WARNING
QWhen the Emergency Call may
not be made
OIt may not be possible to make Emergency Calls in any of the fol-
lowing situations. In such cases, report to emergency services pro-vider (112 system etc.) by other
means such as nearby public phones.
• Even when the vehicle is in the cel-
lular phone service area, it may be difficult to connect to the eCall con-trol center if the reception is poor or
the line is busy. In such cases, even though the system attempts to connect to the eCall control center,
you may not be able to connect to the eCall control center to make Emergency Calls and contact emer-
gency services.
• When the vehicle is out of the cellu-
lar phone service area, the Emer- gency Calls cannot be made.
• When any related equipment (such as the “SOS” button panel, indicator lights, microphone, speaker, DCM,
antenna, or any wires connecting the equipment) is malfunctioning, damaged or broken, the Emer-
gency Call cannot be made.
• During an Emergency Call, the sys-
tem makes repeated attempts to connect to the eCall control center. However, if it cannot connect to the
eCall control center due to poor radio wave reception, the system may not be able to connect to the
cellular network and the call may finish without connecting. The red indicator light will blink for approxi-
mately 30 seconds to indicate this disconnection.
OIf the 12-volt battery’s voltage decreases or there is a disconnec-tion, the system may not be able to
connect to the eCall control center.
QWhen the Emergency Call sys-
tem is replaced with a new one
The Emergency Call system should be registered. Contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
QFor your safety
OPlease drive safely.The function of this system is to
assist you in making the Emer- gency Call in case of accidents such as traffic accidents or sudden
medical emergencies, and it does not protect the driver or passengers in any way. Please drive safely and
fasten your seatbelts at all times for your safety.
OIn case of an emergency, make lives the top priority.
OIf you smell anything burning or other unusual smells, leave the vehicle and evacuate to a safe area
immediately.
OIf the airbags deploy when the sys-
tem is operating normally, the sys- tem makes emergency call. The system also makes emergency call
when the vehicle is struck from the rear or rolls over, even if the air-bags do not deploy.
OFor safety, do not make the Emer-gency Call while driving.
Making calls during driving may cause mishandling of the steering wheel, which may lead to unex-
pected accidents. Stop the vehicle and confirm the safety of your surroundings before
making the Emergency Call.

multi-information display when the switch is pressed.)
OWhen electricity needed for EV driving is not remaining (when in EV mode or AUTO EV/HV mode)
OWhen the traction battery is almost completely charged (hybrid battery
[traction battery] charge mode)
QWhen switching from EV mode to another mode using the switch
OAfter switching from EV mode to HV
mode or hybrid battery (traction bat- tery) charge mode and the power
switch is turned off, the system returns to EV mode the next time the
vehicle is started.*
OAfter switching from EV mode to
AUTO EV/HV mode and the power switch is turned off, the system does not return to EV mode the next time
the vehicle is started.*
*: If there is not enough charge remain-
ing in the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) to allow EV driving, the system
switches to HV mode.
QHybrid battery (traction battery) charge mode
OThe following may occur to protect the system, etc.• Cannot switch to hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) charge mode or cannot cancel it• Gasoline engine does not start or
stops even after switching to hybrid battery (traction battery) charge mode
OIf a load to the system is large, such as when the power consumption of the air conditioning system is large or
when the temperature of the engine coolant is high, it may take longer time than usual to charge using the hybrid
battery (traction battery) charge mode, or charging to the hybrid bat-tery (traction battery) may not be per-
formed.
QWhen in EV mode
In EV mode, EV driving (driving
using only the electric motor)* is
possible. However, depending on
the situation, EV driving may be
canceled and both gasoline engine
and electric motor are used
( P.90). Also, if a little electricity is
remaining in the hybrid battery
(traction battery), HV mode is auto-
matically selected. To drive in EV
mode long, observe the followings.
 Avoid sudden acceleration and
sudden deceleration, and be
sure to drive smoothly.

QRunning out of fuel
When the vehicle has run out of fuel and
the hybrid system cannot be started, refuel the vehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel level warn-
ing light ( P.515) go off. If there is only a small amount of fuel, the hybrid sys-tem may not be able to start. (The stan-
dard amount of fuel is about 8.8 L [2.3 gal., 1.9 Imp.gal.], when the vehicle is on a level surface. This value may vary
when the vehicle is on a slope. Add extra fuel when the vehicle is inclined.)
QElectromagnetic waves
OHigh voltage parts and cables on the Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicles incor-porate electromagnetic shielding, and
therefore emit approximately the same amount of electromagnetic waves as conventional gasoline pow-
ered vehicles or home electronic appliances.
OYour vehicle may cause sound inter-ference in some third party-produced radio parts.
QEffect of magnetic forces
If objects that generate strong magnetic forces, such as large speakers, are placed inside the luggage compartment
or installed nearby, the generated mag- netic forces may negatively affect the hybrid system.
QHybrid battery (traction battery)
(lithium-ion battery)
The hybrid battery (traction battery) has a limited service life.
The hybrid battery (traction battery) capacity (the ability to hold a charge) reduces with time and use in the same
way as other rechargeable batteries.
The extent at which capacity reduces changes drastically depending on the
environment (ambient temperature, etc.) and usage conditions, such as how the vehicle is driven and how the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) is charged. This is a natural characteristic of lithium-ion batteries, and is not a malfunction. Also,
even though the EV driving range becomes shorter when the hybrid bat-tery (traction battery) capacity reduces,
vehicle performance does not signifi- cantly become worse.
In order to reduce the possibility of the
capacity reducing, follow the directions listed on P.133, “Capacity reduction of the hybrid battery (traction battery)”.
QStarting the hybrid system in an
extremely cold environment
When the hybrid battery (traction bat- tery) is extremely cold (below approxi-
mately -30°C [-22°F]) under the influence of the outside temperature, it may not be possible to start the hybrid
system. In this case, try to start the hybrid system again after the tempera-ture of the hybrid battery increases due
to the outside temperature increase etc.
QDeclaration of conformity
This model conforms to hydrogen emis- sions according to regulation ECE100
(Battery electric vehicle safety).

WARNING
QHigh voltage precautions
The vehicle has high voltage DC and AC systems as well as a 12-volt sys-tem. DC and AC high voltage is very
dangerous and can cause severe burns and electric shock that may result in death or serious injury.

962-1. Plug-in hybrid system
WARNING
ONever touch, disassemble, remove or replace the high voltage parts,
cables or their connectors.
OThe hybrid system will become hot
after starting as the system uses high voltage. Be careful of both the high voltage and the high tempera-
ture, and always obey the caution labels attached to the vehicle.
ONever try to open the service plug access hole located in the luggage compartment. The service plug is
used only when the vehicle is ser- viced and is subject to high voltage.
QRoad accident cautions
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of death or serious
injury:
OPull your vehicle off the road, apply
the parking brake, shift the shift lever to P, and turn the hybrid sys-tem off.
ODo not touch the high voltage parts, cables and connectors.
OIf electric wires are exposed inside or outside your vehicle, an electric
shock may occur. Never touch exposed electric wires.
ODo not touch the battery if liquid is leaking from or adhering to it.If electrolyte (carbonic-based
organic electrolyte) from the hybrid battery (traction battery) comes into contact with the eyes or skin, it
could cause blindness or skin wounds. In the unlikely event that it comes into contact with the eyes or
skin, wash it off immediately with a large amount of water, and seek immediate medical attention.
OIf electrolyte is leaking from the hybrid battery (traction battery), do
not approach the vehicle. Even in the unlikely event that the hybrid battery (traction battery) is
damaged, the internal construction of the battery will prevent a large amount of electrolyte from leaking
out. However, any electrolyte that does leak out will give off a vapor. This vapor is an irritant to skin and
eyes and could cause acute poi- soning if inhaled.
ODo not bring burning or high-tem-perature items close to the electro-lyte. The electrolyte may ignite and
cause a fire.
OIf a fire occurs in the Plug in Hybrid
Electric Vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as possible. Never use a fire extinguisher that is not meant
for electric fires. Using even a small amount of water may be danger-ous.
OIf your vehicle needs to be towed, do so with front wheels raised. If the
wheels connected to the electric motor (traction motor) are on the ground when towing, the motor may
continue to generate electricity. This may cause a fire. ( P.503)
