■Hybrid System Indicator display when in EV mode
The movement of the bar in response to the operation of the accelerator
pedal may differ in accordance with the status of the hybrid battery (traction
battery). However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
After switching the “POWER” switch to
ON mode, “welcome to PRIUS” is dis-
played while system operation is
checked. When the system check is com-
plete, the normal screen will return.

■Daytime running light system
●For the U.S.A.: To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the
daytime running lights turn on automatically whenever the hybrid system
is started and the parking brake is released.
Daytime running lights can be turned off by operating the switch. (if
equipped)
For Canada: To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the day-
time running lights turn on automatically (at a reduced intensity) whenever
the hybrid system is started and the parking brake is released. Daytime
running lights are not designed for use at night.
●For Canada: Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running
light system offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it
can help improve fuel economy.
