●By keeping the indicator needle within Eco area, Eco-friendly driving can be achieved.
Hybrid Eco area shows that gasoline engine power is not being used very often.*

●Charge area indicates regeneration*2 status. Regenerated energy will be used to charge
the hybrid battery.
*
1: The gasoline engine will automatically stop and restart under various conditions.
*
2: When used in this manual, “regeneration” refers to the conversion of energy created by
the movement of the vehicle into electrical energy.
■Charging the battery
When shift position N is selected, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will not be charged.
Thus, select P when the vehicle is stopped.
In addition, when driving in heavy traffic, use D or B.
■Regenerative braking
The motor generator converts kinetic energy to electric energy when:
●The accelerator pedal is released while driving with shift position D or B selected.
●The brake pedal is depressed while driving with shift position D or B selected.
Your vehicle is a hybrid vehicle. It has characteristics different from conventional vehicles.
Be sure you are closely familiar with the characteristics of your vehicle, and operate with
care.
The hybrid system combines the use of a gasoline engine and an electric motor (traction
motor) according to driving conditions, improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust
emissions.
For details, refer to the “Owner's Manual”.
