■ Running out of fuel
When the vehicle has run out of fuel and the
hybrid system cannot be started, refuel the
vehicle with at least enough gasoline to
make the low fuel level warning light
(P.619) go off. If there is only a small
amount of fuel, the hybrid system may not
be able to start. (The standard amount of
fuel is about 3.7 gal. [14.0 L, 3.1 Imp.gal.],
when the vehicle is on a level surface. This
value may vary when the vehicle is on a
slope. Add extra fuel when the vehicle is
inclined.)
Hybrid system precautions
Take care when handling the hybrid system, as it is a high voltage system
(about 288 V at maximum) as well as contains parts that become extremely
hot when the hybrid system is operating. Read the following descriptions care-
fully before using the hybrid system, and handle the hybrid system correctly.
Note that warning labels with a mark are attached to the hight voltage
components, to remind you of careful handling required.
