Page 189 NOTE ▼ When driving at high speeds, the gear may not shift down. During deceleration, the gear may automatically shift down depending on vehicle speed. When depressing the accelerator fully, the transmission will shift to a lower gear, depending on vehicle speed. However, the gears do not kickdown while the DSC is turned off.
Page 190 ▼ NOTE The gear also shifts down using kickdown while in the second gear fixed mode. NOTE If the vehicle comes to a stop while in the second gear fixed mode, the gear remains in second.
Page 191 NOTE Shifting up and down while in direct mode may not be possible depending on the vehicle speed. In addition, because direct mode is cancelled (released) depending on the rate of acceleration or if the accelerator is fully depressed, use of the manual shift mode is recommended if you need to drive the vehicle in a particular gear for long periods.
Page 192 WARNING NOTE The accelerator pedal may initially feel heavy as it is being depressed, then feel lighter as it is depressed further. This change in pedal force aids the engine control system in determining how much the accelerator pedal has been depressed for performing kickdown, and functions to control whether or not kickdown should be performed.
Page 193 ▼ NOTE To prevent discharging the battery, do not leave the lights on while the engine is off unless safety requires them. Headlights do not blind drivers approaching in the opposite direction no matter what side of the road you must drive your vehicle (left-hand or right-hand traffic). Therefore, it is not necessary to adjust the optical axis of the headlights when switching temporarily to driving on the opposite side of the road (left-hand or right-hand traffic).

Page 214 NOTE Braking distances may be longer on loose surfaces (snow or gravel, for example) which usually have a hard foundation. A vehicle with a normal braking system may require less distance to stop under these conditions because the tyres will build up a wedge of surface layer when the wheels skid.
Page 215 NOTE To turn off the TCS, press the DSC OFF switch (page 4-84). ▼ WARNING NOTE In addition to the indicator light flashing, a slight labouring sound will come from the engine. This indicates that the TCS/DSC is operating properly. On slippery surfaces, such as fresh snow, it will be impossible to achieve high rpm when the TCS is on.
