1-2. Child safety
For safety and security
1If installing the child restraint
system to the front passenger
seat is unavoidable, refer to
P.50 for the front passenger seat
adjustment.
2 If the head restraint interferes
with your child restraint system,
and the head restraint can be
removed, remove the head
restraint. Otherwise, put the
head restraint in the upper most
position. ( P.160)
3 Run the seat belt through the
child restraint system and insert
the plate into the buckle. Make
sure that the belt is not twisted.
Securely fix the seat belt to the
child restraint system in accor-
dance to the directions enclosed
with the child restraint system.
4 If your child restraint system is
not equipped with a lock-off (a
seat belt locking feature),
s e c u r e t h e c h i l d r e s t r a i n t s y s t e m
using a locking clip.
5 After installing the child restraint
system, rock it back and forth to
ensure that it is installed
securely. ( P. 6 2 )
■Removing a child restraint
system installed with a seat
belt
Press the buckle release button
and fully retract the seat belt.
When releasing the buckle, the child
restraint system may spring up due to
the rebound of the seat cushion.
Release the buckle while holding down
the child restraint system.
Since the seat belt automatically reels
itself, slowly return it to the stowing
position.
■When installing a child restraint system
You may need a locking clip to install the
child restraint system. Follow the instructions provided by the manufac-turer of the system. If your child restraint
system does not provide a locking clip, you can purchase the following item from any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer: Locking clip for child restraint system
(Part No. 73119-22010)

1-4. Hybrid system
Power control unit
*: AWD models only
■Running out of fuel
When the vehicle has run out of fuel and the hybrid system cannot be started,
refuel the vehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel level warn-ing light ( P.438) go off. If there is only
a small amount of fuel, the hybrid sys- tem may not be able to start. (The stan-dard amount of fuel is about 6.3 L [1.7
gal., 1.4 Imp. gal.] when the vehicle is on a level surface. This value may vary when the vehicle is on a slope. Add
extra fuel when the vehicle is inclined.)
■Electromagnetic waves
●High voltage parts and cables on
hybrid electric vehicles incorporate electromagnetic shielding, and there-fore emit approximately the same
amount of electromagnetic waves as conventional gasoline powered vehi-cles or home electronic appliances.
●Your vehicle may cause sound inter-ference in some third party-produced
radio parts.
■Hybrid battery (traction battery)
The hybrid battery (traction battery) has
a limited service life. The lifespan of the hybrid battery (traction battery) can change in accordance with driving style
and driving conditions.
■Starting the hybrid system in an extremely cold environment
When the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) is extremely cold (below approxi- mately -30°C [-22°F]) under the influence of the outside temperature, it
may not be possible to start the hybrid system. In this case, try to start the hybrid system again after the tempera-
ture of the hybrid battery increases due to the outside temperature increase etc.
■Declaration of conformity
This model conforms to hydrogen emis-
sions according to regulation ECE100
(Battery electric vehicle safety).
WARNING
■High voltage precautions
This vehicle has high voltage DC and AC systems as well as a 12-volt sys-tem. DC and AC high voltage is very
dangerous and can cause severe burns and electric shock that may result in death or serious injury.
●Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace the high voltage parts,
cables or their connectors.
●The hybrid system will become hot
after starting as the system uses high voltage. Be careful of both the high voltage and the high tempera-
ture, and always obey the warning labels attached to the vehicle.
●Never try to open the service plug access hole located under the left side of the rear seat. The service
plug is used only when the vehicle is serviced and is subject to high voltage.
■Road accident cautions
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of death or serious injury:
●Pull your vehicle off the road, apply the parking brake, shift the shift lever to P, and turn the hybrid sys-
tem off.

4-1. Before driving
WARNING
■When shifting the shift lever
●Do not let the vehicle roll backward
while a forward driving position is selected, or roll forward while the shift lever is in R.
Doing so may result in an accident or damage to the vehicle.
●Do not shift the shift lever to P while the vehicle is moving.Doing so can damage the transmis-
sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Do no t sh i ft t h e sh if t l e ve r t o R whi l e the vehicle is moving forward.Doing so can damage the transmis-
sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Do not shift the shift lever to a driv-ing position while the vehicle is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the transmis- sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Moving the shift lever to N while the vehicle is moving will disengage the
hybrid system. Engine braking is not available with the hybrid system disengaged.
●Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal
depressed. Shifting the shift lever to any positions other than P or N may lead to unexpected rapid accelera-
tion of the vehicle that may cause an accident and result in death or serious injury.
■If you hear a squealing or scrap-ing noise (brake pad wear indica-
tors)
Have the brake pads checked and replaced by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
Rotor damage may result if the pads are not replaced when needed.
It is dangerous to drive the vehicle when the wear limits of the brake pads and/or those of the brake discs
are exceeded.
■When the vehicle is stopped
●Do not depress the accelerator pedal unnecessarily.If the shift lever is any position other
than P or N, the vehicle may accel- erate suddenly and unexpectedly, causing an accident.
●In order to prevent accidents due to the vehicle rolling away, always
keep depressing the brake pedal while stopped with the “READY” indicator is illuminated, and apply
the parking brake as necessary.
●If the vehicle is stopped on an
incline, in order to prevent acci- dents caused by the vehicle rolling forward or backward, always
depress the brake pedal and securely apply the parking brake as needed.
●Avoid revving or racing the engine.Running the engine at high speed
while the vehicle is stopped may cause the exhaust system to over-heat, which could result in a fire if
combustible material is nearby.
■When the vehicle is parked
●Do not leave glasses, cigarette lighters, spray cans, or soft drink cans in the vehicle when it is in the
sun. Doing so may result in the follow-ing:
• Gas may leak from a cigarette lighter or spray can, and may lead
to a fire.
• The temperature inside the vehicle
may cause the plastic lenses and plastic material of glasses to deform or crack.

4-1. Before driving
Driving
at a time to prevent steering
error. Have someone guide you
when reversing to lessen the risk
of an accident.
■Increasing vehicle-to-vehicle
distance
At a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph), the
distance to the vehicle running
ahead of you should be equivalent
to or greater than the combined
length of your vehicle and trailer.
Avoid sudden braking that may
cause skidding. Otherwise, the
vehicle may spin out of control. This
is especially true when driving on
wet or slippery road surfaces.
■Sudden acceleration/steering
input/cornering
Executing sharp turns when towing
may result in the trailer colliding
with your vehicle. Decelerate well in
advance when approaching turns
and take them slowly and carefully
to avoid sudden braking.
■Important points regarding
turning
The wheels of the trailer will travel
closer to the inside of the curve
than the wheels of the vehicle. To
make allowance for this, take the
turns wider than you would nor-
mally do.
■Important points regarding
stability
Vehicle movement resulting from
uneven road surfaces and strong
crosswinds will affect handling. The
vehicle may also be rocked by
passing buses or large trucks. Fre-
quently check behind when moving
alongside such vehicles. As soon
as such vehicle movement occurs,
immediately start to decelerate
smoothly by slowly applying the
brakes. Always steer the vehicle
straight ahead while braking.
■Passing other vehicles
Consider the total combined length
of your vehicle and trailer and
ensure that the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance is sufficient before execut-
ing lane changes.
■Transmission information
To maintain engine braking effi-
ciency and charging system perfor-
mance when using engine braking,
do not use the transmission in D.
( P.197)
■If the engine overheats
Towing a loaded trailer up a long,
steep incline in temperatures
exceeding 30°C (85°F) may result
in the engine overheating. If the
engine coolant temperature gauge
indicates that the engine is over-
heating, turn the air conditioning off
immediately, leave the road and
stop the vehicle in a safe place.
( P.477)
■When parking the vehicle
Always place wheel chocks under
the wheels of both the vehicle and
trailer. Firmly set the parking brake
and shift the shift lever to P.
