HV mode while on the free-
way and change to EV mode
or AUTO EV/HV mode after
leaving the freeway. (P.78)
 Turn the “A/C” switch off
when it is not needed. Doing
so can help reduce excessive
electricity and fuel consump-
tion.
In summer: When the ambient tem-
perature is high, use the recircu-
lated air mode. Doing so will help to
reduce the burden on the air condi-
tioning system and reduce electric-
ity and fuel consumption as well.
In winter: Avoid excessive and
unnecessary use o f the heater.
Usage of the heated steering wheel
(if equipped) ( P.401) and seat
heaters ( P.402) are effective.
 Using the Remote Air Condi-
tioning System ( P.399)
while the AC charging cable is
connected to the vehicle can
reduce electricity consump-
tion immediately after starting
off by operating air condition-
ing mainly using electricity
from an external power
source.
 When setting the charging
schedule, setting the charging
mode to “Departure” and “Cli-
mate Prep” to on can reduce
electricity consumption imme-
diately after starting off by
operating air conditioning before charging is completed.
(
P.130)
Make sure to check the tire infla-
tion pressure frequently. If there
is improper tire inflation pres-
sure in the tires, the EV driving
range will become shorter, and
fuel consumption when in HV
mode will increase.
Also, as snow tires can cause
large amounts of friction, their
use on dry roads can lead to
increased fuel and electricity
consumption.
Carrying heavy luggage will lead
to poor fuel economy. Avoid car-
rying unnecessary luggage.
Installing a large roof rack will
also cause poor fuel economy.
Since the gasoline engine starts
up and cuts out automatically,
warming up is not necessary.

of occupants.
The distance that EV driving is
possible can be extended if the
following is performed:
■When starting off, depress
the accelerator pedal
smoothly to accelerate
As a guide, accelerate up to
approximately 12mph (20 km/h)
in the first 5 seconds.
Electrical and fuel efficiency can
be improved just by using the
ECO Accelerator Guidance dis-
played on the multi-information
display and taking care to start
off gently. ( P.173)
When the driving mode is set to
Eco drive mode, depressing the
accelerator pedal generates
smooth torque that makes it easier
to operate the accelerator gently.
At the same time, the air condition-
ing control is switched to eco air
conditioning mode ( P.391) to
reduce the strength of the air condi-
tioning operation.
■Maintain sufficient vehicle-
to-vehicle distance and do
not accelerate or decelerate
unnecessarily
Try to maintain a fixed speed
while driving. Driving at a short
vehicle-to-vehicle distance will
result in repeating wasteful
acceleration and deceleration,
which will worsen the electrical
and fuel efficiency.
■Release the accelerator
pedal early before stopping
the vehicle, such as at a
traffic light
The regenerative brake will
operate to convert the kinetic
energy of the vehicle into electri-
cal energy, which will charge the
hybrid battery (traction battery).
The regeneration status can be
checked from the Hybrid Sys-
tem Indicator. ( P.167)
When the brake pedal is
depressed lightly during decel-
eration, the regeneration
amount increases, enabling
more electrical energy to be
recovered.
If the brake pedal is depressed too
strongly, the recovered amount
indicator will reac h the maximum
level and the upper limit of the
recoverable energy will be
exceeded. Theref ore, be sure to
operate the brak e pedal early.
■Use the air conditioning
system appropriately, and
also utilize the heated steer-
ing wheel (if equipped) and
seat heaters
In EV mode, the vehicle is
cooled and heated by electrical
energy. (Except in extremely
cold temperatures of approxi-
mately 14°F (-10°C) or less.)
Preventing excessive cooling or
heating of the vehicle will reduce
power consumption and
improve electrical efficiency.

Plug-in hybrid system
When eco air conditioning mode
is used, the air conditioning con-
trol is switched automatically to
a lower setting. (P.391)
The heated steering wheel (if
equipped) and seat heaters are
efficient heating device that
directly warm the body using
less electric power.
When used togethe r with the air
conditioning system, a low tem-
perature setting can be used to
improve electrical and fuel effi-
ciency.
■Check the tire pressure
If the tire pressure is lower than
the specified value, it will
worsen the electrical and fuel
efficiency.
A pressure level 7 psi (50 kPa, 0.5
kgf/cm
2 or bar) lower than the spec-
ified value will cause a worsening of
several percentage points.
■When driving on highways,
use the EV/HV mode selec-
tion switch to drive in HV
mode
The power consumption will
increase significantly if the vehi-
cle is driven in EV mode on
highways.
■Do not load unnecessary
objects in the vehicle
Driving with objects weighing
220 lb. (100 kg) in the vehicle
will worsen the electrical and
fuel efficiency by approximately
3%. Air resistance also greatly
affects electrical and fuel effi-
ciency. Remove any exterior
accessories such as a roof lug-
gage carrier when they are not
being used.
The running resistance of snow
tires is high and they will worsen
electrical and fuel efficiency.
Replace them with standard
tires as soon as they are no lon-
ger needed.
■Know your vehicle’s electri-
cal and fuel efficiency
If you know your vehicle’s daily
electrical and fuel efficiency, you
will understand the benefits of
Eco drive.
Use the Power Consump-
tion/Fuel Economy, ECO Accel-
erator Guidance/“Eco Score”
and other data displayed on the
multi-information display.
The following indicate that
charging has been carried out
properly.
 The charging indicator of the
charging port turns off
 “Charging Complete” is dis-
played on the multi-informa-
tion display when a door is
opened with the power switch
off ( P.119)

WARNING
■When charging
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause an
unexpected accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
●Connect to a power source suit-
able for charging. ( P.111)
●Check that the AC charging
cable, plug and outlet are free of
foreign matter.
●Before charging, check that the
AC charging inlet is not
deformed, damaged or cor-
roded, and check that the inlet
is free of foreign matter such as
dirt, snow and ice.
If there is dirt or dust in these
areas, remove completely
before inserting the charging
connector.
●Do not get the terminals of the
AC charging inlet wet.
●Only use outlets where the plug
can be securely inserted.
●Do not bundle or wind the AC
charging cable while charging,
as doing so may result in over-
heating.
●Do not touch the terminals of
the charging connector and AC
charging inlet with a sharp metal
objects (needles etc.) or hands,
or short them with foreign
objects.
●When charging outdoors, make
sure to connect to a weather-
proof outlet for outdoor use.
Ensure the weatherproof outlet
cover closes completely. If the
weatherproof outlet cover can-
not be closed, install a weather-
proof outlet cover that will close.
●In order to stop charging at the
charging station, follow the
instructions of the charger.
●If any heat, smoke, odors, noise
or other abnormalities are
noticed during charging, stop
charging immediately.
●Do not insert the plug if the out-
let is submerge d in water or
snow.
●When charging while it is raining
or snowing, do not connect or
disconnect the plug if your
hands are wet. Also, do not get
the plug or outlet wet.
●Do not charge the vehicle
during a lightning storm.
●Prevent the AC charging cable
from being caught in the door or
back door.
●Do not let the wheels on the AC
charging cable, plug, charging
connector and CCID (Charging
Circuit Interru pting Device).
●Firmly insert the plug into the
outlet.
●Do not use an extension cord
and converting adaptor.
●Close the hood before using the
charging system. The cooling
fan may start operating sud-
denly. Touching or getting close
to rotating parts such as the fan
may cause your hands or
clothes (especially a necktie or
scarf) to becom e caught and
result in a serious injury.
●After connecting the charging
cable, confirm that it is not
wound around anything.
