1IMA Battery Charge Level Indicator
The IMA battery charge level may decrease rapidly
under the following conditions:
•
When the 12 volt battery has been replaced.
•
When the IMA battery has been disconnected.
•
When the IMA battery control system is correcting
its reading.
The charge level reading will be corrected
automatically while driving.
1Electric Motor Assist Indicator (ASST)
If the IMA battery is too hot or too cool, the IMA
battery's output power is limited to protect the
battery. This disables the IMA assist and auto idle
stop, even though the battery is well-charged.
It takes a short time to normalize the IMA battery's
output power depending on the weather.
