Charging System Indicator
This indicator should come
on when the ignition switch
is in the ON (II) position, and go out
after the engine starts. If the
charging system indicator comes on
brightly when the engine is running,
the battery is not being charged.
Immediately turn off all electrical
accessories. Try not to use other
electrically operated controls such as
the power windows. Keep the engine
running; starting the engine will
discharge the battery rapidly.
Go to a dealer or a service station
where you can get technical
assistance.

Taking Care of the Unexpected
If the Auto Idle Stop is active for an
extended period, the charging
system indicator may come on. If it
happens, start the engine.
The charging system indicator may
also come on if the Integrated Motor
Assist (IMA) battery charge drops
below a desired level and the engine
starts to recharge the battery.
This indicator may blink after you
start the vehicle in the morning
when the temperature is below
°C ( 20°F). It will stop blinking
−
when the IMA battery warms up.
