7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
WARNING
■When inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in serious
injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until the steam has subsided. The engine com-
partment may be very hot.
●After the hybrid system has been turned off, 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
operate even if the gasoline engine stops. Do not touch or approach rotat-ing parts such as the fan, which may
lead to fingers or clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) getting caught, resulting in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant inlet cap or
coolant reservoir caps while the hybrid system and radiator are hot.High temperature steam or coolant
could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power control unit coolant
Add coolant slowly after the hybrid sys- tem has cooled down sufficiently. Adding
cool coolant to a hot hybrid system too quickly can cause damage to the hybrid system.
■To prevent damage to the cooling sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or dust etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.

Recovering procedure
WARNING
■When attempting to free a stuck vehi- cle
If you choose to push the vehicle back and forth to free it, make sure the sur-
rounding area is clear to avoid striking other vehicles, objects or people. The vehicle may also lunge forward or lunge
back suddenly as it becomes free. Use extreme caution.
■When shifting the shift position
Be careful not to shift the shift position with the accelerator pedal depressed.
This may lead to unexpected rapid accel- eration of the vehicle that may cause an accident resulting in death or serious
injury.

●Avoid spinning the rear wheels and depressing the accelerator pedal
more than necessary.
●If the vehicle remains stuck even after these procedures are performed, the vehicle may require towing to be freed.
