3606-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
COROLLA HV_UThe defoggers will
automatically
turn off after a while.
When the rear window and outside
rear view mirror defoggers switch is
on, the indicator illuminates on the
rear window and ou tside rear view
mirror defoggers switch.
■Eco air conditioning mode
The air conditioning is controlled
with low fuel consumption priori-
tized such as reducing fan
speed, etc.
Press the eco air conditioning
mode switch.
When the eco air conditioning
mode is on, the indicator illumi-
nates on the eco air conditioning
mode switch.
■When the outside temperature
exceeds 75°F (24°C) and the air
conditioning system is on
●In order to reduce the air condi-
tioning power consumption, the air
conditioning system may switch to
recirculated air mode automati-
cally. This may also reduce fuel
consumption.
●Recirculated air mode is selected
as a default mode when the power
switch is turned to ON.
●It is possible to switch to outside
air mode at any time by pressing
the outside air mode switch.
■Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up
when the humidity in the vehicle is
high. Turning “A /C” on will dehu-
midify the air from the outlets and
defog the windshield effectively.
●If you turn “A/C” o ff, the windows
may fog up more easily.
●The windows may fog up if the
recirculated air mode is used.
■Outside/recirculated air mode
●When driving on du sty roads such
as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set
the outside/recirculated air mode
switch to the recirculated air
mode. This is effective in prevent-
ing outside air from entering the
vehicle interior. During cooling
operation, setting the recirculated
air mode will also cool the vehicle
interior effectively.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may
automatically switch depending on
the temperature setting or the
inside temperature.
■Eco air conditioning mode
When Eco drive mode is selected
using the driving mode select
switch, eco air conditioning mode
turns on.
When a drive mode other than Eco
drive mode is sele cted, eco air con-
ditioning mode may turn off.
■Operation of the air condition-
ing system in Eco drive mode
●In Eco drive mode, the air condi-
tioning system is controlled as fol-
lows to prioritize fuel efficiency:
• Engine speed and compressor operation controlled to restrict
heating/cooling capacity
• Fan speed restri cted when auto-
matic mode is selected
●To improve air conditioning perfor-
mance, perform the following
operations:
• Turn off eco air conditioning mode ( P.360)
• Adjust the fan speed
• Turn off Eco drive mode ( P.219)
■When the outside temperature
falls to nearly 32°F (0°C)
The dehumidification function may
not operate even when “A/C” switch
is pressed.
■Ventilation and air conditioning

mode.
●During use, various odors from
inside and outside the vehicle may
enter into and a ccumulate in the
air conditioning system. This may
then cause odor to be emitted
from the vents.
●To reduce potential odors from
occurring:
• It is recommended that the air
conditioning system be set to out-
side air mode prior to turning the
vehicle off.
• The start timing of the blower may
be delayed for a short period of
time immediately after the air con-
ditioning system is started in auto-
matic mode.
●When parking, the system auto-
matically switches to outside air
mode to encourage better air cir-
culation throughout the vehicle,
helping to reduce odors that occur
when starting the vehicle.

sible immediately after reconnect-
ing the 12-volt battery. If this
happens, use the wireless remote
control or the mechanical key to
lock/unlock the doors.
●Start the hybrid system with the
power switch in ACC. The hybrid
system may not start with the
power switch turned off. However,
the hybrid system will operate nor-
mally from the second attempt.
●The power switch mode is
recorded by the vehicle. If the
12-volt battery is reconnected, the
vehicle will return the power
switch mode to the status it was in
before the 1 2-volt battery was dis-
connected. Make sure to turn off
the power before disconnecting
the 12-volt battery. Take extra
care when connecting the 12-volt
battery if the power switch mode
prior to discharge is unknown.

■When inspecting or replacing
tires
Observe the following precautions
to prevent accidents.
Failure to do so may cause dam-
age to parts of the drive train as
well as dangerous handling char-
acteristics, which may lead to an
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
●Do not mix tires of different
makes, models or tread pat-
terns.
Also, do not mix tires of remark-
ably different treadwear.
●Do not use tire si zes other than
those recommended by Toyota.
●Do not mix differently con-
structed tires (radial, bias-belted
or bias-ply tires).
●Do not mix summer, all season
and snow tires.
●Do not use tires that have been
used on another vehicle.
Do not use tires if you do not
know how they were used previ-
ously.
NOTICE
■If tire inflation pressure of
each tire becomes low while
driving
Do not continue driving, or your
tires and/or wheels may be
ruined.
■Driving on rough roads
Take particular care when driving
on roads with loose surfaces or
potholes.
These conditions may cause
losses in tire inflation pressure,
reducing the cush ioning ability of

nals, contact you r Toyota dealer.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt
battery will discha rge gradually even
when the vehicle i s not in use, due
to natural dischar ge and the drain-
ing effects of certain electrical appli-
ances. If the vehicle is left for a long
time, the 12-volt battery may dis-
charge, and the hybrid system may
be unable to start. (The 12-volt bat-
tery recharges automatically while
the hybrid system is operating.)
