vehicle is either moving or stationary. When the
vehicle is not in motion, shift the gearshift lever to
the “N” (Neutral) position before operating the drive

mode-selector. If operation is made with the
selector lever placed in any other position than “N”
(NEUTRAL) position, a gear noise may be
generated, with a possible failure to shift into a
proper gear. 4L 4H
Shifting of setting of the drive mode-selector between “2H” and “4H” should only be done at speeds below 100 km/h.
During driving, never attempt to shift from “4H” to “4L”.
When shifting from “2H” to “4H” in cold weather while the vehicle is in motion, the transfer gear may make some noise. In cold
weather, try to shift the gear while the vehicle is stopped.
When shifting between “4H” and “4L”, the transfer gear may make some noise.
When the drive mode-selector is set between “2H” and “4H” while the vehicle is stopped, the 2WD/4WD operation indicator
lamp blinks while the selection is in process. Drive slowly and normally after confirming that the lamp is illuminated. Refer to
“2WD/4WD operation indicator lamp and low-range indicator lamp”.
When the drive mode-selector is set between “2H” and “4H” while the cruise control is activated, the transfer gear may make
some noise.
When the drive mode-selector is set between“4H” and “4L” in cold weather, its selection may not complete. Return the drive
mode-selector to its previous position. After the engine is warmed up, make the range selection again.

A film of water can be formed on the
brake discs or brake drums and
prevent normal braking after driving in
heavy rain or through large puddles, or
after the vehicle is washed. If this
occurs, dry the brakes out by driving
slowly while lightly depressing the brake
pedal.
When driving downhill
It is important to take advantage of the
engine braking by shifting to a lower
shift position while driving on steep
downhill roads in order to prevent the
brakes from overheating.
239)
Brake pads and linings
Avoid hard braking situations. New
brakes need to be broken-in by
moderate use for the first 200 km.
The disc brakes are provided with a
warning device which emits a shrieking
metallic sound while braking if the brake
pads have reached their wear limit. If
you hear this sound, have the brake
pads replaced.
240)
IMPORTANT
148)Avoid driving habits that cause heavy
braking and never “ride” the brakes by
resting your foot on the brake pedal while
driving. It causes bake overheating and
fade.
WARNING
237)Do not turn off the engine while your
vehicle is in motion. If you turn off the
engine while driving, the power assistance
for the braking system will stop working
and your brakes will not work effectively.
238)If the power assist is lost or if either
brake hydraulic system stops working
properly, have your vehicle checked
immediately.
239)Do not leave any objects near the
brake pedal or let a floor mat slide under it;
doing so could prevent the full pedal stroke
that would be necessary in an emergency.
Make sure that the pedal can be operated
freely at all times. Make sure the floor mat
is securely held in place.
240)Driving with worn brake pads will
make it harder to stop, and can cause an
accident.
CRUISE CONTROL
(where provided)
Cruise control is an automatic speed
control system that keeps a set speed.
It can be activated at approximately
40 km/h or more.
241) 242)
149) 150) 151)
NOTE Cruise control may not be able
to keep your speed on uphills or
downhills. Your speed may decrease on
a steep uphill. You may use the
accelerator pedal if you want to stay at
your set speed. Your speed may
increase to more than the set speed on
183
a steep downhill. You have to use the
brake to control your speed. As a
result, the set speed driving is
deactivated.
