TIPS FOR IMPROVED FUEL ECONOMY
STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are 
shown on the Multi-Information Display (MID) screen or the audio system 
screen.
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 and reduced 
vehicle emissions.
- Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’s Manual.
- When possible, link trips to reduce engine cold starts. 
- Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway.
- When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
- Minimize use of the air conditioning.
1. Put the shift lever in “P.”
2. Depress the brake pedal, and “
” will be displayed on the Multi-Information 
Display (MID).
3. Press the “POWER” button briefly and firmly.    
4. The “READY” light will blink. After a few seconds, when the light remains steady 
and a beep sounds, you may begin driving.
