N00559200089
On slippery surfaces, the traction control function prevents the drive wheels from spin- ning excessively, thus helping the vehicle to start moving from a stopped condition. It alsoprovides sufficient driving force and steering performance as the vehicle turns while press- ing the acceleration pedal.
N00546800049
The skid control function is designed to help the driver maintain control of the vehicle on slippery roads or during rapid steeringmaneuvers. It works by controlling the elec- tric motor unit output and the brake on each wheel.
N00559401280
The ASC is automatically activated when theelectric motor switch is turned to the “ON”
vate the system by
pressing down the ASC OFF switch for 3 sec-onds or longer. When the ASC is deacti
vated, the indica-
tor will be illuminated. To reactivate the
ASC, momentarily
press the ASC OFF
switch; the indicator is turned off.
NOTE
 An operation noise may be emitted from under the hood in the fo
llowing situations.
The sound is associated
with checking the
operations of the ASC.
At this time, you may
feel a shock from the brake pedal if you depress it. These do not indicate a malfunc-tion. • When the electric motor switch is set to the “ON” position. • When the vehicle is driven for a while after the electric motor unit is turned on.
 When the ASC is acti
vated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicle body or hear a whin- ing sound from under the hood. This indicates that the system is operatingnormally. It does not i
ndicate a malfunction.
 When the anti-lock braking system warning light is illuminated, the ASC is not active.
Traction control function
CAUTION When driving a vehicle on a snowy or icy road, be sure to install snow tires and drivethe vehicle at moderate speeds.
Skid control function
NOTE
 The skid control func
tion operates at speeds
of about 9 mph (15 km/h) or higher.
ASC OFF switch
CAUTION For safety reasons, the ASC OFF switch should be operated when your vehicle isstopped.  Be sure to keep the ASC on while driving in normal circumstances. If you deactivate the ASC to move out of mud, sand or fresh snow
, be sure to reacti-
vate the ASC immediately when done. Do not deactivate
the ASC except when neces-
sary. If you depress the accelerator pedal exces- sively and the wheels continue spinning while the ASC is deactivated, the transmis- sion or other parts ma

N00572101037
The power consumption of the electric motor, the air conditioning, and power generation by the regenerative brake are indicated.When the ready indicator comes on, the red needle will move to th
e neutral point (A) and
then move to the right or left according to theamount of power consumption or power gen- eration. [When the red needle moves to the right of the neutral point] This indicates that the electric motor unit and/or the air conditioning are consumingelectric energy from the main drive lithium- ion battery. The more the needle moves to the right, themore electrical energy
is being consumed.
[When the red needle moves to the left of the neutral point] This indicates that electric energy is beinggenerated by the regenerative brake and charged to the main dr
ive lithium-ion battery.
The more the needle moves to the left, themore electric energy
is being generated.
N00519501449
Odometer, trip odometer, dash lights bright- ness indicator, service reminder, cruising
range indicator, and outside temperature are displayed.
N00572201025
The display is changed every time the resetbutton (A) is briefly pressed.
Energy usage indicator
NOTE
 When the main drive lithium-ion battery is at or near full charge, or
the main drive lithium-
ion battery temperature is too high or toolow, the needle in the energy usage indicator may not move to the left of the neutral point, since the main drive lithium-ion battery can-not receive charge.
