Plug-in hybrid system
Ensure that the junction box is
equipped with a Residual Cur-
rent Circuit-Breaker (RCCB). If it
is not, have one installed by a
duly qualified professional.
When charging outdoors, make
sure to connect to a rain-tight
socket that is certified for outdoor
use. Checking Residual Current
Circuit-Breaker (RCCB) opera-
tion before its use is recom-
mended.
Check whether there are any
local EV-charging regulations in
place, and adhere to them.
*: For detailed information, consult an
electrician.
■The charging environment
For safe charging, the following
charging equipment and settings are
recommended.
●Rain-tight socket
When charging outdoors, connect the
plug to a rain-tight socket, and ensure
that the plug remains waterproof while
the plug is connected.
●Dedicated circuit
• To reduce the risk of fire, connect only
to an at least 13A branch circuit with
an over-current protection.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock
when working with the plug, connect
to a socket that has a Residual Cur-
rent Circuit-Breaker (RCCB) installed.
●Remote switch
Allows the electricity from the socket to
be interrupted by operating a switch,
thus allowing safe removal and insertion
of the plug on rainy days.
■When your circuit breaker trips
during charging (vehicles with 7-
inch multi-information display)
The upper limit of the charging current
can be changed in “Vehicle Settings” on
the multi-information display.

nected power source meets the speci-
fied charging conditions. (P.124)

■When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not press any
buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are carry-ing an electronic key in your bag etc.,
ensure that the buttons are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a but-ton may cause the electronic key to emit
radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.
■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-informa-
tion display when the hybrid system
stops.
●To reduce key battery depletion when
the electronic key is to not be used for long periods of time, set the electronic key to the battery-saving mode.
( P.254)
●As the electronic key always receives
radio waves, the battery will become depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms
indicate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when necessary.
• The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not oper-ate.
• The detection area becomes smaller. • The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by yourself
( P.511). However, as there is a dan-
ger that the electronic key may be dam-
aged, it is recommended that
replacement is carried out by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 1 m (3
ft.) of the following electrical appli- ances 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 entry & start system is not oper-
ated, the key battery may become depleted faster than normal.
■If a message regarding the state of the electronic key or power switch
mode, etc. is shown
To prevent trapping the electronic key inside the vehicle, leaving the vehicle
carrying the electronic key on your per- son without turning the power switch to

Before driving
OFF or other passengers from uninten-
tionally taking the key out of the vehicle, etc., a message that prompts the user to confirm the state of the electronic key or
power switch mode may be shown on the multi-information display. In those cases, follow the instructions on the dis-
play immediately.
■If “Key Battery Low Replace Key Battery” is displayed on the multi-information display
The electronic key has a low battery. Replace the electronic key battery. ( P.511)
■Replacing the battery
 P.511
■Confirmation of the registered key number
The number of keys already registered
to the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer for details.
■If “New Key Registered Contact Your Dealer if You Did Not Register a New Key” or “A New Key has
been Registered Contact Your Dealer for Details” is displayed on the multi-information display
This message will be displayed each time the driver’s door is opened when the doors are unlocked from the outside
for approximately 10 days after a new electronic key has been registered. If this message is displayed but you
have not had a new electronic key regis- tered, ask any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer to check if an unknown electronic key (other than those in your possession) has been registered.
The electronic keys are equipped
with the following wireless remote
NOTICE
■To prevent key damage
●Do not drop the keys, subject them to strong shocks or bend them.
●Do not expose the keys to high temperatures for long periods of time.
●Do not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer, etc.
●Do not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the
keys close to such materials.
●Do not disassemble the keys.
●Do not attach a sticker or anything else to the surface of the electronic
key.
●Do not place the keys near objects
that produce magnetic fields, such as TVs, audio systems and induc-tion cookers.
●Do not place the keys near medical electrical equipment such as low-
frequency therapy equipment or microwave therapy equipment, and do not receive medical attention
with the keys on your person.
■Carrying the electronic key on
your person
Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.) or more away from electric appli-
ances that are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appli-ances within 10 cm (3.9 in.) of the
electronic key may interfere with the key, causing the key to not function properly.
