If the red high coolant temperature warn-
ing light comes on, your hybrid system is
too hot. If your vehicle overheats, stop
your vehicle and allow the hybrid system
to cool.
Your vehicle may overheat during severe
operating conditions, such as:
D
Driving up a long hill on a hot day.
D
Reducing speed or stopping after high
speed driving.
NOTICE
z Do not remove the thermostat in
the cooling system as this may
cause the hybrid system to over-
heat. The thermostat is designed to
control the flow of coolant to keep
the temperature of the hybrid sys-
tem within the specified operating
range.
z Do not continue driving with an
overheated hybrid system. See "If
your vehicle overheats" on page
174 in Section 5.

Odometer and two trip
meters46.
24p004d
This meter displays the odometer and
two trip meters.
1. Odometer—Shows the total
the vehicle has been driven.
2. Two trip meters—Show two different
distances independently driven since
the last time each trip meter was set
to zero.
You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to
measure the distance on each trip. All
trip meter data is cancelled if the elec-
trical power source is disconnected.
3. Trip meter reset button—Resets the
two trip meters to zero, and also
change the meter display.
To change the meter display, quickly
push and release the button. The meter
display changes in the order from the
odometer to trip meter A to trip meter
B, then back to the odometer each
time you push.
To reset the trip meter A to zero, dis-
play the meter A reading, then push
and hold the button until the meter is
set to zero. The same process can be
applied for resetting the trip meter B.
