For safety and security
There are an air intake vents
under the rear seat for the pur-
pose of cooling the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery). If the
vents becomes blocked, the
hybrid battery (traction battery)
input and output may be
reduced. When a certain level of impact is
detected by the impact sensor,
the emergency shut off system
blocks the high voltage current
and stops the fuel pump to mini-
mize the risk of electrocution
and fuel leakage. If the emer-
gency shut off system activates,
your vehicle will not restart. To
restart the hybrid system, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
A message is automatically dis-
played when a malfunction
occurs in the hybrid system or
an improper operation is
attempted.
If a warning message is shown
on the multi-information display,
NOTICE

NOTICE
■Hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) air intake vents
●Make sure that the air intake
vents are not blocked, such as
by a seat cover, plastic cover, or
luggage. If the vents are
blocked, the hybrid battery
(traction battery) input and out-
put may be restricted, possibly
leading to a malfunction.
●Clean the air intake vents regu-
larly to prevent the hybrid bat-
tery (traction b attery) from
overheating.
●Do not get water or foreign
materials in the air intake vents
as this may cause a short circuit
and damage the hybrid battery
(traction battery).
●A filter is installed to the air
intake vents. When the filter
remains noticeably dirty even
after cleaning the air intake
vents, filter cleaning or replace-
ment is recommended. Refer to

line. ( P.535)
■Coolant selection
Only use “Toyota Super Long Life
Coolant” or a similar high quality
ethylene glycol based non-silicate,
non-amine, non-nitrite, and non-
borate coolant with long-life hybrid
organic acid technology.
U.S.A.:“Toyota Super Long Life
Coolant” is a mixture of 50% coolant
and 50% deionized water.
(Minimum temperature: -31°F [-
35°C])
Canada: “Toyota Super Long Life
Coolant” is a mixture of 55% coolant
and 45% deionized water.
(Minimum temperature: -44°F [-
42°C])
For more details about coolant, con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
■If the coolant level drops within
a short time of replenishing
Visually check the radiator, hoses,
engine coolant reser voir cap, inter-
coolant reservoir cap, drain cock
and water pump.
If you cannot find a leak, have your
Toyota dealer test the cap and
check for leaks in the cooling sys-
tem.
Check the radiator, condenser
and intercooler radiators and
clear away any foreign objects.
If either of the above parts is
extremely dirty or you are not
sure of their condition, have
your vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer.
■Checking fluid level
The brake fluid level should be
between the “MAX” and “MIN”
WARNING
■When the hybrid system is
hot
Do not remove the coolant reser-
voir cap.
The cooling system may be under
pressure and may spray hot cool-
ant if the cap is removed, causing
serious injuries, such as burns.
NOTICE
■When adding coolant
Coolant is neither plain water nor
straight antifreeze. The correct
mixture of water and antifreeze
must be used to provide proper
lubrication, corrosion protection
and cooling. Be sure to read the
antifreeze or coolant label.
■If you spill coolant
Be sure to wash it off with water to
prevent it from damaging parts or
paint.
Checking the radiator,
condenser and inter-
cooler radiators
WARNING
■When the hybrid system is
hot
Do not touch the radiator, con-
denser or intercooler radiators or
condenser as they may be hot
and cause serious injuries, such
as burns.

■Brake fluid can absorb moisture
from the air
Excess moisture in the brake fluid
can cause a dangerous loss of brak-
ing efficiency. Use only newly
opened brake fluid.
If any washer does not work the
washer tank may be empty. Add
washer fluid.
WARNING
■When filling the reservoir

If you still experien ce discomfort,
see a doctor.
NOTICE
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level
to go down slight ly as the brake
pads wear out or when the fluid
level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent
refilling, there m ay be a serious
problem.
Adding the washer fluid
WARNING
■When adding washer fluid
Do not add washer fluid when the
hybrid system is hot or operating
as washer fluid contains alcohol
and may catch fire if spilled on the
hybrid system, etc.
NOTICE
■Do not use any fluid other
