◆“Fuel Consumption Record”
The transitions of the average fuel consumption after the hybrid
system starts can be checked in such a unit as every 5 minutes or
every 1 mile (1.6 km)
*1 or 1 km (0.6 mile)*2 of driving. Also, it is
possible to check the average fu el consumption history for each
month by switching to the “Monthly” display.
*1: When the unit is set to “MPH”
*2: When the unit is set to “km/h”
■
How to read the screen
The “5 min” display is shown as an example. However, the basic
method for how to read the screen is the same for each fuel con-
sumption history screen.

displayed history moves
towards the left side and the old-
est record is deleted.

*1: This record is reset each time the hybrid system stops.
*2: The maximum value of the graph can be switched in 3 levels (150 MPG,100 MPG and 50 MPG) by operating the or of the meter control
switches while the “Monthly” tab display is selected.
*3: The “Monthly” record can be reset on the “Meter Customize” settingsscreen. ( P. 142)

◆“Eco Savings”
“Gasoline Price”
*1 and “COMP. Consumption” information is regis-
tered in the “Meter Customize” settings ( P. 142), making it possi-
ble to display 2 types of information related to gasoline fuel
consumption.
“SAVINGS”
If information about th e vehicle used to comp are fuel consumption
(“COMP. Consumption”) is entered, when the fuel consumption of
this vehicle according to the mileage of the trip meter
*2 is greater
than that of the comparis on vehicle, an estimation
*3 of the amount
of the fuel cost savings is displayed.
“FUEL COST”
If information about th e vehicle used to comp are fuel consumption
(“COMP. Consumption”) is not entered, an estimation
*3 of the
amount of fuel cost savings is displayed according to the mileage of
the trip meter
*2.
*1: “Gasoline Price” is information necessary to display the “SAVINGS” and “FUEL COST” records.
*2: The display can be switched from the mileage history to the history bymonth. ( P. 130)
*3: The displayed amount is only an estimate, and may differ from the

4-4. Refueling
Opening the fuel tank cap
●Close all the doors and windows, and turn the power switch off.
● Confirm the type of fuel.
■Fuel types
P. 737
■ Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline
To help prevent incorrect fueling, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening that
only accommodates the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.
■ Gasoline price setting screen
After refueling more than approximately 1.3 gal. (5 L, 1.1 Imp.gal.) and turn-
ing the power switch to ON mode, the gasoline price setting screen will be
automatically displayed on the multi-information display. ( P. 128)
The fuel tank of your vehicle has a special structure, which
requires a reduction in fuel tank pressure before refueling. After
the opener switch has been pressed, it will take several seconds
until the vehicle is ready for refueling.

8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
If the hybrid system will not star t
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
●The electronic key may not be functioning properly.
* ( P. 708)
● There may not be sufficient fuel in the vehicle’s tank.
Refuel the vehicle. ( P. 84)
● There may be a malfunction in the immobilizer system.
* ( P. 8 9 )
● There may be a malfunction in the shift control system.
*
( P. 228, 671)
● The hybrid system may be malfunctioning due to an electrical prob-
lem such as electronic key battery depletion or a blown fuse. How-
ever, depending on the type of malfunction, an interim measure is
available to start the hybrid system. ( P. 707)
● There is a possibility that the temperature of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) is extremely low (approximately below -22°F
[-30°C]). ( P. 84, 228)
*: It may not be possible to shift the shift position other than P.
One of the following may be the cause of the problem:
● The 12-volt battery may be discharged. ( P. 7 1 1 )
● The 12-volt battery terminal con nections may be loose or corroded.
( P. 598)
Reasons for the hybrid system not starting vary depending on
the situation. Check the follo wing and perform the appropriate
procedure:
The hybrid system will not start even though the correct starting
procedure is being followed. ( P. 225)
The interior lights and headlights are dim, or the horn does not
sound or sounds at a low volume.

NOTICE
■Notice on fuel quality
●Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be
damaged.
● Do not use leaded gasoline.
Leaded gasoline can cause damage to your vehicle’s three-way catalytic
converters causing the emission control system to malfunction.
● Do not use gasohol other than the type previously stated.
Other gasohol may cause fuel system damage or vehicle performance
problems.
● Using unleaded gasoline with an octane number or rating lower than the
level previously stated will cause persistent heavy knocking.
At worst, this will lead to engine damage.
■ Fuel-related poor driveability
If poor driveability (poor hot starting, vaporization, engine knocking, etc.) is
encountered after using a different type of fuel, discontinue the use of that
type of fuel.
■ When refueling with gasohol
Take care not to spill gasohol. It can damage your vehicle’s paint.
