4-2. Driving procedures
■
When the ambient temperature is low, such as during winter driving con-
ditions
●
When starting the hybrid system, the flashing time of the "READY" indicator
may be long. Leave the vehicle as it is until the "READY" indicator is steady
on, as steady means the vehicle is able to move.
●
When the hybrid battery (traction battery) is extremely cold (below approxi-
mately -22°F [-30°C]) under the influence of the outside temperature, it may
not be possible to start the hybrid system. In this case, try to start the hybrid
system again after the temperature of the hybrid battery increases due to
the outside temperature increase etc.
