Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful substance to the
human body is included in
exhaust gases if inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful car-
bon monoxide (CO), which is color-
less 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 closed.
If you smell exhaust gases in the
●
vehicle even when the trunk 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 system is
operating, exhaust gases may col-
lect and enter the vehicle.

The exhaust system needs to be
checked periodically. If there is a hole
or crack caused by corrosion, dam-
age to a joint or abnormal exhaust
noise, be sure to have the vehicle
inspected and repaired by your
Toyota dealer.
