Page 25: Hybrid System Hybrid System Features
1-1. Hybrid system Hybrid system features Your vehicle is a hybrid vehicle. It has characteristics different from conventional vehicles. Be sure you are closely familiar with the char- acteristics of your vehicle, and operate with care. The hybrid system combines the use of a gasoline engine and an electric motor (traction motor) according to driving conditions, improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions.
Page 26 1-1. Hybrid system ■ When stopped/during start off The gasoline engine stops* when the vehicle is stopped. During start off, the electric motor (traction motor) drives the vehicle. At slow speeds or when traveling down a gentle slope, the engine is stopped* and the motor is used.
Page 27 For this reason, be sure to drive the vehicle at least once every few months for at least 30 minutes or 16 km (10 miles). If the hybrid bat- tery becomes fully discharged and you are unable to jump-start the vehi- cle with the 12-volt battery, contact your Toyota dealer.
Page 28 After the 12-volt battery has discharged or has been changed or removed The gasoline engine may not stop even if the vehicle is running on the hybrid battery (traction battery). If this continues for a few days, contact your Toyota dealer. ■...
Page 29: Hybrid System Precautions
1-1. Hybrid system Hybrid system precautions Take care when handling the hybrid system, as it contains a high voltage system (about 520 V at maximum) as well as parts that become extremely hot when the hybrid system is operating. Obey the caution labels attached to the vehicle.
Page 30 If the emergency shut off system activates, your vehicle will not restart. To restart the hybrid system, contact your Toyota dealer. Hybrid warning message A message is automatically displayed when a malfunction occurs in the hybrid system or an improper operation is attempted.
Page 31 If a warning light comes on, a warning message is displayed, or the 12- volt battery is disconnected The hybrid system may not start. In that case, try to start the system again. If the “READY” indicator does not come on, contact your Toyota dealer. ■ Running out of fuel...
Page 32 1-1. Hybrid system CAUTION ■ High voltage and high temperature precautions The vehicle has high voltage DC and AC systems as well as a 12-volt sys- tem. DC and AC high voltage is very dangerous and can cause severe burns and electric shock that may result in death or serious injury.
Page 33 Carefully inspect the ground under the vehicle. If you find that liquid has leaked onto the ground, the fuel system may have been damaged. Leave the vehicle as soon as possible and contact your Toyota dealer. ■ Nickel-metal hydride battery Your vehicle contains a sealed nickel-metal hydride battery.
Page 34 1-1. Hybrid system NOTICE ■ Hybrid battery air vent ● Do not place foreign objects over or in front of the air vent. The hybrid bat- tery (traction battery) may overheat and be damaged. ● Clean the air vent regularly to prevent the hybrid battery (traction battery) from overheating.
Page 35: Energy Monitor/Consumption Screen

Page 37 1-1. Hybrid system Fuel consumption screen There are 2 menu items available for the fuel consumption screen. After pressing the “DISP” switch, select one of the menu items below and the system will change to the details screen. The “5min Consumption”, “Past Record” and “ECO Savings Record” (→P.
Page 38 1-1. Hybrid system ■ “Past Record” There are 2 types of displays for the past record. Personal best and monthly average can be changed between on the settings screen. (→P. 38) Personal Best Displays the best 3 fuel consumption records and the current fuel consumption ranking.
Page 39 1-1. Hybrid system ■ Remaining hybrid battery (traction battery) charge display The charge amount of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is automatically controlled by the hybrid system. For this reason, even if electricity is recov- ered via the regenerative braking, or electricity is generated via the gasoline engine, the displayed hybrid battery (traction battery) charge amount may not reach the highest level (level 8).
Page 40: Hybrid Vehicle Driving Tips
1-1. Hybrid system Hybrid vehicle driving tips For economical and ecological driving, pay attention to the following points: ■ Using Eco drive mode →P. 155 ■ Use of Hybrid System Indicator By keeping Hybrid System Indicator within Eco area, more Eco-friendly driving may be possible.
Page 41 1-1. Hybrid system ■ Checking tire inflation pressure Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure frequently. Improper tire inflation pressure can cause poor fuel consumption. Also, as snow tires can cause large amounts of friction, their use on dry roads can lead to poor fuel consumption.
