5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
If your vehicle has to be stopped in an emergency
CAUTION
■If the EV system has to be turned off while driving
Power assist for the brakes and steering wheel will be lost, making the brake
pedal harder to depress and the steering wheel heavier to turn. Decelerate
as much as possible before turning off the EV system.
Only in an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the
vehicle in the normal way, stop the vehicle using the following pro-
cedure:
Steadily step on the brake pedal with both feet and firmly
depress it.
Do not pump the brake pedal repeatedly as this will increase the
effort required to slow the vehicle.
Shift the shift position to N.
If the shift position is changed to N After slowing down, stop the vehi cle in a safe place by the
road.
Stop the EV system.
If the shift position cannot be changed to N Keep depressing the brake pedal with both feet to reduce
vehicle speed as much as possible.
To stop the EV system, press
and hold the “POWER” switch
for 2 consecutive seconds or
more, or press it briefly 3
times or more in succession.
