H11
When the hybrid system is turned on, the
engine may run or not. In this situation,
you may feel a vibration. This does not
indicate a malfunction. If the "READY"

starts. Even if the engine is off, you can
operate the vehicle as long as the
"READY" symbol is illuminated.Virtual Engine Sound System
(VESS)
The Virtual Engine Sound System gener-
ates engine sound for pedestrians to
hear vehicle sound because there is lim-
ited sound while motor power is used at
speeds below 18 mph.
WARNING
When you start the hybrid systemin the "P" transmission position,
the "READY" symbol is illuminat-
ed in the cluster. The driver can
drive the vehicle even if the

When you leave the vehicle, you should turn off the hybrid system
or shift into the "P" position. If
you depress the accelerator pedal
by mistake and the vehicle is not
in the "P" position, the vehicle will
move abruptly. This may result in
serious injury or death.
