Driving
COROLLA_TMMMS_TMMC_U (OM12J84U)
CAUTION
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
nWhen driving on slippery road surfaces
lSudden braking, acceleration and steering may cause tire slippage and
reduce your ability to control the vehicle.
l Sudden acceleration, engine braking due to shifting, or changes in engine
speed could cause the vehicle to skid.
l After driving through a puddle, lightly depress the brake pedal to make
sure that the brakes are functioning properly. Wet brake pads may prevent
the brakes from functioning properly. If the brakes on only one side are wet
and not functioning properly, steering control may be affected.
n When shifting the shift lever
lExcept vehicles with a manual transmission: Do not let the vehicle roll
backward while the shift lever is in a driving position, or roll forward while
the shift lever is in R.
Doing so may cause the engine to stall or lead to poor brake and steering
performance, resulting in an accident or damage to the vehicle.
l Except vehicles with a manual transmission: Do not shift the shift lever to
P while the vehicle is moving.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
l Do not shift the shift lever to R while the vehicle is moving forward.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
l Do not shift the shift lever to a driving position while the vehicle is moving
backward.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
l Moving the shift lever to N while the vehicle is moving will disengage the
engine from the transmission. Engine braking is not available when N is
selected.
l Except vehicles with a manual transmission: Be careful not to shift the shift
lever with the accelerator pedal depressed. Shifting the shift lever to a
gear other than P or N may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the
vehicle that may cause an accident and result in death or serious injury.
