1282-2. Charging
charging.
■“My Room Mode” (P.164)
When the AC charging cable is
connected to the vehicle, electrical
components such as the air condi-
tioning system or audio system can
be used using the external power
source
*.
*: The power of the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) may be used depending
on the situation.
■“Battery Heater”
When the outside temperature is
low and the AC charging cable is
connected to the vehicle, this func-
tion automatically warms the hybrid
battery (traction battery) until it
reaches or exceeds a certain tem-
perature.
“Battery Heater” will operate when
the “Battery Heater” of the
“Charging Settings” on the multi-
information display is on. (P.207)
■Hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) warming control (Green-
land only)
This control operates after the AC
charging cable remains connected
to the vehicle for 3 days and “Bat-
tery Heater” automatically stops. It
automatically insulates the hybrid
battery (traction battery) in
extremely low temperatures.
This control stops 31 days after
the AC charging cable is con-
nected, even if it is still con-
nected to the vehicle.When this control operates,
charging schedule settings are
ignored and charging starts.
■“Battery Cooler”
When the hybrid battery (traction
battery) is hot and the AC charging
cable is connected to the vehicle,
this function cools the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) before
charging is carried out.
“Battery Cooler” will operate when
the “Battery Cooler” of the
“Charging Settings” on the multi-
information display is on. (P.207)
■Traction battery heating and cool-
ing system (“Battery Heater” and
“Battery Cooler”)
●The system operates when the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is below or
above a certain temperature.
●The system may operate when
charging is not being performed.
●When the charging schedule is used
(P.144), this function will operate
according to the charging schedule.
■“Battery Heater”
●When “Battery Heater” is operating,
the charging indicator illuminates.
●When the AC charging cable is
removed from the vehicle or remains
connected to the vehicle for approxi-
mately 3 days, the system automati-
cally stops.
●When “Battery Heater” is operating
during charging, the charging time
may be longer than normal.
●If the outside temperature becomes
high while “Battery Heater” is operat-
ing, charging may complete earlier
than the “Departure” or “Departure
time” time set. (P.144)
●When the following operations are

1342-2. Charging
speed for EV driving. (P.90)
●Leave a low level of charge in the
hybrid battery (traction battery) when
leaving the vehicle undriven for a long
period of time.
After confirming that EV mode or
AUTO EV/HV mode has switched to
HV mode, turn the power switch off.
●Use the charging schedule function as
much as possible in order to fully
charge the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) immediately before starting off.
(P.144)
Also, if the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) capacity reduces, the distance that
can be driven in EV mode or AUTO
EV/HV mode decreases. However, vehi-
cle performance does not significantly
become worse.
■When the remaining charge of the
hybrid battery (traction battery) is
low after charging
In the following situations, the remaining
charge of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) after charging completes may
be less than normal in order to protect
the system (the EV driving range after
the battery is fully charged may be
shorter).
*
●Charging is carried out when the out-
side temperature is low or high.
●Charging is carried out immediately
after high-load driving or in extreme
heat.
When none of the above situations
apply and there is a drastic drop in the
remaining charge of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) after charging com-
pletes, have the vehicle inspected by
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
*: When this occurs, even if the remain-
ing charge display of the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) shows that it is
fully charged, the remaining charge
rapidly decreases faster than normal.
■When the charging amount sent to
the hybrid battery (traction battery)
decreases
When the amount of power supplied by
the charger is low or operation of the
“Battery Heater”, etc., reduces the
charging power sent to the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery), the charging
amount sent to the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) may decrease.
■Charging time may increase
In the following situations, charging time
may become longer than normal:
●In very hot or very cold temperatures.
●When the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) becomes hot, such as immedi-
ately after high-load driving.
●The vehicle is consuming a lot of elec-
tricity, for example, when the head-
lights are on etc.
●When using “My Room Mode”.
(P.164)
●There is a power outage during
charging.
●There is an interruption in the electri-
cal supply.
●There is a drop in the voltage of exter-
nal power source.
●The charge in the 12-volt battery is
low, for example due to the vehicle
being left unused for a long period of
time.
●The maximum charging current is set
to 8A or 16A*. (P.125, 126)
●When the “Battery Heater” operates.
(P.128)
●When the “Battery Cooler” is operated
before charging. (P.128)
●When the plug generates heat due to
a loose socket connection etc.
*: Vehicles with 7 kW onboard traction
battery charger only
■Using a DC Charger
DC Chargers cannot be used with this
vehicle.

1462-2. Charging
●A maximum of 15 charging schedules
can be registered.
■To make sure that the charging
schedule function operates cor-
rectly
Check the following items.
●The clock is adjusted to the proper
time
●The calendar is set to the correct date
●Check that the power switch is turned
off
●After registering the charging sched-
ule, connect the AC charging cable
The charging start time is determined
based on the charging schedule at the
time that the AC charging cable was
connected.
●After connecting the AC charging
cable, check that the charging indica-
tor of the charging port flashes
(P.107)
●Do not use an socket that has a power
cut off function (including a timer func-
tion)
Use an socket that constantly supplies
electricity. For sockets where the
power is cut off due to a timer func-
tion, etc., charging may not be carried
out according to plan if the power is
cut off during the set time.
●The automatic adjustment of the clock
by GPS is set to on.
For details regarding setting clock, refer
to “Multimedia Owner’s Manual”.
■When the AC charging cable
remains connected to the vehicle
Even if multiple consecutive charging
schedules are registered, the next
charge will not be carried out according
to the charging schedule until the AC
charging cable is removed and recon-
nected after charging completes. Also,
when the hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged, charging according to
the charging schedule will not be carried
out.
■“Climate Prep” or “Climate prepa-
ration”
●When the air conditioning-linked set-
ting is turned on, the air conditioning
operates until the set departure time.
Therefore, the air conditioning will
consume electricity and charging may
not complete by the set departure
time.
●If the hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged, charging will not be
carried out, even if the charging
schedule is set. However, if “Climate
Prep” or “Climate preparation” is
turned on, the air conditioning will
operate only once when it nears the
time set in “Departure” or “Departure
time”. If this occurs, the air condition-
ing will consume electricity and the
remaining charge of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) when departing may
be decreased.
●When the doors are unlocked, the air
conditioning system does not operate.
■When charging schedules are
ignored
When the following operations are per-
formed while the charging schedule is
on standby, charging schedule is tempo-
rarily canceled and charging is started.
●When the Remote Air Conditioning
System (P.438) is operated
●When turning “My Room Mode” on
(P.164)
●When turning “Charge Now” on
(P.150, 156, 162)
●When an operation that temporarily
cancels charging using the charging
schedule is performed (P.138)
■Effects of outside temperature
When the charging mode is set to
“Departure” or “Departure time”,
charging schedule may be ignored due
to the outside temperature and charging
may start.
