porarily, and only in an emer-

gency.

Make sure to check the tire infla-

tion pressure of the compact

spare tire. (

When using the compact spare

tire

As the compact spare tire is not

equipped with a tire pressure warn-

ing valve and transmitter, low infla-

tion pressure of the spare tire will

not be indicated by the tire pressure

warning system. Also, if you replace

the compact spare tire after the tire

pressure warning light comes on,

the light remains on.

Starting the hybrid system

when the 12-volt battery is dis-

charged

The hybrid system cannot be

started by push-starting.

To prevent 12-volt battery dis-

charge

Turn off the headlights and the

audio system while the hybrid sys-

tem is off.

Turn off any unnecessary electri-

cal components when the vehicle

is running at a low speed for an

extended period, such as in heavy

traffic.

When the 12-volt battery is

removed or discharged

Information stored in the ECU is

cleared. When the 12-volt battery

is depleted, have the vehicle

inspected at your Toyota dealer.

Some systems may require initial-

ization. (

P.514)

When removing the 12-volt bat-

tery terminals

When the 12-volt battery terminals

are removed, the information stored

in the ECU is cleared. Before

removing the 12-volt battery termi-

nals, contact your Toyota dealer.

Charging the 12-volt battery

The electricity stored in the 12-volt

battery will discharge gradually even

when the vehicle is not in use, due

to natural discharge and the drain-

ing effects of certain electrical appli-

ances. If the vehicle is left for a long

time, the 12-volt battery may dis-

charge, and the hybrid system may

be unable to start. (The 12-volt bat-

tery recharges automatically while

the hybrid system is operating.)

When recharging or replacing

the 12-volt battery

In some cases, it may not be pos-

sible to unlock the doors using the

smart key system when the 12-

volt battery is discharged. Use the

wireless remote control or the

mechanical key to lock or unlock

the doors.

The hybrid system may not start

on the first attempt after reinstall-

ing the 12-volt battery. In that

case, start the hybrid system in

the same manner as when the

electronic key does not operate

properly (

P.468). This is not a

malfunction, as the hybrid system

will start normally on the second

attempt.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

472

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency

The power switch mode is memo-

rized by the vehicle. When the 12-

volt battery is reconnected, the

system will return to the mode it

was in before the 12-volt battery

was discharged. Before discon-

necting the 12-volt battery, turn

the power switch off.

If you are unsure what mode the

power switch was in before the

12-volt battery discharged, be

especially careful when recon-

necting the 12-volt battery.

Some systems may require initial-

ization. (

P.514)

When replacing the 12-volt bat-

tery

Use a 12-volt battery that con-

forms to European regulations.

Use a battery that the case size is

same as the previous one (LN2),

20 hours rate capacity (20HR) is

equivalent (55Ah) or greater, and

performance rating (CCA) is

equivalent (345A) or greater.

• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt bat-

tery cannot be properly secured.

• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low,

even if the time period where the

vehicle is not used is a short time,

the 12-volt battery may discharge

and hybrid system may not be

able to start.

Use a ventilation type calcium bat-

tery

Use a 12-volt battery with a han-

dle. If a 12-volt battery without a

handle is used, removal is more

difficult.

When removing the 12-volt bat-

tery:

P.396

After replacing, firmly attach the

following items to the exhaust hole

of the 12-volt battery.

• Use the exhaust hose that was

attached to the 12-volt battery

before replacing and confirm that

it is firmly connected to the hole

section of the vehicle.

• Use the exhaust hole plug

included with the 12-volt battery

replaced or the one installed on

the battery prior to the replaced.

(Depending on the 12-volt battery

to be replace, the exhaust hole

may be plugged.)

For details, consult your Toyota
dealer.

WARNING

When removing the battery

terminals

Always remove the negative (-)

terminal first. If the positive (+) ter-

minal contacts any metal in the

surrounding area when the posi-

tive (+) terminal is removed, a

spark may occur, leading to a fire

in addition to electrical shocks

and death or serious injury.

Avoiding 12-volt battery fires

or explosions

Observe the following precautions

to prevent accidentally igniting the

flammable gas that may be emit-

ted from the 12-volt battery:

Make sure each jumper cable is

connected to the correct termi-

nal and that it is not unintention-

ally in contact with any other

than the intended terminal.

WARNING

Do not allow the other end of

the jumper cable connected to

the “+” terminal to come into

contact with any other parts or

metal surfaces in the area, such

as brackets or unpainted metal.

Do not allow the + and - clamps

of the jumper cables to come

into contact with each other.

Do not smoke, use matches,

cigarette lighters or allow open

flame near the 12-volt battery.

12-volt battery precautions

The 12-volt battery contains poi-

sonous and corrosive acidic elec-

trolyte, while related parts contain

lead and lead compounds.

Observe the following precautions

when handling the 12-volt battery:

When working with the 12-volt

battery, always wear safety

glasses and take care not to

allow any battery fluids (acid) to

come into contact with skin,

clothing or the vehicle body.

Do not lean over the 12-volt bat-

tery.

In the event that battery fluid

comes into contact with the skin

or eyes, immediately wash the

affected area with water and

seek medical attention.

Place a wet sponge or cloth

over the affected area until

medical attention can be

received.

Always wash your hands after

handling the 12-volt battery sup-

port, terminals, and other bat-

tery-related parts.

Do not allow children near the

12-volt battery.

After recharging the 12-volt

battery

Have the 12-volt battery

inspected at your Toyota dealer

as soon as possible.

If the 12-volt battery is deteriorat-

ing, continued use may cause the

12-volt battery to emit a malodor-

ous gas, which may be detrimen-

tal to the health of passengers.

When replacing the 12-volt

battery

For information regarding 12-

volt battery replacement, con-

tact your Toyota dealer.

After replacing, securely attach

the exhaust hose and exhaust

hole plug to the exhaust hole of

the replaced 12-volt battery. If

not properly installed, gases

(hydrogen) may leak into the

vehicle interior, and there is the

possible danger of the gas ignit-

ing and exploding.

Recovering procedure

WARNING

When attempting to free a

stuck vehicle

If you choose to push the vehicle

back and forth to free it, make

sure the surrounding area is clear

to avoid striking other vehicles,

objects or people. The vehicle

may also lunge forward or lunge

back suddenly as it becomes free.

Use extreme caution.

When shifting the shift lever

Be careful not to shift the shift

lever with the accelerator pedal

depressed.
This may lead to unexpected

rapid acceleration of the vehicle

that may cause an accident

resulting in death or serious

injury.

NOTICE

To avoid damaging the trans-

mission and other compo-

nents

Avoid spinning the wheels and

depressing the accelerator

pedal more than necessary.

If the vehicle remains stuck

even after these procedures are

performed, the vehicle may

require towing to be freed.

SAE 0W-16 is the best choice
for good fuel economy and good
starting in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-16 is not available,
SAE 0W-20 oil may be used.
However, it must be replaced
with SAE 0W-16 at the next oil
change.

Outside temperature

Oil viscosity (0W-16 is explained
here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-16 indicates

the characteristic of the oil
which allows cold startability.
Oils with a lower value before

the W allow for easier starting
of the engine in cold weather.

• The 16 in 0W-16 indicates the

viscosity characteristic of the
oil when the oil is at high tem-
perature. An oil with a higher
viscosity (one with a higher
value) may be better suited if
the vehicle is operated at high
speeds, or under extreme
load conditions.

How to read oil container label:
API registered mark is added to
some oil containers to help you
select the oil you should use.

Gasoline quality

In very few cases, driveability prob-

lems may be caused by the brand of

gasoline you are using. If driveability

problems persist, try changing the

brand of gasoline. If this does not

correct the problem, consult your

Toyota dealer.

Recommendation of the use of

gasoline containing detergent

additives

Toyota recommends the use of

gasoline that contains detergent

additives to avoid the build-up of

engine deposits.

All gasoline sold in the U.S.A. con-

tains minimum detergent additives

to clean and/or keep clean intake

systems, per EPA’s lowest addi-

tives concentration program.

Toyota strongly recommends the

use of Top Tier Detergent Gaso-

line. For more information on Top

Tier Detergent Gasoline and a list

of marketers, please go to the offi-

cial website www.toptiergas.com.

Recommendation of the use of

low emissions gasoline

Gasolines containing oxygenates

such as ethers and ethanol, as well

as reformulated gasolines, are avail-

able in some cities. These fuels are

typically acceptable for use, provid-

ing they meet other fuel require-

ments.
Toyota recommends these fuels,

since the formulations allow for

reduced vehicle emissions.

Non-recommendation of the

use of blended gasoline

Use only gasoline containing up to

15% ethanol.

DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gas-

oline that could contain more than

15% ethanol, including from any

pump labeled E30 (30% ethanol

), E50 (50% ethanol

), E85

(85% ethanol

) (which are only

some examples of fuel containing

more than 15% ethanol).

If you use gasohol in your vehicle,

be sure that it has an octane rat-

ing no lower than 87.

Toyota does not recommend the

use of gasoline containing metha-

nol.

Non-recommendation of the

use of gasoline containing MMT

Some gasoline contains an octane

enhancing additive called MMT

(Methylcyclopentadienyl Manga-

nese Tricarbonyl).
Toyota does not recommend the

use of gasoline that contains MMT.

If fuel containing MMT is used, your

Fuel information

You must only use unleaded
gasoline in your vehicle.

Select octane rating 87
(Research Octane Number
91) or higher. Use of
unleaded gasoline with an
octane rating lower than 87
may result in engine knock-
ing. Persistent knocking
can lead to engine damage.

At minimum, the gasoline you
use should meet the specifica-
tions of ASTM D4814 in the
U.S.A..

emission control system may be

adversely affected.
The malfunction indicator lamp on

the instrument cluster may come on.

If this happens, contact your Toyota

dealer for service.

If your engine knocks

Consult your Toyota dealer.

You may occasionally notice light

knocking for a short time while

accelerating or driving uphill. This

is normal and there is no need for

concern.

NOTICE

Notice on fuel quality

Do not use improper fuels. If

improper fuels are used, the

engine will be damaged.

Do not use leaded gasoline.

Leaded gasoline can cause

damage to your vehicle’s three-

way catalytic converters caus-

ing the emission control system

to malfunction.

Do not use gasohol other than

the type previously stated.

Other gasohol may cause fuel

system damage or vehicle per-

formance problems.

Using unleaded gasoline with

an octane number or rating

lower than the level previously

stated will cause persistent

heavy knocking.

At worst, this will lead to engine

damage.

Fuel-related poor driveability

If poor driveability (poor hot start-

ing, vaporization, engine knock-

ing, etc.) is encountered after

using a different type of fuel, dis-

continue the use of that type of

fuel.

When refueling with gasohol

Take care not to spill gasohol. It

can damage your vehicle’s paint.

Transportation.
It provides the purchasers
and/or prospective purchasers
of Toyota vehicles with informa-
tion on uniform tire quality grad-
ing.

Your Toyota dealer will help answer
any questions you may have as you
read this information.

DOT quality grades

All passenger vehicle tires must
conform to Federal Safety
Requirements in addition to
these grades. Quality grades
can be found where applicable

on the tire sidewall between
tread shoulder and maximum
section width.

For example: Treadwear 200 Trac-
tion AA Temperature A

Treadwear

The treadwear grade is a com-
parative rating based on the
wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a
specified government test
course.

For example, a tire graded 150
would wear one and a half (1 - 1/2)
times as well on the government
course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions
of their use. Performance may dif-
fer significantly from the norm due
to variations in driving habits, ser-
vice practices and differences in
road characteristics and climate.

Traction AA, A, B, C

The traction grades, from high-
est to lowest, are AA, A, B and
C, and they represent the tire’s
ability to stop on wet pavement
as measured under controlled
conditions on specified govern-
ment test surfaces of asphalt
and concrete.

A tire marked C may have poor
traction performance.
Warning: The traction grade
assigned to this tire is based on
braking (straight ahead) traction
tests and does not include corner-
ing (turning) traction.

Temperature A, B, C

The temperature grades are A
(the highest), B, and C, repre-
senting the tire’s resistance to
the generation of heat and its
ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor labo-
ratory test wheel.

Sustained high temperature can
cause the material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce tire life, and
excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of

performance which all passenger
car tires must meet under the Fed-
eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher
levels of performance on the labo-
ratory test wheel than the minimum
required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades
of a tire assume that it is properly
inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either sepa-
rately or in combination, can cause
heat buildup and possible tire fail-
ure.

Module de capteur de coussin gonflable

Votre véhicule est doté de COUSSINS GONFLABLES ÉVOLUÉS
dont la conception s’appuie sur les normes de sécurité des véhicules
à moteur américains (FMVSS208). Le module de capteur de coussin
gonflable (ECU) contrôle le déploiement des coussins gonflables en
fonction des informations obtenues des capteurs et d’autres élé-
ments affichés dans le diagramme des composants du système ci-
dessus. Ces informations comprennent des données relatives à la
gravité de l’accident et aux occupants. Au moment du déploiement
des coussins gonflables, une réaction chimique se produit dans les
gonfleurs de coussin gonflable et les coussins gonflables se remplis-
sent rapidement d’un gaz non toxique pour aider à limiter le mouve-
ment des occupants.

AVERTISSEMENT

Précautions relatives aux

coussins gonflables SRS

Observez les précautions suiva-

ntes en ce qui concerne les cous-

sins gonflables SRS.

Négliger de le faire pourrait occa-

sionner des blessures graves,

voire mortelles.

Le conducteur et tous les pas-

sagers du véhicule doivent por-

ter leur ceinture de sécurité de

la manière appropriée.

Les coussins gonflables SRS

sont des dispositifs supplémen-

taires qui doivent être utilisés

avec les ceintures de sécurité.

AVERTISSEMENT

Le coussin gonflable SRS du

conducteur se déploie avec une

force considérable et peut occa-

sionner des blessures graves,

voire mortelles, notamment lor-

sque le conducteur se trouve

très près du coussin gonflable.

La National Highway Traffic

Safety Administration (NHTSA),

aux États-Unis, fait les recom-

mandations suivantes :

La zone à risque du coussin gon-
flable du conducteur couvre
2 à 3 in. (50 à 75 mm) de la zone
de déploiement du coussin gon-
flable. Pour assurer une marge de
sécurité suffisante, restez à 10 in.
(250 mm) du coussin gonflable.
Cette distance est mesurée
depuis le centre du volant jusqu’à
votre sternum. Si maintenant
vous vous tenez assis à moins de
10 in. (250 mm), vous pouvez
changer votre position de con-
duite de plusieurs manières :

• Reculez votre siège à la posi-

tion maximale vous permettant

d’atteindre encore aisément les

pédales.

• Inclinez légèrement le dossier

du siège.

Bien que les véhicules soient

conçus différemment, la plupart

des conducteurs peuvent main-

tenir une distance de 10 in.

(250 mm), même si leur siège

se trouve complètement vers

l’avant, simplement en inclinant

un peu le dossier du siège vers

l’arrière. Si la visibilité avant est

moindre après avoir incliné le

dossier de votre siège, utilisez

un coussin ferme et non glissant

pour être assis plus haut ou

relevez le siège si cette option

est disponible sur votre

véhicule.

• Si votre volant est réglable en

hauteur, inclinez-le vers le bas.

Cela vous permet d’orienter le

coussin gonflable vers votre

buste plutôt que vers votre tête

et vers votre cou.

Le siège doit être réglé de la

manière recommandée ci-dessus

par la NHTSA, tout en gardant le

contrôle des pédales et du volant,

ainsi que la vue sur les com-

mandes du tableau de bord.

Si la rallonge de ceinture de

sécurité a été reliée à la boucle

de ceinture de sécurité du pas-

sager avant sans avoir égale-

ment été attachée à la plaque

de blocage de la ceinture de

sécurité du passager avant, les

coussins gonflables SRS avant

du passager avant con-

sidéreront que le passager

avant porte tout de même sa

ceinture même si elle n’est pas

attachée. Les coussins gonfla-

bles SRS du passager avant

peuvent alors ne pas s’activer

correctement lors d’une colli-

sion, ce qui pourrait occasion-

ner des blessures graves, voire

mortelles, en cas de collision.

Assurez-vous de toujours porter

la ceinture de sécurité avec la

rallonge de ceinture de sécurité.

AVERTISSEMENT

Le coussin gonflable SRS du

passager avant se déploie

également avec une force con-

sidérable et peut occasionner

des blessures graves, voire

mortelles, notamment lorsque le

passager avant se trouve très

près du coussin gonflable. Le

siège du passager avant doit se

trouver le plus loin possible du

coussin gonflable et le dossier

doit être réglé de manière à ce

que le passager avant soit assis

bien droit.

Le déploiement d’un coussin

gonflable risque d’infliger des

blessures graves, voire mor-

telles, aux bébés et aux enfants

mal assis et/ou mal attachés.

Un bébé ou un enfant trop petit

pour utiliser une ceinture de

sécurité doit être correctement

retenu à l’aide d’un dispositif de

retenue pour enfants. Toyota

recommande vivement de

placer et d’attacher correcte-

ment tous les bébés et tous les

enfants sur les sièges arrière du

véhicule à l’aide de dispositifs

de retenue adaptés. Les sièges

arrière sont plus sécuritaires

pour les bébés et les enfants

que le siège du passager avant.

N’installez jamais un dispositif

de retenue pour enfants de type

dos à la route sur le siège du

passager avant, même si le

voyant “AIR BAG OFF” est

allumé. En cas d’accident, la

force et la vitesse de déploie-

ment du coussin gonflable du

passager avant pourraient

infliger à l’enfant des blessures

graves, voire mortelles, si le dis-

positif de retenue pour enfants

de type dos à la route était

installé sur le siège du passager

avant.

Ne vous asseyez pas sur le

bord du siège et ne vous

appuyez pas sur la planche de

bord.

Ne laissez pas un enfant se

tenir face au coussin gonflable

SRS du passager avant ni

s’asseoir sur les genoux d’un

passager avant.

Ne laissez pas les occupants

des sièges avant tenir des

objets sur leurs genoux.

Ne vous appuyez pas sur la

portière ou sur le brancard de

pavillon, ni sur les montants

avant, latéraux ou arrière.

AVERTISSEMENT

Ne laissez personne s’age-

nouiller face à la portière sur le

siège du passager ni sortir la

tête ou les mains à l’extérieur

du véhicule.

Ne fixez et n’appuyez rien sur

des zones telles que la planche

de bord, le tampon de volant ou

encore la partie inférieure du

tableau de bord.

Ces objets peuvent se trans-

former en projectiles lorsque les

coussins gonflables SRS du

conducteur, du passager avant

et de protection des genoux se

déploient.

Ne fixez rien sur des zones

telles que les portières, le pare-

brise, les glaces latérales, les

montants avant ou arrière, le

brancard de pavillon et la poi-

gnée de maintien.

N’accrochez pas de cintres ni

d’autres objets rigides sur les

crochets porte-vêtements. Tous

ces objets pourraient se trans-

former en projectiles et vous

occasionner des blessures

graves, voire mortelles, en cas

de déploiement des coussins

gonflables SRS en rideau.

Si un recouvrement de vinyle

est placé sur la zone de

déploiement du coussin gon-

flable SRS de protection des

genoux, veillez à le retirer.

N’utilisez pas d’accessoires

recouvrant les parties du siège

où les coussins gonflables SRS

latéraux et le coussin gonflable

SRS du coussin de siège se

déploient, car ces accessoires

pourraient entraver le déploie-

ment des coussins SRS. De tels

accessoires peuvent empêcher

les coussins gonflables SRS

latéraux et le coussin gonflable

SRS du coussin de siège de

s’activer correctement, rendre le

système inopérant ou provo-

quer le déploiement accidentel

des coussins gonflables SRS

latéraux et du coussin gonflable

SRS du coussin de siège, occa-

sionnant des blessures graves,

voire mortelles.

Ne frappez pas et n’appliquez

pas une pression importante à

l’emplacement des portières

avant ou des composants des

coussins gonflables SRS.

Cela peut provoquer un mau-

vais fonctionnement des couss-

ins gonflables SRS.

Ne touchez à aucun composant

des coussins gonflables SRS

immédiatement après leur

déploiement (gonflage), car ils

pourraient être chauds.

AVERTISSEMENT

Si vous avez de la difficulté à

respirer après le déploiement

des coussins gonflables SRS,

ouvrez une portière ou une

glace latérale pour laisser entrer

l’air frais, ou quittez le véhicule

si vous pouvez le faire en toute

sécurité. Dès que possible, net-

toyez tous les résidus afin

d’éviter les irritations cutanées.

Si les emplacements de stock-

age des coussins gonflables

SRS, tels que le tampon de

volant et les garnitures des

montants avant et arrière, sont

endommagés ou fissurés,

faites-les remplacer par votre

concessionnaire Toyota.

Ne placez aucun objet, par

exemple un coussin, sur le

siège du passager avant. Cela

disperserait le poids du pas-

sager, ce qui empêcherait le

capteur de le détecter correcte-

ment. Cela pourrait empêcher le

déploiement des coussins gon-

flables SRS du passager avant

en cas de collision.

Modification et mise au rebut

des composants du système

de coussins gonflables SRS

Ne mettez pas votre véhicule au

rebut et n’effectuez aucune des

modifications suivantes sans

d’abord consulter votre conces-

sionnaire Toyota. Les coussins

gonflables SRS pourraient

fonctionner de manière incor-

recte ou se déployer (gonfler)

accidentellement, ce qui serait

susceptible d’occasionner des

blessures graves, voire mortelles.

Installation, retrait, démontage

et réparation des coussins gon-

flables SRS

Réparations, modifications,

retrait ou remplacement du

volant, du tableau de bord, de la

planche de bord, des sièges ou

du capitonnage des sièges, des

montants avant, latéraux et

arrière, des brancards de pavil-

lon, des panneaux des portières

avant, des garnitures des

portières avant ou des haut-

parleurs des portières avant

Modifications du panneau de la

portière avant (comme le per-

forer)

Réparations ou modifications de
