●When nanoe™ X is generated, a small amount of ozone is emitted and
may be faintly smelled in some situa- tions. However, this is approximately the same as the amount that already
exists in nature, such as in forests, and it has no affect on the human body.
●A slight noise may be heard during operation. This is not a malfunction.*1: “nanoe X” is a “nanoe” generator.
*2: nanoe™ and the nanoe™ mark are
trademarks of Panasonic Corpora-
tion.
*3: According to temperature and humid-
ity conditions, fan speed and direc-
tion of the air flow, the nanoe™
system may not operate at full capac-
ity.

WARNING
■To prevent the windshield from fogging up
Do not use the windshield defogger
switch during cool air operation in extremely humid weather. The differ-ence between the temperature of the
outside air and that of the windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, blocking your
vision.
■When the outside rear view mir-
ror defoggers are operating
Do not touch the outside rear view mirror surfaces, as they can become
very hot and burn you.
■nanoe™ X
Do not disassemble or repair the gen- erator because it contains high volt-
age parts. Contact any Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any repairer if the generator needs repair.
NOTICE
■To prevent 12-volt battery dis-charge
Do not leave the air conditioning sys-
tem on longer than necessary when the hybrid system is off.
■To prevent damage to the nanoe™ X
Do not insert anything into the front
center vent on the passenger side (left-hand drive vehicles) or driver side (right-hand drive vehicles) vent,
attach anything to it, or use sprays around the passenger side (left-hand drive vehicles) or driver side (right-
hand drive vehicles) vent. These things may cause the generator not to work properly.

Maintenance and care
Remove dirt and dust using a
vacuum cleaner. Wipe dirty sur-
faces with a cloth dampened with
lukewarm water.
 If dirt cannot be removed, wipe it
off with a soft cloth dampened
with neutral detergent diluted to
approximately 1%.
Wring out any excess water from
the cloth and thoroughly wipe off
remaining traces of detergent
and water.
■Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foaming-
type cleaners available. Use a sponge or brush to apply the foam. Rub in over-lapping circles. Do not use water. Wipe
dirty surfaces and let them dry. Excellent results are obtained by keeping the car-pet as dry as possible.
■Handling the seat belts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water using a cloth or sponge. Also check the belts periodically for exces-
sive wear, fraying or cuts.
NOTICE
●Do not bring the nozzle tip close to boots (rubber or resin manufac-
tured cover), connectors or the fol- lowing parts. The parts may be damaged if they come into contact
with high-pressure water.
• Traction related parts
• Steering parts
• Suspension parts
• Brake parts
●Keep the cleaning nozzle at least 30 cm (11.9 in.) away from the vehi-
cles body. Otherwise resin section, such as moldings and bumpers, may be deformed and damaged.
Also, do not continuously hold the nozzle in the same place.
●Do not spray the lower part of the windshield continuously. If water enters the air conditioning system
intake located near the lower part of the windshield, the air conditioning system may not operate correctly.
●Do not wash the underside of the vehicle using a high pressure car
washer.
Cleaning and protecting
the vehicle interior

appropriate to each compo-
nent and its material.

Maintenance and care
WARNING
●Keep hands, clothing and tools away from the moving fan.
●Be careful not to touch the engine, power control unit, radiator, exhaust
manifold, etc. right after driving as they may be hot. Oil and other flu-ids may also be hot.
●Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper and
rags, in the engine compartment.
●Do not smoke, cause sparks or
expose an open flame to fuel or 12- volt battery. Fuel and 12-volt battery fumes are flammable.
●Be extremely cautious when work-ing on the 12-volt battery. It con-
tains poisonous and corrosive sulfuric acid.
●Take care because brake fluid can harm your hands or eyes and dam-age painted surfaces. If fluid gets
on your hands or in your eyes, flush the affected area with clean water immediately.
If you still experience discomfort, consult a doctor.
■When working near the electric cooling fan or radiator grille
Be sure the power switch is OFF.
With the power switch in ON, the electric cooling fan may automatically start to run if the air conditioning is on
and/or the coolant temperature is high. ( P.387)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc.
from getting in your eyes.
NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner fil- ter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear due to dirt in the air.
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to
go down slightly as the brake pads wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refill- ing, it may indicate a serious problem.
