(g) Vehicle driving characteristics
Creeping
In order to hold the vehicle properly on an
incline and for better accelerator pedal
operation at starting, your vehicle is de-
signed like a typical automatic transmis-
sion vehicle which tends to move without
depressing the accelerator pedal with the
transaxle in a position other than “P” or
“N”.
With the transaxle in a position other than
“P” or “N”, depress the brake pedal firmly
even when stopped and apply the parking
brake as required.
When moving in a compact area or during
a traffic jam, it is an effective way to
control the speed using only the brake
pedal operation without depressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
Regenerative brake
When the accelerator pedal is released or
the brake pedal is depressed, the electric
motor acts as a generator and converts
kinetic energy to electric energy to provide
deceleration and recover electric energy to
charge the hybrid battery.
At this time, the electric motor running
noise may increase.
The operation is the same as a typical
gasoline powered vehicle.
You may experience the following condi-
tion while braking. As they do not indicate
a malfunction, perform braking as usual:
D
In the “OFF” mode, pressing the
“POWER” switch once or twice will se-
lect “ACC” or “IG
−
ON” only if the brake
pedal is not depressed. In this condi-
tion, the brake pedal may move a little.
Hybrid driving
This vehicle runs in combination with the
gasoline engine and electric motor.
If the “READY” light is on, you can start
your vehicle even with the gasoline engine
stopped.
(h) If the system malfunctions
In the following conditions, there is some
problem in the system.
D
The indicator on the “P” position switch
flashes. However, this does not indi-
cate a malfunction unless a warning
message appears in the multi
−
informa-
tion display.
D
All frames of shift position indicators in
the instrument cluster flash.
D
The parking system error message ap-
pears on the multi
−
information display.
D
The instrument cluster and multi
−
infor-
mation display does not come on when
the “IG
−
ON” mode is enabled.
In these cases, stop your vehicle in a
safe and level place, apply the parking
brake securely and contact your Toyota
dealer immediately.
(i) When the 12 volt battery is discon-
nected
Before you disconnect the 12 volt battery,
confirm the shift position is “P” and apply
the parking brake completely.
After you reconnect the 12 volt battery,
shift the shift lever to “N” and confirm the
shift position is in “N” when the “IG
−
ON”
mode is enabled.
