WARNING
 When using electrical appliance while
driving, make sure that it is firmly
secured. Flying objects entering the pas-
senger compartment during sudden brak-
ing or sharp turning could result in a
serious accident and/or injury.
Refer to "Luggage hooks" on page 5-215.
 Do not use an electrical appliance which
emits steam while the windows are closed.
Lack of visibility due to steam could lead
to an accident. Also, doing so may damage
other electrical components.
 While using the 120 V AC power supply,
even if the engine is not running, the
engine may automatically start later
depending on the condition of the Plug-in
Hybrid EV system and/or the main drive
lithium-ion battery.
• Before using the 120 V AC power supply
while the vehicle is stationary, to prevent
the vehicle from moving abruptly, apply
the parking brake firmly and press the
electrical parking switch and make sure
that the select position indicator on the
multi-information displays "P" (PARK).
Also, to avoid activating the selector
lever, do not place a power cord on or
near the lever.
WARNING
• Never use the 120 V AC power supply in
a closed or poorly ventilated area, such
as in a garage, or an area surrounded by
snow banks. Carbon monoxide gas,
which is odorless and extremely poison-
ous, could build up and cause serious
injury or death.
• Do not park your vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass
or leaves can come in contact with a hot
exhaust, since a fire could occur.
• When using the 120 V AC power supply
while it is raining or snowing, do not
leave the door or liftgate open. Wetting
the 120 V AC power supply may cause
overheating resulting in a fire and/or
electrical shock.
 Never use a multi-plug adapter or conver-
sion adapter. Using them may cause over-
heating resulting in fire.
 If you use an electrical appliance that
emits light, your visibility at night may be
affected which could impede safe driving.
 Do not spill a beverage on the 120 V AC
power supply. This may cause overheating
resulting in a fire and/or electrical shock.
 Do not let children touch the 120 V AC
power supply.
 The cooling fan in the engine compart-
ment may automatically operate when
using the 120 V AC power supply. Keep
your hands and clothes away from the
cooling fan.
120 V AC power supplies (if so equipped)
WARNING
 Never use the 120 V AC power supply
when lightning or thunder is observed or
expected.
 Never use the 120 V AC power supply for
electromedical apparatus.
CAUTION
 When the 120 V AC power supply is not in
use, be sure to cancel power supply by press-
ing the 120 V AC power supply switch, dis-
connect the plug and close the lid. This will
prevent the 120 V AC power supply from
becoming clogged and short circuiting.
 Do not stand behind the exhaust pipe as the
engine may automatically start depending on
the condition. Heat from the exhaust could
lead to burns.
 Make sure that the plug is inserted all the
way into the 120 V AC power supply before
using an electrical appliance.
 Do not use an electrical appliance in the
vehicle which emits heat such as a heater.
Heat damage to interior parts could result.
 Do not connect a malfunctioning electrical
appliance to the 120 V AC power supply.
Doing so could damage the 120 V AC power
supply.
