INFORMATION
■
Emergency flashers
● If the emergency flashers are used for a long time with the hybrid system stopped
(while the "READY" indicator is not illuminated), the 12-volt battery may become
discharged.
● If any of the SRS airbags deploy (inflate) or in the event of a strong rear impact, the
emergency flashers will turn on automatically.
The emergency flashers will turn off automatically after operating for approximately
20 minutes. To manually turn the emergency flashers off, press the switch twice. (The
emergency flashers may not turn on automatically depending on the force of the
impact and conditions of the collision.)
Stopping the vehicle in an emergency
Stop the vehicle using the following procedure only in an emergency, such as if it
becomes impossible to stop the vehicle in the normal way:

Decelerate as much as possible before stopping the hybrid system.
1 Steadily step on the brake pedal with both feet and firmly depress it.
Do not pump the brake pedal repeatedly as this will increase the effort required to slow
the vehicle.
