STARTING AND DRIVING
NOTE
The engine can only be started when
the gearshift lever is in "N" position
with the brake pedal firmly pressed.
Driving (AMT)
Climbing Sharp Gradients
Apply the parking brake firmly so that the
vehicle does not roll backwards.
Shift the gearshift lever to the "A" posi-
tion while depressing the brake pedal.
Make sure that the gear position indica-
tor in the instrument cluster displays
1
' st' gear.
Release the brake pedal and depress
the accelerator pedal gradually, and
when the vehicle starts to move, release
the parking brake and depress the accel-
erator pedal to start off.
On climbing sharp gradients, never hold
the vehicle at a stop using only the ac-
celerator pedal or the creeping function.
If you perform this operation for a certain
period of time, this can also cause ex-
cessive damage to the clutch.

WARNING
Try not to hold the brake pedal
down too long or too often while go-
ing down a steep or long hill.
This could cause the brakes to
overheat, resulting in reduced
braking efficiency. Failure to take
this precaution could result in loss
of vehicle control.
Descending Sharp Gradients
Depress the brake pedal and shift the
A
gear shift lever to the ' ' position. Make
sure that the gear position indicator in
the instrumental cluster displays '1st'
gear.
Release the brake pedal and depress
the accelerator pedal slowly. Even if the
accelerator pedal is not depressed, the
clutch will be engaged when the vehicle
speed increases.
WARNING
When descending on sharp gradi-
ents, NEVER turn the ignition key to
the 'OFF' position. Emission con-
trol system damage may result.
