Range Selection Mode

The Range Selection Mode switch

is located on the shift lever. To

enable the Range Selection feature,

move the column shift lever to the

M (Manual) position. The current

range will appear next to the M. This

is the highest attainable range with

all lower gears accessible. As an

example, when 3 (Third) gear is

selected, 1 (First) through 3 (Third)

gears are available.

Press the plus/minus buttons,

located on the steering column shift

lever, to select the desired range of

gears for current driving conditions.

See Automatic Transmission

Operation in the owner manual.

Cruise control can be used while the

vehicle is in Range Selection Mode.

See Manual Mode on page 9‑7.

Hybrid Features

High Voltage Safety

Information

This vehicle has a standard

12-volt battery and a high voltage

hybrid battery. Only a trained

service technician with the proper

knowledge and tools should inspect,

test, or replace the hybrid battery.

See your dealer if the hybrid battery

needs service.

The 12-volt battery cables, in the

engine compartment, are clearly

labeled. In emergency situations,

first responders can cut those

cables to disable the high voltage

hybrid battery system.

Fuel Economy Gauge

United States

Canada

This gauge indicates fuel efficiency.

To obtain the best fuel efficiency,

operate the vehicle so that the

indicator is in the high

efficiency band.

Modifying both braking and

acceleration behavior to keep the

indicator in the center of the gauge

will result in the best system

efficiency and fuel economy.

See Fuel Economy Gauge on

page 5‑4.

Automatic Engine Start/

Stop Feature

Start the engine as you would any

other engine. See “Starting the

Engine”in the owner manual for

more information on starting. The

hybrid system provides very quiet

engine starting. If pulling a trailer

with trailer brakes, see Trailer

Towing on page 9‑9for more

information.

Auto Stop

The vehicle has an Auto Stop

feature. After a successful engine

start, the engine may turn off and

operate in the Auto Stop mode.

Keep your foot firmly on the brake

pedal until you are ready for the

vehicle to move.

Engine OFF and AUTO STOP

modes are indicated on the

tachometer display. When the

tachometer needle indicates OFF,

the engine is not running and will

remain off until the ignition key is

placed in the START position or a

remote vehicle start is performed.

When the tachometer needle

indicates AUTO STOP, the hybrid

system is on, the engine is not

running, but may Auto Start at any

time without notice. See Tachometer

on page 5‑3for more information.

A chime will sound if the driver door

is opened while in Auto Stop as a

reminder that the ignition switch is

not in the LOCK/OFF position.

Always turn the ignition switch to

LOCK/OFF and remove the key

from the ignition switch when exiting

the vehicle.

Auto Start

The vehicle also has an Auto Start

feature. The engine will remain off

while in Auto Stop mode until

vehicle conditions require the

engine to run. The near-instant

starting of the engine from Auto

Stop mode is called Auto Start.

EV Mode

The vehicle also has an EV mode

which uses only the electric motor

to move the vehicle. With light

acceleration, the vehicle will drive in

EV mode. EV mode is unavailable

when the vehicle is out of fuel.

For more information on Auto Stop,

Auto Start, and EV Mode, see

Starting the Vehicle on page 9‑2.

1-4 In Brief

Regenerative Braking

Regenerative braking enables the

electric drive motor to operate as a

generator when coasting or braking.

Energy from the moving vehicle

recharges the hybrid battery.

The hydraulic disc brakes work with

the regenerative braking to insure

effective braking.

The braking system is computer

controlled and blends the

regenerative braking with the

conventional hydraulic disc brakes

to meet any requirements for

deceleration. Because the controller

applies the hydraulic brakes through

its high pressure accumulator, you

may occasionally hear the motor

driven pump when it recharges the

system. This is normal. In the event

of a controller problem, the brake

pedal may be harder to push and

the stopping distance may be

longer.

See Regenerative Braking on

page 9‑8.

Battery

This vehicle has a standard

12-volt battery and a high voltage

hybrid battery. When a new

standard 12-volt battery is needed,

see your dealer for one that has the

replacement number shown on the

original battery's label. Only a

trained service technician with the

proper knowledge and tools should

inspect, test, or replace the hybrid

battery. See your dealer if the hybrid

battery needs service. See Battery

on page 10‑12.

Service

Never try to do your own service on

hybrid components. You can be

injured and the vehicle can be

damaged if you try to do your own

service work. Service and repair of

these hybrid components should

only be performed by a trained

service technician with the proper

knowledge and tools. See Doing

Your Own Service Work on

page 10‑2.

Folding Rear Seat

Notice: Folding a rear seat with

the safety belts still fastened may

cause damage to the seat or the

Make sure the safety belts are not

twisted or caught in the seat

cushion.

Airbag System

Replacing Airbag System

Parts After a Crash

If an airbag inflates or the vehicle

has been in a crash, the vehicle's

sensing system may command the

automatic hybrid battery disconnect

to open. When the battery

disconnect is open, the hybrid

battery will be off and the vehicle

will not start. The airbag readiness

light and/or SERVICE HYBRID

SYSTEM warning message may

come on in the Driver Information

Center (DIC). See “Airbag

Readiness Light”in the owner

manual and Driver Information

Center (DIC) on page 5‑11 for more

information.

To operate the vehicle, the

automatic hybrid battery disconnect

must be reconnected by a qualified

service technician and sensing

system parts will need to be

replaced. Have the vehicle serviced

right away.

Installing the Cover

{CAUTION

An improperly stored cargo cover

could be thrown about the vehicle

during a collision or sudden

maneuver. Someone could be

injured. If the cover is removed,

always store it in the proper

storage location. After positioning

the cargo cover back on the

vehicle, always be sure that it is

securely reattached by properly

securing the straps and latches.

1. Position the tonneau cover onto

the top of the pickup box with

the locator tabs positioned into

the front stake pockets.

If equipped, remove the front

stake pocket covers from the

bed rail protectors. The locators

must fully seat into the stake

pocket.

2. Align the front edge of the cover

with the front edge of the bed rail

so that it is centered on each

side of the truck bed.

3. Lower the front clamp from its

storage position.

4. Tilt the clamp assembly so that

the locator is in the slot, pull

down on the assembly, and slide

the clamp under the edge of the

inner lip of the bed rail.

5. Pull the handle toward the rear

of the truck to engage the clamp.

Make sure the locator is secure

into the slot (A). If unable to

completely engage clamp, see

the tightening and loosening

procedures later in this section.

6. The clamp should be securely

engaged. Shake the handle

assembly to make sure the

handle does not move.

7. There are locking features on

the front clamps only. With the

handle in the clamped position,

push the locking tab to engage

the lock.
