Emergency flashers
●
If the emergency flashers are
used for a long time while the
hybrid system is not operating
(while the "READY" indicator is
not illuminated), the 12-volt bat-
tery may discharge.
●
If any of the SRS airbags deploy
(inflate) or in the event of a strong
rear impact, the emergency flash-
ers will turn on automatically.
The emergency flashers will turn off
automatically after operating for
approximately 20 minutes. To manu-
ally turn the emergency flashers off,
press the switch twice. (The emer-
gency flashers may not turn on
automatically depending on the
force of the impact and conditions of
the collision.)
