■Operating conditions
The system will only operate if all of the following conditions are met:
●The shift position is in P.
●The power switch is off.
*
●All doors are closed.
●The hood is closed.
*: The Remote Air Conditioning System cannot be used for approximately 3
minutes and a half after the power switch is turned off.
■Remote Air Conditioning System automatic shut-off

●Any one of the operating conditions is not met
The system may also shut off if the charge level of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) drops to low.
■Conditions affecting operation
The system may not start in the following situations:
●The charge level of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is low
●The outside temperature is extremely low
●When the hybrid system is cool (for example, after being left for a long time
in low temperatures)
■Windshield defogger
When defogging the windshield using the Remote Air Conditioning System,
defogging may be insufficient due to the power being restricted more than
during normal air conditioning operation. Also, the outside of the windshield
may fog up due to the outside temperature, humidity or air conditioning set
temperature.
■Using the heater via the Remote Air Conditioning System
When the outside heat exchanger becomes frosted over, heating perfor-
mance may decline due to automatically switching to the frost removal opera-
tion.

ing. The emergency flashers flash to indicate that the doors have been locked

■The wireless charger can be operated when
The power switch is in ACCESSORY or ON mode.
■Usable portable devices
Qi standard wireless charge standard can be used on compatible devices.
However, not all Qi standard devices and compatibility are guaranteed.
Starting with mobile phones and smart phones, it is aimed for low power elec-
trically supplied portable devices of no more than 5W.
■When covers and accessories are attached to portable devices
Do not charge in situations where cover and accessories not able to handle
Qi are attached to the portable device. Depending on the type of cover and
accessory, it may not be possible to charge. When charging is not performed
even with the portable device placed on the charge area, remove the cover
and accessories.
■While charging, noise enters the AM radio
Turn off the wireless charger and confirm that the noise has decreased. If the
noise decreases, continuously pushing the power supply switch of the wire-
less charger for 2 seconds, the frequency of the charger can be changed and
the noise can be reduced.
Also, on that occasion, the operation indicator light will flash orange 2 times.
■Important points of the wireless charger
●If the electronic key cannot be detected within the vehicle interior, charging
cannot be done. When the door is opened and closed, charging may be
temporarily suspended.
●When charging, the wireless charging device and portable device will get
warmer, however this is not a malfunction.
When a portable device gets warm while charging, charging may stop due
to the protection function on the portable device side. In this case, when the
temperature of the portable device drops significantly, charge again.
■Operation sounds
When the power supply is turned on, while searching for the portable device a
sound will be produced, however this is not a malfunction.

Maintenance and care
■The initialization operation
●Make sure to carry out initialization after adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before carrying out initialization or tire
inflation pressure adjustment.
●If you have accidentally turned the power switch off during initialization, it is
not necessary to press the reset switch again as initialization will restart
automatically when the power switch has been turned to ON mode for the
next time.
●If you accidentally press the reset switch when initialization is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified level when the tires are
cold, and conduct initialization again.
■Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system
The warning of the tire pressure warning system will change in accordance
with the conditions under which it was initialized. For this reason, the system
may give a warning even if the tire pressure does not reach a low enough
level, or if the pressure is higher than the pressure that was adjusted to when
the system was initialized.
■When initialization of the tire pressure warning system has failed
Initialization can be completed in a few minutes. However, in the following
cases, the settings have not been recorded and the system will not operate
properly. If repeated attempts to record tire inflation pressure settings are
unsuccessful, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●When operating the initialization of the system, the tire pressure warning
light does not flash 3 times and the setting message does not appear on the
multi-information display.
●After driving for a certain period of time since the initialization has been
completed, the warning light comes on after blinking for 1 minute.
■Registering ID codes
The ID codes of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters for two sets
of wheels can be registered.
It is not necessary to register the ID codes when replacing normal tires with
snow tires, if the ID codes for the wheels of both normal tires and snow tires
are registered beforehand.
For information about changing ID codes, ask any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
