When driving with the gasoline engine stopped, a sound, which changes in accordance with
the driving speed, will be played in order to warn people nearby of the vehicle’s approach.
The sound will stop when th e vehicle speed exceeds approximately 22 mph (35 km/h).
If the shift position is in N, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will not be charged. To help
prevent the battery from discharging, avoid leaving the N position selected for an extended
period of time.
In the following situations, kinetic energy is converted to electric energy and deceleration
force can be obtained in conjunction with the recharging of the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery).
● The accelerator pedal is released while dr iving with the shift position in D or M.
● The brake pedal is depressed while driving with the shift position in D or M.
