When trouble arises
■If “Auto Power OFF to Conserve
Battery” is shown
Power was turned off due to the
automatic power off function.
Next time when starting the hybrid
system, operate th e hybrid system
for approximatel y 5 minutes to
recharge the 12-volt battery.
■If “Engine Oil Level Low Add or
Replace” is displayed
The engine oil level may be low.
Check the level of the engine oil,
and add engine oil if necessary.

not work properly unless the mes-
sage has been reset.) Perform the necessary mainte-
nance. Please reset the message
after the maintenance is performed.
(
 P.479)
*: Refer to the separate “Scheduled
Maintenance Guide” or “Owner’
Manual Supplement” for the main-
tenance interval applicable to your
vehicle.
■If “Engine Maintenance
Required Visit Your Dealer” is
shown
The engine or an engine component
is malfunctioning. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer
immediately.
■If a message that indicates the
malfunction of front camera is
displayed
The following systems may be sus-
pended until the problem shown in
the message is resolved. (P.338,
541)
●PCS (Pre-Collision System)
●LTA (Lane Tracing Assist)
●AHB (Automatic High Beam)
●RSA (Road Sign Assist)*
●Dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range
*: If equipped
■If a message that indicates the
malfunction of radar sensor is
displayed
The following systems may be sus-
pended until the problem shown in
the message is resolved. (P.338,
541)

was in before the 12-volt battery
was discharged. Before discon-
necting the 12-volt battery, turn
the power switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the
power switch was in before the
12-volt battery discharged, be
especially careful when recon-
necting the 12-volt battery.
■When replacing the 12-volt bat-
tery
●Use a 12-volt battery that con-
forms to European regulations.
●Use a 12-volt battery that the case
size is same as the previous one
(LN2), 20 hours rate capacity
(20HR) is equivalent (55Ah) or
greater, and performance rating
(CCA) is equivalent (345A) or
greater.
• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt bat- tery cannot be properly secured.
• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low,
even if the time period where the
vehicle is not used is a short time,
the 12-volt battery may discharge
and hybrid system may not be
able to start.
●Use a ventilation t ype calcium bat-
tery
●Use a 12-volt battery with a han-
dle. If a 12-volt b attery without a
handle is used, removal is more
difficult.
●When removing the 12-volt bat-
tery: P.496
●After replacing, firmly attach the
following items to the exhaust hole
of the 12-volt battery.
• Use the exhaust hose that was
attached to the 12-volt battery
before replacing an d confirm that
it is firmly connected to the hole
section of t he vehicle.
• Use the exhaust hole plug included with the new 12-volt bat-
tery or the one installed on the
battery prior to t he replacement.
(Depending on the new 12-volt
battery installed, the exhaust hole
may be plugged.) For details, consu
lt your Toyota
dealer.

●The terminals can be connected
to the body side when the nega-
tive terminal of the 12-volt battery
is disconnected, as shown in the
illustration.
WARNING
■When removing the battery
terminals
Always remove the negative (-)
terminal first. If the positive (+) ter-
minal contacts any metal in the
surrounding area when the posi-
tive (+) terminal is removed, a
spark may occur, leading to a fire
in addition to ele ctrical shocks
and death or serious injury.

When trouble arises
dropped and the vehicle may be
driven normally.
However, if the message appears
again frequently, contact your
Toyota dealer.
WARNING
■When inspecting under the
hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may result in seri-
ous injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from
under the hood, do not open the
hood until the steam has sub-
sided. The engine compart-
ment may be very hot.
●After the hybrid system has
been turned off, check that the
“READY” indicator is off.
When the hybrid system is oper-
ating, the gasoline engine may
automatically start, or the cool-
ing fan may suddenly operate
even if the gasoline engine
stops. Do not touch or approach
rotating parts such as the fan,
which may lead to fingers or
clothing (especially a tie, a scarf
or a muffler) getting caught,
resulting in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reser-
voir cap while the hybrid system
and radiator are hot.
High temperature steam or
coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power
control unit coolant
Add coolant slowly after the
hybrid system has cooled down
sufficiently. Adding cool coolant to
a hot hybrid system too quickly
can cause damage to the hybrid
system.
■To prevent damage to the
cooling system
Observe the following precau-
tions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant
with foreign matter (such as
sand or dust, etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.

■Temperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A
(the highest), B, and C, repre-
senting the tire’s resistance to
the generation of heat and its
ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor labo-
ratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can
cause the material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce tire life, and
excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger
car tires must meet under the Fed-
eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher
levels of performance on the labo-
ratory test wheel than the minimum
required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades
of a tire assume tha
t it is properly
inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either sepa-
rately or in combination, can cause
heat buildup and possible tire fail-
ure.
