WARNING
■If the hybrid system has to be turned off while driving
●Power assist for the steering wheel
will be lost, making the steering wheel heavier to turn. Decelerate as much as possible before turning
off the hybrid system.
●Vehicles without a smart entry &
start system: Never attempt to remove the key, as doing so will lock the steering wheel.

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
7-2.Ste ps to take in an emerg ency
If your vehicle needs to
be towed
If towing is necessary, we rec-
ommend having your vehicle
towed by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable
repairer or commercial towing
service, using a wheel-lift type
truck or flatbed truck.
Use a safety chain system for
all towing, and abide by all
state/provincial and local laws.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
■When towing the vehicle
Be sure to transport the vehicle with the front wheels raised or with all four wheels raised off the ground. If the
vehicle is towed with the front wheels contacting the ground, the drivetrain and related parts may be damaged or
electricity generated by the operation of the motor may cause a fire to occur depending on the nature of the dam-
age or malfunction.
■While towing
●When towing using cables or chains, avoid sudden starts, etc.
which place excessive stress on the towing eyelets, cables or chains. The towing eyelets, cables or
chains may become damaged, bro- ken debris may hit people, and cause serious damage.
●Do not turn the power switch off.There is a possibility that the steer-
ing wheel is locked and cannot be operated.
■Installing towing eyelets to the vehicle
Make sure that towing eyelets are
installed securely. If not securely installed, towing eye-lets may come loose during towing.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing using a wheel-lift type truck
●Do not tow the vehicle from the rear when the power switch is off. The steering lock mechanism is not
strong enough to hold the front wheels straight.
●When raising the vehicle, ensure adequate ground clearance for tow-ing at the opposite end of the raised
vehicle. Without adequate clear- ance, the vehicle could be dam-aged while being towed.
■To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing with a sling-type
truck
Do not tow with a sling-type truck, either from the front or rear.
■To prevent damage to the vehicle during emergency towing
Do not secure cables or chains to the suspension components.

operation for more than 15 minutes and charge the 12-volt battery.• When the display does not go off:

●If “Maintenance Required for Traction Battery Cooling Parts See Owner’s Manual” is shown, the filters may be
clogged, the air intake vents may be blocked, or there may be a gap in the duct. Therefore, perform the following
correction procedure. • If the air intake vents and filters of the hybrid battery (traction battery) are
dirty, perform the procedure on P.348 to clean them.• If the warning message is shown
when the air intake vents and filters of the hybrid battery (traction battery) are not dirty, have the vehicle inspected
by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-able repairer immediately.
If you have a flat tire
(vehicles with an emer-
gency tire puncture
repair kit)
Your vehicle is not equipped
with a spare tire, but instead is
equipped with an emergency
tire puncture repair kit.
A puncture caused by a nail or
screw passing through the tire
tread can be repaired tempo-
rarily using the emergency tire
puncture repair kit. (The kit
contains a bottle of sealant.
The sealant can be used only
once to temporarily repair one
tire without removing the nail
or screw from the tire.)
Depending on the damage, this
kit cannot be used to repair the
tire. ( P.387)
After temporarily repairing the
tire with the kit, have the tire
repaired or replaced by any
authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer. Repairs
conducted using the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
are only a temporary measure.
Have the tire repaired and
replaced as soon as possible.
