When cleaning the air intake vent
When cleaning the air intake vent, make
sure to only use a vacuum to suck out
dust and clogs. If a compressed air blow
gun, etc. is used to blow out dust and
clogs, the dust or clogs may be pushed
into the air intake vent, which may affect
the performance of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) and cause a malfunc-
tion.
■
To prevent damage to the vehicle
●
Do not allow water or foreign matter to enter the air intake vent when the
cover is removed.
●
Carefully handle the removed filter so that it will not be damaged.
If the filter is damaged, have it replaced with a new filter by your Toyota
dealer.
●
Make sure to reinstall the filter and cover to their original positions after
cleaning.
●
Do not install anything to the air intake vent other than the exclusive filter
for this vehicle or use the vehicle without the filter installed.

immediately.
