Safety system of your vehicle
Each time you push the switch, the
temperature setting of the seat is
changed as follows :
The seat warmer defaults to the OFF
position whenever the Engine Start/
Stop button is placed in the ON posi-
tion.
Information
With the seat warmer switch in the
ON position, the heating system in the
seat turns off or on automatically
depending on the seat temperature.
Battery cooling duct
The high voltage battery cooling duct
is located on the left side of the rear
seats. The cooling duct cools down
the high voltage battery. When the high voltage battery cool-
ing duct is blocked, the high voltage
battery may be overheated. Do not
obstruct the cooling duct with any
other objects.

indicates that there may be seri-
ous engine damage or malfunc-
tion. In this case:
1. Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
2. Turn off the engine and check the oil level. If the oil level is
low, fill the engine oil to the
proper level.
3. Start the engine again. If the warning light stays on after the
engine is started, turn the

Energy flow
The hybrid system informs the driv-
ers its energy flow in various operat-

energy flow is specified in 11 modes.
For more information, refer to HEV
Energy Flow in the "Hybrid
System Overview" provided in

Engine coolant temperature
This gauge indicates the tempera-
ture of the engine coolant when the
engine is running.
When the gauge indicator gets out
of the normal range, toward the "H
(Hot)" position, it indicates over-
heating of the engine. It may dam-
age the engine.
Do not continue driving with the
overheated engine. For further

Transmission High Temperature
Under certain conditions, such asrepeated stop-and-go launches on
steep grades, sudden take off or
acceleration, or other harsh driving
conditions, the transmission clutch
temperatures will increase exces-
sively.
When the clutch temperatures are too high, the "Transmission temp is
high! Stop safely" warning mes-
sage will appear on the LCD dis-
play, a chime will sound, and the
transmission shifting may not be
smooth. If this occurs, pull over to a safe
location, stop the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the brakes
and shift the vehicle to P (Park),
and allow the transmission to cool.
If you ignore this warning, the driv- ing condition may become worse.
You may experience abrupt shifts,
frequent shifts, or jerkiness.
When the message "Trans cooled. Resume driving." appears you can
continue to drive your vehicle.
When possible, drive the vehicle smoothly.Transmission Overheated
If the vehicle continues to be driv-en and the clutch temperatures
reach the maximum temperature
limit, the "Transmission Hot! Park
with engine on" warning will be dis-
played. When this occurs the clutch
is disabled until the clutch cools to
normal temperatures.
The warning will display a time to wait for the transmission to cool.
If this occurs, pull over to a safe location, stop the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the brakes
and shift the vehicle to P (Park),
and allow the transmission to cool.

Driving your vehicle
The system changes from manual mode to automatic mode when
- the vehicle speed is lower than 3mph (5 km/h),
- you depress the accelerator pedal for more than 5 seconds,
- you pull the [+] paddle shifter for more than 1 second, or
- you move the shift lever from D (Drive) to S (Sport) or manual
shift mode (+, -) and then back to
D (Drive).
Information
If the [+] and [-] paddle shifters are
pulled at the same time, gear shift may
not occur.
Parking
Always come to a complete stop and
continue to depress the brake pedal.
Move the shift lever into the P (Park)
position, apply the parking brake,
and place the Engine Start/Stop but-
ton in the OFF position. Take the key
with you when exiting the vehicle.
Good Driving Practices
Never move the shift lever from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to any other
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
Never move the shift lever into P (Park) when the vehicle is in
motion.
Be sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before you attempt to shift
into R (Reverse) or D (Drive).
Do not move the shift lever to N (Neutral) when driving. Doing so
may result in an accident because
of a loss of engine braking and the
transmission could be damaged.
Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal. Even light, but
consistent pedal pressure can
result in the brakes overheating,
brake wear and possibly even
brake failure.
Depressing both accelerator and brake pedals at the same time can
trigger logic for engine power
reduction to assure vehicle decel-
eration. Vehicle acceleration will
resume after the brake pedal is
released.
i
When you stay in the vehicle
with the engine running, be
careful not to depress the accel-
erator pedal for a long period of
time. The engine or exhaust
system may overheat and start
a fire.
The exhaust gas and the
exhaust system are very hot.
Keep away from the exhaust
system components.
Do not stop or park over flam-
mable materials, such as dry
grass, paper or leaves. They
may ignite and cause a fire.
WARNING

5-26
Driving your vehicle
Do not apply the accelerator pedal while the parking brake is
engaged. If you depress the
accelerator pedal with the park-
ing brake engaged, warning will
sound. Damage to the parking
brake may occur.
Driving with the parking brake on can overheat the braking sys-
tem and cause premature wear
or damage to brake parts. Make
sure the parking brake is
released and the Brake Warning
Light is off before driving. Check the Parking
Brake Warning Light
by placing the Engine
Start/Stop button to
the ON position (vehi-
cle not in the ready
( ) mode).
This light will be illuminated when the
parking brake is applied with the
Engine Start/Stop button in the
START or ON position.
Before driving, be sure the parking
brake is released and the Brake
Warning Light is OFF.
If the Parking Brake Warning Light
remains on after the parking brake is
released while the vehicle is in the
ready ( ) mode, there may be a
malfunction in the brake system.
Immediate attention is necessary.
If at all possible, cease driving the
vehicle immediately. If that is not pos-
sible, use extreme caution while
operating the vehicle and only con-
tinue to drive the vehicle until you
can reach a safe location.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)NOTICE
An Anti-Lock Braking System
(ABS) or an Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) system will not
prevent accidents due to
improper or dangerous driving
maneuvers. Even though vehi-
cle control is improved during
emergency braking, always
maintain a safe distance
between you and objects ahead
of you. Vehicle speeds should
always be reduced during
extreme road conditions. The
braking distance for cars
equipped with ABS or ESC may
be longer than for those without
these systems in the following
road conditions.
