8–8 VEHICLE CARE
CAUTION
If you travel at a high speed on a wet
road, your tires might not be in con-
stant contact with the road; if your
tires float, your vehicle starts
hydroplaning. You might lose con-
trol of your steering and brakes.
After driving through a puddle of water, or
after a car wash, apply your brake pedal
lightly several times while moving slowly to
confirm that your brakes work normally be-
fore getting on the road.
Putting Away Things that Interfere with
Driving
Driving in the Rain
When it is raining the road surface becomes
slippery and your tire-to-road traction is
reduced, so you should drive more carefully
than usual.
WARNING
•
Do not leave inflammable materials,
such as disposable lighters or
sprays, inside the vehicle. They
might cause a fire or an explosion.
•
Do not place objects under the
driver’s feet or cover the car bottom
with a very thick carpet as it might
interfere with applying your brake,
clutch and accelerator pedals.
Using Engine Brakes on Long Downgrades
If you repeatedly apply the brake pedal, the
brakes overheat and the braking effective-
ness can deteriorate. When on a long
downgrade, shift to low gear and apply your
brake pedal together with engine brake.
NOTE
Engine brake allows for slowing of
the vehicle while the accelerator
pedal is not applied; down-shifting
increases the effectiveness of this
retarding force.
Always Putting Out Cigarettes
•
Make sure you have put out all cigarettes
and matches completely before throw-
ing them into your ashtray.
•
Do not put many cigarette butts or ma-
terials that easily catch fire into your
ashtray.
CAUTION
For safer driving, refrain from smok-
ing while on the road.
Being Careful with Accessories
Do not attach accessories or other unnec-
essary things to your car’s window as they
might interfere with your driving. Attached
accessory can work as a lens and start a
fire or cause an accident.
Being Careful while Checking Your
Coolant
When engine is hot, never open the cap of
the coolant tank.
Hot steam or liquid might surge upwards and
cause burns to your face or body.
