■When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key
onto an aircraft, make sure you do
not press any buttons on the elec-
tronic key while inside the aircraft
cabin. If you are carrying an elec-
tronic key in your bag etc., ensure
that the buttons are not likely to be
pressed accidentally. Pressing a
button may cause the electronic key
to emit radio waves that could inter-
fere with the oper ation of the air-
craft.
■Electronic key battery depletion
●The standard battery life is 1 to 2
years.
●If the battery becomes low, an
alarm will sound in the cabin and a
message will be displayed on the
multi-information display when the hybrid system stops.
●To reduce key ba
ttery depletion
when the electronic key is to not
be used for long periods of time,
set the electronic key to the bat-
tery-saving mode. ( P.205)
●As the electronic key always
receives radio waves, the battery
will become depleted even if the
electronic key is not used. The fol-
lowing symptoms indicate that the
electronic key battery may be
depleted. Replace the battery
when necessary.
• The smart key system or the wire- less remote control does not oper-
ate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key sur- face does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by your-
self ( P.538). However, as there is
a danger that the electronic key may
be damaged, it is recommended
that replacement is carried out by
your Toyota dealer.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do
not leave the electronic key within
3 ft. (1 m) of the following electri-
cal appliances that produce a
magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Table lamps
• Induction cookers
●If the electronic key is near the
vehicle for longer than necessary,
even if the smart key system is not
operated, the key battery may
become depleted faster than nor-
mal. When not operating the
smart key system, it is recom-
mended to not stay with the elec-
tronic key near the vehicle longer
than necessary.

WARNING
• When a device is likely to fall
under the pedals and prevent
the brake pedal from being
depressed, such as a hair dryer,
AC adapter, mouse, etc.
●Do not use devices which pro-
duce steam while the windows
are closed. Doing so may cause
the windows to fog up, reducing
visibility and making it difficult to
drive safely. Also, the steam
may damage or negatively
affect other devices. If the
device must be used, stop the
vehicle and open the windows
before use.
NOTICE
■To avoid short circuit or mal-
function
Observe the following precau-
tions. Failure to do so may lead to
the power outlets not operating
correctly or damage to the vehicle
or a connected device.
●Do not set a toaster or other
device which generates heat
near the interior components or
on a seat. Heat may cause
these parts to melt or burn.
●Do not use devices which are
sensitive to vibration or heat in
the vehicle. These devices may
malfunction due to vibration
while driving or heat while the
vehicle is parked in the sun.
●When not using a power outlet,
make sure to close the lid. If for-
eign matter or a liquid enters the
power outlet, it may cause a
malfunction or short circuit.
■Using the power outlet while
parked or stopped
●Water may leak from the
exhaust pipe while the engine
running if the power outlet is
used for a long time. However,
this is not a malfunction.
●At extremely low temperatures,
water may freeze in the exhaust
pipe and make it difficult to start
the engine, or an odor may
come from the exhaust pipe. In
this case, stop using the power
outlet, and then drive the vehi-
cle for 15 to 30 minutes.
