Driving Information

Control of a Vehicle

Do not allow the vehicle to slide when the
engine is out of operation. In such a case,
many systems (such as brake booster)
cannot function. Driving in this way will put
yourself and others in danger.
Pedal
To ensure that the pedal travel is
unhampered, the floor mat in the pedal area
should not be thick, and no items should be
placed in the pedal area.

Steering

Electric Power Steering (EPS) System
Power Steering Warning Light
The EPS system provides the steering assist
for the vehicle. Power steering fluid is not
required for the system.
When the ignition switch is connected, the
EPS MIL illuminates momentarily. If the EPS
MIL does not go out or illuminates when
the vehicle is running, there is a problem
with the EPS system.
