For your information

Main Owner’s Manual

Please note that this manual covers all models and all equipment, including

options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for equipment not

installed on your vehicle.

All specifications provided in this manual are current at the time of printing.

However, because of the Toyota policy of continual product improvement,

we reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.

Depending on specifications, the vehicle shown in the illustrations may differ

from your vehicle in terms of equipment.

Noise from under vehicle after turning off the hybrid system

Approximately five hours after the hybrid system is turned off, you may hear

sound coming from under the vehicle for several minutes. This is the sound

of a fuel evaporation leakage check and, it does not indicate a malfunction.

Accessories, spare parts and modification of your Toyota

A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Toyota

vehicles are currently available on the market. You should know that these

parts are not covered by Toyota warranty and that Toyota is not responsible

for their performance, repair, or replacement, or for any damage they may

cause to, or adverse effect they may have on, your Toyota vehicle.

This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Toyota products.

Modification with non-genuine Toyota products may affect performance,

safety or durability, and may even violate governmental regulations. In

addition, damage or performance problems resulting from the modification

may not be covered under warranty.

Installation of a mobile two-way radio system

As the installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle may

affect electronic systems such as the multi-port fuel injection system/sequen-

tial multi-port fuel injection system, cruise control system, anti-lock brake

system, SRS airbag system or seat belt pretensioner system, be sure to

check with your Toyota dealer for precautionary measures or special instruc-

tions regarding installation.

High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles emit approximately the

same amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline pow-

ered vehicles or home electronic appliances despite their electromagnetic

shielding.

Unwanted noise may occur in the reception of the mobile two-way radio.

Scrapping of your Toyota

The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain

explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt

pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be

sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner

removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Toyota

dealer before you scrap your vehicle.

Perchlorate Material

Special handling may apply, See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.

Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate. These compo-

nents may include airbag, seat belt pretensioners, and wireless remote con-

trol batteries.

CAUTION

■General precautions while driving

Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ-

ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi-

cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and

reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in

death or serious injury.

Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other

drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.

Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that dis-

tracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or

reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,

your occupants or others.

■General precaution regarding children’s safety

Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to

have or use the key.

Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.

There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with

the windows, the moon roof, or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat

build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to

children.

■Disposal of the hybrid battery (traction battery)

If your vehicle is disposed of without the hybrid battery having been

removed, there is a danger of serious electric shock if high voltage parts,

cables and their connectors are touched. In the event of that your vehicle

must be disposed of, the hybrid battery must be disposed of your Toyota

dealer or a qualified service shop. If the hybrid battery is not disposed of

properly, they may cause electric shock that can result in death or serious

injury.

1-1. Hybrid system

Hybrid system

Your vehicle is a hybrid vehicle. It has characteristics different from

conventional vehicles. Be sure you are closely familiar with the char-

acteristics of your vehicle, and operate with care.

The hybrid system combines a gasoline engine and an electric

motor (traction motor) according to driving conditions, improving

fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions.

Gasoline engine

Front electric motor (traction motor)

Rear electric motor (traction motor)

■When stopped/during start-off

The gasoline engine stops when the vehicle is stopped. During

start-off, the electric motor (traction motor) drives the vehicle. At

slow speeds or when traveling down a gentle slope, the engine

is stopped and the motor is used.

1-1. Hybrid system

Before driving

■Regenerative braking

The motor generator converts kinetic energy to electric energy when:

●The accelerator pedal is released.

●The brake pedal is depressed with the shift lever in D or R.

■Conditions in which the gasoline engine may not stop

The gasoline engine starts and stops automatically. However, it may not stop

automatically in the following conditions:

●During gasoline engine warm-up

●During hybrid battery (traction battery) charging

●During low or high hybrid battery (traction battery) temperature

●When the heater is switched on

■Charging the battery

●As the gasoline engine charges the hybrid battery (traction battery), the

battery does not need to be charged from an outside source. However, if

the vehicle is left parked for a long time the hybrid battery will slowly dis-

charge. For this reason, be sure to drive the vehicle at least once every

several months for at least 30 minutes or 10 miles (16 km). If the hybrid

battery becomes fully discharged and you are unable to jump-start the

vehicle with the 12-volt battery, contact your Toyota dealer.

■During normal driving

The gasoline engine is predominantly used. The electric motor

(traction motor) charges the hybrid battery as necessary.

■When accelerating sharply

The power of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is added via

electric motor (traction motor) to that of the gasoline engine.

■When braking (regenerative braking)

The electric motor (traction motor) charges the hybrid battery

(traction battery).

1-1. Hybrid system

●If the shift lever is in N, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will not be

charged. When driving in heavy traffic, operate the vehicle with the shift

lever in D to avoid discharging the battery.

●To help prevent the 12-volt battery from becoming discharged, drive the

vehicle at least once a month, and operate the accessories only when

the “READY” indicator is on. When parking the vehicle, make sure the

doors is closed and all lights are turned off.

■After the 12-volt battery has discharged or has been changed or

removed

The gasoline engine may not stop even if the vehicle is running on the hybrid

battery (traction battery). If this continues for a few days, contact your Toyota

dealer.

■Sounds and vibrations specific to a hybrid vehicle

There may be no engine sounds or vibration even though the vehicle is able

to move. Always shift the shift lever to P when parked.

The following sounds or vibrations may occur when the hybrid system is

operating, and are not a malfunction:

●Motor sounds may be heard from the engine compartment.

●Sounds may be heard from the hybrid battery (traction battery) under the

rear seat when the hybrid system starts or stops.

●Sounds from the hybrid system may be heard when the back door is

open.

●Sounds may be heard from the hybrid transmission when the engine is

started or stopped, or while the engine is idling.

●Engine sounds may be heard when accelerating sharply.

●Sounds may be heard due to regenerative braking when the brake pedal

is depressed or accelerator is loosened.

●Vibration may be felt when the gasoline engine starts or stops.

●Cooling fan sounds may be heard from the air intake vents under the rear

seat.

■Maintenance, repair, recycling, and disposal

Contact your Toyota dealer regarding maintenance, repair, recycling and

disposal. Do not dispose of the vehicle yourself.
