Starting and driving
•
Avoid making sharp turns and braking hard
except in emergencies. Doing so during high-
speed driving could cause the vehicle to tip over.
•
Avoid accelerating sharply on slippery roads
since this could make the tires slip and impair
directional stability.
•
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.
•
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.
•
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 keep the steering wheel turned to the
right or left stop for more than 10 seconds as
doing so could lead to a failure of the power
steering system.
•
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.
