Exhaust gas precau-
tions
Harmful substance to the
human body is included in
exhaust gases if inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful
carbon monoxide (CO), which is
colorless and odorless. Observe
the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause
exhaust gases enter the vehicle
and may lead to an accident
caused by light-headedness, or
may lead to death or a serious
health hazard.

Important points while driving
●
Keep the trunk lid closed.
●
If you smell exhaust gases in
the vehicle even when the trunk
lid is closed, open the windows
and have the vehicle inspected
at your Toyota dealer as soon
as possible.
■
When parking
●
If the vehicle is in a poorly venti-
lated area or a closed area,
such as a garage, stop the
hybrid system.
●
Do not leave the vehicle with
the hybrid system on for a long
time.
If such a situation cannot be
avoided, park the vehicle in an
open space and ensure that
exhaust fumes do not enter the
vehicle interior.
●
Do not leave the hybrid system
operating in an area with snow
build-up, or where it is snowing.
If snowbanks build up around
the vehicle while the hybrid sys-
tem is operating, exhaust gases
may collect and enter the vehi-
cle.
■
Exhaust pipe
The exhaust system needs to be
checked periodically. If there is a
hole or crack caused by corro-
sion, damage to a joint or abnor-
mal exhaust noise, be sure to
have the vehicle inspected and
repaired by your Toyota dealer.
