C-HR_HV_OM_Europe_OM10720E
■ Changing a driving mode when in EV drive mode
EV drive mode can be used in conjunction with “ECO” mode and “S PORT”
mode.
However, EV drive mode may be automatically canceled when used in con-
junction with “SPORT” mode.
■ Fuel economy
The hybrid system is designed to achieve the best possible fuel economy
during normal driving (using the gasoline engine and electric m otor [traction
motor]). Driving in EV drive mode more than necessary may lower fuel econ-
omy.
WARNING
■ Caution while driving
When driving in EV drive mode, pay special attention to the are a around the
vehicle. Because there is no engine noise, pedestrians, people riding bicy-
cles or other people and vehicles in the area may not be aware of the vehi-
cle starting off or approaching them, so take extra care while driving.
Therefore, take extra care while driving even if the acoustic v ehicle alerting
system is active.

■When driving with cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range acti vated (if equipped)
Even when performing the following with the intent of enabling engine brak-
ing, engine braking will not activate because cruise control or dynamic radar
cruise control with full-speed range will not be canceled.
● When switching the driving mode to sport mode while driving in D position.
( P. 432)
■ Restraining sudden start (Drive-start Control)
 P. 286
■ Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to prevent accidental operati on of the shift

■Shift ranges and their functions (S mode)
● You can choose from 6 levels of accelerating force and engine braking
force.
● A lower shift range will provide greater accelerating force and engine brak-
ing force than a higher shift range, and the engine revolutions will also
increase.
■ When driving with cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range acti vated (if equipped)
Even when performing the following with the intent of enabling engine brak-
ing, engine braking will not activate because cruise control or dynamic radar
cruise control with full-speed range will not be canceled.
● While driving in S mode, downshifting to 5 or 4.
● When switching the driving mode to sport mode while driving in D position.
( P. 432)
■ Restraining sudden start (Drive-start Control)
 P. 286
■ Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to prevent accidental operati on of the shift
lever in starting.
The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the power switc h is in ON
mode and the brake pedal is being depressed.
■ If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
First, check whether the brake pedal is being depressed.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot on the brak e pedal while
pressing the button on the shift knob, there may be a problem w ith the shift
lock system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyot a retailer or

●“ECO” mode
Helps the driver accelerate in an eco-friendly manner and
improve fuel economy through moderate throttle characteristics
and by controlling the operation of the air conditioning system
(heating/cooling).
When Eco mode is selected, the “ECO MODE” indicator will illumi -
nate on the multi-information display.
While the air conditioning is being used, the system automatica lly
switches to air conditioning eco mode ( P. 554), allowing for driving
that leads to even better fuel economy.
