heavy traffic or dusty areas, the air
intake vents may need to be
cleaned more regularly. For details,
refer to “Scheduled Maintenance
Guide” or “Owner’s Manual Supple-
ment”.
■Cleaning the air intake vents
●Dust in the air in take vents may
interfere with the cooling of the
hybrid battery (traction battery). If
charging/discharging of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) becomes
limited, the distance that the vehi-
cle can be driven using the electric motor (traction motor) may be
reduced and the fuel economy
may be reduced. Inspect and
clean the air intake vents periodi-
cally.
●Improper handling of the air intake
vent covers and filters may result
in damage to them. If you have
any concerns about cleaning the
filters, contact your Toyota dealer.
■If “Maintenance Required for
Traction Battery Cooling Parts
See Owner’s Manual” is shown
on the multi-information display
●If this warning message is shown
on the multi-information display,
remove the air intake vent covers
and clean the filters. (
P.441)
●After cleaning the air intake vents,
start the hybrid system and check
that the warning message is no
longer shown.
It may take approximately 20 min-
utes after the hybrid system is
started until the warning message
disappears. If the warning mes-
sage does not disappear, have
the vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer.
WARNING
■When cleaning the air intake
vents
●Do not use water or other liq-
uids to clean the air intake

be pushed into the air intake
vents, which may affect the per-
formance of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) and cause a
malfunction.
■To prevent damage to the

and covers to their original posi-
tions after cleaning.
●Do not install anything to the air
intake vents other than the
exclusive filters for this vehicle
or use the vehicle without the fil-
ters installed.
