“POWER” switch is set at ON.
The light remains on when the
“READY” light is on.

hicle immediately. For details, see “(a)

seconds after the hybrid system is
started. It is normal if the light goes off
after a while.

sist function will fail but also the ve-
hicle will become extremely unstable
during braking.
