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”)

*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”.)

Registering the charging
schedule

1462-2. Charging
●A maximum of 15 charging schedules
can be registered.
■To make sure that the charging
schedule function operates cor-
rectly
Check the following items.
●The clock is adjusted to the proper
time
●The calendar is set to the correct date
●Check that the power switch is turned
off
●After registering the charging sched-
ule, connect the AC charging cable
The charging start time is determined
based on the charging schedule at the
time that the AC charging cable was
connected.
●After connecting the AC charging
cable, check that the charging indica-
tor of the charging port flashes
(P.107)
●Do not use an socket that has a power
cut off function (including a timer func-
tion)
Use an socket that constantly supplies
electricity. For sockets where the
power is cut off due to a timer func-
tion, etc., charging may not be carried
out according to plan if the power is
cut off during the set time.
●The automatic adjustment of the clock
by GPS is set to on.
For details regarding setting clock, refer
to “Multimedia Owner’s Manual”.
■When the AC charging cable
remains connected to the vehicle
Even if multiple consecutive charging
schedules are registered, the next
charge will not be carried out according
to the charging schedule until the AC
charging cable is removed and recon-
nected after charging completes. Also,
when the hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged, charging according to
the charging schedule will not be carried
out.
■“Climate Prep” or “Climate prepa-
ration”
●When the air conditioning-linked set-
ting is turned on, the air conditioning
operates until the set departure time.
Therefore, the air conditioning will
consume electricity and charging may
not complete by the set departure
time.
●If the hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged, charging will not be
carried out, even if the charging
schedule is set. However, if “Climate
Prep” or “Climate preparation” is
turned on, the air conditioning will
operate only once when it nears the
time set in “Departure” or “Departure
time”. If this occurs, the air condition-
ing will consume electricity and the
remaining charge of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) when departing may
be decreased.
●When the doors are unlocked, the air
conditioning system does not operate.
■When charging schedules are
ignored
