Also performnormal charging according to the operat-ing procedure indicated on the body ofnormal charger.CAUTIONzDo not attempt to perform a jump start on theauxiliary battery at the same time that thedrive battery is being charged. Doing so maydamage the vehicle or charging cable andcould cause an injury.Refer to “Emergency starting” on page 9-2.NOTE
zTo m a i n t a i n t h e c a p a c i t y o f t h e d ri v e b a t t e r y,the following is recommended:•Fully charge the vehicle in normal chargingevery two weeks.• Do not repeat charging near the full chargelevel.WA R N I N G
zIf your vehicle is not used for a long time,check the energy level gauge every 3months. If the gauge shows 0, charge thedrive battery until some indication appears.Alternately, put the operation mode of thepower switch in “ON” to start the engineautomatically, wait for the engine to stopautomatically, then put the operation modeof the power switch in “OFF”.zIn the event of a electrical power outagewhile charging, charging restarts automati-cally with the restoration of electricity.NOTE

If the Plug-in Hybrid EV system cannot bestarted because the auxiliary battery is weakor dead, the battery from another vehicle canbe used with jumper cables to start the Plug-in Hybrid EV system.
1. Get the vehicles close enough so thejumper cables can reach, but be sure thevehicles aren’t touching each other.
If the vehicle breaks down
WA R N I N GzIf you are unable to safely assess the vehi-cle due to vehicle damage, do not touchthe vehicle. Leave the vehicle and contactemergency services. Advise emergencyresponders that this is a Plug-in HybridElectric vehicle.

Emergency starting
WA R N I N GzTo s t a r t t h e P l u g - i n H y b r i d E V s y s t e musing jumper cables from another vehicle,perform the correct procedures accordingto the instruction below. Incorrect proce-dures could result in a fire, explosion, elec-tric shock or damage
to the vehicles.
zKeep sparks, cigarettes and flames awayfrom the battery because the battery mayproduce an explosion.CAUTIONzThe Plug-in Hybrid EV system cannot bestarted by pulling or pushing the vehicle.zCheck the other vehicle.
It must have a 12-
volt battery. If the other system isn’t 12-volt,shorting can damage
both vehicles.
zUse the proper cables suitable for the batterysize to prevent overhea
ting of the cables.
zCheck the jumper cables for damage and cor-rosion before use.zAlways wear protect
ive eye goggles when
working near the battery.zKeep the battery out of the reach of children.zDo not attempt jump starting the auxiliarybattery while the drive battery is beingcharged. Doing so could damage the vehicleor charging equipment.NOTE
zIf the auxiliary battery is disconnected, theoperation mode of the power switch is mem-orized. When a booster
battery is connected
by jumper cables, the operation mode returnsto the state before the auxiliary battery rundown.Pay due attention if you do not know theoperation mode before
the auxiliary battery
was fully discharged.zIf the auxiliary battery is fully dischargedwith the select position in the “P” (PARK)position, the select position cannot bechanged to other position from the “P”(PARK) position in some cases.

2. Turn off all lamps, heater and other elec-trical loads.3. Set the parking brake firmly on each vehi-cle. Set the gear of another vehicle in “P”(PARK) position (with A/T) or in “N”(Neutral) position (with M/T) and stop theengine.4. Open the bonnet, remove the fuse coverof the main fuse block.Refer to “Bonnet” on page 11-3 and“Fuses: Engine compartment” on page11-16.
5. Open the cover of the jumper cable termi-nal in the main fuse block.
6. Connect one end of one jumper cable to the jumper cable terminal (A) of yourvehicle, and the other end to the posi-tive (+) terminal of the booster battery(B).Connect one end of the other jumper cable to the negative (-) terminal of thebooster battery, and the other end tothe designated ground location of yourvehicle.
WA R N I N GzWhen connecting the jumper cable, stopthe engine in another vehicle. Otherwise,the cables or your cl
othes may be caught
by the fan or drive belt and personalinjury could result.zThe cooling fan turns on and off depend-ing on the coolant temperature. Do notbring your hands close to the fan while theengine is running or Plug-in Hybrid EVSystem is operating.

Restartthe Plug-in Hybrid EV system.
WA R N I N GzWhen connecting the jumper cables, donot connect the positive (+) cable to thenegative (-) terminal. Otherwise sparksmight cause explosion of the battery.CAUTIONzUse care not to get the jumper cable caughtin the cooling fan or other rotating part in theengine compartment.NOTE
zIf the jumper cable is
connected to the any
position other than a
ppointed position, it
may could cause damage to the vehicle.
