WARNING
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may result in
death or serious injury.
When starting the vehicle
(vehicles with a continuously
variable transmission)
Always keep your foot on the
brake pedal while stopped with
the engine running. This prevents
the vehicle from creeping.
When driving the vehicle
Do not drive if you are unfamil-
iar with the location of the brake
and accelerator pedals to avoid
depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the
accelerator pedal instead of the
brake pedal will result in sudden
acceleration that may lead to an
accident.
• When backing up, you may twist
your body around, leading to a
difficulty in operating the pedals.
Make sure to operate the pedals
properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct
driving posture even when mov-
ing the vehicle only slightly. This
allows you to depress the brake
and accelerator pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using
your right foot. Depressing the
brake pedal using your left foot
may delay response in an emer-
gency, resulting in an accident.
