Before driving
PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47A11U_(U)
How to charge
This vehicle has been designed to allow charging from an external
power source using a charging cable for exclusive use with standard
household AC outlets.
However, the vehicle differs greatly from standard household electri-
cal goods in the following ways, and incorrect usage could cause
fire or electric shock, possibly leading to death or serious injury.
● The charging operation is designe d to operate at 12A continu-
ously for the charge dura tion (up to 3 hours).
● Charging can be conducted outdoors.
To charge properly, follow the pr ocedure after reading the explana-
tion below. Charging is intended to be carried out by licensed driv-
ers only who properly understand the charging procedure. Charging
should not be carried out by children.
When charging with a charging station, follow the procedures for
using the charging station.
■ Confirm the following before charging
●The parking brake is applied. ( P. 260)
● Lights such as the headlights, emergency flashers and interior
lights etc. are switched off.
If these light switches are turned ON, then these features will con-
sume electricity, and charging time will increase.
●The “POWER” switch is OFF. ( P. 244)
■ Items to be regularly inspected
P. 108

PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47A11U_(U)
■Operation signals
A buzzer sounds and the emergency flashers flash to indicate that the doors
have been locked/unlocked. (Locked: Once; Unlocked: Twice)
■ When the door cannot be locked by the lock sensor on the upper part
of the door handle
■ Alarms and warning lights
A combination of exterior and interior alarms as well as warning lights are
used to prevent theft of the vehicle and accidents resulting from erroneous
operation. Take appropriate measures in response to any warning message
shown on the multi-information display. ( P. 563)
The following table describes circumstances and correction procedures

sor areas at the same time.
