The functions of the air conditioning,
etc. may be partially limited in order
to reduce the power consumption of
the 12-volt battery.
If your vehicle has to
be stopped in an emer-
gency
Only in an emergency, such
as if it becomes impossible
to stop the vehicle in the
normal way, stop the vehi-
cle using the following pro-
cedure:
Stopping the vehicle
WARNING
■If the hybrid system has to be
turned off while driving
Turning the hybrid system off
while driving will not cause a loss
of steering or braking control.
However, power assist for the
steering wheel may be lost mak-
ing it difficult to steer smoothly
before stopping the vehicle
depending on the remaining
charge in the 12-volt battery or
usage conditions. Decelerate as
much as possible before turning
off the hybrid system.

unfastened, the buzzer sounds intermittently for a certain peri od of time,
after the seat belt is fastened and unfastened and the vehicle reaches a
certain speed.
■Warning buzzer
In some cases, the buzzer may not
be heard because of noisy place or
an audio sound.
■Front passenger detection sen-
sor, seat belt reminder and
warning buzzer
●If luggage is placed on the front
passenger seat, the front passen-
ger detection sensor may cause
the warning light to flash and the
warning buzzer to sound even if a
passenger is not sitting in the
seat.
●If a cushion is placed on the seat,
the sensor may n ot detect a pas-
senger, and the warning light may
not operate properly.
■SRS warning light
This warning light system monitors
the airbag sensor assembly, front
impact sensors, side impact sensors
(front door), side impact sensors
(front), side impact sensors (rear),
driver’s seat position sensor, front

ing the fan sound and air flow. If it is
difficult to check these, adjust the
temperature control switch to “LO”
and turn the “A/C” switch ON and
OFF. After this, turn the air condi-
tioning system on and off repeat-
edly. (The fan may not operate in
