Driving your vehicle
• Never press the Engine
Start/Stop button while the
vehicle is in motion except in
an emergency situation. This
would turn the engine OFF,
resulting in loss of power
assist for the steering wheel
and brake. This may lead to
loss of directional control and
braking function, which could
cause an accident.

• Before leaving the driver’s
seat, always make sure the
shift gear is engaged in P
(Park), fully set the parking
brake and turn the engine
OFF. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement may occur
if these precautions are not
taken.
• Never touch the Engine
Start/Stop button, or any other
controls on the steering wheel
while the vehicle is in motion.
Reaching out for those con-
trols with your hand or arm
may cause a loss of vehicle
control, an accident, serious
bodily injury or death.
• Do not place any loose
objects around the driver’s
seat, as they may toss about
while driving, interfering with
the driver's pedal operation
and leading to an accident.
