“ECO Accelerator Guidance”
A blue zone is displayed in the
Eco area which can be used as
a reference operation range for
using the accelerator pedal
according to driving conditions
such as starting off and cruis-
ing.
The “ECO Accelerator Guid-
ance” display changes accord-
ing to the driving status, such as
when starting off or cruising.
It is easier to drive in an Eco-friendly manner by driving according to the
display showing the accelerator pedal operations and staying within the
“ECO Accelerator Guidance” range. ( →P. 215)
The “ECO Accelerator Guidance” function can be turned off in the

■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.

“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 operation of each function stops
● The Hybrid System Indicator stops operating in the following situations.
• The “READY” indicator is not illuminated.
• The shift position is not D or B.
● The Eco score and “ECO Accelerator Guidance” stop operating in the fol-
lowing situations.
• The Hybrid System Indicator is not operating.
• Cruise control (if equipped) or dynamic radar cruise control with full-
speed range (if equipped) is being used.
■ 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. 136). 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.
■ Predictive Efficient Drive (Predict ive 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
informs the driver of releasing the accelerator pedal early.
For details about Predictive Efficient Dr ive (Predictive Deceleration Support),
refer to the “NAVIGATION SYSTEM OWNER’S MANUAL”.

played until the “HUD” switch is used to turn the head-up display on again.
(Operation of the head-up display is not linked with the power switch.)
■ Display brightness
●The brightness of the head-up display is automatically adjusted according to
the operation status of the headlights (on/off) and the brightness of the sur-
roundings.
● When the brightness of the head-up display is adjusted to a certain level or
higher, the display automatically dims when the vehicle is stopped. Once the
vehicle starts off and the vehicle speed reaches approximately 3.1 mph
(5 km/h) or more, the display automatically returns to its previous bright-
ness.
