been started, the hybrid READY indicator
light on the combination meter will illumi-
nate.
If the hybrid system does not start, try the
following.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK (off) position and wait for at
least 30 seconds. After checking that
the parking brake is firmly set, turn the
ignition switch to the START position
while depressing the accelerator pedal
slightly (approximately a quarter of the
full stroke). Release the accelerator
pedal as soon as the engine starts.
(2) If this fails to start the engine, turn
the ignition switch back to the LOCK
(off) position and wait for at least 30
seconds. Then fully depress the accel-
erator peda l and turn the ignition
switch to the START position. If the

6. Confirm that all warning and indicator
lights ( except hybrid READY indicator
light) have turned off after the engine has
started. The fuel injection system auto-
matically lowers the idle speed as the
engine warms up.
While the engine is warming up, make
sure that the select lever is at the P or
N position and that the parking brake is
applied.
CAUTION
Do not operate the starter motor

onds. If the engine fails to start after
operating the st arter for 5 to 10
seconds, wait for 10 seconds or
more before trying again.

depressing the accelerator pedal when
the engine is having difficulties start-
ing, switch to the brake pedal immedi-
ately after starting.

LOCK (off) position only w hen the
vehicle is stopped, the select lever is in
the P position and the engine is idling or
stopped automatically.
WARNING

the vehicle is moving. This will
cause loss of power to the power
steering and the brake booster,
making steering and braking more
difficult. I t could also result in
accidental activation of the LOCK
(off) position on the ignition switch,
causing the steering wheel to lock.
