For yo ur information
Main Owner’s Manual
Please note that this manual applies to all models and explains 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
Accessories, spare parts and modification of your Toyota
A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Toyota vehicles are currently available in the market. You should know that Toyota does not warrant these products and 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 non­genuine Toyota products could affect its 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.
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.
Installation of a mobile two-way radio system
The installation of a mobile two­way radio system in your vehicle could affect electronic systems such as:
Hybrid systemMultiport fuel injection sys-
tem/sequential multiport fuel injection system
9
Toyota Safety Sense 2.0Anti-lock brake systemSRS airbag systemSeat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your Toy­ota dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions regarding installation of a mobile two-way radio system.
High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles emit approximately the same amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline powered vehicles or home electronic appliances despite of their elec­tromagnetic shielding.
Unwanted noise may occur in the reception of the mobile two­way radio.
Vehicle data recording
The vehicle is equipped with sophisticated computers that will record certain data, such as:
• Engine speed/ Electric motor speed (traction motor speed)
• Accelerator status
• Brake status
• Vehicle speed
• Operation status of the driving assist systems
• Images from the front camera (available only when certain safety systems are activated, which varies depending on the vehicle specifications).
• Hybrid battery (traction bat­tery) status
The recorded data varies according to the vehicle grade level and options with which it is equipped. These computers do not record conversations or sounds, and only record images outside of the vehicle in certain situations.
Data Transmission
Your vehicle may transmit the data recorded in these computers to Toyota without notification to you.
Data usage
Toyota may use the data recorded in this computer to diagnose mal­functions, conduct research and development, and improve quality.
Toyota will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle
owner or with the consent of the lessee if the vehicle is leased
• In response to an official request
by the police, a court of law or a government agency
• For use by Toyota in a lawsuit
• For research purposes where the
data is not tied to a specific vehi­cle or vehicle owner
Recorded image information
can be erased by your Toyota dealer.
The image recording function can be disabled. However, if the func­tion is disabled, data from when the system operates will not be avail-
10
able.
To learn more about the vehi-
cle data collected, used and shared by Toyota, please visit www.toyota.com/privacyvts/
.
Usage of data collected through Safety Connect (U.S.mainland only)
If your Toyota has Safety Con­nect and if you have subscribed to those services, please refer to the Safety Connect Telematics Subscription Service Agreement for information on data collected and its usage.
To learn more about the vehi-
cle data collected, used and shared by Toyota, please visit www.toyota.com/privacyvts/
Event data recorder
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 sec­onds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
How various systems in your
vehicle were operating;
Whether or not the driver and
passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
How far (if at all) the driver
was depressing the accelera­tor and/or brake pedal; and,
How fast the vehicle was trav-
eling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the cir­cumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-triv­ial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. How­ever, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of per­sonally identifying data rou­tinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufac­turer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the spe­cial equipment, can read the
11
WARNING
information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
Disclosure of the EDR data
Toyota will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a third party except when:
• An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the lessee for a leased vehicle) is obtained
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a government agency
• For use by Toyota in a lawsuit
However, if necessary, Toyota may:
• Use the data for research on vehicle safety performance
• Disclose the data to a third party for research purposes without disclosing information about the specific vehicle or vehicle owner
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 components may include the airbags, seat belt preten­sioners, wireless remote control batteries, and the batteries in the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters.
General precautions while
driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to oper­ate your vehicle. 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 distracts 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.
12
WARNING
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 side windows, the moon roof or the panoramic 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.

Before driving
Observe the following before starting off in the vehicle to ensure safety of driving.
Installing floor mats
Use only floor mats designed specifically for vehicles of the same model and model year as your vehicle. Fix them securely in place onto the carpet.

An unexpectedly high speed may result or it may become difficult to stop the vehi­cle. This could lead to an acci­dent, resulting in death or serious injury.
When installing the driver’s
floor mat
Do not use floor mats designed
for other models or different model year vehicles, even if they are Toyota Genuine floor mats.
Only use floor mats designed
for the driver’s seat.
2 Turn the upper knob of each
retaining hook (clip) to secure the floor mats in place.
Always align the marks .
Always install the floor mat
