Continuously Variable Transmission

■
Creeping
The engine runs at a higher idle speed and creeping increases.
Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed when stopped.
■
Kickdown
Quickly depressing the accelerator pedal while driving uphill may cause the
transmission to drop to a lower ratio, unexpectedly increasing vehicle speed.
Depress the accelerator pedal carefully, especially on slippery roads and curves.

Be careful when hydroplaning phenomenon occurs.
When you drive on a road covered with water at
excessive speed, a layer of water builds between the
tyres and the road surface. If this occurs, the vehicle
cannot respond to control inputs such as steering,
and braking.
Slowly decelerate when you shift down. If the road is
slippery, sudden engine braking can cause the tyres
to skid.
