CAUTION
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■
When driving on slippery road surfaces
●
Sudden braking, acceleration and steering may cause tire slippage and reduce
your ability to control the vehicle.
●
Sudden acceleration, engine braking due to shift changing, or changes in engine
speed could cause the vehicle to skid.
●
After driving through a puddle, lightly depress the brake pedal to make sure that
the brakes are functioning properly. Wet brake pads may prevent the brakes from
functioning properly. If the brakes on only one side are wet and not functioning
properly, steering control may be affected.
■
When shifting the shift lever
●
Do not let the vehicle roll backward while the shift lever is in a driving position, or
roll forward while the shift lever is in R.
Doing so may cause the engine to stall or lead to poor brake and steering perfor-
mance, resulting in an accident or damage to the vehicle.
●
Do not shift the shift lever to P while the vehicle is moving.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●
Do not shift the shift lever to R while the vehicle is moving forward.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●
Do not shift the shift lever to D while the vehicle is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●
Do not shift the shift lever to N while the vehicle is moving. Doing so will disen-
gage the engine from the transmission. Engine braking is not available when N is
selected.
●
Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed. Shift-
ing the shift lever to a gear other than P or N may lead to unexpected rapid accel-
eration of the vehicle that may cause an accident and result in death or serious
injury.
