For economical driving,
there are some tech-
nical requirements that
have to be met. In
order to achieve longer life of the vehicle andthe most economical
operation, we recom-
mend you to have the vehicle checked at reg- ular intervals according to the “WARRANTYAND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. Avoid driving with the
accelerator pedal fully
depressed, such as for unnecessarily sudden starts, accelerati
on and deceleration.
Smoothly depress the
accelerator pedal.
Observe the speed limit and keep the speed as constant as possi
ble while driving.
Parking for a long period with the ready indi- cator illuminated will shorten the cruisingrange. At higher the vehicle speed the more main drive lithium-ion battery
is consumed. Avoid
driving at full speed. Even a slight release of the accelerator pedal wi
ll save a significant
amount of main drive lithium-ion battery charge. Check the tire inflation pressures at regular intervals Low tire inflat
ion pressure increases
road resistance. In addi
tion, low tire pressures
adversely affect tire we
ar and driving stabil-
ity. Do not drive with unnecessary articles in the luggage compartment. Too much cooling/heating can affect the cruising range, so maintain an appropriatetemperature to exte
nd the cruising range.
N00628900010
Drunk driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents.
Your driving ability ca
n be seriously impaired
even with blood alcohol levels far below thelegal minimum. If you
have been drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non- drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or usepublic transportation. Drinking coffee or tak- ing a cold shower will not make you sober. Similarly, prescription and nonprescriptiondrugs affect your aler
tness, perception and
reaction time. Consul
t with your doctor or
pharmacist before dr
iving while under the
influence of any of
these medications.

The original equipmen
t floor mat provided
with your vehicle was
specifically designed
for your vehicle. Always properly position the floor mat and assure it does not interfere with operation of the pedals. Always use theretaining clip on the driver’s floorboard to secure the floor mat. When used, this clip will help prevent the floor mat from moving for-ward and possibly interfering with the opera- tion of the pedals. To prevent the floor mat
