What to do in an emergency
EMERGENCY STARTING
Before Jump Starting
(For Hybrid)
Over discharge of 12V battery
- Press the reconnection
(“12V Batt Reset”) switch (1) :
This car has a reconnection switch
which can reset the over discharged
12V battery and enable getting the
car started without jump-start.
• Press the “12V Batt Reset” switch
(1) located on the lower left dash.
• Immediately start car by stepping
on the brake pedal and pressing
the Start switch within few seconds.
• To charge 12V battery, keep driving
or idling the car more than 30 min-
utes.
If you do not start the vehicle imme-
diately after pressing the “12V Batt
Reset” switch (1), the power of 12V
battery is automatically disconnected
after few seconds to save the 12V
battery from additional discharge. If
the 12V battery is disconnected prior
to starting the vehicle, press “12V
Batt Reset” switch (1) again and then
immediately start the car as
explained above.
Repeated use of the “12V Batt
Reset” switch (1) without a sufficient
engine ON cycle (30 Min+) may
cause over discharge of the 12V bat-
tery, which will prevent car starting. If
the 12V battery is over discharged to
a point that the reset does not work,
try to jump-start the vehicle. (refer to
jump-starting)
After starting the vehicle (HEV
Ready), the 12V battery is being
charged whether the engine is run-
ning or not. Although there is no
engine-sound, it is not necessary to
step on the accelerator pedal.
Once the 12V battery is fully dis-
charged and reconnected, the 12V
battery is initialized.
