Mode””
The power consumption inside the vehi-
cle is greater than the power being
charged to the hybrid battery (traction
battery), and the remaining charge of
the hybrid battery (traction battery) is
low.*
• “My Room Mode” will end unless the power consumption inside the vehicle is improved.
• To continue using “My Room Mode”, turn off the power of systems such as the air conditioning system and audio
system to increase the remaining charge of the hybrid battery (traction battery).*: The power balance status during “My
Room Mode” can be checked from the
remaining charge display screen for
the hybrid battery (traction battery)
displayed on the multi-information dis-
play.
WARNING
QCautions for using “My Room Mode”
Make sure to observe the following
precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious health problems or even death.
ODo not leave children, people who need assistance, or pets inside the
vehicle. The system may turn off automatically and the interior tem-perature may become high or low,
resulting in heat stroke, dehydration or hypothermia. Devices such as the wipers can also be used, which
may lead to mistaken operation and an accident.
OCheck the safety around the vehicle carefully before use.

QCharging indicator of the charging port flashes and charging can-
not be carried out.
*: Refer to P.106 for details regarding charging indicator of the charging port illumi-
nation and flashing.
Refer to the following table and carry out the appropriate correction proce-
dure.
QCannot charge at desired time
Likely causeCorrection procedure
When charging indicator of the charging
port flashes
*: charging schedule is regis-
tered
When you wish to charge according to
the charging schedule, wait until the set
time.
To start charging, set “Charge Now” to
on. (P.149)
When charging indicator of the charging
port rapidly flashes
*: Malfunction
occurred in an external power source or
the vehicleStart the hybrid system and follow the
instructions displayed by the message on
the multi-information display. (P.159)
When charging schedule function does not operate normally
Likely causeCorrection procedure
Vehicle clock is not properly adjustedCheck the clock settings and adjust it to
the proper time. (P.177)
The vehicle calendar is not set correctly.Check the calendar setting and set it to
the correct date. (P.184)
AC charging cable is not connected to
vehicleBefore using the charging schedule, con-
nect the AC charging cable.
Incorrect charging mode selected
Check the charging mode setting.
(P.143)
When the charging mode is “Start”,
charging starts at the set time, but when
it is “Departure”, charging is completed
by the set time. (The charging start time
is automatically controlled by the sys-
tem.)

1582-2. Charging
QCharging starts, even though charging schedule is registered
Likely causeCorrection procedure
“Charge Now” is set to on
When charging according to the charging
schedule, set “Charge Now” to off.
(P.149)
charging schedule is set to offCheck that charging schedule is not set
to off. (P.148)
Charging mode is set to “Departure” and
schedule departure time is close to cur-
rent timeWhen the system determines that there
is no time to finish charging by the set
scheduled departure time, it starts
charging. Check the charging schedules.
AC charging cable was removed and
reinserted while charging indicator of the
charging port was flashing
If the AC charging cable is removed and
reinserted while the charging indicator is
flashing, the charging schedule is can-
celed (P.137).
Temporarily remove the AC charging
cable, and then reconnect it.
The “My Room Mode” or the Remote Air
Conditioning System was operated
When the “My Room Mode” or the
Remote Air Conditioning System is oper-
ated, the system will start charging, even
if the charging schedule is registered. To
carry out charging using the charging
schedule, stop the “My Room Mode” or
the Remote Air Conditioning System,
and then reconnect the AC charging
cable.
“Battery Heater” (P.127) operated
When the charging mode is set to
“Departure”, “Battery Heater” may oper-
ate before charging starts. Check the
status of the charging indicator of the
charging port. (P.106)
Outside temperature is low and hybrid
battery (traction battery) warming control
(P.128) operated (Greenland only)
When hybrid battery (traction battery)
warming control operates, the charging
schedules are ignored and charging
starts. In order to protect the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery), allow charging to
continue.
