WARNING
l Avoid sudden regenerative braking when
driving on wet or icy roads. Using sudden
regenerative braking under these condi-
tions could cause the vehicle to skid, re-
sulting in a serious accident.
NOTE l When

the traction battery level is nearly full
or the traction battery temperature is low, the
regenerative braking performance may be
weakened. In this case, drive the vehicle at a
low speed.
“C” COMFORT
This position gives weaker regenerative braking
than the “D” (DRIVE) position. It enables relaxed
driving in circumstances in which you do not accel-
erate or decelerate much (for example, suburban
driving). It is intended for long cruising. Driving the vehicle
E00629700016
Operation of the transmission E00629800020 CAUTION
l
Before
selecting a position with the elec-
tric motor unit running and the vehicle
stationary, fully depress the brake pedal
to prevent the vehicle from creeping.
The vehicle will begin to move as soon as
the transmission is engaged, the brakes
should only be released when you are
ready to drive away.
l Depress the brake pedal with the right
foot at all times.
Using the left foot could cause driver move-
ment delay in case of an emergency.
l Operating the accelerator pedal while the
other foot is resting on the brake pedal
will affect braking efficiency and may
cause premature wear of brake pads.
Waiting E00630900018
For short waiting periods, such as at traffic signals
the

vehicle can be left in selector lever position and
held stationary with the service brake.
For longer waiting periods with the electric motor
unit running, place the selector lever in the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position and apply the parking brake,
while holding the vehicle stationary with the serv-
ice brake. CAUTION
l
Never
hold the vehicle stationary while in
transmission on a hill with the accelera-
tor, always apply the parking brake and/
or service brake.
Parking E00631000016
To park the vehicle, first bring it to a complete
stop,

fully engage the parking brake, and then
move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position.
If you are going to leave the vehicle unattended, al-
ways switch off the electric motor unit and carry
the key.
NOTE
l On a slope, be sure to apply the parking
brake before moving the selector lever to the
“P” (PARK) position. If you move the selec-
tor lever to the “P” (PARK) position before
applying the parking brake, it may be diffi-
cult to disengage the selector lever from the
“P” (PARK) position when you next drive
the vehicle, requiring application of a strong
force to the selector lever to move it from the
“P” (PARK) position. Starting and driving
