.When the remote heater and air condi-
tioner is set, the system operates the
heater and air conditioner to adjust the
in-cabin temperature to a set tempera-
ture.
. When the charge connector is discon-
nected from the vehicle, the heater and
air conditioner operates using vehicle
Li-ion battery electric power.
. If the remote heater and air conditioner
function and Li-ion battery charging are
performed at the same time, Li-ion
battery charging will take longer than
usual due to the power used to heat or
cool the vehicle.
. Certain remote functions require a
compatible smart phone, which is not
included with vehicle.

DISPLAYING ESTIMATED DRIVING
RANGE
The estimated driving range including the current
position or the destination is displayed on the
map screen depending on the charging status of
the vehicle. A destination or a waypoint can be
set on this screen.
INFO:
The estimated driving range map shows the
predicted area the vehicle can reach on the basis
of the estimated driving range that is indicated in
the meter. Driving habits, the actual road
environment (hills, etc.) , and traffic conditions
(traffic jams, etc.) will affect the actual available
range.
To display the estimated driving range, push
<
> and touch [Driving Range].
INFO:
Models with Li-ion battery warmer:
The estimated driving range will increase or
decrease when the air conditioner, heater or Li-
ion battery warmer is turned on or off, or the
vehicle is shifted between D (Drive) and ECO, or
when any other accessory is turned on or off
based on driving.
How to view driving range screen

displayed using the possible driving dis-
tance on the meter as a radius.
*2The normal estimated driving range is
displayed based on the current charging
condition.
*3[From Dest.]:
The estimated driving range around the
destination is displayed while setting the
route. If some waypoints are set, the nearest
waypoint from the current vehicle position is
centered on the estimated driving range map.

*5The possible driving distance is displayed
for each estimated driving range.
INFO:
When a route is set that includes waypoints, the
estimated driving range will be displayed based
on the nearest waypoint.
Setting a charging station as destina-
tion
While the estimated driving area is displayed on
the map screen, the spot where the cross pointer
is placed by moving the map can be set for the
destination.
1. Scroll the map, place the cross pointer over the preferred location, and touch [Go Here].
2. When a message asking if you wish to set the location as a destination, touch [Yes]. 3. The system sets the destination to the
selected location and starts calculating a
route.
INFO:
. This procedure only allows you to set a
destination or waypoint on the driving range
screen. The system does not automatically
set a desired charging station as a destina-
tion or waypoint. When a charging station
displayed on the map is set as a destination
by moving the map, zoom in the map and set
a point as a destination as precisely as
possible. If the destination is not set pre-
cisely, the system may provide guidance to a
location that is not a charging station.
. The driving range is displayed as a numeric
value above the destination or waypoint that
has been set. The values displayed here are
approximate and should only be used as a
guide.
. If setting a destination when the Li-ion
battery power level may be insufficient to
reach the set destination, the information for
charging stations is displayed, allowing you
to set a charging station as the destination.

TIMER FUNCTION OPERATION
This function enables the batteries to be charged
and the climate control to be turned on
automatically at a regular time and day of the
week.
SETTING TIMER CHARGE
Use charging timer to schedule when the Li-ion
battery charges. You can save two timer settings
that include the charging start time and end time.
One of the timer settings can be applied to each
day of the week. The vehicle automatically begins
charging at the scheduled times when the
charge connector is connected to the vehicle.
The timers do not need to be reset each time the
Li-ion battery needs to be charged.
1. Push<
>and touch [Charging Timer].
INFO:
Touch [Estimated Time] to view approximate
time required to reach 100% charge.

Operating tips for timer charge
. Charging timer is performed according to the
current time setting on the bottom left of the
display. When setting the charging timer
function, be sure to check that the current
time displayed is correct.
. The Li-ion battery may not be fully charged if
the charging timer start time and end time are
set such that there is not enough time to
charge the Li-ion battery.
. When either the charge start time or charge
end time is set, the charging timer function is
activated.
. When only the charging timer end time is set,
the system automatically determines when to
begin charging based on the Li-ion battery
charge level. The Li-ion battery may not be
fully charged if the charging timer end time is
set such that there is not enough time to
charge the Li-ion battery.
. When only the charging timer end time is set,
the system automatically starts charging so
that the Li-ion battery will be fully charged by
the set end time. Charging may stop before
the scheduled end time but this is not a
malfunction. .
To turn off the charging timer function, touch
[ON] on the timer charge setting screen until
the indicator lights are turned off. Touch
[Save] to apply the setting. If the settings
shown on the screen are correct, touch [OK].
After this operation has been performed, the
charging timer function is turned off. The
start and stop time settings are not deleted,
even if the charging timer function is turned
off.
. If the day of the week is not selected on the
timer charge setting screen, the charging
timer will not operate on that day. The system
will wait until the next set charging time to
perform charging.
. The timer setting can be changed while timer
charge is in operation. When the setting is
changed while timer charge is in operation,
the new settings are applied immediately and
charge operation stops once. After this, if the
power position is switched to OFF, charge
operation starts or enters waiting mode
depending on the new timer settings.
. When charging is set as the first priority, the
Climate Ctrl. Timer does not start until 10
segments (80%) of the Li-ion battery avail-
able charge gauge are illuminated.
2-11
2. Unique EV functions

.When the climate control is set as the first
priority, the Climate Ctrl. Timer will operate
when the remaining Li-ion battery power
displayed in the meter is 2 segments (15%)
or higher.
. The Li-ion battery will not charge when the
charge connector is connected to the vehicle
until the next scheduled charge start time
when the charge timer is active. If necessary,
use immediate charge or remote charge to
charge the Li-ion battery.
. Some charging stations used to perform
normal charge are equipped with timer
functions. If the charger timer function and
the vehicle timer are both set, and the two
timers are not set to operate at the same
time, it is possible that the charger will not
start or that the battery will not be fully
charged.
. The Li-ion battery may not be fully charged
when the Li-ion battery warmer (if so
equipped) operates while charging using
the Charging Timer.
. Set only the end time for the timer charging
when charging in cold weather. The vehicle
automatically determines when to start char-
ging to fully charge the Li-ion battery, even if
the Li-ion battery warmer (if so equipped) operates. Charging ends before the set end
time if the Li-ion battery is fully charged.
SETTING CLIMATE CTRL. TIMER
While the charger is connected to vehicle, this
function pre-heats or pre-cools the passenger
compartment of the vehicle to the set tempera-
ture before driving. This helps reduce power
consumption from the Li-ion battery.
“Unique EV function settings” (page 2-15)
The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the air condi-
tioner using power from the charger. Electric
power from the Li-ion battery is not used.
The Climate Ctrl. Timer function allows two
different timer settings. Each timer charge
function can be set to activate on a different
day of the week.
Once the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, it will
complete air conditioning by the time that is
set. It is not necessary to set the Climate Ctrl.
Timer everyday.
WARNING
Even if the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, the
temperature in the passenger compart-
ment may become high if the system
automatically stops. Do not leave chil-
dren or adults who would normally require the support of others alone in
your vehicle. Pets should not be left
alone either. On hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to people
or animals.
