played, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
• When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 12 mph [20 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.
■ Distance to empty
●This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumptio n. As a

◆Energy monitor
The energy monitor can be used to check the vehicle drive status,
hybrid system operation status and energy regeneration status.
When energy is flowing, an arrow appears and a bright point of light
moves to show the direction of the flow of energy. When energy is
not flowing, the bright poin t of light are not displayed.
Gasoline engine
Electric motor
(traction motor)
Hybrid battery
(traction battery)
Tire
Bright point of light showing
the flow of energy
As an example, all arrows are shown in the illustration, but the actual con-
tents of the display will differ.
(Display example)
● When the hybrid battery (traction battery) is being charged, th e
bright point of li ght moves towards .
● During driving, the bright point of light moves from or (or
both depending on the s ituation) towards .
*
●During driving, the image of the tires rotates.
*: The display may differ depending on the driving status.

■Hybrid battery (traction battery) status
●The display changes in 8 levels according to the remaining char ge amount
of the hybrid battery (traction battery).
● The hybrid battery (traction battery) status is also displayed on the following
screen, but the contents of the display are the same.
• Sub-screen of the main display ( P. 120)
• Hybrid System Indicator ( P. 127)
• Head-up display (if equipped) ( P. 155)
● The charge amount of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is automatically
controlled by the hybrid system. For this reason, even if electricity is recov-
ered via the regenerative braking, or electricity is generated via the gasoline
engine, the displayed hybrid battery (traction battery) charge amount may
not reach the highest level (level 8). However, this does not i ndicate a mal-
function.
■ Remaining charge amount warning of hybrid battery (traction battery)
●The buzzer sounds intermittently when the hybrid battery (traction battery)
remains without charging while the shift position is in N, or t he remaining
charge amount drops below a certain level.
If the remaining charge amount drops further, the buzzer sounds continu-
ously.
● When a warning message is shown on the multi-information display and the
buzzer sounds, follow the instructions displayed on the screen to perform
troubleshooting. Low

How to read the display
Charge area
Shows that energy is being recovered via the regenerative charging.
Eco area
Shows that the vehicle is being driven in an Eco-friendly manne r.
Power area
Shows that an Eco-friendly driving range is being exceeded (dur ing full
power driving etc.)
Hybrid Eco area*1

● By keeping the indicator within Eco area, more Eco-friendly dri v-
ing can be achieved.
● Charge area indicates regeneration
*4 status. Regenerated
energy will be used to charge the hybrid battery (traction battery).
*1: Not displayed on the sub-screen.
*2: Not displayed on the sub-screen or head-up display.
*3: The EV indicator function can be turned off in the “Meter Cust omize”
settings. ( P. 151)
*4: When used in this manual, “regeneration” refers to the conversion of
energy created by the movement of the vehicle into electrical e nergy.

“ECO Accelerator Guidance”
A blue zone is displayed in the
Eco area which can be used as
a reference operation range for
using the accelerator pedal
according to driving conditions
such as starting off and cruis-
ing.
The “ECO Accelerator Guid-
ance” display changes accord-
ing to the driving status, such as
when starting off or cruising.
It is easier to drive in an Eco-friendly manner by driving according to the
display showing the accelerator pedal operations and staying wi thin the
“ECO Accelerator Guidance” range. ( P. 225)
The “ECO Accelerator Guidance” function can be turned off in the
“Meter Customize” settings. ( P. 151)

■Eco score
The driving status for the following 3 situations are evaluated in 5
levels: Smooth start-off acceleration (“Eco-Start”), driving wi thout
sudden acceleration (“Eco-Cruise”) and smooth stopping (“Eco-
Stop”). Each time the vehicle i s stopped, a score result is displayed
out of a perfect score of 100 points.
Score result
“Eco-Start” status
“Eco-Cruise” status
“Eco-Stop” status
How to read the bar display:
*: For items not currently evaluated, the display reads 0.
● The Eco score is reset each time the vehicle starts off to star t a new
evaluation.
● When the shift position is P, only the Eco score display area i s
enlarged and displayed. When the shift position is shifted from P,
the display returns to normal.
● When the hybrid system stops, the current total score result an d
advice on how to increase th e score are displayed. (P. 102)

■When operation of each function stops
● The Hybrid System Indicator stops operating in the following si tuations.
• The “READY” indicator is not illuminated.
• The shift position is not D or B.
● The Eco score and “ECO Accelerator Guidance” stop operating in the fol-
lowing situations.
• The Hybrid System Indicator is not operating.
• Cruise control (if equipped) or dynamic radar cruise control w ith full-
speed range (if equipped) is being used.
■ About the Eco score
●After starting off, Eco score display does not start until the vehicle speed
exceeds approximately 12 mph (20 km/h).
● In addition to the vehicle driving status, the Eco score also e valuates the air
conditioning system usage condition ( P. 146). The score displayed when
the hybrid system stops is the total result of the driving stat us after the
hybrid system starts and the air conditioning usage condition.
■ Predictive Efficient Drive (Pre dictive Deceleration Support) (vehicles
with 11.6-inch display)
When a predictive deceleration support point registered in the navigation sys-
tem is approached, the system turns off the Eco accelerator gui de and
informs the driver of releasing the accelerator pedal early.
For details about Predictive Efficient Drive (Predictive Decele ration Support),
refer to the “NAVIGATION S YSTEM OWNER’S MANUAL”.
