■EV system does not start after DC charging
The temperature of the traction bat-
tery is extremely high or low.
DC charging may not be performed
in extremely high or extremely low
temperature environments. Charge
the traction batte ry after the tem-
perature h as been stabilized.
Error is detected by the DC charger
or vehicle’s system check.
There may be a malfunction with the
DC charger or charging system.
• If there is a mal function with the
DC charger, conta ct the facility
manager.
• If there is not a malfunction with
the DC charger, there may be a
malfunction in the system. Contact
your Toyota dealer.
• If the EV system can not be started, contact your Toyota dealer.
High temperature of charging related
parts
If the temperature of charging related
parts is high, DC charging may not
be possible. Wait for a while and
then charge again.
The electrical components such as
the air conditioning system stop
operating while the traction battery is
approximately fully charged.Keep the electrical components such
as the air conditioning system in the
OFF state, and t hen perform the
charging procedure again.

nected to vehicleBefore using the charging schedule,
connect the AC charging connector.
AC charging connector was con-
nected after set time
Connect the AC charging connector
before the time set in “Start”.
When the charging mode is set to
“Start-Stop”, the traction battery will

“Charge Now” is set to on
When charging according to the
charging schedule, set “Charge
Now” to off. ( P.124, 128)
Charging schedule is set to offCheck that charging schedule is not
set to off. ( P. 1 1 8 )
AC charging connector was removed
and reinserted while charging indica-
tor of the charging port was flashing
If the AC charging connector is
removed and reinserted while the
charging indicator is flashing, the
charging schedule is canceled. Tem-
porarily remove the AC charging
connector, and then reconnect it.
The Remote Air Conditioning Sys-
tem was operated
When the Remote Air Conditioning
System is operated, the system will
start charging, even if the charging
schedule is registered. To carry out
charging using the charging sched-
ule, stop the Remote Air Condition-
ing System, and then reconnect the
AC charging connector.
Outside temperature is low and trac-
tion battery warming control ( P. 9 9 )
operated
 When traction battery warming
control operates, the charging
schedules are ignored and
charging starts. In order to protect
the traction battery , allow charging
to continue.
 After removing and installing the
12-volt battery, the charging
schedule setting may become
invalid due to the in itial setting of
the traction battery warming con-
trol system even wh en the outside
temperature is not low.
In this case, after a few runs, the
system’s initial settings will be
completed and the charging
schedule settings will take effect
when the outside temperature is
not low.
