WARNING!
(Continued)
• Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the system
cannot maintain a constant speed. Your vehicle could go too fast for
the conditions, and you could lose control. A collision could be the
result. Do not use Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on
roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION (CVT)
• While conventional automatic transmissions typically have 4, 5 or 6
speeds, the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) has an infinite
number of speeds. This allows it to adjust to exactly the right ratio to
optimize performance and fuel economy.
• Under hard acceleration, you may hear more engine noise than with a
conventional transmission. The CVT may also occasionally feel like it is
“shifting.” These characteristics are perfectly normal and contribute to
the CVT's efficiency.
MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROLS
Air Recirculation
• Use recirculation for maximum A/C operation.
• For window defogging, turn the recirculation button off.
• Recirculation is not allowed in defrost, floor, defrost/floor (mix) modes.
