7-4
Starting and driving
•
If you notice a strange noise, vibration, or smell,
or if steering or braking feels unusual, pull the
vehicle off the road as soon as it is safe to do so
and check for the source of the trouble. If you
cannot determine the cause of the problem and/
or cannot rectify it, contact the nearest autho-
rized dealer.
•
When driving on narrow streets or when making
a turn, keep in mind that the tracking of the front
and rear inner wheels is different, and also
make sure of rearward safety using the rearview
mirrors.
•
Remember that the mirrors protrude from the
vehicle body. Be careful not to hit pedestrians
and obstructions with the mirrors when driving
on narrow roads.
Looking at the mirrors while driving causes your
line of vision to move significantly. Be sure to
keep paying attention to safety ahead of the
vehicle.
•
Do not keep the steering wheel turned fully to
either side for more than 10 seconds. Doing so
could cause the power steering system to mal-
function.
•
Do not try to forcefully turn the steering wheel
when the front wheels are stuck against a curb-
stone or other object. Doing so could cause the
steering gearbox to fail.
•
Continuous high-speed driving burdens the
engine and other vehicle parts. Allow yourself
enough time that you do not need to push the
vehicle too hard.
•
Perform your pre-operation checks with particu-
lar care when you expect to drive at high
speeds.
When continuously driving at high speeds, your
sense of speed may become dull. Pay constant
attention to your speed, and maintain an ade-
quate distance from the preceding vehicle.
•
If a tire bursts or gets punctured while you are
driving at high speed, do not panic. Keep a firm
grip on the steering wheel and gradually reduce
your speed. Stop the vehicle in the nearest safe
place. Do not brake sharply. Braking sharply
would be dangerous because the steering wheel
would be pulled to one side with great force.
•
Do not drive your vehicle if a tire has been punc-
tured. Failure to observe this precaution will
expose the wheel bolts to excessive force, and
this in turn could lead to bolt or wheel damage.
