WARNING
■The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal information display. At extremely low temperatures, the information display monitor may respond
slowly, and display changes may be delayed. For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear numberappearing on the display. This lag could cau se the driver to downshift again, causing
rapid and excessive engine braking and po ssibly an accident resulting in death or injury.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the hybrid system and its components
●While the tachometer is displayed, do not let the indicator needle of the tachometerenter the red zone, which indicates the maximum engine speed.
●The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is in the redzone (H). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and check theengine after it has cooled completely. ( P. 535)
