Plug-in hybrid vehicle driving tips
◆Using EV mode and HV mode effectively
Primarily using EV mode when driving in cities and using HV mod e
when driving on highways (or freeways) can help conserve fuel a nd
electricity. ( P. 9 0 )
◆Using Eco drive mode
When using Eco drive mode, the torque corresponding to the acce l-
erator pedal depression amount can be generated more smoothly
than it is in normal conditions. In addition, the operation of the air
conditioning system (heating/coo ling) will be minimized, improving
fuel and electricity economy. ( P. 425)
◆Use of Hybrid System Indicator
Eco-friendly driving is possible by keeping the Hybrid System I ndi-
cator within Eco area. ( P. 225)
◆Shift position operation
Shift the shift position to D when stopped at a traffic light, or driving
in heavy traffic etc. Shift the shift position to P when parkin g. When
using the N, there is no positiv e effect on fuel consumption. In the
N, the gasoline engine operates but electricity cannot be gener -
ated. Also, when using the air conditioning system, etc., the h ybrid
battery (traction batt ery) power is consumed.
For economical and ecological dri ving, pay attention to the fol-
lowing points:

5-5. Using the driving support systems
Normal mode
Suitable for normal driving.
When normal mode is selected, the “ECO MODE” and “PWR MODE”
indicators turn off.
Power mode
Suitable for when crisp handling and enhanced accelerator
response are desired, such as when driving on mountainous roads .
When power mode is selected, the “PWR MODE” indicator will illu mi-
nate on the main display.
Eco drive mode
Suitable for driving that impro ves fuel economy by generating
torque in response to accelerator pedal operations more smoothl y
than in normal mode.
When Eco drive mode is selected, the “ECO MODE” indicator will illumi-
nate on the main display.
While the air conditioning is being used, the system automatically
switches to air conditioning eco mode (P. 511, 523), allowing for driv-
ing that leads to even better fuel economy.
■ The driving mode after turning the power switch off
The driving mode will not be changed automatically until the switch is
pressed, even if the power switch is turned off.

Maintenance and care
WARNING
■Replacing a tire
●Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes immedi-
ately after the vehi cle has been driven.
After the vehicle has been driven the disc wheels and the area around
the brakes will be extremely hot. Touching these areas with han ds, feet
or other body parts while changin g a tire, etc. may result in burns.
●Failure to follow these precautions could cause the wheel nuts to
loosen and the t ire to fall off, resulting in death or serious injury.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 76 ft•lb f
(103 N•m, 10.5 kgf•m) as soon as possible after changing wheels.
• When installing a tire, only use wheel nuts that have been spe cifi-
cally designed for that wheel.
• If there are any cracks or defo rmations in the bolt screws, nut
threads or bolt holes of the wheel, have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer.
• When installing the wheel nuts, be sure to install the wheel n uts with
the tapered ends facing inward.

7-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Remove any dirt or foreign mat-
ter from the wheel contact sur-
face.
If foreign matter is on the wheel
contact surface, the wheel nuts
may loosen while the vehicle is in
motion, causing the tire to come
off.
Install the tire and loosely
tighten each wheel nut by hand
by approximately the same
amount.
Turn the wheel nuts until the
washers come into contact with
the disc wheel.
Lower the vehicle.
Firmly tighten each wheel nut
two or three times in the order
shown in the illustration.
