Trailer Brakes
If a trailer is being towed that has
trailer brakes and the trailer brakes
are manually applied while driving
slower than 40 km/h (25 mph), the
vehicle may go into Auto Stop mode
even if the brakes are not being
pressed. Using the trailer brake
system manually can make the
hybrid vehicle perform as if the
brake pedal in the vehicle is
being pressed. The trailer brake
operation check will still work.
If the trailer brakes are manually
applied for an extended period of
time, the SERVICE BRAKE
SYSTEM message comes on in
the Driver Information Center.
The message goes off after the
trailer brakes have been released.
No other action is necessary.
For more information, see Towing
Equipment in the owner manual.
