■Child restraint LATCH
anchors
LATCH anchors are provided for
the outboard rear seats.
■When installing in the rear
outboard seats
Install the child restraint system
in accordance to the operation
manual enclosed with the child
restraint system.
1 Adjust the seat.
If there is a gap between the child
restraint system and the seatback,
adjust the seatback angle until
good contact is achieved.
2If the head restraint interferes
with the child restraint system
installation and the head
restraint can be removed,
WARNING
●When securing some types of
child restraint s ystems in rear
seats, it may not be possible to
properly use the seat belts in
positions next to the child
restraint without interfering with
it or affecting seat belt effective-
ness. Be sure your seat belt fits
snugly across your shoulder
and low on your hips. If it does
not, or if it interferes with the
child restraint, move to a differ-
ent position. Failure to do so
may result in death or serious
injury.
●When installing a child restraint
system in the center rear seat,
adjust both seatbacks at the
same angle. Otherwise, the
child restraint system cannot be
securely restrained and this
may cause death or serious
injuries in the event of sudden
braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.
■When installing a booster
seat
To prevent the b elt from going
into ALR lock mode, do not fully
extend the shoulder belt. ALR
mode causes the belt to tighten
only. This could cause injury or
discomfort to the child. ( P.31)
■Do not use a seat belt
extender
If a seat belt extender is used
when installing a child restraint
system, the seat belt will not
securely hold the child restraint
system, which could cause death
or serious injury to the child or
other passengers in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerv-
ing or an accident.

781-4. Hybrid system
There is an air intake vent under
the right side of the rear seat
with the purpose of cooling the
hybrid battery (traction battery).
If the vent is blocked, it may inter-
fere with the cooling of the hybrid
battery (traction battery).If input/output of t
he hybrid battery
(traction battery) becomes limited
and the distance that the vehicle
can be driven using the electric
motor (traction motor) is reduced,
the fuel economy may be reduced.
When a certain level of impact is
detected by the impact sensor,
the emergency shut off system
blocks the high voltage current
and stops the fuel pump to mini-
WARNING
When reselling or handing over
your vehicle, the possibility of an
accident is extremely high
because the person receiving the
vehicle may not be aware of these
dangers.
●If your vehicle is disposed of
without the hybrid battery hav-
ing been removed, there is a
danger of serious electric shock
if high voltage parts, cables and
their connectors are touched. In
the event that your vehicle must
be disposed of, the hybrid bat-
tery must be disposed of by
your Toyota dealer or a qualified
service shop. If the hybrid bat-
tery is not dispos ed of properly,
it may cause electric shock that
can result in death or serious
injury.
NOTICE
■Hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery)
Do not carry large amounts of
water such as water cooler bottles
in the vehicle.
If water spills onto the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery), the battery
may be damaged. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.

battery) air intake vent
NOTICE
■Hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) air intake vent
●Make sure not to block the air
intake vent with anything, such
as a seat cover, luggage, or car-
pet. The input/output of the
hybrid battery (traction battery)
may be restricted, leading to a
reduction in hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) output and a mal-
function.
●Periodically clean the air intake
vent to prevent it from clogging.
(  P.417)
●Do not get water or foreign
materials in the air intake vent
as this may cause a short circuit
and damage the hybrid battery
(traction battery).
