uu When Driving u Precautions While Driving
Driving
The road is slippery when raining. Avoid hard braking, rapid acceleration, and
abrupt steering and be more cautious when driving. It is likely to experience
hydroplaning phenomenon if you are driving on a rutted road with puddles. Do not
drive in deep water and on flooded roads. This can damage the engine or driveline,
or cause electrical component failure.
If there is a strong impact with something under the vehicle, stop in a safe location.
Check the underside of the vehicle for damage or any fluid leaks.

Other Precautions
1 Precautions While Driving
During the first 1,000 km (600 miles) of operation,
avoid sudden acceleration or full throttle operation so
as not to damage the engine or powertrain.
Avoid hard braking for the first 300 km (200 miles)
after purchasing your new vehicle or replacing the
brake pads or rotors, to allow for proper break-in.
NOTICE
The following can damage the under spoiler, under
covers, front bumper, rear diffuser, and side sill:
•
Parking the vehicle by a parking block
•
Parallel parking along the road shoulder
•
Driving towards the bottom of a hill
•
Driving up or down to a different surface level
(such as a road shoulder)
•
Driving on a rutted or bumpy road
•
Driving on a road with potholes.
•
Driving over speed bump.
1 In Rain
Be careful when hydroplaning phenomenon occurs.
When you drive on a road covered with water at
excessive speed, a layer of water builds between the
tyres and the road surface. If this occurs, the vehicle
cannot respond to control inputs such as steering,
and braking.
Slowly decelerate when you shift down. If the road is
slippery, sudden engine braking can cause the tyres
to skid.
