FOR YOUR VEHICLE
SECURITY
When
leaving
your
vehicle
unoccupied
：
●
Always remove the ignition
key
—
even in your own garage.
●
Close
all
windows
completely and lock all doors.
●
Always park your vehicle
where it can be seen. At night,
park in a well lit area.
●
If you have an alarm or
immobilization device, use it
—
even for short periods.
●
Do not leave children and
pets in the vehicle unattended.
●
Do not leave valuables on
view to tempt a thief. Always
take your valuables with you. If
you must leave something in
your vehicle, lock it in the
luggage compartment or hide it
out of sight.
●
Do not leave the vehicle
documents in your vehicle. In
the unfortunate event of your
vehicle
being
stolen
the
documents will only help a thief
to sell the vehicle.
●
Do not leave articles on a
roof
rack
as
they
are
particularly
vulnerable.
If
possible, remove them from the
rack and lock them in the
luggage compartment or inside
the vehicle.
●
Do not leave the spare key
in the vehicle
—
keep it in a safe
place in your home.
●
Do not leave a note of your
vehicle key number in the
vehicle. A thief may break into
the vehicle, note the key
number and return with a key to
enter and drive the vehicle.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN
DRIVING
Driving with vacuum assisted
brake:
The brake booster aids braking by
using engine vacuum. If the
engine stops, you can stop the
vehicle by depressing the brake
pedal. However, greater foot
pressure on the brake pedal will
be required to stop the vehicle
and the stopping distance will be
longer.
WARNING:
Do not coast with the engine
stopped.
Driving with the power assisted
steering:
The power assisted steering
is designed to use a hydraulic
pump, driven by the engine, to
assist steering.
If the engine stops or drive
belt breaks, you will still have
control of the vehicle. However,
much greater steering effort is
