Conditions affecting VGRS operations
In the following situations, the center position of the steering wheel may change.
However, the position will return to normal after the conditions are improved.
●
When the steering wheel has been operated quickly or operated for an
extended period of time while the vehicle is stopped or is moving very slowly
●
When the steering wheel has been held fully to the left or right
●
When the 12-volt battery is low or the voltage temporarily drops
●
After the hybrid system is started at lower than -22±F (-30±C)
■
Reduced effectiveness of the EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS system is reduced to prevent the system from over-
heating when there is frequent steering input over an extended period of time. The
steering wheel may feel heavy as a result. Should this occur, refrain from excessive
steering input or stop the vehicle and turn the hybrid system off. The system should
return to normal within 10 minutes.
■
If the slip indicator comes on
It may indicate a malfunction in the VSC, TRAC and hill start assist control function.
