This vehicle has been designed
to allow charging from an exter-
nal power source using a AC
charging cable for exclusive use
with standard household AC
outlets.
However, the vehicle differs
greatly from standard household
electrical goods in the following
ways, and incorrect usage could
cause fire or electric shock, pos-
sibly leading to death or serious
injury.
When charging, a large
amount of current will flow for
a long time.
Charging can be conducted
outdoors.
To charge properly, follow the
procedure after reading the
explanation below. Charging is
intended to be carried out by
licensed drivers only who prop-
erly understand the charging
procedure.
Do not allow children to use
the AC charging cable without supervision. Also, keep the
AC charging cable out of
reach of infants.
When charging with a char-
ger, follow the procedures for
using each charger.
When charging using a public
charging facility, check the
setting of the charging sched-
ule function.
• When the charging schedule is
registered, temporarily turn off
the function or turn “Charge Now”
on. ( P.135, 141, 147)
• When the charging schedule is set to on, charging will not start
even if the AC charging cable is
connected. Also, charging fee
may occur due to connection of
the AC charging cable.
Before charging, always check
the following items.
The parking brake is applied.
( P.314)
Lights such as the head-
lights, emergency flashers
and interior lights etc. are
turned off.
If these light swit ches are turned
on, then these features will con-
sume electricity, and charging time
will increase.
The power switch is turned to
OFF. ( P.307)
WARNING
■When the AC charging cable
is connected to the vehicle
Do not operate the shift lever.
In the unlikely event that the AC
charging cable has been dam-
aged, the shift position may
change from P to another position
and the vehicle could move, pos-
sibly leading to an accident.
Charging precautions
Confirm the following
before charging

1282-2. Charging
■Calendar settings
The current date an d time is auto-
matically set using GPS. However, if
the automatic setti ng of the clock is
turned off on the Multimedia Dis-
play, it is necessary to set the calen-
dar on the multi-information display
( P.191, 203). For details, refer to
the “MULTIMEDIA OWNER’S MAN-
UAL”.
If the calendar settings check
screen is displayed when an
attempt is made to register a
charging schedule, make sure that
the calendar settings are correctly. If
the calendar is not set correctly, the
charging schedule function will not
operate properly.
When registering the charging
schedule, the following settings
can be changed.
■Select the charging mode
One of the two following
charging modes can be
selected.
“Start” or “Start at set time”
Starts charging at the set time
*1,
2
and finishes charging when
fully charged.
“Departure” or “Departure
time”
Starts charging to finish at the
set time.
*3, 4
When this setting is selected,
the air conditioning-linked func-
tion can be used.
*1: There might be a slight error in the timing when charging starts
due to the state of the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery).
*2: Charging schedule function is performed in accordance with
the clock. Before registering the
charging schedule, check and
set the clock to t he proper time.
*3: If the system de termines that
charging cannot be completed
by the set depart ure time, it will
start charging. Check the
charging schedule.
*4: If the outside temperature changes suddenly o r the state of
the power source being used is
changed during charging, the
system may not complete the
charging as estimated.
■Repeated setting
The periodic charging schedule
can be set by selecting your
desired day of the week. (If no
days are selected, charging is
only carried out once.)
Using the charging
schedule function
Charging can be carried out
at the desired time by regis-
tering the charging sched-
ule. Also, it is possible to
set the charging schedule to
one’s preferences, such as
having charging complete
by a certain departure time
or be carried out at the
same time on certain days.

to “Departure” or “Departure
time”, the vehicle air condition-
ing system ( P.422) can be set
to automatically operate
*
according to the set time.
By adjusting the cabin temperature
in advance, passengers can enjoy
a pleasant interior immediately after
entering the vehicle.
*: Operation starts approximately 20 minutes before the set depar-
ture time.
■Turning “Charge Now” on
and off
If even one charging schedule is
registered, charging does not
start until the set time, even if
the AC charging cable is con-
nected to the vehicle. To start
charging without changing the
charging schedule setting, turn
“Charge Now” on to temporarily
cancel the charging schedule
and enable charging after con-
necting the AC charging cable.
*
*: If the charging connector is removed during charging while
the charging schedule is regis-
tered and “Charge Now” is on,
“Charge Now” turns off.
■Changing “Next Event”*1, 2
It is possible to temporarily set
the time of the next charging
schedule without changing the registered repeated setting.
*3
*1: The “Next Event” refers to the
closest charging schedule from
the current time among the regis-
tered charging schedules.
Charging schedule is performed
based on the “Next Event”.
*2: “Next Event” can not be changed on the Multimedia Display.
*3: When “Next Event” is changed, the current charging schedule
will be temporarily ignored and
charging will not be carried out
until the time specified by “Next
Event”. (For example, when
“Next Event” is set for 2 days
later, even if items are registered
on the charging schedule,
charging will not be carried out
until the time specified by “Next
Event”.)

■Charging schedule
●The charging schedule cannot be
set while driving.
●A maximum of 15 charging sched-
ules 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
schedule, connect the AC
charging cable
The charging sta rt time is deter-
mined 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
indicator of the charging port
flashes ( P.98)
●Do not use an ou tlet that has a
power cut off function (including a
timer function)
Use an outlet that constantly sup-
plies electricity. For outlets where
the power is cut off due to a timer
function, etc., charging may not be
carried out according to plan if the
power is cut off during the set
time.
●The automatic ad justment of the clock by GPS is set to on.
For details regarding setting clock,
refer to the “MULTIMEDIA
OWNER’S MANUAL”.
■When the AC charging cable
remains connected to the vehi-
cle
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 reconnected
after charging co mpletes. 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
preparation”
●When the air conditioning-linked
setting is turned on, the air condi-
tioning operates until the set
departure time. Therefore, the air
conditioning will co nsume electric-
ity and charging may not complete
by the set departure time.
●If the hybrid batte ry (traction bat-
tery) is fully charged, charging will
not be carried o ut, even if the
charging schedule is set. How-
ever, 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 conditioning
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.
