1-4. Hybrid system
For safety and security
WARNING
●If electric wires are exposed inside or outside your vehicle, an electric
shock may occur. Never touch exposed electric wires.
●If a fire occurs in the hybrid vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as possi-ble. Never use a fire extinguisher
that is not meant for electric fires. Using even a small amount of water may be dangerous.
●If your vehicle needs to be towed, do so with the 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.369)
●Carefully inspect the ground under the vehicle. If you find that liquid has leaked onto the ground, the fuel
system may have been damaged. Leave the vehicle as soon as possi-ble.
●Do not touch the battery if liquid is leaking from or adhering to it. If
electrolyte (carbonate ester-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.
●If 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 dam-aged, 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.
●Do not bring burning or high-tem-
perature items close to the electro- lyte. The electrolyte may ignite and cause a fire.
■Hybrid battery (traction battery)
●Your vehicle contains a sealed lith-
ium-ion battery.
●Never resell, hand over or modify
the hybrid battery. To prevent acci- dents, hybrid batteries that have been removed from a disposed
vehicle are collected through any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer. Do not dispose of the bat- tery yourself.
Unless the battery is properly col-
lected, the following may occur,
resulting in death or serious injury:
• The hybrid battery may be illegally disposed of or dumped, and it is
hazardous to the environment or someone may touch a high voltage part, resulting in an electric shock.
• The hybrid battery is intended to be used exclusively with your hybrid
vehicle. If the hybrid battery is used outside of your vehicle or modified in any way, accidents such as elec-
tric shock, heat generation, smoke generation, an explosion and elec-trolyte leakage may occur.

system is operating.
■ECO Accelerator Guidance ( P.105, 111)
Eco-friendly driving may be achieved
mo r e ea si l y b y s ta y in g w it h in t he zo n e o f Eco acceleration. Also, by staying within the zone of Eco acceleration, it will be
easier to obtain a good Eco score.
●When starting off:
Gradually depress the accelerator pedal
to stay within the zone of Eco accelera-
tion and accelerate to the desired
speed. By refraining from excessive
acceleration, a good eco start score will
be obtained.
●When driving:
After accelerating to the desired speed,
release the accelerator pedal and drive
at a stable speed while staying within
the zone of Eco acceleration. By staying
within the zone of Eco acceleration, a
good eco cruise score will be obtained.
●When stopping:
By starting to release the accelerator
pedal early before decelerating, a good
eco stop score will be obtained.
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observ- ing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 300 km (186 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 800 km (500 miles):
Do not tow a trailer. (vehicles with tow-
ing packages only)
●For the first 1000 km (621 miles): • Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration. • Do not drive at a constant speed for
extended periods.
■Operating your vehicle in a foreign
country
Comply with the relevant vehicle regis- tration laws and confirm the availability
of the correct fuel. ( P.422)
WARNING
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the “READY” indicator is illuminated. This
prevents the vehicle from creeping.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and accelerator pedals to avoid
depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accel-
erator pedal instead of the brake pedal will result in sudden accelera-tion that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to a diffi-
culty in operating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the vehicle only slightly. This allows you
to depress the brake and accelera- tor pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake pedal using your left foot may delay
response in an emergency, result- ing in an accident.
