Regenerative braking
Motion energy is converted into electric ener-
gy using the motor as a power generator.
Then a braking force generates and converted electric energy will be charged to the drive
battery.
l If you lift your foot off the accelerator
pedal during driving, a braking force that
is equivalent to engine braking of a com- bustion engine vehicle will be generated.
Also, if you shift the select position into “B” (BRAKE) from “D” (DRIVE), ef-
fectiveness of the regenerative braking is getting stronger. Shift the selector lever into “B” (BRAKE) position according to
the driving condition.
l Regenerative brake force increases with
the foot brake force when the brake ped-
al is depressed.
l If a problem occurs in the Plug-in hybrid
EV system, or if the ABS and/or the ASC have been activated, the regenera-
tive braking will be restricted. The foot brake will still operate.Operation of gasoline engine

l Even when the vehicle is driving in EV
drive mode, it may be automatically
changed to series hybrid mode or paral-
lel hybrid mode in the following cases: • The plug-in hybrid EV system is too
hot or too cold.
• Quick acceleration is applied.
• The air conditioner is operating.
• The accelerator pedal is depressed
hard on an uphill road or expressway.
• In cold weather
• The vehicle has not been refueled for
a long time.
• The drive battery level is low.
In addition to the above, there are more
cases where EV drive mode is automati-
cally changed to series or parallel hybrid mode.
l Even while the vehicle is stopped, the
engine may automatically be started in the following cases: • The drive battery level is low.
• The plug-in hybrid EV system is too
hot or too cold.
• The air conditioner is used.
• The vehicle has not been used for a
long time.
• The engine has not been operated for a long time.Refueling (gasoline)

l If the warning display appears, refuel as
soon as possible.
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the engine will not start even in a situation need to be generated electricity, the following
conditions will occur. • The driving performance falls (since
only the electrical power stored in the drive battery can be used for the driv-
ing).
• The heating performance cannot be
available (except vehicles with elec-
tric heater).
• The effectiveness of the heater is in-
sufficient (vehicles with electric heat-er).
• The catalytic converter may be dam-
aged due to excessive high tempera- ture.

tres, the information screen switches to the
fuel remaining warning display and the “
”
mark (B) on the fuel remaining display flash-
es quickly (about twice per second).
CAUTIONl If the warning display appears, refuel as
soon as possible.
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the engine will not start even in a situation need to be
generated electricity, the following condi- tions will occur.
• The driving performance falls (since only
the electrical power stored in the drive
battery can be used for the driving).
• The heating performance cannot be avail-
able (except vehicles with electric heater).
• The effectiveness of the heater is insuffi-
cient (vehicles with electric heater).CAUTION• The catalytic converter may be damaged
due to excessive high temperature.NOTEl On inclines or curves, the display may be in-
