If a war ning light tur ns on or a war ning buzzer
sounds
Calmly perform the following actions if any of the warning
lights comes on or flashes. If a light comes on or flashes, but

4157-2. Steps to take in an emergency
7
When trouble arises
Water can be used in an emer-
gency if coolant is unavailable.
6Start the hybrid system and
turn the air conditioning sys-
tem on to check that the radi-
ator cooling fans operate and
to check for coolant leaks
from the radiator or hoses.
The fans operate w hen the air con-
ditioning system is turned on imme-
diately after a cold start. Confirm
that the fans are 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 fans may not
operate in freezing temperatures.)
7 If the fans are not operating:
Stop the hybrid system
immediately and contact your
Toyota dealer.
If the fans are operating:
Have the vehicle inspected at
the nearest Toyota dealer.
If “Hybrid System Over-
heated Output Power
Reduced” is shown on the
multi-information display
1 Stop the vehicle in a safe
place.
2 Stop the hybrid system and
carefully lift the hood. 3
After the hybrid system has
cooled down, inspect the
hoses and radiator core (radi-
ator) for any leaks.

Cooling fans
If a large amount of coolant leaks,
immediately contact your Toyota
dealer.
4The coolant level is satisfac-
tory if it is between the “MAX”
and “MIN” lines on the reser-
voir.

“MAX” line
“MIN” line
5 Add coolant if necessary.
If coolant is unavailable, use water
as an emergency measure, and
have the vehicle i nspected at your

4167-2. Steps to take in an emergency
Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
6After stopping the hybrid sys-
tem and waiting for 5 minutes
or more, start the hybrid sys-
tem again and check for the
multi-information display.
If the message does not dis-
appear: Stop the hybrid sys-
tem and contact your Toyota
dealer.
If the message is not dis-
played: The hybrid system
temperature has dropped
and the vehicle may be
driven normally.
However, if the message appears
again frequently, contact your Toy-
ota dealer.
WARNING
■When inspecting under the
hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precau-
tions. Failure to do so may result
in serious injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from
under the hood, do not open the
hood until the steam has sub-
sided. The engine compart-
ment 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 auto-
matically start, or the cooling
fans may suddenly operate
even if the gasoline engine
stops. Do not touch or approach
rotating parts such as the fan,
which may lead to fingers or
clothing (especially a tie, a scarf
or a muffler) getting caught,
resulting in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reser-
voir caps while the hybrid sys-
tem and radiator are hot.
High temperature steam or
coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power
control 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 damage to the hybrid
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 any coolant additive.

Vehicle specifications
Outside temperature
SAE 0W-16 is the best choice
for good fuel economy and good
starting in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-16 is not available,
SAE 0W-20 oil may be used.
However, it must be replaced
with SAE 0W-16 at the next oil
change.
Oil viscosity (0W-16 is explained
here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-16 indicates the characteristic of the oil
which allows cold startability.
Oils with a lower value before the W allow for easier starting
of the engine in cold weather.
• The 16 in 0W-16 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the
oil when the oil is at high tem-
perature. An oil with a higher
viscosity (one with a higher
value) may be better suited if
the vehicle is operated at high
speeds, or under extreme
load conditions.
How to read oil container label:
API registered marks is added
to some oil containers to help
you select the oil you should
use.

Use either o f the following:
 “Toyota Super Long Life Coolant”

non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic
acid technology
