Pre-climate (Remote Climate Control)
Adjusting cabin temperature before driving reduces traction battery consumption
after departure, thereby increasing driving range. If the amount of charge
remaining in the traction battery is less than 50% at the time Pre-climate
operation is scheduled to begin, Pre-climate operations will not be performed in
order to preserve driving range.
The climate control system can be turned on before entering the vehicle by
setting the Pre-climate schedule or using the Smartphone Entune
® EV Remote
Climate application on a smartphone.
Pre-climate operations completion can be set for a specific time on each day of
the week.

The RAV4 EV may be charged immediately, or scheduled to charge at a specific
time each day.
Smartphone Entune® EV Applications
Drivers with a smartphone and active Entune® and Safety Connect® subscriptions
