as natural air leaks and tire inflation
pressure changes caused by tem-
perature. In this case, adjusting the
tire inflation pressure will turn off the
warning light (after a few minutes).
■Conditions that the tire pres-
sure warning system may not
function properly
 P. 4 7 4
WARNING
■If both the ABS and the brake
system warning lights remain
on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place
immediately and contact your Toy-
ota dealer.
The vehicle will become
extremely unstable during brak-
ing, and the ABS system may fail,
which could cause an accident
resulting in death or serious injury.
■When the electric power
steering system warning light
comes on
When the light comes on yellow,
the assist to the power steering is
restricted. When the light comes
on red, the assist to the power
steering is lost and handling oper-
ations of the steering wheel
become extremely heavy.
When steering wheel operations
are heavier than usual, grip the
steering wheel firmly and operate
it using more force than usual.
■If the tire pressure warning
light comes on
Be sure to observe the following
precautions.
Failure to do so could cause a
loss of vehicle control and result
in death or serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place
as soon as possible. Adjust the
tire inflation pressure immedi-
ately.
●If the tire pressure warning light
comes on even after tire infla-
tion pressure adjustment, it is
probable that you have a flat
tire. Check the tires. If a tire is
flat, repair the flat tire by using
emergency tire puncture repair
kit.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and
braking.
If the vehicle tires deteriorate,
you could lose control of the
steering wheel or the brakes.
■If a blowout or sudden air
leakage should occur
The tire pressure warning system
may not activate immediately.
■Maintenance of the tires
Each tire, includi ng the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufac-
turer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label (tire and
load information label). (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label [tire and load infor-
mation label], you should deter-
mine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)

depending on the type of mal-
function, an interim measure
is available to start the EV
system. (P.538)
 There is a possibility that the
temperature of the traction
battery is extremely low
(approximately below -22°F [-
30°C]). ( P.77, 232)
*: It may not be possible to shift the
shift position from P
One of the following may be the
cause of the problem:
 The 12-volt battery may be
discharged. ( P.541)
 The 12-volt battery terminal
connections may be loose or
corroded. ( P.468)
One of the following may be the
cause of the problem:
 The 12-volt battery may be
discharged. ( P.541)
 One or both of the 12-volt bat-
tery terminals may be discon-
nected. ( P.468)
Contact your Toyota dealer if the problem cannot be repaired, or if
repair procedures are unknown.
When the EV system does not
start, the following steps can be
used as an interim measure to
start the EV system if the power
switch is functioning normally.
Do not use this starting proce-
dure except in cases of emer-
gency.
1
Set the parking brake.
2 Turn the power switch to
ACC.
*
3Press and hold the power
switch for about 15 seconds
while depressing the brake
pedal firmly.
After pressing the power switch for
a while, a message regarding 12-
volt battery control will be dis-
played, however continuing press-
ing the switch.
Even if the EV system can be
started using the above steps,
the system may be malfunction-
ing. Have the vehicle inspected
by your Toyota dealer.
*: Setting can be customized.

When trouble arises
6 Open and close any of the
doors of your vehicle with the
power switch OFF.
7 Maintain the engine speed of
the second vehicle and start
the EV system of your vehi-
cle by turning the power
switch to ON.
8 Make sure the “READY” indi-
cator comes on. If the indica-
tor light does not come on,
contact your Toyota dealer.
9 Once the EV system has
started, remove the jumper
cables in the exact reverse
order from which they were
connected.
10 Close the positive (+) battery
terminal cover.
Once the EV system starts,
have the vehicle inspected at
your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible.
■Starting the EV system when
the 12-volt battery is dis-
charged
The EV system cannot be started by
push-starting.
■To prevent 12-volt battery dis-
charge
●Turn off the headlights, the air
conditioning system, the audio
system, etc. while the EV system
is off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electri-
cal components when the vehicle
is running at a low speed for an
extended period, such as in heavy
traffic.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt
battery will discha rge gradually even
when the vehicle i s not in use, due
to natural dischar ge and the drain-
ing effects of certain electrical appli-
ances. If the vehicle is left for a long
time, the 12-volt battery may dis-
charge, and the EV system may be
unable to start. (The 12-volt battery
recharges automatically while the
EV system is operating.)
■When the 12-volt battery is
removed or discharged
●Information stored in the ECU is
cleared. When the 12-volt battery
is depleted, have the vehicle
inspected at your Toyota dealer.
●In some cases, it may not be pos-
sible to unlock the doors using the
smart key system when the 12-
volt battery is discharged. Use the
wireless remote c ontrol or the
mechanical key to lock or unlock
the doors.
●The EV system may not start on
the first attempt a fter the 12-volt
battery has recharged but will start
normally after the second attempt.
This is not a malfunction.
●The power switch mode is memo-
rized by the vehicle. When the 12-
volt battery is reconnected, the
system will return to the mode it
was in before the 12-volt battery
was discharged. Before discon-
necting the 12-volt battery, turn
the power switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the
power switch was in before the
12-volt battery discharged, be
especially careful when recon-
necting the 12-volt battery.
●If the 12-volt battery discharges, it
may not be possible to shift the
shift position to o ther positions. In
this case, the vehicle cannot be
towed without lifting both front
wheels because the front wheels
will be locked.
●The power back door (if equipped)
