    While driving on the road I encountered the attached error in japanese. Please kindly seeking professional advise in advising what the error means and how could this be solved. Hopefully it's not anything serious as it scares me. Screenshot_2017-05-16-20-36-33.png

    I think this is closer to what it said:

    ハイブリッドシステムチェック

    Google translates that to "Hybrid system check" (and the kana are basically sounding out the English words "hybrid system check" based on the pronunciation).

    Basically, there's a fault code stored, related to some part of the hybrid system (that includes the engine), you'll need to scan it, ideally with Techstream.

    It could be literally anything. You will need to use a scan tool like Techstream to check the fault code(s) that are stored.

    It's saying "An error occurred" . General error message without much detail. What was the car doing (or not doing) when this warning came on?
