■Outside temperature display
●In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
• When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 20 km/h [12 mph])
• When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/
exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
●When “-” or “E” is displayed, the system may be malfunctioning.
Take your vehicle to any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Electricity consumption
When the unit is set to “km/h”:
Electricity consumption is the consumption rate of the electricity when EV
driving is performed and equivalent to the fuel consumption for the gasoline
vehicles. For this vehicle, electricity consumed per 100 km (“kWh/100 km”) is
displayed as electricity consumption on each screen.
When the unit is set to “MPH” (if equipped):
Electricity consumption is the consumption rate of the electricity when EV
driving is performed and equivalent to the fuel consumption for the gasoline
vehicles. For this vehicle, driven distance per kWh of electricity consumed
(“miles/kWh”) is displayed as electricity consumption on each screen.
■EV driving range
P. 11 9
■Distance to empty
●This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumption. As a
result, the actual distance that can be driven may differ from that displayed.
●When only a small amount of fuel is added to the tank, the display may not
be updated.
When refueling, turn the power switch off. If the vehicle is refueled without
turning the power switch off, the display may not be updated.

◆Energy monitor
The energy monitor can be used to check the vehicle drive status,
hybrid system operation status and energy regeneration status.
While charging from the external power source, the flow of electrical
energy while charging is displayed.
On vehicles with solar charging system, the approximate power genera-
tion level is also displayed.
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 point of light is not displayed.
●The arrows from the image of the engine to that of the electric
motor (traction motor) or tires are displayed in red.
●The arrow indicating energy consumption is displayed in yellow,
and the arrow indicating energy regeneration or charging is dis-
played in green. Also, the color around the image of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is changed.
As an example, all arrows are shown in the illustration, but the actual
contents of the display will differ.
