What should I do if the electronic key battery is low?

If the multi-information display says “Key Battery Low Replace Key Battery,” replace the electronic key battery.

Because replacement can damage the key, have an authorized Toyota retailer, authorized repairer, or reliable repairer replace it.

How do I remove and store the mechanical key?

Slide the release lever to remove the mechanical key, then store it in the electronic key and carry both together.

If the key will not enter the lock cylinder, turn it over and try again because it inserts in only one direction.

Why is charging not starting when the charging indicator flashes?

A flashing indicator means a charging schedule is registered, so charging cannot start normally.

Turn Charge Now on, or remove and immediately reconnect the charging connector while the indicator flashes.

What happens if I unlock the doors while charging at a public station?

Unlocking the doors unlocks the connector, stops charging, cancels station authentication, and may prevent charging from restarting.

Reconnect the charging connector and authenticate again at the charging station.

What should I do if my hybrid transmission fluid needs replacement?

Use Toyota Genuine ATF WS; the listed 4.4 L (4.6 qt., 3.9 Imp.qt.) is a reference capacity.

Have replacement performed by an authorized Toyota retailer, authorized repairer, or reliable repairer, because another fluid may cause noise, vibration, or transmission damage.
