once a month to check if dirt or dust 
NOTICE
●Do not block the air intake vent 
with seat covers or luggage
●If the air intake vent is clogged 
with dust, clean it with a vacuum 
cleaner
●Do not allow water or foreign 
matter to enter t he air intake 
vent
●Do not spill large amounts of 
water near the air intake vent
If water is spilled, have the vehi-
cle inspected  by your Toyota 
dealer and do not charge the 
hybrid battery (traction battery) 
before the inspection.

has accumulated.
■When the outside temperature 
is low or high
The level shown on the SOC (State 
of Charge) gauge ( P.165) may 
drop slightly when  the power switch 
is turned to ON, e ven if charging 
has been completed  and the hybrid 
battery (traction battery) is fully 
charged. However, this does not 
indicate a malfunction.
■When removing the charging 
connector
Press the latch release button, 
check that the lever raises up, and 
then pull the charging connector 
towards you.
If the lever does not raise up even 
after the latch release button is 
pressed, the charging connector is 
locked. If this occurs, unlock the 
doors using the smart key system or 
wireless remote control to unlock 
the charging connector. ( P.107)

WARNING
■After charging
Remove the plug if it will not be 
used for a long time.
Dirt and dust may accumulate 
plug or outlet, which could cause 
a malfunction or fire, possibly 
leading to death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■After charging
●Store the AC charging cable out 
of reach from infants and chil-
dren.
●After disconnecting the charging 
connector from the AC charging 
inlet, make sure  to put on the 
AC charging inlet cap and close 
the charging port lid. If the AC 
charging inlet cap is not put on, 
water or foreign objects may 
enter the AC cha rging inlet, 
which could lead to vehicle 
damage.
●After removing the plug from the 
outlet, keep it in a safe place 
free from moisture and dust. 
The AC charging cable or plug 
may be damaged if the cable is 
stepped on or ridden over by 
the vehicle.

■Calendar settings
Current date and time information is 
automatically set using GPS. How-
ever, if GPS calibra tion of clock is 
turned off in the multimedia system 
settings, the date needs to be set on 
the multi-inform ation display.
If the calendar settings check 
screen is displayed when an 
attempt was made to register a 
charge schedule, check that the cor-
rect date is set. If it is incorrect, be 
sure to correct it.
If the calendar information is wrong, 
the charging sche dule function will 
not operate normally.
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”
Starts charging at the set time
*1 
and finishes charging when fully 
charged.
*2
“Departure”
Starts charging to finish at the 
set time.
*3, 4
When this setting is selected, 
the air conditioning-linked func-
tion can be used.
*1: Charging schedule function is  performed in accordance with 
the clock in the multi-information 
display. Before registering the 
charging schedule, check the 
clock settings to the proper time.
*2: There might be a slight error in the timing when charging starts 
due to the state of the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery).
*3: When the system determines that there is no time to finish 
charging by the set scheduled 
departure time, it starts charging. 
Check the charging schedules.
*4: If sudden changes in tempera-ture or changes in the condition 
of the power source occur while 
charging, charging may not end 
exactly at the time estimated by 
the system.
■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.)
Using the charging 
schedule function
Charging can be carried out 
at the desired time by regis-
tering the charging sched-
ule. Also, it is possible to 
set the charging schedule to 
one’s preferences, such as 
having charging complete 
by a certain departure time 
or be carried out at the 
same time on certain days.

schedule function

■To make sure that the charging 
schedule function operates cor-
rectly
Check the following items.
●A d j u s t  t h e  c l o c k  t o  t h e  c o r r e c t  t i m e  
(  P.169)
●The calendar is set to the correct 
date ( P.177)
●Check that the power switch is 
turned off
●After registering the charging 
schedule, connect the AC 
charging cable 
The charging sta rt time is deter-
mined 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 
indicator of the charging port 
flashes ( P.100)
●Do not use an ou tlet that has a 
power cut off function (including a 
timer function) 
Use an outlet that constantly sup-
plies electricity. For outlets where 
the power is cut off due to a timer 
function, etc., charging may not be 
carried out according to plan if the 
power is cut off during the set 
time.
■When the AC charging cable 
remains connected to the vehi-
cle
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 reconnected 
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”
●When the air conditioning-linked 
setting is turned  on, the air condi-
tioning operates until the set  departure time. Therefore, the air 
conditioning will co
nsume electric-
ity and charging may not complete 
by the set departure time.
●If the hybrid batte ry (traction bat-
tery) is fully charged, charging will 
not be carried o ut, even if the 
charging schedule is set. How-
ever, if “Climate Prep” is turned 
on, the air conditioning will oper-
ate only once when it nears the 
time set in “Departure”. If this 
occurs, the air conditioning 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.
■Smartphone-linked operation 
(vehicles with Premium Audio)
After applying to Toyota Apps, it is 
possible to use the smartphone 
application to change charging 
schedule settings.
For details about Toyota Apps, refer 
to

rvices in the United  States and

 in 
Canada.
■When charging schedules are 
ignored
When the following operations are 
performed while the charging 
schedule is on standby, charging 
schedule is temporarily canceled 
and charging is started.
●When the Remote Air Condition-
ing System ( P.405) is operated
●When turning “My Room Mode” 
on ( P.144)
●When turning “Charge Now” on 
( P.137, 142)
●When an operation that temporar-
ily cancel charging using the 
charging schedule ( P.125)
