by approximately 3%.
Air resistance also greatly affects
electrical and fuel efficiency.
Remove any exterior accessories
such as a roof luggage carrier when
they are not being used.
The running resistance of snow
tires is high and they will worsen
electrical and fuel efficiency.
Replace them with standard tires
as soon as they are no longer
needed.
QKnow your vehicle’s electrical
and fuel efficiency
If you know your vehicle’s daily
electrical and fuel efficiency, you
will understand the benefits of Eco
drive.
Use the Power Consumption/Fuel
Economy, ECO Accelerator Guid-
ance/“Eco Score” and other data
displayed on the multi-information display.
The following indicate that charging
has been carried out properly.
The charging indicator of the
charging port turns off
“Charging Complete” is dis-
played on the multi-information
display when a door is opened
with the power switch off
(P.130)
Regardless of the type of power
source or whether the charging
schedule function is used, charging
is completed if the above can be
confirmed.

1242-2. Charging
Ensure that the junction box is
equipped with a Residual Cur-
rent Circuit-Breaker (RCCB). If it
is not, have one installed by a
duly qualified professional.
When charging outdoors, make
sure to connect to a rain-tight
socket that is certified for outdoor
use. Checking Residual Current
Circuit-Breaker (RCCB) opera-
tion before its use is recom-
mended.
Check whether there are any
local EV-charging regulations in
place, and adhere to them.
*: For detailed information, consult an
electrician.
QThe charging environment
For safe charging, the following
charging equipment and settings are
recommended.
ORain-tight socket
When charging outdoors, connect the
plug to a rain-tight socket, and ensure
that the plug remains waterproof while
the plug is connected.
ODedicated circuit
• To reduce the risk of fire, connect only
to an at least 13A branch circuit with
an over-current protection.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock
when working with the plug, connect
to a socket that has a Residual Cur-
rent Circuit-Breaker (RCCB) installed.
ORemote switch
Allows the electricity from the socket to
be interrupted by operating a switch,
thus allowing safe removal and insertion
of the plug on rainy days.
QWhen your circuit breaker trips
during charging
The upper limit of the charging current
can be changed in “Vehicle Settings” on
the multi-information display.
