SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Charging timer cannot be
performed. The charge cable is not connected. Connect the charge cable.
The time on the clock is wrong. The charging timer function does not start charging based on the clock located on the upper dis-
play. Confirm that the date and time shown on the charging timer screen are the same as the GPS
time and date. If the 12-volt battery is discharged or if the Li-ion battery is disconnected, the time
setting must be updated. There must be a GPS signal to adjust the timer setting clock.
The immediate charge switch has been pushed. Charging timer does not operate when immediate charge is selected.
Charging timer has not been set. Set the charging timer schedule. For additional information, refer to “Charging timer” in this section.
Charging does not start because the charging
timer start time and end time are set and the cur-
rent time is before the set start time. Confirm when the charging timer time is set to start charging. Change the charging timer setting to the
desired charge time or press the immediate charge button. For additional information, refer to
“Charging timer” in this section.
Charging does not start because only the charg-
ing timer start time is set and the current time is
after the set start time.
Charging does not start because only the charg-
ing timer end time is set and the current time is
after the set end time.
The charge cable is not connected.
Connect the charge cable beforehand.
Charging does not start because the charge
amount has been set to 80% and the Li-ion bat-
tery is already charged to more than 80%. When the long life mode (80% charge) is set, the Li-ion battery cannot be charged more than 80%.
Confirm the charge percentage and if you need to charge the Li-ion battery more, change to the
desired charge setting.

Instant ECO driving level
The instant ECO driving level
1is displayed by
the number of bars that increase (more economi-
cal driving) or decrease (less economical driving)
depending on vehicle operation.
Long term ECO driving level
Long term ECO driving is indicated by ECO
TREE symbols. The longer the vehicle is operated
economically, the more segments of the large
ECO TREE symbol
2are displayed. When all of
the segments of the large ECO TREE symbol are
displayed, a small ECO TREE indicator
3is also
displayed, and the large ECO TREE symbol dis-
play is reset. The longer the vehicle is operated
economically, the more small ECO TREE sym-
bols are displayed. The ECO TREE symbols that
were illuminated while driving will turn off when
the vehicle power is turned off. The ECO TREE
symbols are stored in the navigation system to
show long term efficient vehicle operation.
To increase the ECO driving level and for infor-
mation about driving the vehicle efficiently, refer
to “Improve driving range” in the “EV overview”
section of this manual.

WARNING
In freezing temperatures the windshield-
washer fluid may freeze on the rear win-
dow glass and obscure your vision. Warm
the rear window with the defroster before
you wash the rear window.
CAUTION
• Do not operate the washer continu- ously for more than 30 seconds.
• Do not operate the washer if the windshield-washer fluid reservoir is
empty.
• Do not fill the windshield-washer fluid reservoir with windshield-washer fluid
concentrates at full strength. Some
methyl alcohol based windshield-
washer fluid concentrates may perma-
nently stain the grille if spilled while
filling the windshield-washer fluid res-
ervoir.
• Pre-mix windshield-washer fluid con- centrates with water to the manufac-
turer’s recommended levels before
pouring the fluid into the windshield-
washer fluid reservoir. Do not use the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir to
mix the windshield-washer fluid con-
centrate and water. If the rear window wiper operation is inter-
rupted by snow etc., the wiper may stop
moving to protect its motor. If this occurs,
turn the wiper switch to the OFF position
and remove the snow etc. on and around
the wiper arms. After about 1 minute, turn
the switch ON again to operate the wiper.
