When trouble arises
■Stopping the hybrid system
Set the parking brake, shift the shift position to P and press the power switch

■ Changing power switch modes
Release the brake pedal and press the power switch in step above. The
hybrid system does not start and modes will be changed each time the switch
is pressed. ( P. 241)

●Make sure that the smart key system has not been deactivated in the cus-
tomization setting. If it is off, turn the function on.
