esult
in death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer
immediately if this occurs.

■Eco score
The driving status for the following 3 situations are evaluated in 5
levels: Smooth start-off accelerati on (“Eco-Start”), driving without
sudden acceleration (“Eco-Cruise”) and smooth stopping (“Eco-
Stop”). Each time the vehicle is stopped, a score result is displayed
out of a perfect score of 100 points.
Score result
“Eco-Start” status
“Eco-Cruise” status
“Eco-Stop” status
How to read the bar display:
*: For items not currently evaluated, the display reads 0.
● The Eco score is reset each time t he vehicle starts off to start a new
evaluation.
● When the shift position is P, only the Eco score display area is
enlarged and displayed. When the shift position is shifted from P,
the display returns to normal.
● When the hybrid system stops, the current total score result and
advice on how to increase the score are displayed. ( →P. 184)

■Remaining charge amount warning of hybrid battery (traction battery)
●While driving, when the remaining charge amount of the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) drops below a fixed amount, the buzzer sounds intermittently. If
the remaining charge amount drops further, the buzzer sounds continuously.
● When a warning message is shown on the multi-information display and the
buzzer sounds, follow the instructions displayed on the screen to perform
troubleshooting.
■ About the Eco score
●After starting off, Eco score display does not start until the vehicle speed
exceeds approximately 12 mph (20 km/h).
● In addition to the vehicle driving status, the Eco score also evaluates the air
conditioning system usage condition ( →P. 228). The score displayed when
the hybrid system stops is the total result of the driving status after the
hybrid system starts and the air conditioning usage condition.
■ “EV Distance” and “EV Energy” display
The rate at which the “EV Distance” and “EV Energy” remaining amount
decreases depends on the driving conditions of the vehicle. Also, the “EV
Distance” and “EV Energy” remaining amount may decrease due to system
power consumption even though the vehicle is not being driven.
■ Predictive Efficient Drive (Pre dictive Deceleration Support)
(vehicles with 11.6-inch display)
When a predictive deceleration support point registered in the navigation sys-
tem is approached, the system turns off the Eco accelerator guide and
encourages the driver to reduce excessive acceleration.
For details about Predictive Efficient Dr ive (Predictive Deceleration Support),
refer to the “NAVIGATION SYSTEM OWNER’S MANUAL”.
