Plug-in hybrid system
■ “Traction Battery Cooler”
● When the hybrid battery (traction battery) is above a certain temperature
and the power switch is turned off, a check screen is displayed on the multi-
information display that indicates whether “Traction Battery Cooler” is imple-
mented. Approximately 5 minutes after selecting “Yes” on this screen, sys-
tem operation becomes possible.
● When charging starts, “Traction Battery Cooler” only operates if the hybrid
battery (traction battery) temperature is hot.
● The charging indicator is illuminated while “Traction Battery Cooler” is on
standby or operating.
● “Traction Battery Cooler” is implemented for a maximum of approximately
30 minutes. However, when the “Departure” time is set (P. 154) and there
is not sufficient time between the current time and the time that charging will
complete, “Traction Battery Cooler” operation time may become shorter.
● When there is a small amount of remaining charge in the hybrid battery
(traction battery), even if the hybrid battery (traction battery) is hot, “Traction
Battery Cooler” may not be implemented.
● When the following operations are performed while “Traction Battery Cooler”
is operating, the hybrid battery (traction battery) cooling operation stops.
• A door is opened
• The hood is opened
• The power switch is turned to any mode other than off
• The shift position is changed to any position other than P
• The Remote Air Conditioning System is operated (P. 518)
• “Charge Now” is implemented (P. 163, 172)
• The amount of remaining charge in the hybrid battery (traction battery) is
below a certain amount
● When the power switch is turned off, a check screen is displayed on the
multi-information display that indicates whether “Traction Battery Cooler” is
implemented. This check screen can be turned on and off in the “Meter Cus-
tomize” settings on the multi-information display (P. 242). However, when
the check screen is set to “Off”, “Traction Battery Cooler” is no longer oper-
ates.
● “Traction Battery Cooler” uses the power of the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) and external power source.
• While “Traction Battery Cooler” is operating, the amount of the remaining
charge of the hybrid battery (traction battery) increases and decreases in
a certain range, and does not increase as in normal charging.
• The operation of “Traction Battery Cooler” is recognized as charging by a
charging equipment. The charging equipment that calculates the fee
according to charging time causes a charging fee.
