essential information
Direct Response Hybrid™ System Warning Light
   this light will illuminate when the ignition switch is in  
   the ON position and will turn off when the hybrid   
    system is started.  
 
  the light will also illuminate when a malfunction   
    occurs in the electric motor or hybrid system.  
 
  when this light illuminates while driving, immediately   
    stop the vehicle in a safe location and contact an I nFI nIt I retailer.  
 
  If the hybrid system warning light blinks while driving, it may indicate that the Li-ion battery   
    charge is low and you cannot continue to drive.  
 
  do not allow the vehicle to coast when the Li-ion battery is low or when the hybrid system   
    warning light blinks while driving.  the engine will not automatically start to charge the Li-ion   
    battery while the vehicle is coasting.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” of your   Owner’s Manual.
Hybrid Awareness
  
your vehicle is virtually silent in the electric mode. If you exit your vehicle while it is ON, but the 
    engine is not running, the engine will automatically start, informing you that the car is still ON.
 
  do not store your InFInItI Intelligent k ey™ within detection range of the vehicle. this may 
    cause welcome lights and other functions to activate creating unwanted battery drain.
 
  the hybrid system is designed for optimum efficiency and performance.  the electric mode 
    may vary with driving conditions and driver input. A full battery display does not indicate the 
    vehicle should be in the electric mode.
For more information, refer to the “Hybrid System Overview” section of your Owner’s Manual.

    is heard. 
 
  the warning message will disappear when the vehicle 
    detects the fuel-filler cap is properly tightened and the 
    reset button
 
02  is pressed for more than 1 second.
 
  If the cap is not properly tightened, the Malfunction 
    Indicator Light
