2-1. Driving procedures
2
When driving
L/C200_U
CAUTION
●
Do not shift the shift lever to "R" while the vehicle is moving forward.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle\
control.
● Do not shift the shift lever to "D" while the vehicle is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle\
control.
● Moving the shift lever to "N" while the vehicle is moving will disengage the
engine from the transmission. Engine braking is not available when "N" is
selected.
● During normal driving, do not turn off the engine. Turning the engine off
while driving will not cause  loss of steering or braking control, but the
power assist to these systems will be lost. This will make it more difficult to
steer and brake, so you should pull over and stop the vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so.
However, in the event of an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible
to stop the vehicle in the   normal way:  P. 500
● Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving
down a steep hill. 
Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and lose
effectiveness. ( P. 156)
● When stopped on an inclined surface, use the brake pedal and parking
brake to prevent the vehicle from rolling backward or forward and causing
an accident. 
● Do not adjust the position of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or
outside rear view mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control that can cause accidents
that may result in death or serious injury.
● Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their bod-
ies are not outside the vehicle, as this may result in death or serious injury.
● Do not drive in excess of the speed limit. Even if the legal speed limit per-
mits it, do not drive over 85 mph (140 km/h) unless your vehicle has high-
speed capability tires. Driving over 85 mph (140 km/h) may result in tire
failure, loss of control and possible injury. Be sure to consult a tire dealer
to determine whether the tires on your vehicle are high-speed capability
tires or not before driving at such speeds.

2-1. Driving procedures

When driving
L/C200_U
CAUTION
■
When braking the vehicle
● When the brakes are wet, drive more cautiously.
Braking distance increases when the brakes are wet, and may cause one
side of the vehicle to brake differently than the other side. Also the parking
brake may not securely hold the vehicle.
● If the power brake assist function does not operate, do not follow other
vehicles closely and avoid downhill or  sharp turns that require braking. 
In this case, braking is still possible, but it will require more force on the
pedal than usual. Braking distance may also increase.
● Do not pump the brake pedal if the engine stalls. 
Each push on the brake pedal uses up the reserve for the power-assisted
brakes.
● The brake system consists of 2 individual hydraulic systems: if one of the
systems fails, the other will still operate. In this case, the brake pedal
should be depressed more firmly than usual and braking distance
becomes longer. 
Do not drive your vehicle with only a single brake system. Have your
brakes fixed immediately.

L/C200_U
Intuitive parking assist
: If equipped
Intuitive parking assist uses sensors in the corners and rear of the
vehicle to detect the distance between the vehicle and any obsta-
cles, and informs the driver of th is distance using the multi-informa-
tion display, the touch  screen, and warning beeps.
■Sensor types
Front corner sensors
Rear corner sensors 
Back sensors
■ Intuitive parking assist switch
On/off
To turn the system on, press
the switch. The indicator light
comes on to inform the driver
that the system is operational.
To turn the system off, press
the switch again.

Obstacle detection range
About 2.0 ft. (60 cm)
About 4.9 ft. (150 cm)
The detection area of the sensors
is shown to the left. If obstacles
move too close to the sensors,
they will not be detected.
The range of the sensors may
change depending on the shape
of the object etc.
