Charging [09/2023 - ]: Procedure
- INSPECT AUXILIARY BATTERY VOLTAGE
- Measure the auxiliary battery voltage.
Standard Voltage
Approximately 11 V or more
HINT:
- The horn should sound clearly.
- If the voltage is 10 V or less, either charge the auxiliary battery (charging usually takes about 1 hour), or replace it with an auxiliary battery that is already charged.
- Measure the auxiliary battery voltage.
- PREPARATION FOR HV BATTERY CHARGING WARNING:
- The hybrid system has high-voltage circuits. Accidents, such as electric shock, or electric leaks may result if the hybrid system is not operated in a correct manner. Make sure to follow the correct procedure.
Refer to PRECAUTION [09/2023 - ]
- Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
HINT:
- Removing the service plug grip interrupts the high voltage circuit.
- High voltage wiring connectors are orange.
- Check the charge level of the HV battery.
- If the hybrid system fails to start and "Traction Battery Needs to be Protected Shift into P to Restart" is displayed on the multi-information display, the HV battery may be discharged.
- Confirm if the engine starts. If the engine starts, leave it idling with the shift lever in P until the engine stops (self charge has completed).
If the engine cannot start, charge the HV battery.
HINT:
- Before performing external charging, always use the GTS to perform troubleshooting.
- Charging time using the THS charger is 10 minutes per charge cycle. The charging time when using a THS charger is a short charging time (when the HV battery temperature is 25°C (77°F), 10 minutes may be sufficient, if the HV battery temperature is 0°C (32°F), then three 10 minute charge cycles may be required) for putting the engine in a condition where it can be started (the system can enter the READY-on state). (The THS charger will automatically stop 10 minutes after charging starts.)
- Remove the service plug grip.
Refer to REMOVAL [09/2023 - ]

"SMRG Status"1 OFF OFF OFF OFF 2 OFF → ON OFF OFF → ON OFF → ON 3 ON OFF → ON ON ON - Make sure that the EMERGENCY STOP switch is in the reset condition (the switch is turned clockwise and released).
- Make sure that the BREAKER is in the ON position.
- Turn the THS charger MAIN switch on.
HINT:
The MAIN indicator will illuminate (green).
- Press the START switch.
HINT:
- When the START switch is turned on, the INITIAL CHECK indicator illuminates and an initial check starts. When the initial check completes successfully, the INITIAL CHECK indicator turns off, the CHARGING indicator illuminates and charging will start at the same time.
- While the INITIAL CHECK indicator is illuminated, the insulation, 400 V output, emergency stop switch, connector connections and ground connection are inspected.
- Repeat the charge cycle 3 times. When the last cycle has finished, turn the THS charger MAIN switch off.
HINT:
- Charging time using the THS charger is 10 minutes per charge cycle. The charging time when using a THS charger is a short charging time (when the battery temperature is 25°C (77°F), 10 minutes may be sufficient, if the battery temperature is 0°C (32°F), then three 10 minute charge cycles may be required) for putting the engine in a condition where it can be started (the system can enter the READY-on state). (The THS charger will automatically stop 10 minutes after charging starts.)
- There is very little chance of overcharging the HV battery during the second or third charging cycle. The SOC will not likely increase beyond the upper limit because it was low enough to prevent the engine from starting. Even if the SOC was to increase enough to exceed the limit, the hybrid vehicle control ECU will stop the Active Test to prevent overcharging.
