When the clutch is overheated,
the safe protection
engages. If the safe protection
mode engages, the gear posi-
tion indicator on the cluster
blinks with a chime sound.
At this time, a warning message
will appear on the LCD display
and driving may not be smooth.
If you ignore this warning, the
driving condition may become
worse.
To return to normal driving con-
ditions, stop the vehicle on a flat
road and apply the foot brake for
a few minutes before driving off.
Parking on hills
mode
Generally, if you have a trailer
attached to your vehicle, you should
not park your vehicle on a hill.
However, if you ever have to park your
trailer on a hill, here's how to do it:
1. Pull the vehicle into the parking
space.
Turn the steering wheel in the
direction of the kerb (left if headed
down hill, right if headed up hill).
2. Shift the vehicle to P (Park, for
automatic transmission vehicle) or
neutral (for manual transmission
vehicle).
3. Set the parking brake and shut off
the vehicle.
4. Place wheel chocks under the
trailer wheels on the down hill side
of the wheels.
5. Start the vehicle, hold the brakes,
shift to neutral, release the park-
ing brake and slowly release the
brakes until the trailer chocks
absorb the load.
6. Reapply the brakes and parking
brakes.
7. Move the shift lever to P (Park, for
automatic transmission vehicle) or
1st gear (for manual transmission
vehicle) when the vehicle is
parked on a uphill gradient and in
R (Reverse) on a downhill.
8. Shut off the vehicle and release
the vehicle brakes but leave the
parking brake set.
WARNING
To prevent serious or fatal
injury:
•
Do not get out of the vehicle
without the parking brake
firmly set. If you have left the
engine running, the vehicle
can move suddenly. You and
others could be seriously or
fatally injured.
•
Do not apply the accelerator
pedal to hold the vehicle on
an uphill.
