For safety and security
UK AURIS_HV_HB_EE (OM12M49E)
■Regenerative braking
In the following situations, kinetic energy is converted to electric energy and
deceleration force can be obtained in conjunction with the recharging of the
hybrid battery (traction battery).
● The accelerator pedal is released while driving with the shift position in D or
B.
● The brake pedal is depressed while driving with the shift position in D or B.
■ EV indicator
■ Conditions in which the gasoline engine may not stop
The gasoline engine starts and stops automatically. However, it may not stop
automatically in the following conditions:
● During gasoline engine warm-up
● During hybrid battery (traction battery) charging
● When the temperature of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is high or low
● When the heater is switched on
■ Charging the hybrid battery (traction battery)
As the gasoline engine charges the hybrid battery (traction battery), the bat-
tery does not need to be charged from an outside source. However, if the
vehicle is left parked for a long time the hybrid battery (traction battery) will
slowly discharge. For this reason, be sure to drive the vehicle at least once
every few months for at least 30 minutes or 16 km (10 miles). If the hybrid
battery (traction battery) becomes fully discharged and you are unable to start
the hybrid system, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
■ Charging the 12-volt battery
 P. 541
The EV indicator will be displayed on the
multi-information display when the vehicle
is driven using only the electric motor
(traction motor) or the gasoline engine is
stopped.

Driving
WARNING
●If water droplets cannot be properly removed from the area of the wind-
shield in front of the front sensor by the windshield wipers, replace the
wiper insert or wiper blade.
If the wiper inserts or wiper blades need to be replaced, contact any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
● Do not attach window tinting to the windshield.
● Replace the windshield if it is damaged or cracked.
If the windshield needs to be replaced, contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
● Do not install an antenna in front of the sensor.
● Do not get the front sensor wet.
● Do not allow bright lights to shine into the front sensor.
● Do not dirty or damage the front sensor.
When cleaning the inside of the windshield, do not allow glass cleaner to
contact the lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
If the lens is dirty or damaged, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
● Do not subject the front sensor to a strong impact.
● Do not change the installation position or direction of the front sensor or
remove it.
● Do not disassemble the front sensor.
● Do not install an electronic device or device that emits strong electric
waves near the front sensor.
● Do not modify any components of the vehicle around the front sensor
(inside rear view mirror, sun visors, etc.) or ceiling.
● Do not attach any accessories that may obstruct the front sensor to the
hood, front grille or front bumper. Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional for details.
● If a surfboard or other long object is to be mounted on the roof, make sure
that it will not obstruct the front sensor.

burns.

3124-7. Driving tips
UK AURIS_HV_HB_EE (OM12M49E)
◆When braking
Make sure to operate the brakes gently and in a timely manner. A
greater amount of electrical energy can be regenerated when slow-
ing down.
◆Delays
Repeated acceleration and deceleration, as well as long waits at
traffic lights, will lead to bad f uel economy. Check traffic reports
before leaving and avoid delays as much as possible. When driving
in a traffic jam, gently release th e brake pedal to allow the vehicle to
move forward slightly while avoi ding overuse of the accelerator
pedal. Doing so can help control excessive gasoline consumption.
◆Highway driving
Control and maintain the vehicle at a constant speed. Before stop-
ping at a toll booth or similar, allow plenty of time to release the
accelerator and gently apply the br akes. A greater amount of elec-
trical energy can be regenerated when slowing down.
◆Air conditioning
Use the air conditioning only when necessary. Doing so can help
reduce excessive gasoline consumption.
In summer: When the ambient temperature is high, use the recircu-
lated air mode. Doing so will help to reduce the burden on the air
conditioning system and reduce fuel consumption as well.
In winter: Because the gasoline engi ne will not automatically cut out
until it and the interior of the vehicle are warm, it will consume fuel.
Also, fuel consumption can be impr oved by avoiding overuse of the
heater.
◆Checking tire inflation pressure
Make sure to check the tire infl ation pressure frequently. Improper
tire inflation pressure can cause poor fuel economy.
Also, as snow tires can cause larg e amounts of friction, their use on
dry roads can lead to poor fuel economy. Use tires that are appro-
priate for the season.
