The ABS becomes operative after the vehicle has acceler-
ated to a speed in excess of approximately 10 km/h (6
mph). It stops operating when the vehicle decelerates to a
speed below approximately 10 km/h (6 mph).
Electric power steering system
E00607400026
The electric power steering system reduces the effort required
to turn the steering wheel. It operates while the engine is run-
ning.
NOTE
●
If you repeatedly turn the steering wheel fully to either
side (while parking, for example), a protective function
that prevents the system from overheating will be acti-
vated, making the steering action gradually heavier. In this
event, turn the steering wheel as little as possible for a
while. When the system’s temperature decreases, the
steering action will return to normal.
●
If you turn the steering wheel while the vehicle is station-
ary with its headlamps on, the headlamps may grow dim.
This phenomenon does not indicate a fault. The head-
lamps will return to their original brightness after a short
while.
CAUTION
!
●
Do not stop the engine while driving. With the
engine stopped, the steering action would become
extremely heavy and an unexpected accident might
occur.
