Event data recorder
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main pur- pose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as: • How various systems in your vehicle were operating; • Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fas-
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake
tened;
pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling. These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a nontrivial crash situa- tion occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving condi- tions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation. To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

CAUTION
■General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ- ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi- cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in death or serious injury. Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents. Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that dis- tracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you, your occupants or others.
■General precaution regarding children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key. Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with the windows or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

CAUTION
■Hybrid battery (traction battery)
Never resell, hand over or modify the hybrid battery (traction battery). To pre- vent accidents, hybrid batteries (traction batteries) that have been removed from a disposed vehicle are collected through Toyota dealers. Do not dis- pose of the battery yourself. Unless the battery is properly collected, the following may occur, resulting in death or serious injury: • The hybrid battery (traction battery) may be illegally disposed of or dumped, and someone may touch a high voltage part, resulting in an electric shock.
• The hybrid battery (traction battery) is intended to be used exclusively with your hybrid vehicle. If the hybrid battery (traction battery) is used outside of your vehicle or modified in any way, accidents such as electric shock, heat generation, smoke generation, an explosion and electrolyte leakage may occur.
When reselling or handing over your vehicle, the possibility of an accident is extremely high because the person receiving the vehicle may not be aware of these dangers.
■Disposal of the hybrid battery (traction battery)
If your vehicle is disposed of without the hybrid battery (traction battery) hav- ing been removed, there is a danger of serious electric shock if high voltage parts, cables and their connectors are touched. In the event that your vehicle must be disposed of, the hybrid battery (traction battery) must be disposed of by your Toyota dealer or a qualified service shop. If the hybrid battery (traction battery) is not disposed of properly, it may cause electric shock that can result in death or serious injury.

1-1. Plug-in hybrid system Plug-in hybrid system features
The plug-in hybrid system is a system that has the features of both electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles.
● Electricity received by charging from an external power source can be used, and the vehicle can also be driven as an electric vehicle by driving over certain distances* using only the electric motor (traction motor).
● If the amount of electricity remaining in the hybrid battery (traction battery) becomes low, the vehicle is automatically controlled in such a way that it can be driven as a hybrid vehi- cle through the joint use of the gasoline engine.
*: The driving range will vary in accordance with conditions such as vehi- cle speed, the amount of charge remaining in the hybrid battery (trac- tion battery) and the usage of the air conditioning system. The gasoline engine may also be used simultaneously in accordance with driving conditions.

■ When in EV mode
Driving using only the electric motor (traction motor) is possible (excluding certain situations, such as when accelerating sud- denly), but if the amount of charge remaining in the hybrid bat- tery (traction battery) becomes low, EV mode will be canceled. In order to prolong EV mode driving, observe the following: ● Check the EV driving range using the energy monitor or
Hybrid System Indicator.
● Avoid sudden acceleration and sudden deceleration, and be
sure to drive smoothly. If you repeatedly accelerate, the hybrid battery (traction bat- tery) charge will deplete quickly. Also, the gasoline engine will start, depending on acceleration or the vehicle speed.
● Restrain your speed as much as possible. The EV driving
range will reduce considerably at high speeds.
33
PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47818U_(U)
1-1. Plug-in hybrid system
■ When in HV mode
The vehicle can be used in the same way as a standard hybrid vehicle. In HV mode, controls are primarily carried out as follows in accordance with the driving conditions. ● The gasoline engine stops when the vehicle is stopped. ● During start off, the electric motor (traction motor) drives the
vehicle.
● During normal driving, the gasoline engine and electric motor (traction motor) are controlled effectively, and the vehicle is driven with optimum fuel efficiency. Also, when necessary, the electric motor (traction motor) operates as an electrical gener- ator to charge the hybrid battery (traction battery).
● When the accelerator pedal is depressed heavily, drive force from both the gasoline engine and the electric motor (traction motor) is used to accelerate.
■ When braking (regenerative braking)
The electric motor (traction motor) charges the hybrid battery (traction battery). The EV driving range can be extended by actively using this regenerative braking to store electricity in the hybrid battery (traction battery). Moreover, as fuel consumption is also reduced when in HV mode, the regenerative braking system can be used effectively.

Plug-in hybrid system control
The plug-in hybrid system features both EV mode and HV mode, which are switched automatically. When a sufficient amount of elec- tricity is remaining in the hybrid battery (traction battery) the vehicle can be driven as an electric vehicle in EV mode; and when only a lit- tle electricity is remaining in the hybrid battery (traction battery), HV mode is automatically selected and the vehicle can be used in the same manner as a hybrid vehicle. The modes can also be switched using the EV/HV mode selection switch. (→P. 37) ■ EV mode
Using the electricity stored in the hybrid battery (traction battery), the vehicle can be driven using only the electric motor (traction motor). The gasoline engine may also be used temporarily at the same time the speed and load of the vehicle, and with heater usage.
in accordance with

1-1. Plug-in hybrid system
■ HV mode
If only a little electricity is remain- ing in the hybrid battery (traction battery) and the vehicle cannot be driven using the electric motor (traction motor) only, the electric motor (traction motor) and the gasoline engine will be used together. The Hybrid System Indicator can be used to check which mode the plug-in hybrid system is cur- rently being driven in.
The EV drive mode indicator ( is in EV mode, and will turn off if HV mode is switched to.
) will illuminate when your vehicle

EV/HV mode selection switch
You can manually switch between EV mode and HV mode when you want to conserve battery power in preparation for EV driving in city areas. Switching to HV mode when driving on a highway or when driving uphill is recommended in order to conserve battery power.* (→P. 67) *: The EV driving range may reduce even after switching to HV mode.
Press the switch
EV mode and HV mode will be switched between with each press. If there is not enough charge remaining in the hybrid battery (traction battery) to allow EV driv- ing, EV mode will not be select- able.
37
PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47818U_(U)
1-1. Plug-in hybrid system
Charging (→P. 80)
In order to drive in EV mode, charge the hybrid battery (trac- tion battery) from an external power source before using your vehicle.
If there is not enough charge remaining in the hybrid battery (traction battery), the EV driving range will become shorter.
Vehicle proximity notification system
When driving with the gasoline engine stopped, a sound, which changes in accordance with the driving speed, will be played in order to warn people nearby of the vehicle’s approach. The sound will stop when the vehicle speed exceeds approximately 15 mph (25 km/h).

■Regenerative braking
In the following situations, kinetic energy is converted to electric energy and deceleration force can be obtained in conjunction with the recharging of the hybrid battery (traction battery). ●The accelerator pedal is released while driving with the shift position in D
or B.
●The brake pedal is depressed while driving with the shift position in D or
B.
■EV driving range
●The EV driving range is displayed on the energy monitor and the Hybrid
System Indicator. (→P. 58, 268)
●The EV driving range changes in accordance with the charge status of
the hybrid battery (traction battery), the speed of the vehicle, etc.
■After EV mode has switched to HV mode due to low hybrid battery
(traction battery) charge If the hybrid battery (traction battery) is regenerated by driving continuously down a long slope, the EV driving range will be displayed on the multi-infor- mation display and EV mode will be automatically switched to. If EV mode is not switched to even though EV driving range is being dis- played, EV mode can be switched to by pressing the EV/HV mode selection switch.
39
PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47818U_(U)
1-1. Plug-in hybrid system
■Refilling fuel
Plug-in hybrid vehicles can be driven using electricity charged from an exter- nal power source, however the gasoline engine that is provided on board as an auxiliary power source and as a power source for driving in HV mode needs to be filled with fuel. Check the fuel amount and refill immediately when the fuel level becomes low. (→P. 174)
■Gasoline engine operation in EV mode
Even if there is a sufficient amount of electricity remaining in the hybrid bat- tery (traction battery) and EV driving range (→P. 58, 268) is being displayed, the gasoline engine may operate automatically in the following circum- stances (EV driving will be returned to automatically after EV driving becomes possible again): ●When the heater etc. is in use. ●When the temperature of the hybrid system is high.
The vehicle has been left in the sun, driven on a hill, driven at high speeds, etc.
●When the temperature of the hybrid system is low.
The vehicle has been left in temperatures lower than about 32 °F (0 °C) for a long period of time etc.
●When power is needed temporarily, for example when accelerating sud-
denly.
●When vehicle speed is more than approximately 62 mph (100 km/h). ●When the accelerator pedal is depressed firmly or the vehicle is on a hill
etc.
●When the outside temperature is low (less than 14 °F [-10 °C]) The gasoline engine may also operate in circumstances other than those listed above, depending on conditions.

■When continually using EV mode only
After driving for approximately 124 miles (200 km) with the gasoline engine off, the gasoline engine may start for a short amount of time in order to pro- tect the system.
■Conditions in which the gasoline engine may not stop
The gasoline engine starts and stops automatically. However, it may not stop automatically in the following conditions*: ●During gasoline engine warm-up ●When the temperature of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is high or
low
●During hybrid battery (traction battery) charging ●When the heater is switched on *: Depending on the circumstances, the gasoline engine may also not stop
automatically in situations other than those above.
■If the vehicle is not used for a long time
The 12-volt battery may discharge. In this event, charge the 12-volt battery. (→P. 594) In order to prevent the hybrid battery (traction battery) from becoming extremely low in charge, start the hybrid system at least once every 2 or 3
months, and turn the “POWER” switch off after the gasoline engine has stopped automatically. (If the gasoline engine does not start up even after approximately 10 seconds have passed since the “READY” indicator came on, the “POWER” switch can be turned to OFF without any further action.)41

■Sounds and vibrations specific to a hybrid vehicle
There may be no engine sounds or vibration even though the vehicle is able to move. For safety, apply the parking brake and make sure to shift the shift position to P when parked. The following sounds or vibrations may occur when the hybrid system is operating, and are not a malfunction. ●The brake system operation sound heard from the front of the vehicle
when the driver’s door is opened.
●Motor sounds may be heard from the engine compartment. ●Sounds may be heard from the hybrid battery (traction battery) behind
the rear seat when the hybrid system starts or stops.
●Sounds may be heard from the transmission when the gasoline engine
starts or stops, when driving at low speeds, or during idling.
●Engine sounds may be heard when accelerating sharply. ●Sounds may be heard due to regenerative braking when you press the
brake pedal or release the accelerator pedal.
●Vibration may be felt when the gasoline engine starts or stops. ●Cooling fan sounds may be heard from the air intake vent. (→P. 45) ●The operation sound of the air conditioning system (air conditioning com-
pressor, blower motor).
