Driving procedures
Driving procedure
WARNING
■
When driving the vehicle
●
If the vehicle is coasting due to the engine being stopped, etc., do not operate the door
locks or open a door until the vehicle has been safely stopped. Doing so may cause the
steering lock function to operate, possibly leading to an accident.
●
When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to difficulty in operating
the pedals.
Make sure to operate the pedals properly.
●
Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the vehicle only
slightly. This allows you to depress the brake and accelerator pedals properly.
●
Depress the brake pedal using your right foot.
Depressing the brake pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency,
resulting in an accident.
●
Do not drive the vehicle over or stop the vehicle near flammable materials. The
exhaust system and exhaust gases can be extremely hot. These hot parts may cause a
fire if there is any flammable material nearby.
●
Never turn the engine switch off during normal driving. If the engine is stopped while
driving, steering and brake operations will still be possible, however, power assist will
no longer be provided and the steering wheel and brakes will become difficult to
operate. After checking the safety of the area around your vehicle, stop the vehicle
on the side of the road. In an emergency, if the vehicle cannot be stopped normally,
perform an emergency stop.
●
Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving down a steep
hill. Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and lose effec-
tiveness.
●
Do not adjust the positions of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or outside rear
view mirrors while driving. Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●
Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their body are not
outside the vehicle.
●
AWD models: This vehicle is not designed for extreme off-roading.
•
When driving in sand or mud is unavoidable, drive carefully and avoid continuous
driving on sand or mud.
•
Do not drive on extremely rocky roads or extremely uneven roads.
