■Engine speed
On hybrid vehicles, engine speed is pre- cisely controlled in order to help improve fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust emis-
sions, etc. There are times when the engine speed that is displayed may differ even when
vehicle operation and driving conditions are the same.

Vehicle status information and indicators
Shows that an Eco-friendly driving range
is being exceeded (during full power
driving, etc.)
*: When used in this manual, regenera-
tion refers to the conversion of energy
created by the movement of the vehi-
cle into electrical energy.
In the following situation, the Hybrid
System Indicator does not operate.
●“READY” indicator is not illuminated.
●The shift position is in a range other than D or B.
■Outside temperature display
●In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer than normal to change:• When stopped, or driving at low
speeds (less than 25 km/h [16 mph]) • When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the
entrance/exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
●When “--” is displayed, the system
may be malfunctioning. Take your vehicle to any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer.
■Fuel gauge and driving range dis- play
The fuel gauge and driving range dis-
play are linked. If the fuel gauge and driving range display do not update after refueling a small amount, they can be
updated by performing the following pro- cedure:
1 Stop the vehicle on a level surface.
Wait until the fuel in the fuel tank stabi-
lizes.
2 Press the display change button to change the odometer and trip meter display to the odometer.
3 Turn the power switch off.
4 While pressing and holding the dis-
play change button, turn the power switch to ON.
5 Continue holding the display change
button for approximately 5 seconds.
Release the button when the odometer begins blinking.
Updating will be complete when the odometer blinks for approximately 5 seconds and then returns to the normal
display.
■Liquid crystal display
 P. 1 1 3
■Customization
The gauges and meters can be custom-
ized in of the multi-information dis-
play. ( P.498)
WARNING
■The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crys-tal information display. At extremely
low temperatures, the information dis- play monitor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear
number appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to downshift again, causing rapid and
excessive engine braking and possi- bly an accident resulting in death or injury.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the engine
and its components
The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is
in the red zone (H). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and check the engine after it
has cooled completely. ( P.481)

leave the electronic key within 1 m (3 ft.) of the following electrical appli-ances that produce a magnetic field:
•TVs • Personal computers• Cellular phones, cordless phones and
battery chargers • Recharging cellular phones or cord-less phones
• Table lamps • Induction cookers

tor pedal depressed, the engine
WARNING
■If the vehicle becomes stuck (AWD models)
Do not spin the wheels excessively when any of the tires is up in the air, or the vehicle is stuck in sand, mud,
etc. This may damage the driveline components or propel the vehicle for-ward or backward, causing an acci-
dent.
NOTICE
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not depress the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time during driving, as this may restrain the hybrid system output.
●Do not use the accelerator pedal or depress the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time to hold the vehicle on a hill.
■When parking the vehicle
Always set the parking brake and shift
the shift lever to P. Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to move or the vehicle may accelerate suddenly if
the accelerator pedal is accidentally depressed.
■Avoiding damage to vehicle parts
●Do not turn the steering wheel fully in either direction and hold it there
for an extended period of time. Doing so may damage the power steering motor.
●When driving over bumps in the road, drive as slowly as possible to
avoid damaging the wheels, under- side of the vehicle, etc.
■If you get a flat tire while driving
A flat or damaged tire may cause the following situations. Hold the steering
wheel firmly and gradually depress the brake pedal to slow down the vehicle.
