H13
If An Accident OccursWhen the hybrid vehicle shuts off
When the high voltage battery dis-
charged, 12-volt battery discharged, or
fuel tank is empty, the hybrid system may
not operate while driving. If the Hybrid
system is not operated, do the following;
1. Reduce the vehicle speed gradually.
Pull your vehicle off the road as safe
area.
2. Shift the transmission into "P" position.
3. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
4. Set the start button at OFF, and try to start the Hybrid system by applying the
brake pedal and pushing the start but-
ton.
5. If the Hybrid system will not operate, refer to "EMERGENCY STARTING" in
chapter 6.
When you try to jump start the vehicle,
confirm the fuel level and exact proce-
dure of jump start. For details, see the
"EMERGENCY STARING" in chapter 6.
If the fuel level is low, do not try to drive
the vehicle on battery power. The high
voltage battery may be discharged and
the Hybrid system will turn off.
WARNING
After parking the vehicle, shift the transmission into "P" position.
Turn off the hybrid system. Push
the button again to turn off.
For your safety, do not touch high voltage cables, connectors and
package modules.
Exposed cables or wires maybe visible inside or outside of the
vehicle. Never touch the wires or
cables, because an electrical
shock may occur causing injury or
death.
If a fire occurs, never use water to put out a fire. For safety, use an
extinguisher for electrical fires
with proper chemicals and evacu-
ate immediately.
If you need towing, refer to chapter 6.
WARNING
When you pull your vehicle off the
road as safe area, open the door
when the vehicle completely stops.
