TIPS FOR IMPROVED FUEL ECONOMY
STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are
shown on the Entune™ 3.0 Audio system screen or the navigation system.
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline engine
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power for the vehicle.
To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking force generates
electricity which is then sent to the traction battery. In addition, the engine shuts off
when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fuel economy, reduced vehicle
emissions and improved performance.
- Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’s Manual.
- When possible, link trips to reduce engine cold starts.
- Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway.
- When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
- Minimize use of the air conditioning.
Hybrid Synergy Drive System
1. Put the selector lever in “P.”
2. Depress the brake pedal, and “
” will be displayed on the Multi-Information
Display (MID).
3. Press the “POWER” switch briefly and firmly.
4. The “READY” light will blink. After a few seconds, when the light remains steady
and a beep sounds, you may begin driving.
