TIPS FOR IMPROVED FUEL ECONOMY
STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are
shown on the Entune™ Audio system screen or the navigation system.
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline \
engine
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power fo\
r the vehicle.
To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking force genera\
tes
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, reduc\
ed vehicle
emissions and improved performance.
- 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 ene\
rgy.
- Minimize use of the air conditioning.

As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to f\
irst provide an
alert and then automatic braking if needed.In certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS-P package ma\
y also
help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle. With Toyota Safety\
Sense™ P,
PCS uses an in-vehicle camera and front-grill mounted millimeter-wave ra\
dar to
help detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle in certain conditions.\
The in-vehicle
camera of PCS detects a potential pedestrian based on size, profile, and\
motion of
the detected pedestrian. However, a pedestrian may not be detected depen\
ding
on the conditions, including the surrounding brightness and the motion, \
posture,
size, and angle of the potential detected pedestrian, preventing the sys\
tem from
operating or engaging. Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information.
