WARNING
● Do not let children touch the
power outlets.
● Keep the power outlets free of
dust and foreign matter.
● If the plug of a device fits
loosely in a power outlet, even
though it is fully inserted,
replace the power outlet. For
information on replacement,
contact your Toyota dealer.
■ Using the power outlets while
parked or stopped
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may lead to an
accident, possibly resulting in
death or serious injury.
● Make sure to engage the park-
ing brake and shift the shift lever
to P.
● Do not leave the vehicle unat-
tended while the READY indica-
tor is illuminated and a device is
connected to a power outlet.
● Make sure that the hood is
closed. As the engine will start
automatically depending on the
condition of the vehicle, make
sure that nothing is left near or
contacting the exhaust pipes.
Also, do not put your head or
hands anywhere inside the
engine compartment, as the
cooling fan may operate sud-
denly. Keep hands and clothing
(especially a tie, scarf, etc.)
away from the fan as they may
get caught in a fan.

5-5. Using the other interior features
● Do not use the power outlets in
an area with poor ventilation or
an enclosed area, such as a
garage without a ventilation or
exhaust system, or in an area
where the vehicle may become
surrounded by snow, as the
exhaust gasses may accumu-
late, causing a lack of oxygen.
● Do not use the power outlets if
the vehicle has a vehicle cover
installed.
● Do not sleep in the vehicle while
using devices such as an elec-
tric heater.
■ Devices to be connected
Make sure to read any instruction
manual which came with a device
and observe any warnings on the
device. Do not connect a device
to a power outlet if the device is
malfunctioning or its plug is dam-
aged.
Do not use power outlets for med-
ical devices, as the output of the
power outlet may be cut, depend-
ing on the condition of the vehicle.
NOTICE
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may lead to the
power outlets not operating cor-
rectly or damage to the vehicle or
a connected device.
■ To avoid short circuit or mal-
function
● Do not set a device which gen-
erates heat near the interior
components or on a seat. Heat
may cause these parts to melt
or burn.
