Drive your vehicle with a smooth accel-
eration and deceleration.
While driving, energy is recovered
through the regenerative brake as the
vehicle decelerates. However, for more
efficient use, do not accelerate or de-
celerate your vehicle more than neces-
sary.
Avoid abrupt acceleration and decelera-
tion.
The remaining capacity of the hybrid
battery can be confirmed on the energy
monitor screen of the multi−information
display. See “Information” on page 166
for details. Gradual or non −abrupt ac-
celeration or deceleration will more ef-
fectively use the benefits of an electric
motor without having to use gasoline
engine power. When parking, be sure to put the hy-
brid transaxle in “P”. While driving, use
the hybrid transaxle in “D”.
In “N”, the gasoline engine operates
but electricity cannot be generated. The
battery will be discharged requiring un-
necessary engine power to recharge.
The hybrid system automatically re-
charges the hybrid battery when the
remaining battery power is reduced.
However, the charging is not available
if the hybrid transaxle is “N”.
INFORMATION
The gasoline engine starts and stops
automatically. (It stops during a low
load driving, deceleration or when the
vehicle is stopped.)
If the “READY” light remains on, you
can start your vehicle using the elec-
tric motor even with the gasoline en-
gine stopped.
The gasoline engine may not stop au-
tomatically in the following condi-
tions:
During gasoline engine warmup
During hybrid battery charging
During low or high hybrid battery
temperature
For efficient use of your
vehicle

When the multiinformation display
shows this message, the master warn-
ing light
() comes on in the instru-
ment cluster. Read the message and
follow the instruction.
When you leave your vehicle, or stop
or park for a while, put the hybrid
transaxle in “P”.
Charging is necessary. In “N”, charging
will not be applied. The electric genera-
tor operates in “P”, “D” or “B”. If you
continue driving, put the hybrid trans-
axle in “D” or “B” and depress the
accelerator pedal. Do not leave the hy-
brid transaxle in “N”. When driving in
traffic jam, operate in “D”.

Do not allow anyone to lean against the
side of the rear right seatback, nor put
any luggage or other obstructions on it.
An air vent is provided on the side of
the rear right seatback to cool the hy-
brid battery. If this vent is covered, the
hybrid battery will overheat resulting in
a reduction of the output performance
of the hybrid system.
The seat belt not properly set in the
guide on the top of the rear seat may
block the air vent. Be sure to pass the
seat belt through the guide properly.
