Operation of each component
■Jam protection function
If an object becomes jammed between the side window and the win dow
frame while the side window is closing, side window movement is stopped
and the side window is opened slightly.
■ Catch protection function
If an object becomes caught between the door and side window wh ile the
side window is opening, side window movement is stopped.
■ When the window cannot be opened or closed
When the jam protection function or catch protection function o perates
unusually and the side window cannot be opened and closed, perf orm the fol-
lowing operations with the power window switch of that door.
● Stop the vehicle. With the power switch in ON mode, within 4 se conds of the
jam protection function or catch protection function activating , continuously
operate the power window switch in the one-touch closing direct ion or one-
touch opening direction so that the side window can be opened a nd closed.
● If the side window cannot be opened and closed even when perfor ming the
above operations, perform the following procedure for function initialization.
Turn the power switch to ON mode.

WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■Closing the windows
● The driver is responsible for all the power window operations, including the
operation for the passengers. In order to prevent accidental op eration,
especially by a child, do not let a child operate the power windows. It is
possible for children and other passengers to have body parts c aught in
the power window. Also, when riding with a child, it is recommended to use
the window lock switch. ( P. 312)

■Heating
●In HV mode, the gasoline engine may operate in order to extract heat from
the engine coolant via the heater.
● In EV mode, heating is done by a heat pump system.
• When the outside temperature is low or it is snowing, compared to con-
ventional vehicles, heating may be less effective and warm air may not
come out.
• If frost has formed on the outside heat exchanger, the heating perfor-
mance will decline. The frost can be removed from the outside heat
exchanger by operating the Remote Air Conditioning System befor e driv-
ing ( P. 522). When frosted over, the heating operation of the Remote
Air Conditioning System starts after defrosting.
• When is turned on, the heating is controlled optimally. Therefore, the set heating performance may not be achieved even if the fan speed
setting is increased.
● In the following situations the gasoline engine may operate in order to
extract heat from the engine coolant via the heater even in EV mode.
• The outside temperature is approximately 14°F (-10°C) or low
• is operating
■ Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperatur e setting and
the ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow
immediately after is pressed.
■ Water droplets during air conditioning operation• When the outside heat exchanger is
frosted over, fan speed declines and it
may become harder to heat the inte-
rior. However, it is not a malfunction.
In this situation, the air temperature
from the outlets may not change even
though the set temperature is raised.
The outside heat exchanger, accumulator
and air conditioning piping may incur con-
densation or frost may form. During or
after the air conditioning operation, water
droplets may fall from the vehicle. How-
ever, it is not a malfunction.

Remote Air Conditioning System
If the Remote Air Conditioning System is used while the chargin g
cable is connected to the vehicl e, the reduction of charge in the hybrid
battery (traction battery) will be suppressed to allow you to u se elec-
tricity from an exte rnal power source.
Charging will be conducted automatically after the Remote Air C ondition-
ing System is stopped.
Check the temperature setting o f the air conditioning system.
(  P. 500, 512)
The Remote Air Conditioning System will operate in accordance w ith the
temperature settings of the air conditioning system.
Press and hold “A/C” on the wire-
less remote control to operate the
Remote Air Conditioning System.
The system will shut off if a door is
opened.
The system can be stopped by
pressing “A/C” twice.
The Remote Air Conditioning System uses electrical energy
stored in the hybrid battery (traction battery) and allows the air
conditioning to be operated by remote control.

tem, the electric fan may spin and an operating noise may be heard. How-
ever, this does not indicate a malfunction.
● The Remote Air Conditioning System may stop operating temporari ly if
other features that use electricity (for example, the seat heater, lights, wind-
shield wipers) are in operation or if the charge level of the 1 2-volt battery
becomes low.
