Charging the traction
battery (Electric)
To recharge, connect the vehicle to a domestic electricity supply (domestic or accelerated charging) or to a fast public charger (superfast charging).For a full charge, follow the desired charging procedure without pausing it, until it ends
automatically. Charging can be either immediate or deferred (except fast public charger, mode 4).You can stop domestic or accelerated charging at any time by unlocking the vehicle and removing the nozzle. For superfast charging, refer to the fast public charger.For more information on the charging displays on the Instrument panel and the Touch screen, refer to the corresponding section.
NOTIC E
It is also possible to monitor the charging progress using the MyToyota application (Available soon).For more information on Remote functions, refer to the corresponding section.
NOTIC E
Lounge modeWhen the vehicle is connected, it is possible to switch on the ignition and use certain functions such as the audio and telematics system and the air conditioning system for several hours.
WARNI NG
As a safety measure, the engine will not start if the charging cable is plugged into the connector on the vehicle. A warning is displayed on the instrument panel.
NOTIC E
Cooling the traction batteryThe cooling fan in the engine compartment comes on during charging to cool the on-board charger and the traction battery.
NOTIC E
Vehicle immobilised for 1 to 12 monthsDischarge the traction battery down to 2 or 3 bars on the charge level indicator on the instrument panel.Do not connect the charging cable.
Always park the vehicle in a place with temperatures between -10°C and 30°C (parking in a place with extreme temperatures can damage the traction battery).Disconnect the cable from the (+) terminal of the accessory battery in the engine compartment.Connect a 12 V battery charger to the (+) and (-) terminals of the accessory battery about
every 3 months in order to recharge the accessory battery and maintain an operating voltage.

If in doubtDomestic or accelerated charging: do not remain inside or near the vehicle, or near the charging cable or charging unit, even for a short time.Superfast charging: do not use the system yourself and avoid approaching public fast
charging points. Leave the area and ask a third party to recharge the vehicle.
For domestic or accelerated charging
WARNI NG
Before chargingDepending on the context:► Have a professional check that the electrical system to be used complies with applicable standards and is compatible with the vehicle.► Have a professional electrician install a dedicated domestic power socket or accelerated charging unit (Wallbox) compatible with the vehicle.You should preferably use the charging cable available as an accessory.For more information, contact a any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNI NG
(During charging)While charging is in progress, unlocking the vehicle will cause the charging to stop.If no action is taken on one of the openings (door or boot) or on the charging nozzle, the vehicle will lock again after 30 seconds and charging will resume automatically.
Never work under the bonnet:– Some areas remain very hot, even an hour after charging ends - risk of burns!– The fan may start at any time - risk of cuts or strangulation!
WARNI NG
After chargingCheck that the charging flap is closed.Do not leave the cable connected to the domestic power socket - risk of short-circuit or electrocution in the event of contact with or immersion in water!
For superfast charging
NOTIC E
Before chargingCheck that the fast public charging station and its charging cable are compatible with the vehicle.
If the exterior temperature is below:– 0°C, charging times may be extended.– -20°C, charging is still possible, but charging times may be extended even further (the battery has to be heated first).

Energy economy mode
System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of charge in the battery.After switching off the engine and for a maximum cumulative period of around 40 minutes, you can continue to use functions such as the audio and telematics system, the wipers, the dipped beam
headlamps, the courtesy lamps, etc.
Switching to the mode
A message indicating that the vehicle has switched to economy mode is displayed on the instrument panel screen and the active functions are put on standby.
NOTIC E
If a telephone call is in progress at the time, it will be maintained for around 10 minutes using your audio system’s hands-free system.
Exiting the mode
These functions will be automatically reactivated the next time the vehicle is used.In order to restore the use of these functions immediately, start the engine and let it run:– for less than 10 minutes, to use the equipment for approximately 5 minutes,– for more than 10 minutes, to use the equipment for approximately 30 minutes.
Let the engine run for the duration specified to ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the engine in order to charge the battery.
WARNI NG
A flat battery prevents the engine from starting.For more information on the 12 V battery, refer to the corresponding section.
Load reduction mode
System that manages the use of certain functions according to the level of charge remaining in the battery.When the vehicle is being driven, the load reduction function temporarily deactivates certain
functions, such as the air conditioning and the heated rear screen.The deactivated functions are reactivated automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
