WARNING
The engine compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that may move suddenly, become hot, or
become electrically energized. To avoid death or serious injury, observe the following precautions.
■When working on the engine compartment
●Make sure that the “ACCESSORY” or “IGNITION ON” on the multi-information display and the
“READY” indicator are both off.

Maintenance and care
WARNING
●Keep hands, clothing and tools away from the moving fan.
●Be careful not to touch the engine, power control unit, radiator, exhaust
manifold, etc. right after driving as they may be hot. Oil and other flu-ids may also be hot.
●Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper and
rags, in the engine compartment.
●Do not smoke, cause sparks or
expose an open flame to fuel or 12- volt battery. Fuel and 12-volt battery fumes are flammable.
●Be extremely cautious when work-ing on the 12-volt battery. It con-
tains poisonous and corrosive sulfuric acid.
●Take care because brake fluid can harm your hands or eyes and dam-age painted surfaces. If fluid gets
on your hands or in your eyes, flush the affected area with clean water immediately.
If you still experience discomfort, consult a doctor.
■When working near the electric cooling fan or radiator grille
Be sure the power switch is OFF.
With the power switch in ON, the electric cooling fan may automatically start to run if the air conditioning is on
and/or the coolant temperature is high. ( P.329)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc.
from getting in your eyes.
NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner fil- ter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear due to dirt in the air.
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to
go down slightly as the brake pads wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refill- ing, it may indicate a serious problem.

■Coolant selection
Only use “Toyota Super Long Life Cool-
ant” 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.
“Toyota Super Long Life Coolant” is a mixture of 50% coolant and 50% deion-
ized water. (Minimum temperature: - 35°C [-31°F])
For more details about coolant, contact
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■If the coolant level drops within a
short time of replenishing
Visually check the radiator, hoses, engine/power control unit coolant reser-
voir caps, drain cock and water pump. If you cannot find a leak, have any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer, test the cap and check for leaks in the cooling system.
WARNING
■When the hybrid system is hot
Do not remove the engine/power con-
trol unit coolant reservoir caps.
The cooling system may be under pressure and may spray hot coolant 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 mix-
ture of water and antifreeze must be used to provide proper lubrication, corrosion protection and cooling. Be
sure to read the antifreeze or coolant label.

Maintenance and care
Check the radiator and condenser
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 any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
If the washer fluid level is at “1/2”,
add washer fluid.
NOTICE
■If you spill coolant
Be sure to wash it off with water to
prevent it from damaging parts or paint.
Checking the radiator and
condenser
WARNING
■When the hybrid system is hot
Do not touch the radiator or con-
denser as they may be hot and cause serious injuries, such as burns.
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 engine,
etc.
NOTICE
■Do not use any fluid other than
washer fluid
Do not use soapy water or engine antifreeze instead of washer fluid.
Doing so may cause streaking on the vehicle’s painted surfaces, as well as damaging the pump leading to prob-
lems of the washer fluid not spraying.
■Diluting washer fluid
Dilute washer fluid with water as nec- essary.Refer to the freezing temperatures
listed on the label of the washer fluid bottle.

When trouble arises
3After the hybrid system has
cooled down sufficiently, inspect
the hoses and radiator core
(radiator) for any leaks.
Radiator
Cooling fan
If a large amount of coolant leaks,
immediately contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
4 The coolant level is satisfactory
if it is between the “F” and “L”
lines on the reservoir.
Reservoir
“F” line
“L” line
5 Add coolant if necessary.
Water can be used in an emergency if
coolant is unavailable.
6 Start the hybrid system and turn
the air conditioning system on to
check that the radiator cooling
fan operates and to check for
coolant leaks from the radiator
or hoses.
The fan operates when the air condi- tioning system is turned on immediately
after a cold start. Confirm that the fan is operating by checking the fan sound and air flow. If it is difficult to check
these, turn the air conditioning system on and off repeatedly. (The fan may not operate in freezing temperatures.)
7 If the fan is not operating: Stop
the hybrid system immediately
and contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
If the fan is operating: Have the
vehicle inspected at the nearest
any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer.
If “Hybrid System Overheated
Output Power Reduced” is
shown on the multi-information
display
1 Stop the vehicle in a safe place.

If water was added in an emergency, have the vehicle inspected at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
6 After stopping the hybrid system
and waiting for 5 minutes or
more, start the hybrid system
again and check for the multi-
information display.
If the message does not disap-
pear: Stop the hybrid system
and contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
If the message is not displayed:
The hybrid system temperature
has dropped and the vehicle
may be driven normally.
However, if the message appears again
frequently, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNING
■When inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns.

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
1Stop the hybrid system. Set the
parking brake and shift the shift
lever to P.
2 Remove the mud, snow or sand
from around the front wheels.
3 Place wood, stones or some
other material under the front
wheels to help provide traction.
4 Restart the hybrid system.
5 Shift the shift lever to D or R and
release the parking brake. Then,
while exercising caution,
depress the accelerator pedal.
■When it is difficult to free the vehi-
cle
Press the switch to turn off TRC.
A message will be shown on the multi-
information display.
WARNING
●If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood
until the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot.
●After the hybrid system has been turned off, check that the “READY”
indicator is off. When the hybrid system is operating, the gasoline engine may automatically start, or
the cooling fan may suddenly oper- ate even if the gasoline engine stops. Do not touch or approach
rotating parts such as the fan, which may lead to fingers or cloth-ing (especially a tie, a scarf or a
muffler) getting caught, resulting in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reservoir caps while the hybrid system and radiator are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power con-trol unit coolant
Add coolant slowly after the hybrid
system has cooled down sufficiently. Adding cool coolant to a hot hybrid system too quickly can cause dam-
age to the hybrid system.
■To prevent damage to the cooling
system
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or dust etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.
If the vehicle becomes
stuck
Carry out the following proce-
dures if the tires spin or the
vehicle becomes stuck in mud,
dirt or snow:
