CAUTION: Do not drive on the road where water is
deep. Driving through deep water will cause damage
to the engine and electrical equipment and the
vehicle will break down.
NOTICE
Do not operate the shift lever while pressing the
accelerator pedal. You could damage the
transmission.
NOTICE
If you repeatedly turn the steering wheel at an
extremely low speed, or hold the steering wheel on
the full left or right position for a while, the electric
power steering (EPS) system heats up. The system
goes into a protective mode, and limits its
performance. The steering wheel becomes harder
and harder to operate. Once the system cools down,
the EPS system is restored. Repeated operation under
these conditions can eventually damage the system.
If the ignition switch is turned to ACCESSORY
LOCK *1 while driving, the engine will shut down
( 0
and all steering and brake power assist functions will
stop, making it difficult to control the vehicle.
Do not put the shift lever in
engine braking (and acceleration) performance.
