For your information

Main Owner’s Manual

Please note that this manual applies to all models and explains all equip-

ment, 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 color and 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 vehi-

cles 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. Mod-

ification with non-genuine Toyota products could affect its performance,

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

tion, damage or performance problems resulting from the modification may

not be covered under warranty.
