Charging
Step 1 Plug the charge cable into the outlet of the external power source.
NOTE: Hanging the CCID on a hook is recommended to reduce the strain on the
outlet and charge cable plug.
- Make sure to hold the body of the plug and insert it firmly into the outlet.
- Check that the power indicator of the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is
illuminated.
- The surface of the CCID may become hot, but this does not indicate a malfunction.
Step 2 Press the test button on the CCID to check that the electrical leakage detection function operates properly.
- If the error warning indicator illuminates when test button is pressed, the function is operating
correctly.
- After the test is completed, press reset button to turn off the error warning. Charging cannot occur
while error warning is illuminated.
- If the error warning indicator does not come on when test button is pressed, the function
may not be operating correctly. Stop charging
immediately and contact your Toyota dealer.
The Prius Plug-in may be charged immediately, or scheduled to charge at a
specific time. Before charging, it is recommended that:
-Parking brake is securely set
-All lights are turned off
-The POWER switch is OFF
Start charging

FEATURES/OPERATIONS
Starting your vehicle
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline engine
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power for the
vehicle. To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking force
generates electricity which is then sent to the traction battery. In addition,
the engine shuts off when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fuel
economy, reduced vehicle emissions and improved performance.
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are shown on the Multi-Information Display.
Tips for improved fuel economy
-Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’s Manual.
-When possible, link trips to reduce engine cold starts.
-Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway.
-When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
-Minimize use of the Air Conditioning.
