WARNING
■When the electric power steer- ing system warning light comes  
on 
When the light comes on yellow, the  assist to the power steering is  
restricted. When the light comes on  red, the assist to the power steering is lost and handling operations of the  
steering wheel become extremely  heavy.When steering wheel operations are  
heavier than usual, grip the steering  wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usual.
■If the tire pressure warning light comes on 
Be sure to observe the following pre- cautions.Failure to do so could cause a loss of  
vehicle control and result in death or  serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire inflation pressure immediately.
●Vehicles with a compact spare tire and full-size spare tire: If the tire  
pressure warning light comes on  even after tire inflation pressure adjustment, it is probable that you  
have a flat tire. Check the tires. If a  tire is flat, change it with the spare tire and have the flat tire repaired  
by the nearest any authorized  Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Vehicles with emergency tire punc-ture repair kit: If the tire pressure  
warning light comes on even after  tire inflation pressure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire.  
Check the tires. If a tire is flat, repair  the flat tire by using emergency tire puncture repair kit.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking.If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you  
could lose control of the steering  wheel or the brakes.
■If a blowout or sudden air leak-age should occur 
The tire pressure warning system  
may not activate immediately.
NOTICE
■To ensure the tire pressure warn- ing system operates properly 
Do not install tires with different speci- fications or makers, as the tire pres-sure warning system may not operate  
properly.

When trouble arises
■Warning messages 
The warning messages explained below  
may differ from the actual messages  according to operation conditions and vehicle specifications.
■Warning buzzer 
A buzzer may sound when a message is  displayed. The buzzer may not be audible if the  
vehicle is in a noisy location or if the  audio system volume is high.
■If “Engine Oil Level Low Add or Replace” is displayed 
The engine oil level is low. Check the  
level of the engine oil, and add if neces- 
sary. 
This message may appear if the vehicle  is stopped on a slope. Move the vehicle  
to a level surface and check to see if the  message disappears.
■If “Hybrid System Stopped Steering Power Low” is displayed 
This message is displayed if the hybrid  system is stopped while driving. 
When steering wheel operations are  
heavier than usual, grip the steering  wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usual.
■If “Hybrid System Overheated Out- 
put Power Reduced” is displayed 
This message may be displayed when  driving under severe operating condi- 
tions. (For example, when driving up a  long steep hill.) Handling method:  P. 4 7 7
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be  
Protected Refrain from the Use of N  Position” is displayed 
This message may be displayed when  
the shift lever is in N. 
As the hybrid battery (traction battery)  cannot be charged when the shift lever  
is in N, shift the shift lever to P when the  vehicle is stopped.
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be Protected Shift into P to Restart” is  
displayed 
This message is displayed when the  hybrid battery (traction battery) charge  
has become extremely low because the  shift lever has been left in N for a certain amount of time. 
When operating the vehicle, shift to P  and restart the hybrid system.
■If “Shift to P Before Exiting Vehicle” is shown 
Message is displayed when the driver’s  door is opened without turning the power switch to OFF with the shift lever  
in any position other than P. Shift the  shift lever to P.
If  a warning message is  
displayed
The multi-information display  
shows warnings for system  
malfunctions and incorrectly  
performed operations, and  
messages that indicate a need  
for maintenance. When a mes- 
sage is displayed, perform the  
appropriate corrective action  
for the message.
If a warning message is dis- 
played again after the appro- 
priate actions have been  
performed, contact any autho- 
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota  
authorized repairer, or any reli- 
able repairer.
Additionally, if a warning light  
comes on or flashes at the 
same time that a warning mes- 
sage is displayed, take the  
appropriate corrective action  
for the warning light. ( P.435)

WARNING
●Keep back from the tire while it is  
being repaired, as there is a chance 
of it bursting while the repair opera-
tion is being performed. If you 
notice any cracks or deformation of  
the tire, turn   (off) the compres- 
sor switch and stop the repair oper- 
ation immediately.
●The repair kit may overheat if oper- ated for a long period of time. Do  
not operate the repair kit continu- ously for more than 40 minutes.
●Parts of the repair kit become hot during operation. Be careful when handling the repair kit during and  
after operation. Do not touch the  metal part around the connecting area between the bottle and com- 
pressor. It will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed 
warning sticker to an area other  than the one indicated. If the sticker is attached to an area where an  
SRS airbag is located, such as the  pad of the steering wheel, it may prevent the SRS airbag from oper- 
ating properly.
●To avoid risk of burst or severe 
leakage, do not drop or damage the  bottle. Visually inspect the bottle before use. Do not use a bottle with  
shock, crack, scratch, leakage or  any other damage. In such case, immediately replace.
■Driving to spread the liquid seal- 
ant evenly 
Observe the following precautions to  reduce the risk of accidents. 
Failing to do so may result in a loss of  vehicle control and cause death or serious injury.
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a low speed. Be especially careful when  
turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle does not drive straight  or you feel a pull through the steer-ing wheel, stop the vehicle and  
check the following. 
• Tire condition. The tire may have  
separated from the wheel. 
• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire  
inflation pressure is 130 kPa (1.3  
kgf/cm2 or bar, 19 psi) or less, the  tire may be severely damaged.
NOTICE
■When performing an emergency repair
●A tire should only be repaired with  
the emergency tire puncture repair  kit if the damage is caused by a sharp object such as nail or screw  
passing through the tire tread. Do not remove the sharp object from the tire. Removing the object  
may widen the opening and disena- ble emergency repair with the repair kit.
●The repair kit is not waterproof. Make sure that the repair kit is not  
exposed to water, such as when it  is being used in the rain.
●Do not put the repair kit directly onto dusty ground such as sand at the side of the road. If the repair kit  
vacuums up dust etc., a malfunc- tion may occur.
●Do not turn the bottle upside down when using it, as doing so may cause damage to the compressor.
■Precautions for the emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The repair kit power source should be 12 V DC suitable for vehicle use. Do not connect the repair kit to any  
other source.

WARNING
■When using the full-size spare tire (if equipped)
●Replace the full-size spare tire with a standard tire as soon as possible.
●Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shift-ing operations that cause sudden  
engine braking.
