■
When removing the battery ter-
minals
When the battery terminals are
removed, the information stored in
the ECU is cleared. Before remov-
ing the battery terminals, contact
your Toyota dealer.
■
Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery
will discharge gradually even when
the vehicle is not in use, due to nat-
ural discharge and the draining
effects of certain electrical appli-
ances. If the vehicle is left for a long
time, the battery may discharge,
and the engine may be unable to
start. (The battery recharges auto-
matically during driving.)
■
When recharging or replacing
the battery (vehicles with a
smart key system)
●
In some cases, it may not be pos-
sible to unlock the doors using the
smart key system when the bat-
tery is discharged. Use the wire-
less remote control or the
mechanical key to lock or unlock
the doors.
●
The engine may not start on the
first attempt after the battery has
recharged but will start normally
after the second attempt. This is
not a malfunction.
●
The engine switch mode is memo-
rized by the vehicle. When the
battery is reconnected, the system
will return to the mode it was in
before the battery was dis-
charged. Before disconnecting the
battery, turn the engine switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the
engine switch was in before the
battery discharged, be especially
careful when reconnecting the
battery.
●
Vehicles with power back door:
The power back door must be ini-
tialized. (
