CAUTION If an accident occurs D Pull your Toyota off the road, put the selector lever in "P" and remove the ignition key. D When your Toyota needs to be towed, do it with the front wheels raised. For details on towing, see "If your vehicle needs to be towed" on page 182 in Section 5. D In order to avoid personal injuries, do not touch any high voltage wirings and their connectors, and high voltage parts (inverter unit, hybrid vehicle battery, etc.). D If some exposed electric wirings are protruding inside or outside of your Toyota, an electric shock may occur. Never touch the electric wirings. D If fluid leaks or gets in some parts of the vehicle, never touch it because it may be electrolyte (strong alkali) from the hybrid vehicle battery. If it gets into your skin or eyes, wash off immediately with a large amount of water, if possible, boric acid solution, and get immediate medical attention in order to help avoid serious injury. D If a vehicle fire occurs, extinguish it using a fire extinguisher for the exclusive use on electric fires. Or, use a large amount of water to prevent flammable gas from being generated from the batteries. vi
