Advice for driving fuel cell vehicles
◆Fuel cell system indicator usage
Maintaining the fuel cell system indicator to Eco area on the
multi-information display can extend your driving range. (P. 110)
◆Accelerator pedal/brake pedal operation
Drive the vehicle smoothly. Avo id abrupt acceleration and decel era-
tion.
Mild acceleration and decelerati on can help curb wasteful fuel con-
sumption.
◆When braking
Make sure to depress the brake gently and allow for a long stop ping
distance. This enables collectio n of more electrical energy gen er-
ated during deceleration.
◆Heavy traffic
Repeated acceleration and deceleration as well as long stops at
traffic lights, will decrease fuel economy. Check traffic reports
ahead of time and avoid traffic jams as much as possible. If ca ught
in a traffic jam, gently release the brake pedal to allow the v ehicle to
move forward slowly while avoiding overuse of the accelerator
pedal to help curb wasteful fuel consumption.
◆Driving with high power output
Similar to an electric vehicle, a fuel cell vehicle uses the mo st fuel in
high output driving such as driving on a steep uphill or at hig h
speeds. Moderate the vehicle speed and maintain a steady speed.
To maximize fuel economy and ra nge, pay attention to the fol-
lowing:

◆Using Eco drive mode
Using Eco drive mode (P. 181) makes torque generation less
aggressive than normal when stepping on the accelerator pedal,
leading to improvement in fuel economy.
Also, is displayed on the air conditioning screen, indicating
the switch to ECO HEAT/COOL mode ( P. 2 5 8 ) .
◆Air conditioning system on/off
● Turn off the air conditioning system operation switch except
when necessary to help curb fuel consumption.
In summer: When the ambient temperature is high, use the recircu -
lated air mode. This decreases the load on the air con-
ditioning system.
In winter: Avoid excess heating. Use the seat heater to minimize the need for cabin heating ( P. 266).
● By pushing , ECO HEAT/COOL mode is turned on. This
helps curb fuel consumption even with the air conditioning syst em
turned on.
◆Checking tire inflation pressure
Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure frequently. Impr oper
tire inflation pressure can cause poor fuel economy.
Additionally, snow tires have mo re rolling friction and their use on
dry roads lead to poor fuel economy. Use tires that are appropr iate
for the season.
◆Luggage
Avoid carrying unnecessary luggage and unload excess weight in
order avoid poor fuel economy. Installing a large roof rack wil l also
reduce fuel economy.

*2: The light flashes to indicate that the system is operating.
*3: The light turns on when the system is off.
*4: In order to confirm operation, the BSM outside rear view mirro r indicators
illuminate in the following situations:
• When the power switch is turned to ON mode while the BSM setti ngs are
set to ON.
• When the BSM settings are set to ON while the power switch is in ON
mode.
If the system is functioning correctly, the BSM outside rear vi ew mirror indi-
cators will turn off after a few seconds.
If the BSM outside rear view mirror indicators do not illuminat e or do not
turn off, there may be a malfunction in the system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota deale r.

WARNING
■If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS warning lights not
come on when you start the fuel cell system, this could mean that these
systems are not available to help protect you in an accident, which could
result in death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer immediately if this occurs.

Power restriction indicator
Blue: The fuel cell system output power is restricted, because the
coolant temperature is low.
Amber: The fuel cell system output power is restricted, because the
coolant temperature is high.
Outside temperature
Displays the outside temperature within the range of -40°F (-40 °C)
to 122°F (50°C).
Low outside temperature indicator flashes when the ambient tem-
perature is 37°F (3°C) or lower.

Outside temperature display
●In the following situations, the correct outside temperature ma y not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
• When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 16 mph [25 k m/h])
• When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entr ance/
exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
● When “--” or “E” is displayed, the system may be malfunctioning .
Take your vehicle to your Toyota dealer.
■ Liquid crystal display
Small spots or light spots may appear on the display. This phen omenon is
characteristic of liquid crystal displays, and there is no prob lem continuing to
use the display.
■ Customization
The meter display can be customized on the multi-information di splay.
(Customizable features: P. 439)
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the fuel cell system and its components
This vehicle is equipped with high coolant temperature warning light
( P. 369), instead of, coolant temperature gauge.
The fuel cell system may be overheating if the high coolant temperature
warning light flashes or comes on. In this case, immediately st op the
vehicle in a safe place, and che ck the fuel cell system after it has cooled
completely.
