2 2-2. Charging
Plug-in hybrid system
■Charging ends earlier than time set in “Departure” or “Departure
time”
■Charging is not complete, even though it is time set in “Departure”
or “Departure time”
“Battery Heater” (P.128) operated
When the charging mode is set to
“Departure” or “Departure time”, “Battery
Heater” may operate before charging
starts. Check the status of the charging
indicator of the charging port. (P.107)
Outside temperature is low and hybrid
battery (traction battery) warming control
(P.128) operated (Greenland only)
When hybrid battery (traction battery)
warming control operates, the charging
schedules are ignored and charging
starts. In order to protect the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery), allow charging to
continue.
Likely causeCorrection procedure
Charging end time does not match esti-
mated end time due to condition of power
source or outside temperature
If sudden changes in temperature or
changes in the condition of the power
source occur while charging, charging
may end earlier than the time estimated
by the system.
Likely causeCorrection procedure
“Climate Prep” or “Climate preparation” is
set to on
When “Climate Prep” or “Climate prepa-
ration” is set to on, the air conditioning
operates until the set departure time.
Therefore, charging may not complete by
the set time due to charging conditions.
To have the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) fully charged, allow charging to con-
tinue.
Charging end time does not match esti-
mated end time due to condition of power
source or outside temperature
If sudden changes in temperature or
changes in the condition of the power
source occur while charging, charging
may not end exactly at the time esti-
mated by the system.

tion, the color and illuminating/flash-
ing state of the light change.
*3: The light comes on when the system

tion in a system if the lights do not
turn on, or turn off. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
*6: This light illuminates on the outside
rear view mirrors.

■Hybrid System Indicator
The display contents of the Hybrid Sys-
tem Indicator are different in EV mode
and HV mode.
READY OFF area
Shows that the hybrid system is not
operating.
Charge area
Shows regeneration
* status. Regener-
ated energy will be used to charge the hybrid battery (traction battery).
Eco area
Shows that the vehicle is being driven in
an Eco-friendly manner.
By keeping the indicator needle within
Eco area, more Eco-friendly driving can
be achieved.
Power area
Shows that an Eco-friendly driving range
is being exceeded (during full power
driving etc.)
EV driving area (EV mode or AUTO
EV/HV mode)
Shows that the vehicle is driven using
only the electric motor (traction motor).
Hybrid Eco area (HV mode)
Shows that gasoline engine power is not
being used very often.
The gasoline engine will automatically
stop and restart under various condi-
tions.
*: When used in this manual, “regenera-
tion” refers to the conversion of
energy created by the movement of
the vehicle into electrical energy.
In the following situation, the Hybrid
System Indicator does not operate.
●“READY” indicator is not illuminated.
●The shift lever is in a range other than
D or S.
■Outside temperature display
●In the following situations, the correct
outside temperature may not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer
than normal to change.
• When stopped (including when using
“My Room Mode”), or driving at low
speeds (less than 20 km/h [12 mph])

■Hybrid System Indicator is dis-
played when
The Hybrid System Indicator is dis-
played in the following situations:
●The shift position is in D or S.
●The hybrid system is started.
■SOC (State of Charge) gauge
Displays the current amount of charge
remaining in the traction battery.
●The remaining battery for EV driving
in EV mode is displayed in 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.90) or
electricity is generated by the gasoline
engine.
●If the remaining battery is not dis-
played in green, HV mode is automat-
ically selected and EV mode cannot
be used. To enable EV driving, charge
the hybrid battery (traction battery).
(P.106)
The hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged
The hybrid battery (traction battery)
for EV mode is not remaining
■Distance to empty
●This distance is computed based on
your average fuel consumption. As a
result, the actual distance that can be
driven may differ from that displayed.
●When only a small amount of fuel is
added to the tank, the display may not
be updated. When refueling, turn the
power switch off. If the vehicle is refu-
eled without turning the power switch
off, the display may not be updated.
●When “Refuel” is displayed, the
remaining fuel amount is low and the
distance that can be driven with the
remaining fuel cannot be calculated.
Refuel immediately.
■EV driving range
●When the air conditioning system is
operating, is displayed next to
the EV driving range and the EV driv-
ing range with the air conditioning sys-
tem on is displayed.
●The EV driving range may shorten
even when not driving due to power
consumption by the system.
●For details, refer to “EV driving range”
