●After the hybrid system has been
turned off, check that the indicator on
the power switch and the “READY”
indicator are off.
When the hybrid system 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 rotat-
ing parts such as the fan, which may
lead to fingers or clothing (especially a
tie, a scarf or a muffler) getting caught,
resulting in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant inlet cap or
coolant reservoir caps while the hybrid
system and radiator 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.

WARNING
■When attempting to free a stuck vehi-
cle
If you choose to push the vehicle back
and forth to free it, make sure the sur-
rounding area is clear to avoid striking
other vehicles, obje cts or people. The
vehicle may also lunge forward or lunge
back suddenly as it becomes free. Use
extreme caution.

with the accelerator pedal depressed.
This may lead to un expected rapid accel-
eration of the vehicle that may cause an
accident resulting in death or serious
injury.
NOTICE
■To avoid damaging the transmission
and other components
●Avoid spinning the rear wheels and
depressing the accelerator pedal
more than necessary.
●If the vehicle remains stuck even after
these procedures are performed, the
vehicle may require towing to be freed.
