■Charging at a public charging sta-
tion with authentication function
When a door is unlocked during charging, the charging connector is
unlocked and charging will be stopped. In this case, the charging station authentication is canceled and charging
may not be able to restart. Reconnect the charging connector and perform authentication for the charging station.
■Protection function of AC charging
inlet overheating (vehicles with 7 kW onboard traction battery char-ger)
By installing a temperature sensor to the AC charging inlet, prevents parts from melting when the temperature rises due
to foreign matter entering the charging connector. When a certain temperature increase is detected, charging is
stopped immediately and a message is displayed on the multi-information dis-play. After the temperature has
decreased, charging resumes by per- forming the operation to start charging again.
WARNING
■When charging
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause an unex-
pected accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
●Connect to a power source suitable
for charging. ( P.124)
●Check that the AC charging cable,
plug and socket are free of foreign matter.
●Before charging, check that the AC charging inlet is not deformed, damaged or corroded, and check
that the inlet is free of foreign mat- ter such as dirt, snow and ice. If there is dirt or dust in these areas,
remove completely before inserting the charging connector.
●Before inserting the charging plug into the charger, make sure there is no dirt or dust on the terminal
areas. If there is dirt or dust in these areas, remove completely before inserting the charging plug.
●Do not get the terminals of the AC charging inlet wet.
●Only use sockets where the plug can be securely inserted.
●Do not bundle or wind the AC charging cable while charging, as
doing so may result in overheating.
●Do not touch the terminals of the
charging connector and AC charging inlet with a sharp metal objects (needles etc.) or hands, or
short them with foreign objects.
●When charging outdoors, make
sure to connect to a rain-tight socket for outdoor use. Ensure the rain-tight cover closes completely. If
the rain-tight cover cannot be closed, install a rain-tight cover that will close.
●In order to stop charging at the charging station, follow the instruc-
tions of the charger.
●If any heat, smoke, odors, noise or
other abnormalities are noticed during charging, stop charging immediately.
●Do not insert the plug if the socket is submerged in water or snow.
●When charging while it is raining or snowing, do not connect or discon-
nect the plug if your hands are wet. Also, do not get the plug or outlet wet.
●Do not charge the vehicle during a lightning storm.
●Prevent the AC charging cable from being caught in the door or back
door.

■Calendar settings
The current date and time is automati-
cally set using GPS. However, if the
automatic setting of the clock is turned
off on the Multimedia Display, it is nec-
essary to set the calendar on the multi-
information display (P.206, 217). For
details, refer to the “Multimedia owner’s
manual”.
If the calendar settings check screen is
displayed when an attempt is made to
register a charging schedule, make sure
that the calendar settings are correctly.
If the calendar is not set correctly, the
charging schedule function will not oper-
ate properly.
When registering the charging
schedule, the following settings can
be changed.
■Select the charging mode
One of the two following charging
modes can be selected.
“Start” or “Start at set time”
Starts charging at the set time*1, 2 and
finishes charging when fully charged.
“Departure” or “Departure time”
Starts charging to finish at the set
time.
*3, 4
When this setting is selected, the air
conditioning-linked function can be
used.
*1: There might be a slight error in the
timing when charging starts due to
the state of the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery).
*2: Charging schedule function is per-
formed in accordance with the clock.
Before registering the charging
schedule, check and set the clock to
the proper time.
*3: If the system determines that
charging cannot be completed by
the set departure time, it will start
charging. Check the charging sched-
ule.
*4: If the outside temperature changes
suddenly or the state of the power
source being used is changed during
charging, the system may not com-
plete the charging as estimated.
■Repeated setting
The periodic charging schedule can
be set by selecting your desired
day of the week. (If no days are
selected, charging is only carried
out once.)
■Air conditioning-linked set-
ting (“Climate Prep” or “Cli-
mate preparation”)

cally operate
* according to the set
time.
By adjusting the cabin temperature in
advance, passengers can enjoy a
pleasant interior immediately after
entering the vehicle.
*: Operation starts approximately 20
minutes before the set departure
time.
■Turning “Charge Now” on and
off
If even one charging schedule is
registered, charging does not start
until the set time, even if the AC
charging cable is connected to the
vehicle. To start charging without
changing the charging schedule
setting, turn “Charge Now” on to
temporarily cancel the charging
schedule and enable charging after
connecting the AC charging cable.
*
*: If the charging connector is removed
during charging while the charging
schedule is registered and “Charge
Now” is on, “Charge Now” turns off.
■Changing “Next Event”*1, 2
It is possible to temporarily set the
time of the next charging schedule
without changing the registered
repeated setting.

*1: The “Next Event” refers to the clos-
est charging schedule from the cur-
rent time among the registered
charging schedules. Charging
schedule is performed based on the “Next Event”.
*2: “Next Event” can not be changed on
the multimedia display.
*3: When “Next Event” is changed, the
current charging schedule will be
temporarily ignored and charging will
not be carried out until the time
specified by “Next Event”. (For
example, when “Next Event” is set
for 2 days later, even if items are
registered on the charging schedule,
charging will not be carried out until
the time specified by “Next Event”.)
The charging schedule can be reg-
istered on the multi-information dis-
play or Multimedia Display.

mode is set to “Departure” or “Depar-
ture time”, cooling starts approxi-
mately 30 minutes before the charging
start time. However, if there is no time
to finish charging by the charging
schedule, the hybrid battery (traction
battery) cooling time may be short-
ened and “Battery Cooler” may not
operate.

■Cautions while performing the setting operation
When performing the setting opera- tion while the hybrid system is oper-ated, ensure that the vehicle is parked
in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful car-
bon monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.
