74 1-3. Charging
Remove the plug from the elec-
trical receptacle when the charg-
ing equipment will not be used
for a prolonged period of time.
Hold the body of the plug when
removing.
Make sure to put the cable away
immediately after disconnecting.
(P. 87)
When leaving the plug inserted,
inspect the plug and connector
once a month to check if dirt or
dust has accumulated.
Contents shown on the multi-information display
A variety of information regarding charging is shown on the multi-
information display.
■ Results of Charging and Pre-climate Display
When charging/pre-climate operations are being performed or after
they have finished, the following information is displayed according
to vehicle conditions when the driver’s door is opened for approxi-
mately 30 seconds or until the “POWER” switch is turned to ON
mode.

■When leaving the vehicle
To prevent vehicle theft and to increase the efficiency of pre-climate opera-
tion, check that all windows are closed.
■ Amount of time required for charging
The amount of time required to fully charge the traction battery varies
according to a number of factors, such as the amount of charge remaining in
the traction battery, the power source being used, the charge settings, ambi-
ent temperature, battery temperature and so forth.
Only use the following times as a guide to estimate charging time. The esti-
mated times are to fully charge a completely discharged battery in normal
charge mode or extended charge mode.
*
1: Charging time will vary with ambient temperature.
*
2: Toyota supplied charging cable at time of purchase
Because a 240 V power source charges more quickly than a 120 V power
source, Toyota recommends charging at 240 V.
■ Automatic OFF function when th e charging cable is connected
If the charging cable is connected while the EV system is on, the EV system
is automatically turned off.
■ Default charge mode setting
The factory default setting is normal charge mode.
■ Charge mode setting
The charge mode will remain in the last charge mode selected for the next
time charging is performed.

■Capacity reduction of the traction battery
The capacity of the traction battery will decline gradually with normal use
over the life of the vehicle. The rate at which it declines is dependant on a
number of factors, including environmental conditions and the way the vehi-
cle is used. By observing the following precautions, battery capacity decline
can be suppressed.
●Avoid parking the vehicle for prolonged periods in areas with a high tem-
perature under direct sunlight when the traction battery is fully charged.
When storing the vehicle for prolonged periods, it is recommended to
park the vehicle in a shaded area or a cool garage. This helps minimize
traction battery capacity decline.
● When not driving long distances, it is recommended to charge using nor-
mal charge mode to help minimize traction battery capacity decline.
( P. 58, 72)
● Regular use of the scheduled charging function helps mitigate battery
capacity decline by avoiding storage at high SOC.

Before driving
■
If charging has not been car ried out in a long time
The charging port cap's lever may get stuck and not open automatically
even if the knob is moved. If this occurs, push aside the release button and
open the cap by hand.
■ When the outside temperature is low or high
The level shown on the SOC gauge ( P. 218) may drop slightly when the
“POWER” switch is turned to ON mode, even if charging has been com-
pleted and the traction battery is fully charged. However, this does not indi-
cate a malfunction.
■ Charging in extremely cold temperatures
If the vehicle is parked in ambient temperatures below freezing, 240 V
charging is recommended.
If only a 120 V outlet is available, the following will improve your charge pro-
cess:
●Charge at mid-day (when it is warmest)
● Protect the vehicle from wind during charging.
If the vehicle is still too cold to charge, please contact your Toyota dealership
or tow it to a warmer charging location.

If a warning message is displayed after charging
If a warning message is displayed when the “POWER” switch is
turned to ON mode after charging, comply with the contents of the
message and take any necessary actions. ( P. 443)
■Resetting the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device)
If the error warning indicator of the CCID
(Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) illu-
minates during charging, conduct either
of the following procedures.
●Press the reset button on the CCID
(Charging Circuit Interrupting Device).
● Disconnect the plug, wait for a short
while and reconnect.
The error warning indicator will go out
and the power source will reconnect.
● If the error warning indicator does not
illuminate a second time after the power
source has been reconnected, charging
can continue.
● If the error warning indicator illuminates
again, there may be a problem with the
charging cable or the power source.
Stop charging immediately and contact
your Toyota dealer.

Before driving
■
Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection
areas), the system may not operate properly in the following cases.
• The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door handle,
near the ground, or in a high place when the doors are locked or
unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, in the auxiliary box, on the floor or in the glove box when the EV system is started or
“POWER” switch modes are changed.
● Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel or near the
door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave
reception conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin
and the door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the
electronic key inside the vehicle.
● As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may
be locked or unlocked by anyone.
● Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to
start the EV system if the electronic key is near the window.
● The doors may unlock if a large amount of water splashes on the door
handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash. (The doors will automatically
be locked after approximately 60 seconds if the doors are not opened
and closed.)
● Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.
● If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the elec-
tronic key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not
be unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to
unlock the doors.)
■ When the vehicle is not dr iven for extended periods
To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2
m) of the vehicle.

1-7. Opening and closing the windows
1
Before driving
■
The power windows can be operated when
The “POWER” switch is in ON mode.
■ Operating the power wi ndows after turning the “POWER” switch off
(front windows only)
The power windows can be operated for approximately 45 seconds after the
“POWER” switch is turned to ACCE SSORY mode or turned off. They can-
not, however, be operated once either front door is opened.
■ Jam protection function (driver’s window only)
If an object becomes caught between the window and the window frame,
window travel is stopped and the window is opened slightly.
■ When the power window does not cl ose normally (driver’s window only)
If the jam protection function is operating abnormally and a window cannot
be closed, perform the following operations using the power window switch
on the driver's door.
● After stopping the vehicle, the window can be closed by holding the
power window switch in the one-touch closing position while the
“POWER” switch is turned to ON mode.
● If the window still cannot be closed even by carrying out the operation
explained above, initialize the function by performing the following proce-
dure.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch closing position.
Continue holding the switch for a further 6 seconds after the win-
dow has closed.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch opening position.
Continue holding the switch for a further 2 seconds after the win-
dow has opened completely.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch closing position
once again. Continue holding the switch for a further 2 seconds
after the window has closed.
If you release the switch while the window is moving, start again from the
beginning.
If the window continues to close but then re-open slightly even after perform-
ing the above procedure correctly, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
