EV driving range
The value displayed on the multi-information display etc. (P. 215,
231, 238, 255) is estimated from the following information.
OThe amount of hybrid battery (traction battery) charge currently
remaining
OThe electricity consumption (the estimated distance that can be
driven in EV mode per unit of electrical energy) based on the
recorded value
OPast air conditioning system electricity consumption amount
The electricity consumption varies depending on how the vehicle is
driven. The vehicle automatically records the electricity consumption
when being charged and uses the electricity consumption for estimat-
ing the EV driving range. Therefore, the EV driving range displayed
when the hybrid battery (traction battery) is fully charged may differ
from the previous EV driving range depending on how the vehicle was
driven.
The EV driving range may change significantly with each charging
until the electricity consumption based on the recorded value is stable
(for approximately the first month or two). However, this does not indi-
cate a malfunction.
When the air conditioning system is turned on, the EV driving range
(with using the air conditioning system) is estimated based on the past
air conditioning electricity consumption amount considering that the
electricity consumption may become higher.
The EV driving range displayed on the multi-information display
etc. shows the reference distance that EV driving (driving using
only the electric motor) is possible, and the actual distance that
can be driven may differ from that displayed.
Even if the EV driving range is displayed, EV driving may be can-
celed and both gasoline engine and electric motor are used depend-
ing on the situation. (P. 9 4 )

The distance that can be driven in EV mode varies significantly
depending on how the vehicle is driven, road conditions, the weather,
the outside temperature, usage conditions of electrical components
and the number of occupants.
The distance that can be driven in EV mode can be extended if the fol-
lowing is performed:
OMaintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front and avoid unnec-
essary acceleration and deceleration
OAccelerate and decelerate the vehicle as smoothly as possible
ODrive at moderate speeds as much as possible and maintain a con-
stant speed
O
Set the air conditioning to a moderate temperature and turn the “A/C”
switch ( ) off when it is not needed
OUse tires of the specified size and maintain the specified tire pres-
sure
OUse the EV/HV mode selection switch to drive in HV mode when
driving on a highway
Electricity consumption will increase substantially when driving on a
highway in EV mode.
ODo not add unnecessary weight to the vehicle
The following indicate that charging has been carried out properly.
OThe charging indicator turns off
OThe Hybrid battery (traction battery) status indicators illuminate for
approximately 15 seconds. (P. 1 1 3 )
O“Charging Complete” is displayed on the multi-information display
when starting off (P. 149)
Regardless of the type of power source or whether the charging
schedule function is used, charging is completed if the above can be
confirmed.

Opening the charging port lid
Press the rear edge of the
charging port lid (the position
shown in the illustration) with
the doors unlocked.
Push and take your hand away
to slightly open the charging port
lid. Then open the lid fully by
hand.
While the doors are locked, only
the charging port lid can be
unlocked by carrying an elec-
tronic key and pressing the
charging port lid. (P. 1 3 1 )
Q
Closing the charging port lid
Close the charging port lid and
press the rear edge of the
charging port lid (the position
shown in the illustration).
When the doors are locked with
the smart entry & start system,
wireless remote control or door
lock switch, the charging port lid
is also locked. (P. 273, 275)
If the charging port lid is closed
with the doors locked, the
charging port lid locks.

The illumination/flashing pattern
changes to inform the user of the
charging status in the following
ways.
*1: If equipped
*2: Turns off after flashing for a certain period of time.
QCharging indicator
When a system malfunction occurs while charging or using the Remote Air
Conditioning System, the charging indicator rapidly flashes for a certain
period of time, and then turns off.
If this occurs, the next time the hybrid system is started, a message is dis-
played on the multi-information display. When a message is displayed, follow
the instructions displayed on the screen.

Q Charging cable types
The following charging modes are categorized according to the a vailability of
a charging control device, which detects malfunctions such as e lectrical leak-
ages, and its location (whether it is attached to the charger o r charging
cable). The type of charging cable that can be used differs acc ording to the
charging mode.

Charging modeOutline
Mode 1
A charging method which does not use charging
control to detect electrical leakages between an
external power source and the vehicle.
Does not apply to this vehicle.
Mode 2
A charging method which connects the vehicle to an
external power source through a charging cable
equipped with a CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting
Device).
Applies to charging through most household sock-
ets.
Mode 3
A charging method which charges from a charger
(such as at a public charging station) equipped with
charging control to detect electrical leakages. Con-
trol to detect electrical leakages is implemented on
the charger side. Therefore, a CCID (Charging Cir-
cuit Interrupting Device) is not equipped to the
charging cable.
Not all chargers are equipped with charging cables.
If there is no charging cable available, use the Mode
3 charging cable equipped to this vehicle. (if
equipped)
