Starting the Hybrid System
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline engine 
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power for the 
vehicle. To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking force 
generates electricity which is then sent to the traction battery. In addition, 
the engine shuts off when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fuel 
economy, reduced vehicle emissions and improved performance.
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are  shown on the Multi-Information Display and/or navigation system 
screen (if equipped).
Tips for improved fuel economy
1. Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the  Owner’s Manual.
2. Link trips to reduce engine cold starts whenever possible. 
3. Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway. 
4. When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
5. Minimize use of the Air Conditioning.

SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
When the radar sensor detects possibility of a frontal collision, brakes are 
automatically engaged to lessen impact as well as vehicle damage. The alert 
timing for the pre-collision system can be changed or turned on/off, as necessary, 
by operating the switch.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system before attempting 
to use it.
The Lane Departure Alert recognizes the visible lane markers using a camera as a 
sensor and alerts the driver with beeping and flashing indicators when the vehicle 
deviates from its lane. Press the LDA switch to activate the system.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system before attempting 
to use it.
