2015 Toyota Prius - Hybrid System (28 pages)
Download Hybrid System
Manual Description
Your vehicle is a hybrid vehicle, the hybrid system combines the use of a gasoline engine an, electric motor (traction motor) according driving conditions, improving fuel efficiency reducing exhaust emissions.
The gasoline engine stops* when the vehicle stopped, start off, the electric motor (traction motor) drives vehicle, slow speeds or when traveling down a gentle slope, engine, is stopped* and the electric motor (traction motor) used.
When shift position is in N, the hybrid battery (traction battery), in addition, when driving in heavy traffic, use D B, *: However, when the hybrid battery (traction battery) need be, charged or while the engine is being warmed up, gasoline.
The gasoline engine is predominantly used, (traction motor) charges the hybrid battery (traction battery), when the accelerator pedal is depressed heavily, power, the hybrid battery (traction battery) is added to that of the gasoline engine via the electric motor (traction motor).
The electric motor (traction motor) charges hybrid battery, when driving with the gasoline engine stopped, sound, which, changes in accordance with the driving speed, will be played order, to warn people nearby of the vehicle's approach.
When the vehicle speed exceeds approximately 15 mph (25 km/h), in the following situations, kinetic energy is converted electric energy, deceleration force can be obtained in conjunction with recharging, ● The accelerator pedal is released while driving with the shift position D.
● The brake pedal is depressed while driving with the shift position D, hybrid system power output and regenerative charging, conditions in which the gasoline engine may not stop, the gasoline engine starts and stops automatically.
● When the temperature of the hybrid battery (traction battery) high, ● When the heater switched, *: Depending on the circumstances, the gasoline engine may also not stop, automatically in situations other than those above.
Charging the hybrid battery (traction battery), ● As the gasoline engine charges the hybrid battery (traction battery), battery does not need to be charged from an outside source, the vehicle is left parked for a long time the hybrid battery (traction battery) will slowly discharge.
Least once every few months for at least 30 minutes or 10 miles (16 km), if the hybrid battery (traction battery) becomes fully discharged you, are unable to jump-start the vehicle with the 12-volt battery, contact your, ● If the shift position is in N, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will not be.
When driving in heavy traffic, operate the vehicle with shift position, after the 12-volt battery has discharged or has been changed, the gasoline engine may not stop even if the vehicle is running hybrid, ● During hybrid battery (traction battery) charging.
Sounds and vibrations specific hybrid vehicle, there may be no engine sounds or vibration even though vehicle able, the following sounds or vibrations may occur when hybrid system, ● The brake system operation sound heard from the front vehicle.
When the driver's door opened, ● Motor sounds may be heard engine compartment, ● Sounds may be heard from the hybrid battery (traction battery) when, ● Sounds may be heard from the transmission when gasoline engine.
Starts or stops, when driving at low speeds, during idling, ● Engine sounds may be heard when accelerating sharply, ● Sounds may be heard due to regenerative braking when brake pedal.
