Owners Manual_USA_M0C031_en
vehicle. At slow speeds or when
traveling down a gentle slope,
the engine is stopped
* and the
electric motor (traction motor) is
used.
*: When the hybrid battery (traction battery) requires charging or the
engine is warming up, etc., the
gasoline engine will not automati-
cally stop. ( P. 7 4 )
■During normal driving
The gasoline engine is predomi-
nantly used. The electric motor
(traction motor) charges the
hybrid battery (traction battery)
as necessary.
■When accelerating sharply
When the accelerator pedal is
depressed heavily, the power of
the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) is added to that of the gas-
oline engine via the electric
motor (traction motor).
■When braking (regenera-
tive braking)
The wheels operate the electric
motor (traction motor) as a
power generator, and the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is
charged.
■Regenerative braking
●In the following si tuations, kinetic
energy is converted to electric
energy and deceleration force can
be obtained in conjunction with
the recharging of the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery).
• The accelerator pedal is released while driving with the shift lever in D or S.
• The brake pedal is depressed while driving with t he shift lever in
D or S.
■Conditions in which the gaso-
line engine may not stop
The gasoline engine starts and
stops automatically. However, it may
not stop automatic ally in the follow-
ing conditions:
●During gasoline engine warm-up
●During hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) charging
●When the temperature of the
hybrid battery (traction battery) is
high or low
●When the heater is switched on
●When the “TOW HA UL” switch is
on
●When the “MTS” switch is on
●When the front-wheel drive control
switch is in “4H” or “4L”
●When the hood is opened during
“READY” indicator is illuminated
●When the shift lever is shifted to S
Depending on the circumstances,
the gasoline engine may also not
stop automatically in other situa-
tions.
■Charging the hybrid battery
(traction battery)
As the gasoline engine charges the
hybrid battery (trac tion battery), the
battery does not need to be charged
from an outside source. However, if
the vehicle is left parked for a long
time the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) will slowly dis charge. For this
reason, be sure to drive the vehicle
at least once every few months for
at least 30 minutes or 10 miles (16
km). If the hybrid battery (traction
battery) becomes fully discharged
and you are unabl e to start the
hybrid system, contact your Toyota
dealer.
