harmful carbon monoxide (CO)
may collect and enter the vehicle.
This may lead to death or a seri-
ous health hazard.

Driving
the windows may become fogged-
up, and the road will be slippery.
●Drive carefully whe n it starts to
rain, because the road surface will
be especially slippery.
●Refrain from high speeds when
driving on an expressway in the
rain, because there may be a
layer of water between the tires
and the road surface, preventing
the steering and brakes from
operating properly.
■ECO Accelerator Guidance
(  P.96, 107)
It is easier to drive in an Eco-friendly
manner by driving while referring to
the ECO Accelerator Guidance dis-
play. Also, by using the ECO Accel-
erator Guidance it is easier to
increase the “Eco Score” evaluation.
●When starting off:
While staying within the ECO Accel-
erator Guidance range, gradually
depress the accelerator pedal and
accelerate to the desired speed. If
excessive acceleration is avoided,
the “Start” score will increase.
●When driving:
After accelerating to the desired
speed, release the accelerator
pedal and drive at a stable speed
within the ECO A ccelerator Guid-
ance range. By keeping the vehicle
within the ECO A ccelerator Guid-
ance range, the “ Cruise” score will
increase.
●When stopping:
When stopping the vehicle, early
releasing the acce lerator pedal will
cause the “Stop” s core to increase.
■Restraining the hybrid system
output (Brake Override System)
●When the accelerator and brake
pedals are depressed at the same
time, the hybrid system output
may be restrained.
●A warning message is displayed
on the multi-information display
and head-up display (if equipped)
while the system is operating.
(  P.453)
■Restraining sudden start (Drive-
Start Control)
●When the following unusual oper-
ation is performed, the hybrid sys-
tem output may b e restrained.
• When the shift lever is shifted from
R to D, D to R, N to R, P to D
*, or
P to R* (D includes S) with the
accelerator pedal depressed, a
warning message appears on the
multi-information display and
head-up display (i f equipped). If a
warning message is shown on the
multi-information display and
head-up display (if equipped),
read the message and follow the
instructions.
• When the accelerator pedal is depressed too much while the
vehicle is in reverse.
*: Depending on the situation, the
shift position may not be changed.
●While Drive-Start Control is being
activated, your v ehicle may have
trouble escaping from the mud or
fresh snow. In such case, deacti-
vate TRAC ( P.299) to cancel
Drive-Start Cont rol so that the
vehicle may become able to
escape from the mud or fresh
snow.
