SPORT HYBRID i-MMD SYSTEM MAIN COMPONENTS
Gasoline Engine– Runs the generator and under certain
conditions, drives the wheels directly.
Generator– Starts the engine and generates electric power
when driven by the gasoline engine to supply electricity to
power the electric motor and/or to charge the High Voltage
battery.
Electric Motor– Provides propulsion to drive the wheels in
conjunction with the gasoline engine in certain conditions, and
provides electricity to the High Voltage battery through
regenerative braking.
High Voltage Battery– Provides electrical storage and serves
as a power source for the electric motor.
Learning about the High Voltage battery’s characteristics will
help you get the best handling and maximize the range of your
electric vehicle. (P486)
High Voltage Battery Charge Level Indicator– Displays
battery state of charge.
When the indicator:
•Displays two or less segments, EV mode is no longer available.
•Displays ten segments, battery charge level is full.

Driving Speed
Stopped or driven at low speeds:●Only the electric motor
provides propulsion to the
wheels.Driven in high-load conditions
(e.g., when accelerating, going
uphill):
●The Electric Motor provides
propulsion to the wheels.
●The gasoline engine drives the
generator, supplying
electricity to the electric
motor for added propulsion
or to the High Voltage battery
for charging.
Driven in high-speed, low-load
conditions:
●The gasoline e ngine provides
propulsion to the wheels.
●The High Voltage battery
supplies electricity to the
electric motor for added
propulsion.
●The electric motor provides
electricity to the High Voltage
battery through regenerative
braking.
The accelerator pedal is released
and the vehicle is decelerating.
●The electric motor provides
electricity to the High Voltage
battery through regenerative
braking.

Quick Reference Guide
●Regenerative Energy and Regenerative BrakingWhen the vehicle is decelerating or descending a hill, the electric motor acts as a generator that
recovers a portion of the energy that was used to accelerate the vehicle.
The regenerative force that the electric motor app lies to the wheels when it is in regenerative
mode helps to slow the vehicle down in a manner similar to engine braking which is used on
conventional vehicles. If you want to slow the vehicle down at a faster rate without using the
brakes, you can use the deceleration paddle selector to increase the resistive force.

Safe Driving (P 41)
Airbags (P 53)
●Your vehicle is fitted with airbags to help protect you and
your passengers during a moderate-to-severe collision.
Child Safety (P 68)
●All children 12 and younger should be seated in the rear seat.●Smaller children should be properly restra ined in a forward-facing child seat.●Infants must be properly restrained in a rear-facing child seat.
Exhaust Gas Hazard (P 81)
●Your vehicle emits dangerous exhaust gases that contain carbon
monoxide. Do not run the engine in confined spaces where carbon
monoxide gas can accumulate.
Before Driving Checklist (P 45)
●Before driving, check that the front seats, head restraints,
steering wheel, and mirrors have been properly adjusted.
Seat Belts (P 46)
●Fasten your seat belt and sit upright well
back in the seat.
●Check that your passengers are wearing
their seat belts correctly.
Fasten your lap belt as
low as possible.
