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’s Manual.3 If the indicator flashes, it indicates that the system is operating.4 If equipped.5 Refer to section PKSB (Parking Support Braking function) in the Owner’s Manual.

10 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 supplement
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 regenerative
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 only 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.

11 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 Manual 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.

Make sure to hold the body of the plug and insert it
firmly into the outlet.
Check that the power indicator on 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 illuminate.
Remove the charging inlet cap and secure it as shown in the illustration.
NOTE: For vehicles with smart lid & connector locking system, unlock doors
first.
For more information or to change settings for the smart lid and charging connector
function, refer to the Owner’s Manual.

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
and reduced vehicle emissions.
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.
