HV mode while on the free-
way and change to EV mode
or AUTO EV/HV mode after
leaving the freeway. (P.76)
 Turn the “A/C” switch off
when it is not needed. Doing
so can help reduce excessive
electricity and fuel consump-
tion.
In summer: When the ambient tem-
perature is high, use the recircu-
lated air mode. Doing so will help to
reduce the burden on the air condi-
tioning system and reduce electric-
ity and fuel consumption as well.
In winter: Avoid excessive and
unnecessary use o f the heater.
Usage of the heated steering wheel
(if equipped) and seat heaters are
effective. ( P.433)
 Using the Remote Air Condi-
tioning System ( P.431)
while the AC charging cable is
connected to the vehicle can
reduce electricity consump-
tion immediately after starting
off by operating air condition-
ing mainly using electricity
from an external power
source.
 When setting the charging
schedule, setting the charging
mode to “Departure” or
“Departure time” and “Climate
Prep” or “Climate preparation”
to on can reduce electricity
consumption immediately after starting off by operating
air conditioning before
charging is completed.
(
P.128)
Make sure to check the tire infla-
tion pressure frequently. If there
is improper tire inflation pres-
sure in the tires, the EV driving
range will become shorter, and
fuel consumption when in HV
mode will increase.
Also, as snow tires can cause
large amounts of friction, their
use on dry roads can lead to
increased fuel and electricity
consumption.
Carrying heavy luggage will lead
to poor fuel economy. Avoid car-
rying unnecessary luggage.
Installing a large roof rack will
also cause poor fuel economy.
Since the gasoline engine starts
up and cuts out automatically,
warming up is not necessary.

When eco air conditioning mode
is used, the air conditioning con-
trol is switched automatically to
a lower setting. (P.423)
The heated steering wheel (if
equipped) and seat heaters are
efficient heating device that
directly warm the body using
less electric power.
When used togethe r with the air
conditioning system, a low tem-
perature setting can be used to
improve electrical and fuel effi-
ciency.
■Check the tire pressure
If the tire pressure is lower than
the specified value, it will
worsen the electrical and fuel
efficiency.
A pressure level 7 psi (50 kPa, 0.5
kgf/cm
2 or bar) lower than the spec-
ified value will cause a worsening of
several percentage points.
■When driving on highways,
use the EV/HV mode selec-
tion switch to drive in HV
mode
The power consumption will
increase significantly if the vehi-
cle is driven in EV mode on
highways.
■Do not load unnecessary
objects in the vehicle
Driving with objects weighing
220 lb. (100 kg) in the vehicle
will worsen the electrical and
fuel efficiency by approximately
3%. Air resistance also greatly
affects electrical and fuel effi-
ciency. Remove any exterior
accessories such as a roof lug-
gage carrier when they are not
being used.
The running resistance of snow
tires is high and they will worsen
electrical and fuel efficiency.
Replace them with standard
tires as soon as they are no lon-
ger needed.
■Know your vehicle’s electri-
cal and fuel efficiency
If you know your vehicle’s daily
electrical and fuel efficiency, you
will understand the benefits of
Eco drive.
Use the Power Consump-
tion/Fuel Economy, ECO Accel-
erator Guidance/“Eco Score”
and other data displayed on the
multi-information display.
The following indicate that
charging has been carried out
properly.
 The charging indicator of the
charging port turns off
 “Charging Complete” is dis-
played on the multi-informa-
tion display when a door is
opened with the power switch
off ( P.117)

1502-2. Charging
●When the remaining charge of the
hybrid battery (traction battery)
reaches the lower limit, the air
conditioning system automatically
turns off.
In this situation, the air condition-
ing system cannot be used until
the remaining charge of the hybrid
battery (traction battery)
increases. Turn the power switch
off and use “My Room Mode” after
the remaining charge of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is
restored.
●When the outside temperature is
low, the heater output may be lim-
ited due to the air conditioning
system operation being restricted.
●Warning lights and indicators such
as electric power steering system
warning light (ye llow) and mal-
function indicator lamp may turn
on, but this is not a malfunction.
Also, when the headlight switch is
in the AUTO position and the sur-
rounding area is dark, the head-
lights are turned on. ( P.321)
■When a charging schedule is
registered
When “My Room Mode” starts while
the charging schedule is on
standby, charging schedules are
ignored and charging starts.
■When “My Room Mode” is used
while the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) is fully charged
When the power switch is turned on
while the hybrid battery (traction
battery) is fully charged and the
charging connector that supplies
power is connected, “Charging Port
Lid is Open” is displayed on the
multi-information display. In this
case, press on the meter control
switches to display the setting
screen of “My Room Mode”, and
then select “My Room Mode”.
When “My Room Mode” is used while the hybrid battery (traction
battery) is fully charged, the electric
power of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) may be consumed. In this
case, charging may be performed
again.
■When a message related to “My
Room Mode” is displayed
When a message is displayed on
the multi-informat ion display while
using or attempting to start “My
Room Mode”, take the following cor-
rection procedures.
●“Traction battery is too low for “My
Room Mode””
There is insufficient remaining
charge in the hybrid battery (traction
battery) for starting “My Room
Mode”.
Wait until the char ge of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) increases,
then start “My Room Mode”.
●““My Room Mode” has stopped
due to low traction battery”
The remaining char ge in the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is insuffi-
cient.
Stop using “My Room Mode” and
charge the hybrid battery (traction
battery).
●““My Room Mode” will stop when
traction battery is too low Reduce
power usage to continue using
“My Room Mode””
The power consumption inside the
vehicle is greater than the power
being charged to the hybrid battery
(traction battery), and the remaining
charge of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) is low.
*
• “My Room Mode” will end unless the power consumption inside the
vehicle is improved.
• To continue using “My Room Mode”, turn off the power of sys-
tems such as the air conditioning
