Introduction

The 2004 Prius Emergency Response Guide (ERG) is now available on the Toyota Technical Information System (TIS). The ERG has been updated to include the following new features of the second generation Prius:

^ Complete model change with a new exterior and interior design.

^ Adoption of Hybrid Synergy Drive as the name for the Toyota Gasoline Electric Hybrid System.

^ Hybrid Synergy Drive includes a boost converter in the inverter assembly that boosts to 500 volts the available voltage to the electric motor.

^ The boost converter allows a reduction in the high voltage hybrid vehicle battery pack to 201 volts.

^ Addition of a high voltage 201 volt motor driven air conditioning compressor.

^ New electronic automatic transmission gearshift selector.

^ Elimination of the conventional ignition switch with the new standard electronic key system and optional smart entry and start electronic key.

^ Frontal airbags, optional side airbags for front occupants, and optional side curtain shield airbags for front and rear occupants.

Unlike the past version, the 2004 model year Prius ERG will only be published electronically. There will be no printed guide. To access the guide for viewing, downloading, or printing, please access TIS and follow the procedure in this bulletin.
