If the charging system
indicator comes on brightly

when the engine is running, the 12
volt battery is not being charged.

Go to a service station or garage
where you can get technical
assistance.

Immediately turn off all electrical
accessories. Try not to use other
electrically operated controls such as
the power windows. Keep the engine
running; starting the engine will
discharge the battery rapidly.

You will also see a ‘‘CHECK
CHARGING SYSTEM’’ message on
the multi-information display (see
page

).

This indicator may blink after you
start the vehicle in the morning
when the temperature is below

20°F (

30°C). It will stop

blinking when the IMA battery
warms up.
