The distance that can be driven in EV mode varies significantly
depending on how the vehicle is driven, road conditions, the we ather,
the outside temperature, usage con ditions of electrical components
and the number o f occupants.
The distance that can be driven in EV mode can be extended if t he fol-
lowing is performed:
● Maintain a safe distance from t he vehicle in front and avoid un nec-
essary acceleration and deceleration
● Accelerate and decelerate the v ehicle as smoothly as possible
● Drive at moderate speeds as much as possible and maintain a con -
stant speed
● Set the air conditioning to a moderate temperature and turn the “A/C”
switch (
*1 • *2) off when it is not needed
● Use tires of the specified size and maintain the specified tire pres-
sure
● Use the EV/HV mode selection switch to drive in HV mode when
driving on a highway
Electricity consumption will in crease substantially when drivin g on a
highway in EV mode.
● Do not add unnecessary w eight to the vehicle
*1: Vehicles with 7-inch display
*2: Vehicles with 11.6-inch display
The following indicate that charging has been carried out prope rly.
● The charging indicator turns off
● The Hybrid battery (traction battery) status indicators illumin ate for
approximately 15 seconds. ( P. 110)
● “Charging Complete” is displayed on the multi-information displ ay
when starting off ( P. 137)
Regardless of the type of power source or whether the charging timer
function is used, charging is c ompleted if the above can be confirmed.

■Opening the charging port lid
Vehicles without smart lid &
connector locking system:
Press the rear edge of the
charging port lid (the position
shown in the illustration).
Push and take your hand away
to slightly open the charging port
lid. Then open the lid fully by
hand.
Vehicles with smart lid & con-
nector locking system:
Press the rear edge of the
charging port lid (the position
shown in the illustration) with
the doors unlocked.
Push and take your hand away to slightly open the charging port lid.
Then open the lid fully by hand.
While the doors are locked, only the charging port lid can be u nlocked
by carrying an electronic key and pressing the charging port li d.

■Closing the charging port lid
Close the charging port lid and
press the rear edge of the
charging port lid (the position
shown in the illustration).
Vehicles with smart lid & con-
nector locking system:
• When the doors are locked with the smart key system,
wireless remote control or
door lock switch, the charging
port lid is also locked.
(P. 275, 277)
• If the charging port lid is closed with the doors locked,
the charging port lid locks.
When the charging cable is con-
nected to the charging inlet, the
user is informed of the charging
status of the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) by the statuses of 3
indicators (turned off, illuminated
or flashing).

The illumination/flashing pattern
changes to inform the user of the
charging status in the following
ways.
*1: Flashes for approximately 15 seconds.
*2: Flashes for approximately 10 seconds.
■Charging indicator
When a system malfunction occurs while charging or using the Re mote Air
Conditioning System, the charging indicator rapidly flashes for approximately
10 seconds, and then turns off.
If this occurs, the next time the hybrid system is started, a m essage is dis-
played on the multi-information display. When a message is displayed, follow
the instructions displayed on the screen.

The CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) has the following
safety features.
■Electrical leakage detection function
If an electrical leakage is detected during charging, the power
source will be automatically interrupted, thus preventing fires or
electrical shocks caused by electrical leakage.
If the power source is interrupted, the error warning indicator flashes.
If the power source is interrupted: P. 1 1 6
■
Automatic check function
This is an automatic system check that is run before charging
begins to check for pr oblems in the operation of the electrical leak-
age detection function.
If a malfunction is found in the electrical leakage detection f unction as a
result of the check, the error warning indicator flashes to inf orm the
user. ( P. 116)
■
Temperature detection function
A temperature detection function is equipped to the plug. While
charging, if heat is generated due to looseness on the outlet s ide
etc., this function suppresses heat by controlling the charging cur-
rent.
■Conditions for supplying current to the vehicle
The CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is designed to pre-
vent electrical current from bei ng supplied to the charging con nec-
tor when it is not connected to the vehicle, even if the plug i s
inserted into the outlet.
