FEATURES/OPERATIONS

Hybrid Synergy Drive System

The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer controlled gasoline engine and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power for the vehicle. To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking force generates electricity which is then sent to the traction battery. In addition, the engine shuts off when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fuel economy, reduced vehicle emissions and improved performance.

Note: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System

are shown on the multi-information display and/or navigation system screen (if equipped).

Tips for improved fuel economy

1. Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’s Manual.

2. Link trips, if possible, to reduce engine cold starts.

3. Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway.

4. When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.

5. Minimize use of the Air Conditioning.

Starting the Hybrid System

(1) Put the selector lever in “P.” (2) Depress the brake pedal, and press the “POWER” switch briefly and

firmly.

(3) The “READY” light will blink. After a few seconds, when the light

remains steady and a beep sounds, you may begin driving.

Auto lock functions

Automatic door locks can be programmed to operate in four different modes, or turned OFF.

-Doors lock when shifting from “Park.”

-Doors lock when the vehicle speed goes above approximately 12 mph.

-Doors unlock when shifting into “Park.”

-Doors unlock when the “POWER” switch is set from ON to ACC or OFF

and driver’s door is opened.

Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details.
