If the IMA battery is too hot or too cold, the IMA system limits the IMA battery’s output power to protect the battery. This disables the IMA assist and auto idle stop, even though the battery level indicator on the multi- information display may show that the battery is well-charged (see page ). Therefore, if the motor assist 85
is frequently used, the battery becomes hot and starts to limit its output power.It takes a short time to normalize the IMA battery’s output power depending on the weather.

ENGINE OIL LIFE
The temperature sensor is in the front bumper. The temperature reading can be affected by heat reflection from the road surface, engine heat, and the exhaust from surrounding traffic. This can cause an incorrect temperature reading when your vehicle speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h). When you start your trip, the sensor is not fully acclimatized, therefore it may take several minutes until the proper temperature is displayed.
This shows the outside Fahrenheit temperature in U.S. models, and Celsius temperature in Canadian models.
In certain weather conditions, temperature readings near freezing (32°F, 0°C) could mean that ice is forming on the road surface.
You can adjust the outside temperature display (see page

LEVEL READING
The IMA battery level indicator shows you the state of charge of the battery for the Integrated Motor Assist (IMA). This battery is recharged and discharged by the IMA motor depending on the driving conditions.
The position of the battery level reading shows the state of charge of the IMA battery. When the battery level reading is high, the IMA battery is well charged. There are seven positions (Level 0-Level 6) of the battery level reading.
Highest level of state of charge
The battery level reading may drop near the bottom under driving conditions that require IMA motor assistance for a long time, such as prolonged acceleration or climbing a long hill.
The IMA motor will recharge the battery as you continue driving.

Since the level is not read directly, small sensing errors can, over time, cause the gauge to read higher than the actual battery level. The system will then perform a correction, and the battery level gauge reading will drop suddenly. When this happens, IMA assist and Auto Idle Stop are disabled until the IMA battery is sufficiently recharged by normal driving.
This correction of the battery level gauge is normal and does not indicate a problem. If the IMA battery develops a problem or becomes deteriorated, the IMA system indicator will come on. If this happens, have the vehicle checked by your dealer as soon as possible.
Onvehiclewithpaddleshifters The IMA battery is charged at a higher rate when the transmission is in L (Low) mode (see page
