■BSM (Blind Spot Monitor) outsid e rear view mirror indicators
(if equipped) ( P. 427)
• When the BSM function is enabled on the screen of the multi-infor- mation display, the power switch is turned to ON mode.
If the system is functioning correctly, the BSM outside rear vi ew mirror indi-
cators will turn off after a few seconds.
If the BSM outside rear view mirror indicators do not illuminat e or do not
turn off, there may be a malfunction in the system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota deale r.
●
Indicators are also displayed on the out-
side rear view mirrors.
● In order to confirm operation, the BSM
outside rear view mirror indicators illumi-
nate in the following situations:
• When the power switch is in ON
mode, the BSM function is enabled
on the screen of the multi-infor-
mation display.
WARNING
■If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS warning li ght not
come on when you start the hybrid system, this could mean that these sys-
tems are not available to help protect you in an accident, which could result
in death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer
immediately if this occurs.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the engine and its components
The engine may be overheating if the high coolant temperature warning
light comes on or flashes. In this case, immediately stop the v ehicle in a
safe place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely. (P. 718)

◆Energy monitor
The energy monitor can be used to check the vehicle drive status,
hybrid system operation status and energy regeneration status.
While charging from the external power source, the flow of electrical
energy while charging is displayed.
When energy is flowing, an arrow appears and a bright point of light
moves to show the direction of the flow of energy. When energy is
not flowing, the bright point of light is not displayed.
● The arrows from the image of the engine to that of the electric
motor (traction motor) or ti res are displayed in red.
● The arrow indicating energy consumption is displayed in yellow,
and the arrow indicating energy regeneration or charging is dis -
played in green. Also, the color around the image of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is changed.
As an example, all arrows are shown in the illustration, but th e actual
contents of the display will differ.

◆Hybrid System Indicator
The display changes according to accelerator pedal operation and
displays the current driving st atus and energy regeneration sta tus.
The display contents of the Hybrid System Indicator are differe nt in EV
mode and HV mode.
The Hybrid System Indicator can be displayed on the sub-screen of the
main display ( P. 217) and the head-up display (if equipped)
( P. 254).

How to read the display
In EV mode
Charge area
Shows that energy is being recovered via the regenerative charging.
EV driving area
Shows that the vehicle is driven using only the electric motor (traction
motor).
Gasoline engine running area
Shows that the gasoline engine is used as auxiliary power.
Eco area
Shows that the vehicle is being driven in an Eco-friendly manne r.
Changed within the “ECO Accelerator Guidance” range. ( P. 228)

*2: The EV indicator function can be turned off in the “Meter Cust omize”
settings. ( P. 248)
*3: When used in this manual, “regeneration” refers to the conversion of
energy created by the movement of the vehicle into electrical e nergy.

■When operation of each function stops
● The Hybrid System Indicator stops operating in the following si tuations.
• The “READY” indicator is not illuminated.
• The shift position is not D or B.
● The Eco score and “ECO Accelerator Guidance” stop operating in the fol-
lowing situations.
• The Hybrid System Indicator is not operating.
• Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range is being us ed.
■ Display of the remaining hyb rid battery (traction battery)
● The current amount of the remaining hybrid battery (traction ba ttery) is dis-
played in the Hybrid System Indicator or the sub-screen on the main display.
( P. 217)
• The remaining battery for EV driving in EV mode is displayed i n green,
and the remaining battery used in HV mode is displayed in blue.
• The amount of the remaining battery displayed decrease as the vehicle is
driven and increase when the hybrid battery (traction battery) is charged,
electrical energy is regenerated using the regenerative braking (P. 95)
or electricity is generated by the gasoline engine.
• If the remaining battery is not displayed in green, HV mode is automati-
cally selected and EV mode cannot be used. To enable EV driving ,
charge the hybrid battery (traction battery). ( P. 111 )
● The amount of the hybrid battery (traction battery) in HV mode is automati-
cally controlled by the hybrid system. The amount of remaining hybrid battery
(traction battery) in HV mode may not reach the top line
* even if electrical
energy is regenerated using the regenerative braking ( P. 95) or electricity
is generated by the gasoline engine. However, this does not ind icate a mal-
function. Also, even if the display of the remaining hybrid bat tery (traction
battery) exceeds the top line, the display is shown in blue unt il the vehicle
returns to EV mode.
*: The position of the boundary line between EV mode and HV mode on the
display of the remaining hybrid battery (traction battery).
● Depending on the charging situation, when the display of the re maining
hybrid battery (traction battery) is shown during charging, cha rging contin-
ues even after the display of the remaining hybrid battery (tra ction battery)
shows a fully charged state. However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
Please wait until charging is finished. The hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged

The color of the arrows will change as follows.
Green: When the hybrid battery (tr action battery) is regenerated or
charged.
Yellow: When the hybrid battery (traction battery) is in use.
Red: When the gasolin e engine is in use.

■Remaining charge amount warning of hybrid battery (traction battery)
●The buzzer sounds intermittently when the hybrid battery (traction battery)
remains without charging while the shift position is in N, or t he remaining
charge amount drops below a certain level. If the remaining cha rge amount
drops further, the buzzer sounds continuously.
● When a warning message is shown on the multi-information display and the
buzzer sounds, follow the instructions displayed on the screen to perform
troubleshooting.
■ Color of the hybrid battery (tract ion battery) on the multimedia system
screen
It will be green when the hybrid battery (traction battery) is being charged,
and yellow when the hybrid battery (traction battery) is being used.
■ Color of the gasoline engine on the multimedia system screen
It will be blue when the engine is warming up.
