OVERVIEWELECTRIC VEHICLE SYSTEM
Starting the EV System
The Scion iQ EV uses electricity in a rechargeable traction battery to power the
electric motor. The driving range is extended by using regenerative braking to
store electricity in the traction battery. This technology is clean and has a low
impact on the environment by not emitting exhaust such as CO
2 or NOX during
operation.
Tips for reducing battery consumption
-Keep the EV System indicator needle within the ECO or Charge area.
-Drive in D position.
-When possible, avoid driving on steep inclines.
-Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway.
-When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
-Minimize use of Air Conditioning and heating; the seat heater may also be used to
supplement heating.
-Maintain recommended tire pressure and avoid carrying unnecessary luggage.
-Utilize the Remote Climate Control to warm or cool cabin before driving.

Use of the charging timer can suppress deterioration of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) and off-peak electricity can be used effectively.
Setting the charging timer
Step 1 Stop the vehicle and press the charging timer switch.
Step 2 Press and hold the charging timer switch.
Step 3 Press the charging timer switch to select the setting mode.

The mode will switch with each
press of the charging timer switch.Step 5 Press and hold the charging timer switch.
Step 4 Adjust the set time using the time adjustment button.
Step 6 Turn the POWER switch off.
The charging timer indicator will start flashing.
Step 7 Connect the charging cable to the vehicle.
Check that the charging indicator has come on. It will turn off after several
seconds. If the indicator does not come on, re-insert the charging connector. If it
still does not come on, check the power source status using the power indicator on
the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device).

Timer charging finishes when the traction battery is fully charged.
Charging starts at an unspecified time so that the battery will be fully charged
at approximately the scheduled finish time.
Cancelling the charging timer
If the charging timer switch is pressed while the charging timer indicator is
illuminated or flashing, the charging timer function will be canceled. However,
if the charging cable has already been connected to the vehicle, charging will
commence immediately.
The charging timer indicator will
turn off if the schedule is canceled.
Step 1 Pull the charging connector toward you while pressing the latch release button.
Step 2 Attach the charging connector cap.
Step 3 Close the charging inlet cap, and then close the recharge inlet door.
