2-1. Driving procedures
CAUTION
When the vehicle is stopped
■
Do not depress the accelerator pedal unnecessarily.
●
If the vehicle is in any gear other than P or N, the vehicle may accelerate suddenly
and unexpectedly, causing an accident.
Do not leave the vehicle with the hybrid system on for a long time.
●
If such a situation cannot be avoided, park the vehicle in an open space and
check that exhaust fumes do not enter the vehicle interior.
In order to prevent accidents due to the vehicle rolling away, always keep
●
depressing the brake pedal while the "READY" indicator is on. Apply the parking
brake as necessary.
If the vehicle is stopped on an incline, in order to prevent accidents caused by the
●
vehicle rolling forward or backward, always depress the brake pedal and securely
apply the parking brake as needed.
Avoid revving or racing the engine.
●
Running the engine at high speed while the vehicle is stopped may cause the
exhaust system to overheat, which could result in a fire if combustible material is
nearby.
