For safety and security
Driver airbag
Front passenger occupant classification sensors
Knee airbag
SRS warning light
Airbag sensor assembly
Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed
based on the US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The
airbag sensor assembly (ECU) cont rols airbag deployment based on
information obtained from the sensors etc. shown in the system
components diagram above. This in formation includes crash sever-
ity and occupant information. As the airbags deploy, a chemical
reaction in the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas to
help restrain the motion of the occupants.
■If the SRS airbags deploy
(inflate)
●Slight abrasions, burns, bruising
etc., may be sustained from SRS
airbags, due to the extremely high
speed deployment (inflation) by
hot gases.
●A loud noise and white powder will
be emitted.
●Parts of the airbag module (steer-
ing wheel hub, airbag cover and
inflator) as well as the front seats,
parts of the front and rear pillars,
and roof side rails, may be hot for
several minutes. T he airbag itself
may also be hot.
●The windshield may crack.
●The hybrid system will be stopped
and fuel supply to the engine will
be stopped. ( P.89)
●All of the doors will be unlocked.
( P.223)
●The brakes and st op lights will be
controlled automatically.
(  P.408)
●The interior lights will turn on auto-
matically. ( P.436)
●The emergency flashers will turn
on automatically. ( P.534)
●For Safety Connect subscribers, if
any of the following situations
occur, the system is designed to
send an emergency call to the
response center, notifying them of
the vehicle’s location (without
needing to push the “SOS” button)
and an agent will attempt to speak
with the occupants to ascertain
the level of emergency and assis-
tance required. If the occupants
are unable to communicate, the
agent automatically treats the call
as an emergency and helps to dis-
patch the necessary emergency
services. ( P.65)
• An SRS airbag is deployed.
• A seat belt pretensioner is acti-
vated.
• The vehicle is involved in a severe
rear-end collision.
■SRS airbag deployment condi-
tions (SRS front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy
in the event of an impact that
exceeds the set threshold level
(the level of forc e corresponding
to an approximately 12 - 18 mph
[20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with
a fixed wall that does not move or
deform).

WARNING
●Child restraint systems installed
on the rear seat should not con-
tact the front seatbacks.
●Do not use a seat accessory,
such as a cushion and seat
cover, that covers the seat
cushion surface.
●Do not modify or replace the
upholstery of the front seat.
●Adjust the front passenger seat
so that the head restraint does
not touch the ceiling. If the head
restraint is left in contact with
the ceiling, the system may not
detect the front passenger prop-
erly, leading to improper opera-
tion of the airbags.

■There is a malfunction in the system
*1: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller
adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may not recognize
him/her as an adult depending on his/her physique and posture.
*2: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt.
*3: In the event the front passenge r does not wear a seat belt.
*4: For some children, child in seat, child in booster seat or chi ld in convert-
ible seat, the system may not recognize him/her as a child. Fac tors
which may affect this can be the physique or posture.
*5: Never install a rear-facing ch ild restraint system on the front passenger
seat. A forward-facing child res traint system should only be installed on
the front passenger sea t when it is unavoidable. ( P.53)
*6: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this m anual on how
to install the child restr aint system properly. (P.50)

1182-2. Charging
This vehicle has been designed
to allow charging from an exter-
nal power source using a AC
charging cable for exclusive use
with standard household AC
outlets.
However, the vehicle differs
greatly from standard household
electrical goods in the following
ways, and incorrect usage could
cause fire or electric shock, pos-
sibly leading to death or serious
injury.
When charging, a large
amount of current will flow for
a long time.
 Charging can be conducted
outdoors.
To charge properly, follow the
procedure after reading the
explanation below. Charging is
intended to be carried out by
licensed drivers only who prop-
erly understand the charging
procedure.
 Do not allow children to use
the AC charging cable without supervision. Also, keep the
AC charging cable out of
reach of infants.
 When charging with a char-
ger, follow the procedures for
using each charger.
 When charging using a public
charging facility, check the
setting of the charging sched-
ule function.
• When the charging schedule is
registered, temporarily turn off
the function or turn “Charge Now”
on. ( P.135, 141, 147)
• When the charging schedule is set to on, charging will not start
even if the AC charging cable is
connected. Also, charging fee
may occur due to connection of
the AC charging cable.
Before charging, always check
the following items.
 The parking brake is applied.
( P.314)
 Lights such as the head-
lights, emergency flashers
and interior lights etc. are
turned off.
If these light swit ches are turned
on, then these features will con-
sume electricity, and charging time
will increase.
 The power switch is turned to
OFF. ( P.307)
WARNING
■When the AC charging cable
is connected to the vehicle
Do not operate the shift lever.
In the unlikely event that the AC
charging cable has been dam-
aged, the shift position may
change from P to another position
and the vehicle could move, pos-
sibly leading to an accident.
Charging precautions
Confirm the following
before charging

1502-2. Charging
●When the remaining charge of the
hybrid battery (traction battery)
reaches the lower limit, the air
conditioning system automatically
turns off.
In this situation, the air condition-
ing system cannot be used until
the remaining charge of the hybrid
battery (traction battery)
increases. Turn the power switch
off and use “My Room Mode” after
the remaining charge of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is
restored.
●When the outside temperature is
low, the heater output may be lim-
ited due to the air conditioning
system operation being restricted.
●Warning lights and indicators such
as electric power steering system
warning light (ye llow) and mal-
function indicator lamp may turn
on, but this is not a malfunction.
Also, when the headlight switch is
in the AUTO position and the sur-
rounding area is dark, the head-
lights are turned on. ( P.321)
■When a charging schedule is
registered
When “My Room Mode” starts while
the charging schedule is on
standby, charging schedules are
ignored and charging starts.
■When “My Room Mode” is used
while the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) is fully charged
When the power switch is turned on
while the hybrid battery (traction
battery) is fully charged and the
charging connector that supplies
power is connected, “Charging Port
Lid is Open” is displayed on the
multi-information display. In this
case, press on the meter control
switches to display the setting
screen of “My Room Mode”, and
then select “My Room Mode”.
When “My Room Mode” is used while the hybrid battery (traction
battery) is fully charged, the electric
power of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) may be consumed. In this
case, charging may be performed
again.
■When a message related to “My
Room Mode” is displayed
When a message is displayed on
the multi-informat ion display while
using or attempting to start “My
Room Mode”, take the following cor-
rection procedures.
●“Traction battery is too low for “My
Room Mode””
There is insufficient remaining
charge in the hybrid battery (traction
battery) for starting “My Room
Mode”.
Wait until the char ge of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) increases,
then start “My Room Mode”.
●““My Room Mode” has stopped
due to low traction battery”
The remaining char ge in the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is insuffi-
cient.
Stop using “My Room Mode” and
charge the hybrid battery (traction
battery).
●““My Room Mode” will stop when
traction battery is too low Reduce
power usage to continue using
“My Room Mode””
The power consumption inside the
vehicle is greater than the power
being charged to the hybrid battery
(traction battery), and the remaining
charge of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) is low.
*
• “My Room Mode” will end unless the power consumption inside the
vehicle is improved.
• To continue using “My Room Mode”, turn off the power of sys-
tems such as the air conditioning
