1 If the indicator does not turn off within a few seconds of starting the \
Hybrid system, there may be
a malfunction. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
2 If the indicator flashes, there may be a malfunction. Refer to the Owner\

The Prius Prime system has features of both electric and hybrid vehicles\
. Electricity
received by charging from an external power source can be used to supple\
ment
hybrid energy, and the vehicle can also be driven as an electric vehicle\
using only
the electric motor. The EV driving range can be extended by using regene\
rative
braking to store electricity in the traction battery.
ELECTRIC VEHICLE SYSTEM
Charging equipment
The charge cable included with the vehicle is designed to be connected o\
nly to
an AC 120V power source.
NOTE:Toyota recommends installing a heavier-duty 15-amp wall receptacle
with GFCI (Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter). Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details.

The Prius Prime may be charged immediately, or scheduled to charge at a \
specific time. Before charging, it is recommended that:
• Parking brake is securely set
• All lights are turned off
• The POWER switch is OFF
Refer to “Things to Know Before Charging,” in the Owner’s Manua\
l before
attempting to charge the hybrid battery.
Step 1 Plug the charge cable into the outlet of the external power source.
NOTE: Hanging the CCID on a hook is recommended to reduce the strain on
the outlet and charge cable plug.

START CHARGING
- Make sure to hold the body of the plug and insert it
firmly into the outlet.
- Check that the power indicator of the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is illuminated.
- Check the status of the automatic system check that runs before charging to detect electrical leakage. If a
malfunction is detected, an error warning indicator
flashes.
- The surface of the CCID may become hot, but this does not indicate a malfunction.
Step 2 Press the charge port lid to open and the charging inlet light will ill\
uminate.
NOTE: For vehicles with smart lid & connector locking system, unlock doors
first.
For more information or to change settings for the smart lid and chargin\
g connector
function, refer to the Owner’s Manual.

ELECTRIC VEHICLE SYSTEMCharging Information
Remaining charging time and charging information is displayed on the
Multi-Information Display (MID) or 11.6” display (if equipped.)
If the POWER switch is turned to ON mode during charging, the current ch\
arging
status and the amount of time needed until charging is complete will be \
displayed
on the energy monitor.
After confirming, switch the POWER switch to OFF and turn off the displa\
y. The
POWER switch will turn off automatically after several tens of seconds.
Charging information and warning messages The first time the POWER switch is
turned to ON mode after charging is completed, a message detailing the r\
esults of
the charge is shown. Also, if an operation was attempted that could not \
be carried
out while charging, a warning message will be shown.
Follow the instructions in the message. The message may not be displayed\
if the
Remote Climate System has been used.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for limitations and more details.

The Pre-Collision System uses a radar sensor and camera sensor to help d\
etect a
vehicle or pedestrian in front of your vehicle.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control pe\
rformance
that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. This sy\
stem will not
prevent collisions or lessen collision damage or injury in every situati\
on. Do not use
PCS instead of normal braking operations under any circumstances. Do not\
attempt
to test the operation of the pre-collision system yourself, as the syste\
m may not
operate or engage, possibly leading to an accident. In some situations, \
such as
when driving in inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or a san\
dstorm or
while driving on a curve and for a few seconds after driving on a curve,\
a vehicle or
pedestrian may not be detected by the radar and camera sensors, preventi\
ng the
system from operating or engaging properly.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for a list of additional situation\
s in which the
system may not operate properly.Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on PCS \
w/PD
operation, settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before att\
empting to
use it. Pre-Collision Warning
When the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision i\
s high, a
buzzer will sound and a warning message will be displayed on the Multi-I\
nformation
Display (MID) to urge the driver to take evasive action.
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
If the driver notices the hazard and brakes, the system may provide addi\
tional
braking force using Brake Assist. This system may prime the brakes and m\
ay apply
greater braking force in relation to how strongly the brake pedal is dep\
ressed.
Pre-Collision Braking
If the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines tha\
t the
possibility of a frontal collision with a preceding vehicle is extremely\
high, the
system may automatically apply the brakes, reducing speed in order to he\
lp the
driver reduce the impact and in certain cases avoid the collision.

TOYOTA SAFETY SENSE™
The LDA function displays when the Multi-Information Display (MID) is
switched to the driving assist system information screen.
(1) The system displays solid white lines on the LDA indicator when visible lane
markers on the road are detected. A side flashes orange to alert the dri\
ver when the
vehicle deviates from its lane.
(2) The system displays outlines on the LDA indicator when lane markers on the
road are not detected or the function is temporarily cancelled.
Note: When operation conditions are no longer met, a function may be
temporarily canceled. However, when the operation conditions are met again,
operation of the function is automatically restored. For example, LDA may not
function on the side(s) where white/yellow lines are not detectable.
Refer to the Toyota Owner’s Manual for additional information on LDA \
operation,
settings adjustments, limitations, and precautions before attempting to \
use it.
The driver can adjust the sensitivity of the LDA (warning) function from the
Multi-Information Display (MID) customization screen. High - Is designed to warn approximately before the front tire crosses
the lane marker.
Normal - Is designed to warn approximately when the front tire crosses
the lane marker.
