Charging system safety functions
Prime Applications (if equipped)
- The Hybrid System will not start while the charging cable is attached to the
vehicle, even if the POWER switch is operated.
- If the charge cable is connected while the READY indicator is illuminated, the
Hybrid System will stop automatically and driving will not be possible.
- When the charge cable is connected to the vehicle, the shift position cannot be
changed from P to another position.
- If the latch release button is pressed, charging will not begin even if the charge
cable is connected.
- Charging will stop if the latch release button is pressed and held for several
seconds during charging. When restarting charging, reinsert the charge
connector after pulling it out, and check that the charging indicator illuminates.
Prime Applications is a service for Prius Prime vehicles that is added to the Safety
Connect® and Entune® products. It provides charge support, comfort support and
drive support via the vehicle’s navigation system and the owner’s smartphone. The
Prime Apps include Charge Management, Remote Climate, Charging Station Map,
Vehicle Finder and ECO Dashboard.
Both an active Safety Connect
® account and an active Entune® account are
required for the services.
The following functions of the Prime Applications can be used with the navigation
system:
Type A Download of nearby charging stations to the map screen.
Type B View list of nearby charging stations and corresponding charging station
information (such as voltage supported).
For details, please refer to http://www.toyota.com/entune.

Hybrid Synergy Drive System
FEATURES & OPERATIONS
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline engine
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power for the
vehicle. To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking force
generates electricity which is then sent to the traction battery. In addition, the
engine shuts off when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fuel economy,
reduced vehicle emissions and improved performance.
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are
shown on the Multi-Information Display.
-Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’s Manual.
-When possible, link trips to reduce engine cold starts.
-Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway.
-When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
-Minimize use of the air conditioning.
(1) Depress the brake pedal, and press the
“POWER” switch briefly and firmly.
(2) The “READY” light will blink. After a few
seconds, when the light remains steady
and a beep sounds, you may begin
driving.

The engine brake is the equivalent of downshifting. Shift to “B” when engine
braking is desired (i.e. downhill driving, coasting to a stop, etc.)

Normal - Suitable for normal
driving.
Power mode - Use when a
higher level of response is
desired, such as when driving
in mountainous regions.
ECO drive mode -
Helps achieve lower fuel
consumption during trips that
involve frequent accelerating
and braking.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details.
EV Mode allows the electric motor (traction motor), powered by the hybrid battery
(traction battery), to be used to drive the vehicle under certain driving conditions.
EV Mode is the default Mode upon starting the vehicle if the battery has sufficient
charge. You can use the EV/HV button at any time to toggle between EV Mode and
hybrid mode.

(1) Press “” switches and select from the Multi-Information Display (MID).
(2) Press “
” switches and select from the MID and then press “”. The
setting screen is displayed.
(3) Press “
” each time to change the setting. Each time it is pressed, the
response to the PCS alert timing changes as shown above. You can press “

go back to the menu.
Note: PCS is enabled each time the engine switch is turned to Ignition On.
The system can be disabled/enabled and the alert timing of the system can be
changed. (Alert timing only, brake operation remains the same.)
Monocular camera sensor
Millimeter
wave radar
As part of the Pre-Collision System, this function is also designed to first provide an
alert and then automatic braking if needed.In certain conditions, the PCS system included with the TSS-P package may also
help to detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle. With Toyota Safety Sense™ P,
PCS uses an in-vehicle camera and front-grill mounted millimeter-wave radar to
help detect a pedestrian in front of your vehicle in certain conditions. The in-vehicle
camera of PCS detects a potential pedestrian based on size, profile, and motion of
the detected pedestrian. However, a pedestrian may not be detected depending
on the conditions, including the surrounding brightness and the motion, posture,
size, and angle of the potential detected pedestrian, preventing the system from
operating or engaging. Refer to a Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information.

ADJUSTING DISTANCE
To change the vehicle-to-vehicle distance

Push the “
” button to cycle
through the settings, which will
change progressively.
This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of a preceding vehicle
up to approximately 328 ft (100m) ahead, determines the current vehicle-to-vehicle
following distance and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from the
vehicle ahead. These distances vary based on vehicle speed.

(1) Constant speed cruising when there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The desired vehicle-to-
vehicle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control.
(2) Deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising when a preceding vehicle
driving slower than the set speed appears
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is
necessary, the system applies the brakes (the brake lights will come on at this
time). The system will respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead
in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. A warning
tone warns you when the system cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent your
vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead. Note: Vehicle-to-vehicle distance will close in when traveling on long downhill
slopes.

Star Safety System™
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wheel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing releases brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the traction that
current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional control.
BRAKE ASSIST (BA)
Brake Assist is designed to detect sudden or “panic” braking, and then add braking
pressure to help decrease the vehicle’s stopping distance. When there’s only a split
second to react, Brake Assist can add additional brake pressure more quickly than
just the driver alone can.
ENHANCED VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC)
Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control provides cooperative control of the ABS, TRAC,
VSC and EPS.
Enhanced VSC helps to maintain directional stability when loss of traction occurs
during a turn.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
Toyota’s ABS technology has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) to help
maintain control and balance when braking. Abrupt stops can cause a vehicle to tilt
forward, reducing the braking power of the rear wheels. EBD responds to sudden
stops by redistributing brake force to enhance the braking effectiveness of all four
wheels. Your vehicle comes standard with the Star Safety System
TM, which combines Anti-
lock Braking System (ABS), Brake Assist (BA), Electronic Brake-force Distribution
(EBD), Smart Stop Technology (SST), Traction Control (TRAC) and Vehicle Stability
Control (VSC).
