Explanation

• Appears after the 12-volt battery charging system 

indicator comes on.

• Your vehicle has less ability to accelerate and may be 

harder to start on an incline.

• Contact a dealer immediately.

• Appears when the High Voltage battery temperature is 

too low to operate (approx. -22°F [-30°C] or below).

• You can start the engine and use the climate control 

system to warm up the interior, which will also warm 
the High Voltage battery enough for you to drive the 
vehicle.

• The engine speed does not increase even if you fully 

depress the accelerator pedal.

• Appears when the High Voltage battery and other 

system control temperatures are too low to operate 
(approx. -40°F [-40°C] or below).

• You must wait for an increase in the ambient 

temperature or move the vehicle to a warmer location.

• Contact a dealer if necessary.

• Appears when the rear motor fluid temperature is 

extremely low.

• The vehicle speed is temporarily limited up to 74 mph 

(120 km/h). This is canceled after the fluid temperature 
rises.

Message

Condition

Explanation

• Appears if the AWD system has a problem due to a 

hybrid system or power distribution control failure.

• Set the power mode to OFF, then set it back to ON.

Have your vehicle checked by a dealer if the message 
appears again.

• Appears when the High Voltage battery is running 

extremely low due to continuous slow driving.

• Driving at low speed for a long time decreases the 

amount of electricity generated, leading to High 
Voltage battery drain.

• Appears when the High Voltage battery is drained even 

further and a stop is needed to charge the battery.

• Stop in a safe place in 

(

P, then charge the High Voltage 

battery by letting the engine idle.

2 If the 12-Volt Battery Charging System Indicator 

Comes On P. 569

• Appears when the High Voltage battery is being 

charged, after it has lost most of its charge. In this case, 
the vehicle is parked and the engine is running to 
supply power to the charging system.

• Do not drive the vehicle until READY indicator comes 

on.

• Apply the parking brake.

High Voltage Battery Charge Level Gauge

The High Voltage battery charge level may decrease 
under the following conditions:

•

When the 12-volt battery has been replaced.

•

When the 12-volt battery has been disconnected.

•

When the High Voltage battery control system 
corrects its reading.

The charge level reading will be corrected 
automatically while driving.

Changes in the temperature of the High Voltage 
battery can increase or decrease the battery’s 
charging capacity. If temperature changes cause the 
battery’s capacity to change, the number of 
indicators in the battery charge level gauge may also 
change, even if the amount of charging remains the 
same.
