1-2. Child safety
For safety and security
WARNING
QWhen installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system in a rear seat. In the event that the rear seat cannot be
used, the front seat can be used as long as the airbag manual on-off sys-tem is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag deployment (inflation) may cause
serious injury or even death.
QWhen a child restraint system is
not installed on the front passen- ger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off
system is set to “ON”. If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident,
which may result in serious injury or even death.
Riding with children
Observe the following precau-
tions when children are in the
vehicle.
Use a child restraint system
appropriate for the child, until
the child becomes large
enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belt.
 It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact with
the shift lever, wiper switch,
etc.
 Use the rear door child-protec-
tor lock or the window lock
switch to avoid children open-
ing the door while driving or
operating the power window
accidentally. ( P.207, 249)
 Do not let small children oper-
ate equipment which may
catch or pinch body parts,
such as the power window,
hood, back door, seats, etc.

Plug-in hybrid system
maximum of approximately 30 min-
utes. However, when the “Departure”
time is set (P.143) and there is not
sufficient time between the current
time and the time that charging will
complete, “Battery Cooler” operation
time may become shorter.
OWhen there is a small amount of
remaining charge in the hybrid battery
(traction battery), even if the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is hot, “Bat-
tery Cooler” may not be implemented.
OWhen the following operations are
performed while “Battery Cooler” is
operating, the hybrid battery (traction
battery) cooling operation stops.
• The hood is opened
• The power switch is turned to any
mode other than off
• The Remote Air Conditioning System
is operated (P.414)
• “Charge Now” is implemented
(P.144)
O“Battery Cooler” uses the power of the
hybrid battery (traction battery) and
external power source.
• While “Battery Cooler” is operating,
the amount of the remaining charge of
the hybrid battery (traction battery)
increases and decreases in a certain
range, and does not increase as in
normal charging.
• The operation of “Battery Cooler” is
recognized as charging by a charger.
The charger that calculates the fee
according to charging time causes a
charging fee.
To enable the use of EV mode or
AUTO EV/HV mode, we recom-
mend systematically charging the
vehicle.
QBefore leaving home
In order to use EV mode or AUTO
EV/HV mode, charge the hybrid
battery (traction battery) at home
before leaving.
The charging schedule function
(P.143) can be used to set the sys-
tem to automatically fully charge the
hybrid battery (traction battery) before
your desired departure time. It is also
possible to set the air conditioning to
make the interior in a comfortable state
before your desired departure time.
QAt your destination
