WARNING■
To prevent an accident or injury when
inspecting under the hood of your
vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious
injury such as burns.
●
If steam is seen coming from under the
hood, do not open the hood until the
steam has subsided. The engine com-
partment may be very hot. ●
After the hybrid system has been
turned off, check that the “READY”
indicator is off. When the hybrid sys-
tem is operating, the gasoline engine
may automatically start, or the cooling
fan may suddenly operate even if the
gasoline engine stops. Do not touch or
approach rotating parts such as the
fan, which may lead to fingers or cloth-
ing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muf-
fler) getting caught, resulting in serious
injury. ●
Do not loosen the coolant reservoir
cap while the hybrid system and radia-
tor are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant
could spray out.
NOTICE■
When adding engine/power control
unit coolant
Add coolant slowly after the hybrid sys-
tem has cooled down sufficiently. Adding
cool coolant to a hot hybrid system too
quickly can cause dama ge to the hybrid
system. ■
To prevent damage to the cooling sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions: ●
Avoid contaminating the coolant with
foreign matter (such as sand or dust
etc.).
●
Do not use any coolant additive.

a garage, exhaust gases including harm-
ful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect
and enter the vehicle. This may lead to
death or a serious health hazard.
