the relevant door.
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system: After stopping the vehicle, the
window can be closed by holding the power window switch in the one-touch
closing position while the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: After stopping the vehicle, the
window can be closed by holding the power window switch in the one-touch
closing position while the engine switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode.
If the window still cannot be closed even by carrying out the operation as
explained above, initialize the function by performing the following proce-
dure.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch closing position. Continue
holding the switch for a further 6 seconds after the window has closed.

tinue holding the switch for a further 2 seconds after the window has
opened completely.

again. Continue holding the switch for a further 2 seconds after the win-
dow has closed.

When starting off on an uphill
The hill-start assist control is available. (P. 281)
Driving in the rain
Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the win-
dows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be espe-
cially slippery.
Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the rain,
because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road sur-
face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
Engine speed while driving (vehicles with a Multidrive)
In the following conditions, the engine speed may become high while driving.
This is due to automatic up-shifting control or down-shifting implementation to
meet driving conditions. It does not indicate sudden acceleration.
The vehicle is judged to be driving uphill or downhill
When the accelerator pedal is released
When the brake pedal is depressed while sport mode is selected
