7-1. Essential information
When trouble arises
press it briefly 3 times or more in
succession.
5 Stop the vehicle in a safe place by
the road.
If the door can be opened, open the
door and exit the vehicle.
If the door can not be opened, open
the window using the power win-
dow switch and ensure an escape
route.
If the window can be opened, exit
the vehicle through the window.
If the door and window cannot be
opened due to the rising water,
remain calm, wait until the water
level inside the vehicle rises to the
point that the water pressure inside
of the vehicle equals the water pres-
sure outside of the vehicle and then
open the door after waiting for the
rising water to enter the vehicle, and
exit the vehicle. When the outside
water level exceeds half the height
of the door, the door cannot be
opened from the inside due to water
pressure.
Q If the hybrid system has to be turned
off while driving
Power assist for the steering wheel will
be lost, making the steering wheel
heavier to turn. Decelerate as much as
possible before turning off the hybrid
system.
If the vehicle is submerged
or water on the road is rising
This vehicle is not designed to be
able to drive on roads that are
deeply flooded with water. Do not
drive on roads where the roads may
be submerged or the water may be
rising. It is dangerous to remain in
the vehicle, if it anticipated that the
vehicle will be flooded or set a drift.
Remain calm and follow the follow-
ing.
