■Solar charging system
●In the following cases, charging the hybrid battery (traction battery) via the
solar charging system is not performed. Solar power generation stops when
the solar battery becomes fully charged.
• Charging via an external power source
• The power switch is not off
• The “Traction Battery Heater” is operating (P. 141)
• The Remote Air Conditioning System is operating
• When the amount of remaining charge in the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) is approximately 90% or more of the fully charged capacity for the
charging from an external power source
●In the following cases, the solar charging system stops solar power genera-
tion and power supply to the hybrid battery (traction battery) and auxiliary
systems.
• The temperature preservation function of the solar charging system oper-
ates
• There is a malfunction in the solar charging system
• When the 12-volt battery terminals are disconnected
●The amount of power generated by the solar roof differs according to the
season, climate, weather conditions, vehicle angle and surrounding condi-
tions.
●If even part of the solar roof is in the shade, there may be an extreme drop
in power generation.
●Please adhere to the following in order to allow full performance of the solar
roof.
• Clean the roof on a routine basis (Especially fallen leaves and bird drop-
pings can lead to a substantial decrease in power generation)
• Remove snow from the roof as soon as possible
• Do not attach any seals or stickers to the roof
It is recommended not to install a roof carrier etc. unless it is necessary
●When the hybrid battery (traction battery) is fully charged, charging the bat-
tery via the solar charging system is not performed. When it is not neces-
sary to perform charging from an external power source, charge the vehicle
as much as possible using the solar charging system during the day and
use the external power source only at night. As a result, the solar charging
system can be used effectively.
●When the vehicle is left in the hot weather, the temperature preservation
function of the solar charging system becomes easy to operate due to high
temperature of the vehicle interior. The solar charging system can be used
effectively by using a sunshade or parking the vehicle facing north, etc.

Charging starts immediately, even though charge schedule is registered
“Charge Now” is set to “On”
When charging according to the
timer, set “Charge Now” to “Off”.
(P. 171)
Charge schedule is set to “Off”Check that charge schedule is not
set to “Off”. (P. 169)
Charging mode is set to “Departure”
and schedule departure time is
close to current time
When the system determines that
there is no time to finish charging by
the set scheduled departure time, it
starts charging immediately. Check
the charge schedules.
Charging cable was removed and
reinserted while charging indicator
was flashing
If the charging cable is removed and
reinserted while the charging indica-
tor is flashing, the charging timer is
canceled (P. 155). Temporarily
remove the charging cable, and then
reconnect it.
The Remote Air Conditioning Sys-
tem was operated
When the Remote Air Conditioning
System is operated, the system will
start charging immediately, even if
the charge schedule is registered.
To carry out charging using the
timer, stop the Remote Air Condi-
tioning System, and then reconnect
the charging cable.
“Traction Battery Heater” (P. 141)
operated
When the charging mode is set to
“Departure”, “Traction Battery
Heater” may operate before
charging starts. Check the status of
the charging indicator. (P. 117)
Charging ends earlier than time set in “Departure”
Charging end time does not match
estimated end time due to condition
of power source or outside tempera-
tureIf sudden changes in temperature or
changes in the condition of the
power source occur while charging,
charging may end earlier than the
time estimated by the system.

“Climate Prep” is set to “On”
(vehicles with “Climate Prep” func-
tion)
When “Climate Prep” is set to “On”,
the air conditioning operates until
the set departure time. Therefore,
charging may not complete by the

To have the hybrid battery (traction
battery) fully charged, allow
charging to continue.
Charging end time does not match

■ Liquid crystal display
Small spots or light spots may appear on the display. This phenomenon is
characteristic of liquid crystal displays, and there is no problem continuing to
use the display.
■ Pop-up display
Some functions, such as the driving mode select switch and air conditioning
system, are operation-linked and display pop-up screens on the multi-infor-
mation display. If the pop-up screens of these functions are not desired, they
can be turned off in the “Meter Customize” settings. ( P. 245)
WARNING
■To prevent an accident
■ Caution for use while driving
For safety, avoid operating the meter control switch while driving as much
as possible, and do not look continuously at the multi-information display
while driving. Stop the vehicle and operate the meter control switch. Failure
to do so may cause a steering wheel operation error, resulting in an unex-
pected accident.
NOTICE
■ The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal
information display. At extremely low temperatures, the information display
monitor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
Do not place anything or attach a sticker
in front of the instrument cluster. The item
may obscure or obstruct the display, or
could reflect off the display, possibly
causing an accident.
