The SRS airbag and seat belt 
pretensioner devices in your 
Toyota contain explosive chemi-
cals. If the vehicle is scrapped 
with the airbags and seat belt 
pretensioners left as they are, 
this may cause an accident such 
as fire. Be sure to have the sys-
tems of the SRS airbag and seat 
belt pretensioner removed and 
disposed of by a qualified ser-
vice shop or by your Toyota 
dealer before you scrap your 
vehicle.

WARNING
■General precautions while 
driving
Driving under the influence: Never 
drive your vehicle when under the 
influence of alcohol or drugs that 
have impaired your ability to oper-
ate your vehicle. Alcohol and cer-
tain drugs delay reaction time, 
impair judgment and reduce coor-
dination, which could lead to an 
accident that could result in death 
or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive 
defensively. Anticipate mistakes 
that other drivers or pedestrians 
might make and be ready to avoid 
accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give 
your full attention to driving. Any-
thing that distracts the driver, 
such as adjusting controls, talking 
on a cellular phone or reading can 
result in a collisio n with resulting 
death or serious injury to you, 
your occupants or others.

If the latch release button is 
pressed during charging (while the 
charging indicator is illuminated), 
charging will be  interrupted.
3Attach the charging connec-
tor cap.
4 Close the charging port lid.
5 Remove the plug from the 
outlet when the charging 
equipment will not be used  for a prolonged period of 
time.
Hold the body of the plug when 
removing.
Make sure to put the cable away 
immediately after disconnecting. 
(
 P.123)
When leaving the plug inserted, 
inspect the plug and connector 
once a month to check if dirt or dust 
has accumulated.
■When the outside temperature 
is low or high
The level shown on the SOC (State 
of Charge) gauge ( P.155) may 
drop slightly when the power switch

■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.

your vehicle.
To stop the alarm, press any button  on the electronic key.
To take out the mechanical key,

only has grooves on one side. If the 
key cannot be inserted in a lock cyl-
inder, turn it over
 and re-attempt to 
insert it.
After using the mechanical key, 
store it in the electronic key. Carry 
the mechanical key together with 
the electronic key. If the electronic 
key battery is depleted or the entry 
function does not operate properly, 
you will need the mechanical key.
