WARNING
■ To prevent an accident or injury 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 ho od until
the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot.
● After the hybrid system has been turned off, check that the “READY” indi-
cator 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 rotating parts such as the
fan, which may lead to fingers or clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muf-
fler) getting caught, resulting in serious injury.
● Do not loosen the radiator cap and the coolant reservoir cap wh ile the
hybrid system and radiator are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■ When adding engine/power control unit coolant
Wait until the hybrid system has cooled down before adding engine/power
control unit coolant.
When adding coolant, do so slowly. Adding cool coolant to a hot hybrid sys-
tem too quickly can cause damage to the hybrid system.
■ To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
● Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sa nd or dust
etc.).
● Do not use any coolant additives.
