Do not depress the accelerator pedal while starting the hybrid system under any circumstances. Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury. n Stopping the hybrid system in an emergency If you want to stop the hybrid system in an emergency while driving the vehicle, push and hold the "POWER" switch for more than 3 seconds. However, do not touch the "POWER" switch while driving except in an emergency. Turning the hybrid system off while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking control, but the power assist to these systems will be lost. This will make it more difficult to steer and brake, so you should pull over and stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so. NOTICE n To prevent the 12-volt battery from being discharged Do not leave the "POWER" switch in ACCESSORY or ON mode for long periods without the hybrid system on. n When starting the hybrid system l Do not race a cold engine. l If the hybrid system becomes difficult to start, have the hybrid system checked immediately. 138
