■“Traction Battery Cooler”
●When the hybrid battery (traction battery) is above a certain temperature
and the power switch is turned off, a check screen is displayed on the multi-
information display that indicates whether “Traction Battery Cooler” is imple-
mented. Approximately 5 minutes after selecting “Yes” on this screen, sys-
tem operation becomes possible.
● When charging starts, “Traction Battery Cooler” only operates if the hybrid
battery (traction battery) temperature is hot.
● The charging indicator is illuminated while “Traction Battery Cooler” is on
standby or operating.
● “Traction Battery Cooler” is implem ented for a maximum of approximately
30 minutes. However, when the “Departure” time is set ( →P. 147) and there
is not sufficient time between the current time and the time that charging will
complete, “Traction Battery Cooler” operation time may become shorter.
● When there is a small amount of remaining charge in the hybrid battery
(traction battery), even if the hybrid battery (traction battery) is hot, “Traction
Battery Cooler” may not be implemented.
● When the following operations are performed while “Traction Battery Cooler”
is operating, the hybrid battery (traction battery) cooling operation stops.
• A door is opened
• The hood is opened
• The power switch is turned to any mode other than off
• The shift position is changed to any position other than P
• The Remote Air Conditioning System is operated ( →P. 509)
• “Charge Now” is implemented ( →P. 156, 165)
• The amount of remaining charge in the hybrid battery (traction battery) is
below a certain amount
● When the power switch is turned off, a check screen is displayed on the
multi-information display that indicates whether “Traction Battery Cooler” is
implemented. This check screen can be turned on and off in the “Meter Cus-
tomize” settings on the multi-information display ( →P. 234). However, when
the check screen is set to “Off”, “Traction Battery Cooler” is no longer oper-
ates.
● “Traction Battery Cooler” uses the power of the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) and external power source.
• While “Traction Battery Cooler” is operating, the amount of the remaining
charge of the hybrid battery (traction battery) increases and decreases in
a certain range, and does not increase as in normal charging.
• The operation of “Traction Battery Cooler” is recognized as charging by a
charging equipment. The charging equipment that calculates the fee
according to charging time causes a charging fee.

● If the charging cable is connected while the “READY” indicator is illumi-
nated, the hybrid system will stop automatically and driving will not be possi-
ble.
● When the charging cable is connected to the vehicle, the shift position can-
not be changed from P to another position.
■ During charging
The followings occur, however, it does not indicate a malfunction.
●The charging starting time may differ depending on the state of the vehicle.
● During charging, the sound of the fan may be heard from the charging

illuminates.
■ When the outside temper ature is low or high
The level shown on the remaining charge display ( →P. 216) may drop slightly
when the power switch is turned to ON mode, even if charging has been com-
pleted and the hybrid battery (traction battery) is fully charged. However, this
does not indicate a malfunction.
■ Charging time may increase
→P. 126
■ While charging
When the power switch is turned to ON mode and the energy monitor dis-
plays, the charging connector is displayed on the energy monitor and the flow
