Parking
Warning!
To reduce the risk of personal in­
jury as a result of vehicle move­
ment, before leaving the vehicle
always:
1. Keep foot on brake pedal.
2. Firmly depress parking brake
pedal.
3. Slowly release brake pedal.
4. Move the selector lever to
position “P”.
5. Turn front wheels towards the
road curb.
6. Turn the key to steering lock
position 0 and remove.
Note:
It is advisable to set the parking
brake whenever leaving the vehicle.
Also, when parking on hills, always
apply the parking brake. In addition,
move selector lever to positon “ P”.
Winter Driving Instructions
The most important rule for slippery
or icy roads is to drive sensibly and
to avoid abrupt acceleration, brak­
ing and steering action. Do not use
the cruise control system under
such conditions.
When the vehicle is in danger of
skidding, move selector lever to
position “ N”. Try to keep the
vehicle under control by corrective
steering action.
Road salts and chemicals can
adversely affect braking efficiency.
Increased pedal force may become
necessary to produce the normal
brake effect. We therefore recom­
mend depressing the brake pedal
repeatedly when traveling on salt-
strewn roads at length. This can
bring road salt impaired braking
efficiency back to normal. A prere­
quisite is, however, that this is
possible without endangering other
drivers on the road.
If the vehicle is parked after being
driven on salt treated roads, the
braking efficiency should be tested
as soon as possible after driving is
resumed while observing the safety
rules in the previous paragraph.
