NOTICE -
Full throttle resistor
(if equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with a resis-
tor in the accelerator pedal, it prevents
you from driving at full throttle unin-
tentionally by making the driver require
increased effort to depress the accelera-
tor pedal. However, if you depress the
pedal more than approximately 80%,
the vehicle can be at full throttle and the
accelerator pedal will be easier to
depress. This is not a malfunction but a
normal condition.
Starting the petrol engine
(if equipped)1. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
2. Manual Transaxle - Depress the
clutch pedal fully and shift the
transaxle into Neutral. Keep the clutch
pedal and brake pedal depressed
whilst turning the ignition switch to the
start position.
Automatic Transaxle - Place the
transaxle shift lever in P (Park).
Depress the brake pedal fully.
You can also start the engine when the shift lever is in the N (Neutral) position.
3. Turn the ignition switch to START and hold it there until the engine starts (a
maximum of 10 seconds), then
release the key.It should be started without depressingthe accelerator.4. Do not wait for the engine to warm up whilst the vehicle remains stationary.
Start driving at moderate engine
speeds. (Steep accelerating and decel-
erating should be avoided.)
CAUTION
If the engine stalls whilst you are in motion, do not attempt to move theshift lever to the P (Park) position. If traffic and road conditions permit,you may put the shift lever in the N(Neutral) position whilst the vehicle is still moving and turn the ignitionswitch to the START position in an attempt to restart the engine.
CAUTION
 Do not engage the starter for more than 10 seconds. If the enginestalls or fails to start, wait 5 to 10 seconds before re-engaging thestarter. Improper use of the startermay damage it.
 Do not turn the ignition switch to the START position with theengine running. It may damagethe starter.
WARNING
 Always wear appropriate shoes when operating your vehicle.
Unsuitable shoes (high heels, ski
boots,etc.) may interfere with
your ability to use the brake and
accelerator pedal, and the clutch
(if equipped).
 Do not start the vehicle with the accelerator pedal depressed. The
vehicle can move and lead to an
accident.
 Wait until the engine rpm is nor- mal. The vehicle may suddenly
move if the brake padel is
released when the rpm is high.

ISG (IDLE STOP AND GO) SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)Your vehicle may be equipped with the
ISG system, which reduces fuel con-
sumption by automatically shutting down
the engine, when the vehicle is at a
standstill. (For example : red light, stop
sign and traffic jam)
The engine starts automatically as soon
as the starting conditions are met.
The ISG system is ON whenever the
engine is running.✽ ✽NOTICE When the engine automatically starts by
the ISG system, some warning lights
(ABS, ESC, ESC OFF, EPS or Parking
brake warning light) may turn on for a
few seconds.
This happens because of low battery
voltage. It does not mean the system is
malfunctioning.
Auto stopTo stop the engine in idle stop mode1. Decrease the vehicle speed to less
than 5 km/h.
2. Shift into N (Neutral) position.
3. Release the clutch pedal. The engine will stop and the green AUTO
STOP indicator ( ) on the instrument
cluster will illuminate. If your vehicle is
equipped with a supervision cluster, the
notice will illuminate on the LCD display.

Driving your vehicle
 You must consciously take the effort tolearn how to corner in a 4WD vehicle.
Do not rely on your experience in con-
ventional 2WD vehicles in choosing
safe cornering speed in 4WD mode.
For drivers with little or no experience
of driving a 4WD, you must drive more
slowly in 4WD.
 Drive carefully off-road because your vehicle may be damaged by rocks or
roots of trees. Become familiar with the
off-road conditions where you are
going to drive before you begin driving.
 Always hold the steering wheel firmlywhen you are driving off-road.
 Make sure all passengers are wearing seat belts.  If you need to drive in the water, stop
your vehicle, set your transfer to the
4WD LOCK mode and drive at less
than 5 mph (8 km/h).
WARNING
- Steering
wheel
Do not grab the inside of the steer-
ing wheel when you are driving off-
road. You may hurt your arm by a
sudden steering manoeuvre or
from steering wheel rebound due to
impact with objects on the ground.
You could lose control of the steer-
ing wheel.
WARNING
- Wind danger
If you are driving in heavy wind, the
vehicle's higher centre of gravity
decreases your steering control
capacity and requires you to drive
more slowly.
WARNING
- Driving
through water
Drive slowly. If you are driving too
fast in water, the water can get into
the engine compartment and wet
the ignition system, causing your
vehicle to suddenly stop. If this
happens and your vehicle is in a
tilted position, your vehicle may roll
over.
OLM059022L
WARNING
- 4WD
Reduce speed when you turn cor-
ners. The centre of gravity of 4WD
vehicles is higher than that of con-
ventional 2WD vehicles, making
them more likely to roll over when
you turn corners too fast.

5Downhill brake control (DBC)
(if equipped)The Downhill Brake Control (DBC) sup-
ports the driver come down a steep hill
without the driver depressing the brake
pedal. It slows down the vehicle under 5
mph (8 km/h) with the automatic
transaxle or 5 mph (8 km/h) with the
manual transaxle and lets the driver con-
centrate on steering the vehicle.
DBC defaults to the OFF position when-
ever the ignition is turned on.
The DBC can be turned on or off by
pushing the button.
Standby
Press the DBC button when the vehicle speed is under
25 mph (40 km/h). The DBC system will turn ON and
enter the standby mode.
The system does not turn ON if the vehicle speed is
over 25 mph (40 km/h).
In the standby mode, if the vehicle speed is under 22
mph (35 km/h) whilst driving down a steep hill, the DBC
will activate automatically.
In the activated mode, the DBC will temporarily deacti-
vate under the following conditions:
 The hill is not steep enough.
 The brake pedal or accelerator pedal is depressed.If the above conditions are gone, the DBC will automat-
ically activate again.
The DBC will turn OFF under the following conditions:
 The DBC button is pressed again.
 The vehicle speed is over 38 mph (60 km/h).
