Start the hybrid system and check the multi-information display If the display
6
does not go off:
Stop the hybrid system and
contact your Toyota dealer If the display does not go off: Have the
vehicle inspected at the
nearest Toyota dealer
caveat
ÿ To prevent accidents and injuries during inspection of the engine room
• If steam is coming out of the engine compartment, do not open the hood until the steam
stops coming out. The bonnet and engine room are hot, and there is a risk of serious injury
such as burns.
• After stopping the hybrid system, check that the READY indicator is off. When the hybrid
system is operating, the gasoline engine may automatically start, or the cooling fan may
suddenly start rotating even if the gasoline engine is stopped. If you touch or come close to
rotating parts such as belts and fans, your hands or clothes (especially neckties, scarves,
mufflers, etc.) may get caught, causing serious injury.
• If the hybrid system and radiator are hot, turn off the cooling water reservoir.
Do not open the ink cap. High temperature
steam or cooling water will blow out due to pressure, which is dangerous as it may cause
serious injury such as burns.
Note
ÿ Precautions when adding cooling water
Allow the hybrid system to cool sufficiently before inserting it slowly. If cold
coolant is added suddenly when the hybrid system is hot, the hybrid system may be damaged.
ÿ To prevent cooling system failure
Please observe the following
Do not allow foreign matter (sand, dust, etc.) to enter the cooling water.
Do not use cooling water additives
