work properly or the danger that 
it may work in situations where it 
should not be working.
Installing electronic devices and 
radios increases the risk of 
cyber attacks through the 
installed parts, which may lead 
to unexpected accidents and 
leakage of personal informa-
tion. Toyota does not make any 
guarantees for problems caused 
by installing non-genuine Toyota 
products.
The installation of a mobile two-
way radio system in your vehicle 
could affect electronic systems 
such as:
Hybrid system
 Multiport fuel injection sys-
tem/sequential multiport fuel 
injection system
 Toyota Safety Sense 3.0
 Anti-lock brake system
 SRS airbag system
 Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your 
Toyota dealer for precautionary 
measures or special instructions 
regarding installation of a mobile 
two-way radio system.
High voltage parts and cables  on the Hybrid Electric Vehicles 
emit approximately the same 
amount of electromagnetic 
waves as the conventional gas-
oline powered vehicles or home 
electronic appliances despite of 
their electromagnetic shielding.
Unwanted noise may occur in 
the reception of the mobile two-
way radio.
This vehicle is equipped with 
sophisticated computers that 
record certain data regarding 
vehicle controls and operations.
■Data recorded by the com-
puters

*1: The recorded data varies 
according to the vehicle grade 
level and options with which it is 
equipped.
Certain data, such as the follow-
ing, is recorded depending on 
the operation timing and status 
of each function.
