batteries, and is not a malfunction. Also, even though the EV driving range becomes
shorter when the hybrid battery (traction battery) capacity reduces, vehicle performance
does not significantly become worse.
■
Starting the hybrid system in an extremely cold environment
When the hybrid battery (traction battery) is extremely cold (below approximately
-30°C [-22°F]) under the influence of the outside temperature, it may not be possible
to start the hybrid system. In this case, try to start the hybrid system again after the
temperature of the hybrid battery increases due to the outside temperature increase etc.

electric vehicle safety).
Plug-in hybrid system operation mode
The plug-in hybrid system operates in the following modes.
The multi-information display can be used to check which mode the plug-in hybrid system
is currently being driven in.
■ EV mode
When a sufficient amount of electricity is remain-
ing after charging
*2
, EV driving is performed us-
ing electricity stored in the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery).
*3
When in EV mode, the EV drive mode indicator illu-
minates.
■
AUTO EV/HV mode
Normally, the electricity stored in the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) is used for EV driving.
However, when more power is required, such as
for driving uphill or accelerating suddenly, the
gasoline engine starts and provides powerful ac-
celeration by strongly depressing the accelerator
pedal.
*2 : The amount of remaining charge can be checked on the SOC (State of Charge)
gauge.
*3 : Depending on the situation, EV driving may be canceled and both gasoline engine
and electric motor are used.
