CAUTION
■
To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
●
If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until the
steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot, causing serious
injuries such as burns.
●
After the hybrid system has been turned off, check that the indicator on the
“POWER” switch and the “READY” indicator are off.
When the hybrid system is operating, the gasoline engine may automatically
start, or the cooling fans may suddenly operate even if the gasoline engine stops.
Do not touch or approach rotating parts such as the fans, which may lead to fin-
gers or clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) getting caught, resulting in
serious injury.
●
Do not loosen the radiator cap while the hybrid system and radiator are hot.
Serious injuries, such as burns, may result from hot coolant and steam released
under pressure.
