1-2. Hybrid system
If a warning light comes on, a warning message is displayed, or the 12-volt battery is
■
disconnected
The hybrid system may not start. In that case, try to start the system again. If the
"READY" indicator does not come on, contact your Lexus dealer.
Running out of fuel
■
When the vehicle has run out of fuel and the hybrid system cannot be started, refuel
the vehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel level warning light
(P. 762) go off. If there is only a small amount of fuel, the hybrid system may not be
able to start. (The minimum amount of fuel to add to make the low fuel level warning
light go out is about 3.0 gal. [11.3 L, 2.5 Imp.gal.], when the vehicle is on a level sur-
face. This value may vary when the vehicle is on a slope.)
Electromagnetic waves
■
High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles incorporate electromagnetic
●
shielding, and therefore emit approximately the same amount of electromagnetic
waves as conventional gasoline powered vehicles or home electronic appliances.
Your vehicle may cause sound interference in some third party-produced radio
●
parts.
Hybrid battery (traction battery)
■
The hybrid battery (traction battery) has a limited service life. The lifespan of the
hybrid battery (traction battery) can change in accordance with driving style and
driving conditions.
