(“−”mark)
c. Connect the clamp of the negative
(black) jumper cable to the negative (−)
terminal of the booster battery.
d. Connect the clamp at the other end
of the negative (black) cable to a solid,
stationary, unpainted metallic point
away from the auxiliary battery (such
as shown in the illustration). Do not
connect it to or near any part that may
move when the hybrid system is star-
ted.
The recommended connecting points
are shown in the illustration.
CAUTION
When making the connections, to
avoid serious injury, do not lean over
the battery or accidentally let the
jumper cables or clamps touch any-
thing except the correct battery termi-
nals or the ground.
5. Start the hybrid system. Make sure the
“READY” light is on.
If the traction battery warning light
comes on in the meter cluster, the
traction battery is also discharged. In
this condition, the hybrid system will
not start. Contact your Toyota dealer.
6. Carefully disconnect the cables in the
exact reverse order: the negative cable
and then the positive cable.
7. Carefully dispose of the battery cover
cloths—they may now contain sulfuric
acid.
8. If removed, replace all the battery vent
plugs.
If the cause of the auxiliary battery dis-
charging is not apparent (for example,
lights left on), have the battery checked
by your Toyota dealer.
If the first start attempt is not success-
ful...
Check that the clamp on the jumper
cables are tight. Recharge the discharged
battery with the jumper cables connected
for several minutes and restart the hybrid
system in the normal way.
If the another attempt is not successful,
the battery may be depleted. Have it ch-
ecked at your Toyota dealer.
