Creeping
As with a conventional petrol-powered vehicle with an automatic transmission, this
vehicle will creep.
Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed when stopped.
■
Kickdown
Quickly depressing the accelerator pedal while driving uphill may cause the vehicle
to react similar to an automatic transmission vehicle, unexpectedly increasing vehicle
speed. Depress the accelerator pedal carefully, especially on slippery roads and
curves.

1Precautions While Driving
During the first 1,000 km of operation, avoid sudden
acceleration or full throttle operation so as not to
damage the power system or powertrain.
Avoid hard braking for the first 300 km.
You should also follow this when the brake pads are
replaced.
1In Rain
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 regenerative braking can cause the
tyres to skid.
