Before recharging
When recharging, the 12-volt battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable
and explosive. Therefore, observe the following precautions before recharging:
●
If recharging with the 12-volt battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to disconnect
the ground cable.
●
Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connecting and discon-
necting the charger cables to the 12-volt battery.
■
After recharging/reconnecting the 12-volt battery
●
The hybrid system may not start. Follow the procedure below to initialize the system.
Shift the shift lever to P.
Open and close any of the doors.
Restart the hybrid system.
●
Unlocking the doors using the smart access system with push-button start may not
be possible immediately after reconnecting the 12-volt battery. If this happens, use
the wireless remote control or the mechanical key to lock/unlock the doors.
●
Start the hybrid system with the “POWER” switch in ACCESSORY mode. The
hybrid system may not start with the “POWER” switch turned off. However, the
hybrid system will operate normally from the second attempt.
●
The “POWER” switch mode is recorded by the vehicle. If the 12-volt battery is recon-
nected, the vehicle will return the “POWER” switch mode to the status it was in
before the 12-volt battery was disconnected. Make sure to turn off the “POWER”
switch before disconnect the 12-volt battery. Take extra care when connecting the 12-
volt battery if the “POWER” switch mode prior to discharge is unknown.
If the system will not start even after multiple attempts at all methods above, contact
your Lexus dealer.
