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.

Plug-in hybrid system■Charging from an external
power source (P.121)
This is a charging method used
when charging from an AC out-
let (120 V) with the AC charging
cable equipped to the vehicle or
charging at a public charging
station.
The charging start time (or depar-
ture time) and day can be set to
carry out charging using the
charging schedule at the desired
date and time. ( P.128)
■Using the hybrid battery
(traction battery) charge
mode ( P.77)
The plug-in hybrid system can
be switched to hybrid battery
(traction battery) charge mode
to charge the hybrid battery
(traction battery) using electricity
generated by gasoline engine
operation.
The maximum charge amount in
the hybrid battery (traction battery)
charge mode is approximately 80%
of the fully charged capacity for the
charging from an external power
source.
This vehicle is equipped with
several functions that are linked
with charging.
■“My Room Mode” ( P.148)
When the AC charging cable is
connected to the vehicle, electri-
cal components such as the air
conditioning system or audio
system can be used using the
external power source
*.
*: The power of the hybrid battery
(traction 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 vehi-
cle, this function automatically
warms the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) until it reaches or
exceeds a certain temperature.
“Battery Heater” will operate
when the “Battery Heater” of the
“Charging Settings” on the multi-
information display is on.
( P.193)
■Hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) warming control
(Alaska and Canada only)
This control operates after the
AC charging cable remains con-
nected to the vehicle for 3 days
and “Battery Heater” automati-
cally stops. It automatically insu-
lates the hybrid battery (traction
battery) in extremely low tem-

This control stops 31 days
after the AC charging cable is
connected, even if it is still
connected to the vehicle.
 When this control operates,
charging schedule settings
are ignored and charging
starts.
■“Battery Cooler”
When the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) is hot and the AC
charging cable is connected to
the vehicle, this function cools
the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) 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.193)
 When the charging voltage is
120 V, the function does not
operate.
■Traction battery heating and
cooling system (“Battery
Heater” and “Battery Cooler”)
●The system operates when the
hybrid battery (traction battery) is
below or above a c ertain tempera-
ture.
●The system may operate when
charging is not being performed.
●When the charging schedule is
used ( P.128), this function will
operate according to the charging
schedule.
■“Battery Heater”
●When “Battery Heater” is operat-
ing, the charging indicator illumi-
nates.
●When the AC charging cable is
removed from the vehicle or
remains connected to the vehicle
for approximately 3 days, the sys-
tem automatically stops.
●When “Battery Heater” is operat-
ing during charging, the charging
time may be longer than normal.
●If the outside temperature
becomes high w hile “Battery
Heater” is operating, charging
may complete ear lier than the
“Departure” or “ Departure time”
time set. ( P.128)
●When the following operations are
performed while “Battery Heater”
is operating, the hybrid battery
(traction battery) heating opera-
tion stops.
• The shift lever is changed to any position other than P
• The Remote Air Conditioning Sys- tem is operated ( P.431)
●“Battery Heater” may operate
even when the hybrid battery
(traction battery) is fully charged
depending on the temperature of
the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery).
• The remaining charge of the hybrid battery (traction battery)
decreases when “Battery Heater”
operates. The charging operation
may start again to charge the
hybrid battery (traction battery).
• “Charging Stopped Due to Pulled Charging Connector” may be
shown when the charging connec-
tor is removed while recharging.
( P.158)
■“Battery Cooler”

nated while “Batter y Cooler” is on
standby or operating.
●“Battery Cooler” is implemented

tion battery).
If there are no charging facilities
at your destination, the hybrid
battery (traction battery) can be
charged using the hybrid battery
(traction battery) charge mode.
(P.77)
*
*: When using the hybrid battery
(traction battery) charge mode
while parked, make sure that no
flammable objects are near the
vehicle and the vehicle is parked
in a well-vent ilated area. ( P.78)
■After returning home
In order to drive the next time,
charge the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery).
Settings the charging schedule
allows you to charge the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) at the desired
time such as late at night or early in
the morning. Furthermore, the
charging schedule can be set to
automatically charge the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) every day or
at the same time on certain days.
(  P.128)
Information related to charging
is displayed and can be checked
