Vehicles with a smart key 
system: Open and close any 
of the doors of your vehicle 
with the engine switch OFF.

6

Maintain the engine speed of 
the second vehicle and start 
the engine of your vehicle by 
turning the engine switch to 
ON.

7

Once the vehicle’s engine 
has started, remove the 
jumper cables in the exact 
reverse order from which 
they were connected.

Once the engine starts, have the 
vehicle inspected at your Toyota 
dealer as soon as possible.

Starting the engine when the 

battery is discharged

The engine cannot be started by 

push-starting.

To prevent battery discharge

Turn off the headlights and the 

audio system while the engine is 

off.

Turn off any unnecessary electri-

cal components when the vehicle 

is running at a low speed for an 

extended period, such as in heavy 

traffic.

When the battery is removed or 

discharged

Information stored in the ECU is 

cleared. When the battery is 

depleted, have the vehicle 

inspected at your Toyota dealer.

Some systems may require initial-

ization. (

P.459)

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. (

P.114)

When replacing the battery

Use a battery that conforms to 

422

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency

European regulations.

Use a genuine battery specifically 

designed for use with the Stop & 

Start system or a battery with 

equivalent specifications to a gen-

uine battery. If an unsupported 

battery is used, Stop & Start sys-

tem functions may be restricted to 

protect the battery.

Also, battery performance may 

decrease and the engine may not 

be able to restart. Contact your 

Toyota dealer for details.

Use a battery that the case size is 

same as the previous one (LN3), 

20 hour rate capacity (20HR) is 

equivalent (65Ah) or greater, and 

performance rating (CCA) is 

equivalent (603A) or greater.

• If the sizes differ, the battery can-

not be properly secured.

• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low, 

even if the time period where the 

vehicle is not used is a short time, 

the battery may discharge and the 

engine may not be able to start.

For details, consult your Toyota 

dealer.

WARNING

When removing the battery 

terminals

Always remove the negative (-) 

terminal first. If the positive (+) ter-

minal contacts any metal in the 

surrounding area when the posi-

tive (+) terminal is removed, a 

spark may occur, leading to a fire 

in addition to electrical shocks 

and death or serious injury.

Avoiding battery fires or 

explosions

Observe the following precautions 

to prevent accidentally igniting the 

flammable gas that may be emit-

ted from the battery:

Make sure each jumper cable is 

connected to the correct termi-

nal and that it is not unintention-

ally in contact with any other 

than the intended terminal.

Do not allow the other end of 

the jumper cable connected to 

the “+” terminal to come into 

contact with any other parts or 

metal surfaces in the area, such 

as brackets or unpainted metal.

Do not allow the + and - clamps 

of the jumper cables to come 

into contact with each other.

Do not smoke, use matches, 

cigarette lighters or allow open 

flame near the battery.

Battery precautions

The battery contains poisonous 

and corrosive acidic electrolyte, 

while related parts contain lead 

and lead compounds. Observe 

the following precautions when 

handling the battery:

When working with the battery, 

always wear safety glasses and 

take care not to allow any bat-

tery fluids (acid) to come into 

contact with skin, clothing or the 

vehicle body.

Do not lean over the battery.

In the event that battery fluid 

comes into contact with the skin 

or eyes, immediately wash the 

affected area with water and 

seek medical attention. Place a 

wet sponge or cloth over the 

affected area until medical 

attention can be received.

Always wash your hands after 

handling the battery support, 

terminals, and other bat-

tery-related parts.

Do not allow children near the 

battery.

level on the dipstick.

Engine oil selection

“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is 
used in your Toyota vehicle. Use 
Toyota approved “Toyota Genu-
ine Motor Oil” or equivalent to 
satisfy the following grade and 
viscosity.
Oil grade: ILSAC GF-6B multi-
grade engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 
0W-16

Outside temperature

SAE 0W-16 is the best choice 
for good fuel economy and good 
starting in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-16 is not available, 
SAE 0W-20 oil may be used. 
However, it must be replaced 
with SAE 0W-16 at the next oil 
change.
Oil viscosity (0W-16 is explained 
here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-16 indicates 

the characteristic of the oil 
which allows cold startability. 
Oils with a lower value before
