■Consumption of fuel and elec-
tricity
In cold temperatures, resistance of
the parts of a vehicle (transmission,
tires, etc.) generally increases,
resulting in increase of energy con-
sumption. As a result, fuel economy
is likely to decrease.
Consumption of fuel and electricity
of this vehicle is also likely to
become worse in cold temperatures.
WARNING
■When parking the vehicle
When parking the v ehicle without
applying the parking brake, make
sure to chock the wheels. If you
do not chock the wheels, the vehi-
cle may move unexpectedly, pos-
sibly resulting in an accident.

●Outside/recirculated air mode may
automatically switch depending on
the temperature setting or the
inside temperature.
■When the outside temperature
exceeds 75°F (24°C) and the air
conditioning system is on
●In order to reduce the air condi-
tioning power consumption, the air
conditioning system may switch to
recirculated air mode automati-
cally. This may a lso reduce fuel
consumption.
●Recirculated air mode is selected

switch is turned to ON.
●It is possible to switch to outside
air mode at any time by pressing
the outside/recirculated air mode
switch.
■Operation of the air condition-
ing system in Eco drive mode
●In Eco drive mode, the air condi-
tioning system is controlled as fol-
lows to prioritize fuel efficiency:
• Engine speed and compressor
operation controlled to restrict
heating/cooling capacity
• Fan speed restr icted when auto-
matic mode is selected
●To improve air conditioning perfor-
mance, perform the following
operations:
• Turn off Eco drive mode ( P.372)
• Turn off Eco air conditioning mode

●To let fresh air in, set the air condi-
tioning system to the outside air
mode.
●During use, various odors from
inside and outside the vehicle may
enter into and accumulate in the
air conditioning system. This may
then cause odor
to be emitted
from the vents.
●To reduce potential odors from
occurring:
• It is recommended that the air
conditioning system be set to out-
side air mode prior to turning the
vehicle off.
• The start timing of the blower may be delayed for a short period of
time immediately after the air con-
ditioning system is started in auto-
matic mode.
●When parking, the system auto-
matically switches to outside air
mode to encourage better air cir-
culation throughout the vehicle,
helping to reduce odors that occur
when starting the vehicle.

trols the air conditioning airflow
so that priority is given to the
front seats. When the front pas-
senger seat is not occupied, air-
flow may switch to only the
driver’s seat. Unnecessary air
conditioning is suppressed, con-
tributing to increased fuel effi-
ciency.
Front seat concentrated airflow
mode operates in the following
situations.
 No passengers are detected
in the rear seats 
The windshield defogger is
not operating
While operating, illumi-

seats without passengers immedi-
ately after the hybrid system is
started and at other times depend-
ing on the outside temperature.
●After the hybrid system is started,
if passengers move around inside
or enter/exit the vehicle, the sys-
tem cannot accura tely detect the
presence of passengers and auto-
matic airflow co ntrol will not oper-
ate.

■Using the power outlet while
parked or stopped
●The power outlets are for use in
directly connecting electrical
devices such as lights. Do not
use the power outlets as gener-
ators to supply power to a
house, etc. To use this as a
power supply system for emer-
gency use (for example, as a
dedicated system that can be
connected to an external power
source, or as a system where
the supply circuit from the exter-
nal power source is separate
from the electric wiring from the
power company) for a house,
etc., consult with the manufac-
turer or dealer of this system.
●While using the power outlet,
make sure to securely engage
the parking brake and not to
shift the shift lever from P. The
vehicle may move unexpect-
edly, possibly resulting in an
accident.
●Do not leave the vehicle unat-
tended while using the power
outlet.
●Do not use the power outlet
during weather with a possibility
of lightning. If you notice light-
ning while using the power out-
let, stop using it.
●Do not use the p ower outlet if
the vehicle has a vehicle cover
installed.
●Be especially careful when
using an electrical device such
as a heater and sleeping in the
vehicle. The device may stop
unexpectedly due to operations
such as an autom atic stop of
the power supply system.
●Do not use while the vehicle is
stopped on a slope or other
slanted location. Do not move or
tilt the vehicle during use.
●Observe the fo llowing precau-
tions when using the power out-
let with the cord pulled outside
of the vehicle.
• Be careful of entry of rain or water. If the po wer outlet
becomes wet, dry the outlet
before using.
• Prevent the cord from being caught in the window or door
• Provide some slack in the cord and do not pu ll it too tight
