' U L Y L Q JExercise care in handling your vehicle. Be
conscious of not only your own safety but
also the safety of others on the road, and
thus enjoy the best and most comfortable
driving experience.
This section contains basic rules for safe
driving. Read it carefully for good under-
standing of the content so that you can
enjoy safe and pleasant driving in your
vehicle.
6 W D U W L Q J
1) Adjust the driver’s seat for the proper
driving posture.
2) Adjust the rear view mirror so as to
obtain the best possible rear view.
3) Before moving off, look forward and
back to confirm safety.4) Don’t start quickly, since it is dangerous
and wastes fuel.
* H Q H U D O G U L Y L Q J
1) Be sure to stop before the stop light and
stop sign. When moving into the inter-
section without any traffic lights or
signs, drive slowly to confirm safety.
72F-08-002
2) Always follow other vehicles at a safe
distance in order to prevent a rear-end
collision, in case the vehicle ahead
make a sudden stop.
3) Turn ON the turn signal at least 30
meters before making a turn or chang-
ing the lane so as not to be hit from
behind.
4) Before entering a corner, decelerate to
a safe speed. Don’t apply brakes during
cornering, or a cornering skid may
occur.5) When overtaking other vehicles, watch
out for the oncoming vehicle and care-
fully confirm the safety.
6) Don’t attempt zigzag driving which will
hinder your control over the vehicle and
cause an accident.

1) Use the parking brake when parking
your vehicle and shift the gear shift
lever into the first gear or reverse gear

2) Don’t use hand-braking unless una-
voidable. It causes the vehicle to skid
and a rearend collision occur. It is espe-
cially dangerous when the tyres are
worn, for they allow a larger skid.
72F-08-012
Use foot brake in three stages
1.Warn the vehicle behind you
2.Gradually apply the brake.
3.Bring the vehicle to a halt.
3) When driving on a downhill, try not to
apply the brake but use the engine
brake effectively. Overuse of the foot
brake may result in total brake failure.
4) Avoid reckless high speed driving and
try to drive at a safe speed suitable for
the road conditions while maintaining a
constant speed.
72F-08-015
5) The higher the speed, the narrower the
driver’s visual range becomes. In such
a state, it is difficult to anticipate any
hazard and the driver feels much
fatigued.
6) Never do sharp handling during high
speed driving. You will lose your control
over your vehicle.
7) When overtaking or changing the lane
while driving at a high speed, keep an
ample vehicle-to-vehicle distance. / R Q J G L V W D Q F H G U L Y L Q J
1) Be sure to perform safety checks before
starting a trip.
2) Take rest at certain intervals to prevent
an accident which may occur when you
are sleepy or tired.
72F-08-020
1 L J K W W L P H G U L Y L Q J
1) Drive more slowly at night than in the
daytime, for the visual range is
restricted at night.
2) Don’t overtake other vehicles at night.
Darkness bothers your sense of speed
and hinders your judgment on the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance.
3) Don’t use the high headlight beam
unless its use is inevitable. Its dazzle
may blitz the driver of the oncoming
vehicle, thus causing an accident.
4) Always keep the window glasses clean.
Don’t operate the windshield wiper
