1-1. Hybrid system Hybrid system
Your vehicle is a hybrid vehicle. It has characteristics different from conventional vehicles. Be sure you are closely familiar with the char- acteristics of your vehicle, and operate with care. The hybrid system combines a gasoline engine and an electric motor (traction motor) according to driving conditions, improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions.
Gasoline engine Electric motor (Traction motor)

1-1. Hybrid system
n When stopped/during take-off
The gasoline engine stops when the vehicle is stopped. During take-off, the electric motor (traction motor) drives the vehicle. At slow speeds or when traveling down a gentle slope, the engine is stopped and the motor is used.
n During normal driving
The gasoline engine is predominantly used. The electric motor (traction motor) charges the hybrid battery (traction battery) as necessary.
n When accelerating sharply
The power of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is added via electric motor (traction motor) to that of the gasoline engine.
n When braking (Regenerative brake)
The electric motor (traction motor) charges the hybrid battery (traction battery).
n Regenerative braking
The motor generator converts kinetic energy to electric energy when: l The accelerator pedal is released. l The brake pedal is depressed with the shift lever in “D” or “B”.
n 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: l The gasoline engine is warming up. l The hybrid battery (traction battery) is being charged. l The hybrid battery (traction battery) temperature is low or high.

OM47614U_PRIUS_U.book Page 24 Monday, January 11, 2010 11:02 AM
1-1. Hybrid system
n Charging the battery
l As the gasoline engine charges the hybrid battery (traction battery), the battery does not need to be charged from an outside source. However, if the vehicle is left parked for a long time the hybrid battery will slowly dis- charge. For this reason, be sure to drive the vehicle at least once every several months for at least 30 minutes or 10 miles (16 km). If the hybrid battery becomes fully discharged and you are unable to jump-start the vehicle with the 12 volt battery, contact your Toyota dealer. If the shift lever is in “N”, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will not be charged. When driving in heavy traffic, operate the vehicle with the shift lever in “D” to avoid discharging the battery.
n After the 12 volt battery has discharged or has been changed or
removed The gasoline engine may not stop even if the vehicle is running on the hybrid battery (traction battery). If this continues for a few days, contact your Toyota dealer.

1-1. Hybrid system
n Sounds and vibrations specific to a hybrid vehicle
There may be no engine sounds or vibration even though the vehicle is able to move. Always put the shift lever in “P” when parked. The following sounds or vibrations may occur when the hybrid system is operating, and are not a malfunction. l Motor sounds may be heard from the engine compartment. l Sounds may be heard from the hybrid battery (traction battery) behind
the rear seat when the hybrid system starts or stops.
l Sounds from the hybrid system may be heard when the back door lid is
open.
l Sounds may be heard from the transmission when the hybrid system
starts or stops.
l Engine sounds may be heard when accelerating sharply. l Sounds may be heard from the regenerative brake when you press the
brake pedal.
l Vibration may be felt when the gasoline engine starts or stops. l You may hear cooling fan sounds coming from the air intake vents behind
the rear seat.
n Maintenance, repair, recycling, and disposal
Contact your Toyota dealer regarding maintenance, repair, recycling and dis- posal. Do not dispose of the vehicle yourself.

n Hybrid battery air vent
1-1. Hybrid system
Hybrid battery air vent There is an air intake vent on the side of the rear right seatback for the purpose of cooling the hybrid battery (traction battery). If the vent becomes blocked, the hybrid battery may overheat, leading to a reduction in hybrid battery out- put.
Emergency shut off system
The emergency shut off system blocks off the high voltage current and stops the fuel pump to minimize the risk of electrocution and fuel leakage when a certain level of impact is detected by the impact sen- sor. If the emergency shut off system activates, your vehicle will not restart. To restart the hybrid system, contact your Toyota dealer.
Energy monitor/consumption screen
You can view the status of your hybrid system on the touch screen (→P. 182). The following images are examples only, and may vary slightly from actual conditions.

CAUTION
n High voltage precautions
The vehicle has high voltage DC and AC systems as well as a 12 volt sys- tem. DC and AC high voltage is very dangerous and can cause severe burns and electric shock that may result in death or serious injury. l Never touch, disassemble, remove or replace the high voltage parts,
cables and their connectors.
l The hybrid system will become hot after starting as the system uses high voltage. Be careful of both the high voltage and the high temperature, and always obey the caution labels attached to the vehicle.
l Never try to open the service plug access hole located in the luggage com- partment. The service plug is used only when the vehicle is serviced and is subject to high voltage.
n Nickel-metal hydride battery
Your vehicle contains a sealed nickel-metal hydride battery. If disposed of improperly, it is hazardous to the environment and there is a risk of severe burns and electrical shock that may result in death or serious injury.
n Emergency shut off system
l Carefully check to see if there are exposed high voltage parts or cables.
Never touch the parts or cables. (→P. 26)
l Carefully inspect the ground under the vehicle. If you find that liquid has leaked onto the ground, the fuel system may have been damaged. Leave the vehicle as soon as possible.

CAUTION
n Road accident cautions
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury. l Pull your vehicle off the road, put the shift lever in “P”, apply the parking
brake, turn the hybrid system off.
l Do not touch the high voltage parts, cables and connectors.
If electric wires are exposed inside or outside your vehicle, an electric shock may occur. Never touch exposed electric wires. If a fluid leak occurs, do not touch it as it may be strong alkaline electrolyte from the hybrid battery (traction battery). If it comes into contact with your skin or eyes, wash it off immediately with a large amount of water or if pos- sible, boric acid solution. Seek immediate medical attention. If a fire occurs in the hybrid vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as possible. Never use a fire extinguisher that is not meant for electric fires. Using even a small amount of water may be dangerous. If your vehicle needs to be towed, do so with the front wheels raised. If the wheels with the electric motor (traction motor) are on the ground when towing, the motor may continue to generate electricity. This may cause an electricity leakage leading to a fire. (→P. 413)
NOTICE
n Hybrid battery air vent
l Do not put foreign objects over the air vent. The hybrid battery (traction
battery) may overheat and be damaged.
l Clean the air vent regularly to prevent the hybrid battery (traction battery)
from overheating.
l Do not wet the air vent. It may cause a short circuit and damage the hybrid
battery (traction battery).
l Do not load a large amount of water such as an aquarium into the vehicle. If water spills over the hybrid battery (traction battery), the battery may be damaged.

Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. In the event that a mechanical key is lost, a new key can be made at your Toyota dealer using the key number plate. (→P. 447)
n When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not press any buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are carrying an electronic key in your bag etc, ensure that the buttons are not likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the elec- tronic key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the aircraft.
NOTICE
n To prevent key damage
l Do not bend the keys, subject them to storing impact, expose them to high
temperatures by placing them in direct sunlight, or get them wet.
l Do not expose the keys to electromagnetic materials or attach any mate-
rial that blocks electromagnetic waves to the key surface.
l Do not disassemble the electronic key.
