Hybrid System

■ Hybrid System Indicator

Charge areaShows regenerative charging.

Hybrid Eco areaShows that gasoline engine power isnot being used very often.The gasoline engine will automaticallystop and restart under various condi-tions.

Eco areaShows that the vehicle is being drivenin an Eco-friendly manner.

Power areaShows that an Eco-friendly drivingrange is being exceeded (during fullpower driving etc.)

● Hybrid System Indicator is displayed when the driving mode is other than the sportmode.

● By keeping the indicator needle within Eco area, more Eco-friendly driving can beachieved.

● Charge area indicates regeneration* status. Regenerated energy will be used to chargethe battery.

*: When used in this manual, “regeneration” refers to the conversion of energy created bythe movement of the vehicle into electrical energy.

Your vehicle is a hybrid vehicle. It has characteristics different from conventional vehicles.Be sure you are closely familiar with the characteristics of your vehicle, and operate withcare.The hybrid system combines the use of a gasoline engine and an electric motor (tractionmotor) according to driving conditions, improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaustemissions.For details, refer to the “Owner’s Manual”.

■Charging the hybrid battery (traction battery)● If the shift lever is in N, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will not be charged. Always

put the shift lever in P when the vehicle is stopped. When driving in heavy traffic, operatethe vehicle with the shift lever in D or S to avoid discharging the battery.

● To help prevent the 12-volt battery from becoming discharged, drive the vehicle at leastonce a month, and operate the accessories only when the “READY” indicator is on.When parking the vehicle, make sure the doors and trunk are closed and all lights areturned off.

■Regenerative brakingIn the following situations, kinetic energy is converted to electric energy and decelerationforce can be obtained in conjunction with the recharging of the hybrid battery (traction bat-tery).● The accelerator pedal is released while driving with the shift position in D or S.● The brake pedal is depressed while driving with the shift position in D or S.

■Sounds and vibrations specific to a hybrid vehicleThere may be no engine sounds or vibration even though the vehicle is able to move. Forsafety, apply the parking brake and make sure to shift the shift lever to P when parked.The following sounds or vibrations may occur when the hybrid system is operating and arenot a malfunction:● Motor sounds may be heard from the engine compartment.● Sounds may be heard from the hybrid battery (traction battery) behind the rear seats

when the hybrid system starts or stops.● Sounds from the hybrid system may be heard when the trunk lid is open.● Sounds may be heard from the hybrid transmission when the hybrid system starts or

stops.● Engine sounds may be heard when accelerating sharply.● Sounds may be heard due to regenerative braking when the accelerator pedal is

released or the brake pedal is depressed.● Vibration may be felt or sounds may be heard when the gasoline engine starts or stops.● Cooling fan sounds may be heard from the air intake vents on the package tray.

■Running out of fuelWhen the vehicle has run out of fuel and the hybrid system cannot be started, refuel thevehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel level warning light go off. If there isonly a small amount of fuel, the hybrid system may not be able to start. (The minimumamount of fuel to add to make the low fuel level warning light go out is about 3.4 gal. [13 L,2.8 Imp. gal.], when the vehicle is on a level surface. This value may vary when the vehicle ison a slope.)

● How to display on the multi-information displayPress the “DISP” button on the steering wheel several times to select the energy monitordisplay.

You can view the status of your hybrid system on the multi-information display and theRemote Touch screen.

The flow of energy is displayed on the Remote Touch screen.Red: gasoline energy Amber: electrical energy Light blue: energy recovery

A light blue arrow appears when regenerative brakingoccurs.

The flow of energy is indicated by the movement of the arrowson the multi-information display.

The displayed energy flow, battery level, etc. will change in response to the current drivingconditions.

■Linked mirror function when reversing

When the mirror select switch is in the “L” or “R” position, the outside rear view mirrors willautomatically angle downwards when the vehicle is reversing in order to give a better viewof the ground. To disable this function, move the mirror select switch to the neutral position (between “L”and “R”).

■Adjusting the mirror angle when the vehicle is reversingWith the shift lever in R, adjust the mirror angle at a desired position. The adjusted angle will be memorized and the mirror will automatically tilt to the memorizedangle whenever the shift lever is shifted to R from next time.

The memorized downward tilt position of the mirror is linked to the normal position(angle adjusted with the shift lever in other than R). Therefore, if the normal position ischanged after adjustment, the tilt position will also change. When the normal position is changed, readjust the angle in reversing.
