The possible driving range estimated from the remaining fuel
amount, average vehicle speed after the hybrid system is started,
and average fuel consumption are displayed. (P. 132)
■LDA (Lane Departure Alert with steering control) vehicle sway
warning (if equipped)
Detects the sway of the vehicle within a lane, which is often associ-
ated with a decrease in the driver’s attention level, and displays the
decrease in attention using a bar display.
The shorter the bar length, the more the driver may need to rest.
This display is a part of the LDA (Lane Departure Alert with steering
control) system. The display is enabled when the operating conditions
of the vehicle sway warning function are met. (P. 284)

Distance to empty
• Since it is calculated based on
the average fuel consumption in
the past, it may not be the actual
distance that can be driven to be
displayed.
• When only a small amount of fuel
is added to the tank, the display
may not be updated. When refu-
eling, turn the power switch off. If
the vehicle is refueled without
turning the power switch off, the
display may not be updated.

ditions.

WARNING
■Caution for use while driving
● When operating the multi-information display while driving, pay extra
attention to the safety of the area around the vehicle.
● Do not look continuously at the multi-information display while driving as
you may fail to see pedestrians, objects on the road, etc. ahead of the
vehicle.
NOTICE
■ The multi-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.

■Updating the past record data
Update the average fuel consumption by selecting “Update” to measure the
current fuel consumption again.
■Resetting the data
The fuel consumption data can be deleted by selecting “Clear”.
■Cruising range
Displays the estimated maximum distance that can be driven with the quan-
tity of fuel remaining.
This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumption.
As a result, the actual distance that can be driven may differ from that dis-
played.

Firmly set the parking brake with the brake pedal depressed, and
then shift the shift position to D.
Release the brake pedal and gently depress the accelerator pedal.
Release the parking brake.
■When starting off on a uphill
The hill-start assist control will activate. (P. 319)
■For fuel-efficient driving
Keep in mind that hybrid vehicles are similar to conventional vehicles, and it
is necessary to refrain from activities such as sudden acceleration. (P. 324)
■Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the win-
dows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
●Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be espe-
cially slippery.
●Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the rain,
because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road sur-
face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
■Restraining the hybrid system output (Brake Override System)
●When the accelerator and brake pedals are depressed at the same time, the
hybrid system output may be restrained.
●Vehicles without multi-information display: A warning light comes on while
the system is operating. (P. 447)
●Vehicles with multi-information display: A warning message is displayed on
the multi-information display while the system is operating. (P. 464)
■Restraining sudden start (Drive-Start Control)
When the following unusual operation is performed, the hybrid system output
may be restrained.
●When the shift position is shifted from R to D/B, D/B to R, N to R, P to D/B, P
to R with the accelerator pedal depressed, a warning light comes on (vehi-
cles without multi-information display) or a warning message appears on the
multi-information display (vehicles with multi-information display).
(P. 447, 460)
●When the accelerator pedal is depressed too much while the vehicle is in
reverse.
