■Emergency tire puncture repair 
kit
●The sealant stored in the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit can 
be used only once to temporarily 
repair a single tire. If the sealant in 
the bottle and other parts of the kit 
have been used and need to be 
replaced, contact your Toyota 
dealer.
●The compressor can be used 
repeatedly.
●The sealant can be used when the 
outside temperature is from -40°F 
(-40°C) to 140°F (60°C).
●The kit is exclusi vely designed for 
size and type of ti res originally 
installed on your  vehicle. Do not 
use it for tires tha t a different size 
than the original ones, or for any 
other purposes.
●If the sealant gets on your clothes, 
it may stain.
●If the sealant adhe res to a wheel 
or the surface of the vehicle body, 
the stain may not be removable if 
it is not cleaned at once. Immedi-
ately wipe away the sealant with a 
wet cloth.
●During operation of the repair kit, 
a loud operation noise is pro-
duced. This does not indicate a 
malfunction.
●Do not use to check or to adjust 
the tire pressure.
■Note for checking the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
●Check the sealant expiry date 
occasionally. The expiry date is 
shown on the bottle.
●Do not use sealant whose expiry 
date has already passed. Other-
wise, repairs conducted using the 
emergency tire puncture repair kit 
may not be performed properly.
●The sealant has a limited life 
span. The expiry date is marked 
on the bottle. The sealant should

WARNING
■If you have a flat tire
Driving even a short distance with 
a flat tire can damage the tire and 
the wheel beyond repair.
Driving with a flat tire may cause a 
circumferential groove on the side 
wall. In such a case, the tire may 
explode when using a repair kit.
■Caution while driving
●Store the repair kit in the lug-
gage compartment. Injuries may 
result in the event of an acci-
dent or sudden braking.
●The repair kit is exclusively only 
for your vehicle. Do not use 
repair kit on other vehicles, 
which could lead to an accident 
causing death or serious injury.
●Do not use repair kit for tires 
that are different size than the 
original ones, or for any other 
purpose. If the tires have not 
been completely repaired, it 
could lead to an accident caus-
ing death or serious injury.
■Precautions for use of the 
sealant
●Ingesting the sealant is hazard-
ous to your health. If you ingest 
sealant, consume as much 
water as possible, then immedi-
ately consult a doctor.
●If sealant gets in eyes or 
adheres to skin, immediately 
wash it off with water. If discom-
fort persists, consult a doctor.

When trouble arises
the vehicle ma y get dirty.
24Store the bottle in the lug-
gage compartment while it is 
connected to the compres-
sor.
25 Taking precautions to avoid 
sudden braking, sudden 
acceleration and sharp turns, 
drive carefully at under 50 
mph (80 km/h) to the nearest 
Toyota dealer that is less 
than 62 miles (100 km) away 
for tire repair or replacement.
For repair and replacement of a tire 
or disposal of the tire puncture 
repair kit, contact your Toyota 
dealer.
When having the tire repaired or 
replaced, make sure to tell the Toy-
ota dealer that the sealant is 
injected.
■If the tire is i nflated to more 
than the specified air pressure
1 Disconnect the hose from the 
valve.
2 Install the air release cap to the 
end of the hose and push the 
protrusion on the air release cap 
into the valve to let some air out. 3
Disconnect the hose from the 
valve, remove the air release cap 
from the hose and then recon-
nect the hose.
4 Turn the compressor switch on 
and wait for seve ral seconds, 
then turn it off. Check that the air 
pressure indicator shows the 
specified air pressure is reached. 
(  P.555)
If the air pressure is under the 
designated pressure, turn the 
compressor switch on again and 
repeat the inflation procedure 
until the specified  air pressure is 
reached.
■After a tire is re paired with the 
emergency tire puncture repair 
kit
●The tire pressure warning valve 
and transmitter should be 
replaced.
●Even if the tire inflation pressure is 
at the recommended level, the tire 
pressure warning light may come 
on/flash.
WARNING
■When fixing the flat tire
●Stop your vehicle in a safe and 
flat area.
●Do not touch the wheels or the 
area around the brakes immedi-
ately after the vehicle has been 
driven. After the vehicle has 
been driven, the wheels and the 
area around the brakes may be 
extremely hot. Touching these 
areas with hands, feet or other 
body parts may result in burns.

WARNING
●Connect the valve and hose 
securely with the tire installed 
on the vehicle.
If the hose is not properly con-
nected to the valve, air leakage 
may occur as sealant may be 
sprayed out.
●If the hose comes off the valve 
while inflating the tire, there is a 
risk that the hose will move 
abruptly due to air pressure.
●After inflation of the tire has 
completed, the sealant may 
splatter when the hose is dis-
connected or some air is let out 
of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure 
to repair the tire. If the proce-
dure is not followed, the sealant 
may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it 
is being repaired, as there is a 
chance of it bursting while the 
repair operation is being per-
formed. If you notice any cracks 
or deformation of the tire, turn 
off the compressor switch and 
stop the repair operation imme-
diately.
●The repair kit may overheat if 
operated for a long period of 
time. Do not operate the com-
pressor continuously for more 
than 40 minutes.
●Parts of the repair kit become 
hot during operation. Be careful 
handling the repair kit during 
and after operation. Do not 
touch the metal part connecting 
the bottle and the compressor. It 
will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed 
warning sticker to an area other 
than the one indicated. If the 
sticker is attached to an area 
where an SRS airbag is located, 
such as the pad of the steering 
wheel, it may prevent the SRS 
air bag from operating properly.
■Driving to spread the liquid 
sealant evenly
Observe the following precautions 
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a 
loss of vehicle control and cause 
death or serious injury.
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a 
low speed. Be especially careful 
when turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle does not drive 
straight or you feel a pull 
through the steering wheel, stop 
the vehicle and check the fol-
lowing:
• Tire condition. The tire may  have separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire  inflation pressure is 19 psi (130 
kPa, 1.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar) or less, 
the tire may be severely dam-
aged.
NOTICE
■When performing an emer-
gency repair
●Perform the emergency repair 
without removing the nail or 
screw that has punctured the 
tread of the tire. If the object 
that has punctur ed the tire is 
removed, repair by the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit 
may not be possible.
●The repair kit is not waterproof. 
Make sure that the repair kit is 
not exposed to water, such as 
when it is being used in the rain.

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)

WARNING
●Keep hands and clothing (espe-
cially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) 
away from the fan. Failure to do 
so may cause the hands or 
clothing to be caught, resulting 
in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reser-
voir cap while the EV system 
and radiator are hot. High tem-
perature steam or coolant could 
spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding coolant
Add coolant slowly after the EV 
system has cooled down suffi-
ciently. Adding cool coolant to a 
hot EV system too quickly can 
cause damage to the EV system.
■To prevent damage to the 
cooling system
Observe the following precau-
tions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant 
with foreign matter (such as 
sand or dust, etc.).
●Do not use water  or any other 
coolant when refilling coolant. 
Also, do not use any additive 
agents for the coolant.
If  the vehicle becomes 
stuck
Carry out the following pro-
cedures if the tires spin or 
the vehicle becomes stuck 
in mud, dirt or snow:
