Driving
Perform the following according
to the driving conditions:
Do not try to forcibly open a
window or move a wiper that
is frozen. Pour warm water
over the frozen area to melt
the ice. Wipe away the water
immediately to prevent it from
freezing.
 To ensure proper operation of
the climate control system
fan, remove any snow that
has accumulated on the air
inlet vents in front of the wind-
shield.
 Check for and remove any
excess ice or snow that may
have accumulated on the
exterior lights, vehicle’s roof,
chassis, around the tires or on
the brakes.
 Remove any snow or mud
from the bottom of your shoes
before getting in the vehicle. Accelerate the vehicle slowly,
keep a safe distance between
you and the vehicle ahead, and
drive at a reduced speed suit-
able to road conditions.

Park the vehicle and move
the shift lever to P without set-
ting the parking brake. The
parking brake may freeze up,
preventing it from being
released. If the vehicle is
parked without setting the
parking brake, make sure to
block the wheels.
Failure to do so may be dan-
gerous because it may cause
the vehicle to move unexpect-
edly, possibly leading to an
accident.
When the parking brake is in
automatic mode, release the
parking brake after shifting
the shift lever to P. ( P.287)
 If the vehicle is left parked
with the brakes damp in cold
temperatures, there is a pos-
sibility of the brakes freezing.
 If the vehicle is parked without
setting the parking brake,
confirm that the shift lever
cannot be moved out of P
*.
*: The shift lever will be locked if it is
attempted to be shifted from P to
any other position without
NOTICE
■Repairing or replacing snow
tires (vehicles with tire pres-
sure warning system)
Request repairs or replacement of
snow tires from your Toyota
dealer or legitimate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and
attachment of snow tires affects
the operation of the tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters.

Power outlet (12 VDC)

4266-4. Using the other interior features
usage of 1500 W at AC 120 V for
the power outlet (AC 120 V/1500
W). If electrical devices exceeding
the specified capacity are used,
the protection fun ction will activate
and prevent the power outlet from
being used.
●Some electrical devices with high
power consumptio n (such as an
electric griddle) may need to use
the power outlet solely. In this
case, do not use such a device
together with other devices.
●When power is supplied to multi-
ple devices, some devices may
not operate properly. In this case,
use the device solely.
●While the power outlet is used, a
large current may flow causing the
current power to exceed 1500 W
depending on the electrical device
used. In this situation, the protec-
tion function may activate and
stop the power supply function.
●Certain types of electrical devices
may disturb TV or radio by noises.
●Noise may be heard from the cool-
ing fan under the rear seats when
using the power outlet, but this is
not a malfunction.
■120 VAC Devices which may
not operate properly
The following electrical devices may
not operate properly even if their
total power consumption is less than
1500 W.
●Devices with high initial peak watt-
age
●Devices that require larger power
consumption than described in the
instruction manual of the electrical
device.
●Measuring devices that process
precise data
●Devices that require an extremely
stable power supply
●Devices that require a constant
power supply from the power out-
let, such as a device with a timer.
■Idling stop regulations
The engine starts automatically and
charging starts when the remaining
charge of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) decreases, etc. Some
states have regulations against
starting the engine while the vehicle
is parked or stopped. Check the reg-
ulations of the applicable local gov-
ernment, and use the power outlet
appropriately.
■When using the power outlet
while the vehicle is parked or
stopped
●The doors cannot be locked or
unlocked using the smart key sys-
tem.
●The doors cannot be locked or
unlocked using the electronic key.
The doors can on ly be locked or
unlocked using the mechanical
key ( P.532).
●A buzzer may sound or “Key Not
Detected Check Key Location”
may be displayed on the multi-
information display when the door
is opened or closed. Make sure to
carry the electronic key on your
person.
●When the surroundings are dark
while using the power outlet, the
headlights turn on automatically.
To turn off the lights, refer to
P.293. (except for Canada)
WARNING
■For safe use
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may lead to an

4286-4. Using the other interior features
WARNING
■Using the power outlet while
parked or stopped
●The power outlets are for use in
directly connecting electrical
devices such as lights. Do not
use the power outlets as gener-
ators to supply power to a
house, etc. To use this as a
power supply system for emer-
gency use (for example, as a
dedicated system that can be
connected to an external power
source, or as a system where
the supply circuit from the exter-
nal power source is separate
from the electric wiring from the
power company) for a house,
etc., consult with the manufac-
turer or dealer of this system.
●While using the power outlet,
make sure to securely engage
the parking brake and not to
shift the shift lever from P. The
vehicle may move unexpect-
edly, possibly resulting in an
accident.
●Do not leave the vehicle unat-
tended while using the power
outlet.
●Do not use the power outlet
during weather with a possibility
of lightning. If you notice light-
ning while using the power out-
let, stop using it.
●Do not use the p ower outlet if
the vehicle has a vehicle cover
installed.
●Be especially careful when
using an electrical device such
as a heater and sleeping in the
vehicle. The device may stop
unexpectedly due to operations
such as an autom atic stop of
the power supply system.
●Do not use while the vehicle is
stopped on a slope or other
slanted location. Do not move or
tilt the vehicle during use.
●Observe the fo llowing precau-
tions when using the power out-
let with the cord pulled outside
of the vehicle.
• Be careful of entry of rain or water. If the po wer outlet
becomes wet, dry the outlet
before using.
• Prevent the cord from being caught in the window or door
• Provide some slack in the cord and do not pu ll it too tight
• Make sure not to start the vehi-
cle
●Do not refuel or wash the vehi-
cle during use.
●Make sure that the hood is
closed. As the engine will start
automatically depending on the
condition of the vehicle, make
sure that nothing is left near or
contacting the exhaust pipes.
Also, do not put your head or
hands anywhere inside the
engine compartment, as the
cooling fan ma y operate sud-
denly. Keep hands and clothing
(especially a tie, scarf, etc.)
away from the fan as they may
get caught in a fan.
●Do not stop the vehicle near
objects which burn easily. If the
exhaust system is extremely
hot, it may cause a fire.
