FEATURES/OPERATIONS
(1) Put the selector lever in “P.”

(3) The “READY” light will blink. After a few seconds, when the light remains 
steady and a beep sounds, you may begin driving.
Starting your vehicle
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline engine 
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power for the 
vehicle. To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking force 
generates electricity which is then sent to the traction battery. In addition, 
the engine shuts off when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fuel 
economy, reduced vehicle emissions and improved performance.
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are 
shown on the Multi-Information Display (MID) and/or display audio 
system/navigation system screen (if equipped).
Tips for improved fuel economy
1. Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’s Manual.
2. Link trips to reduce engine cold starts whenever possible. 
3. Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway. 
4. When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
5. Minimize use of the air conditioning.
