CONTINUOUS IDLING MODE

The vehicle can switch to the continuous idling mode by the following procedures:

Operate the electric motor switch with the brake pedal depressed, and start the electric motor unit.
After making the system enter the SAVE mode by pressing the save/charge mode switch, press and hold the save/charge mode switch again for 10 seconds or more to start the engine.
Confirm that the display on the multi information display screen changes from "CHARGE" to "SAVE" after 10 seconds.

note	When you press the save/charge mode switch with the battery partially charged, the engine will start in the CHARGE mode. Then, when you hold pressing it further, it will run in the SAVE mode.

note	The continuous idling mode can be turned off by pressing the save/charge mode switch, or by turning OFF the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.

note	The racing can be performed with the charging status that is 60% or less. For checking the charging status, use the BMU data list item No. 1 on the M.U.T.-IIISE [Charge state(Control)]. When the charging status becomes 35% or less, the electrical load should increase for electricity generation.

note	When the racing is continued for more than the specified time, the ECM closes the throttle valve and restricts the engine speed to protect the engine.
