WARNING
Never press the engine start/stop button while the
vehicle is in motion. This wouldresult in loss of directional
control and braking function,
which could cause an accident.
The anti-theft steering column lock is not a substitute for the
parking brake. Before leaving
the driver's seat, always make
sure the shift lever is engaged
in P (Park), set the parking
brake fully and shut the
engine off. Unexpected and
sudden vehicle movement
may occur if these precau-tions are not taken.
(Continued)(Continued)
Never reach for the enginestart/ stop button or any other
controls through the steering
wheel while the vehicle is in
motion. The presence of yourhand or arm in the area could
cause loss of vehicle control,an accident and serious bodi-
ly injury or death.
Do not place any movable objects around the driver's
seat as they may move while
driving, interfere with the driv-er and lead to an accident.

Moving up a steep grade from a
standing start
To move up a steep grade from a
standing start, depress the brake
pedal, shift the shift lever to D
(Drive). Select the appropriate gear
depending on load weight and steep-
ness of the grade, and release the
parking brake. Depress the accelera-
tor gradually while releasing the
service brakes.
WARNING
If your vehicle becomes stuck in
snow, mud, sand, etc., then you
may attempt to rock the vehicle
free by moving it forward and
backward. Do not attempt this
procedure if people or objects
are anywhere near the vehicle.
During the rocking operation the
vehicle may suddenly move for-
ward or backward as it becomes
unstuck, causing injury or dam-
age to nearby people or objects.WARNING
Always buckle-up! In a colli- sion, an unbelted occupant is
significantly more likely to be
seriously injured or killed than
a properly belted occupant.
Avoid high speeds when cor- nering or turning.
Do not make quick steering wheel movements, such as
sharp lane changes or fast,sharp turns.
The risk of rollover is greatly increased if you lose control of
your vehicle at highway speeds.
Loss of control often occurs if two or more wheels drop off the
roadway and the driver over-
steers to reenter the roadway.
In the event your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not
steer sharply. Instead, slow
down before pulling back into
the travel lanes.
Never exceed posted speed limits.

Driving your vehicle
Always use the parking brake. Donot depend on placing the trans-
mission in P (Park) to keep the car
from moving.
Exercise extreme caution when driving on a slippery surface. Be
especially careful when braking,
accelerating or shifting gears. On a
slippery surface, an abrupt change
in vehicle speed can cause the
drive wheels to lose traction and
the vehicle to go out of control.
Optimum vehicle performance and economy is obtained by smoothlydepressing and releasing the
accelerator pedal.

BRAKE SYSTEM
Power brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted
brakes that adjust automatically
through normal usage.
In the event that the power-assisted
brakes lose power because of a stalled
engine or some other reason, you can
still stop your vehicle by applying
greater force to the brake pedal than
you normally would. The stopping dis-
tance, however, will be longer.
When the engine is not running, the
reserve brake power is partially
depleted each time the brake pedal
is applied. Do not pump the brake
pedal when the power assist has
been interrupted.
Pump the brake pedal only when
necessary to maintain steering con-
trol on slippery surfaces.
(Continued) Always test your brakes in this fashion after driving
through deep water. To dry the
brakes, apply them lightly
while maintaining a safe for-
ward speed until brake per-
formance returns to normal.
Always, confirm the position of the brake and accelerator
pedal before driving. If you
don’t check the position of theaccelerator and brake pedal
before driving, you maydepress the accelerator
instead of the brake pedal. It
may cause a serious accident.WARNING - Brakes
Do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal. This will create abnormal high
brake temperatures, excessive
brake lining and pad wear, andincreased stopping distances.
When descending a long or steep hill, shift to a lower gear
and avoid continuous applica-
tion of the brakes. Continuousbrake application will cause
the brakes to overheat and
could result in a temporary
loss of braking performance.
Wet brakes may impair the vehicle’s ability to safely slow
down; the vehicle may alsopull to one side when the
brakes are applied. Applying
the brakes lightly will indicate
whether they have been
affected in this way.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) (If equipped) The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system is designed to stabi-
lize the vehicle during cornering
maneuvers. ESC checks where you
are steering and where the vehicle is
actually going. ESC applies the
brakes on individual wheels and
intervenes with the engine manage-
ment system to stabilize the vehicle. The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system is an electronic sys-
tem designed to help the driver main-
tain vehicle control under adverse
conditions. It is not a substitute for
safe driving practices. Factors includ-
ing speed, road conditions and driv-
er steering input can all affect
whether ESC will be effective in pre-
venting a loss of control. It is still your
responsibility to drive and corner at
reasonable speeds and to leave a
sufficient margin of safety.
When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear a “tik-tik’’
sound from the brakes, or feel a cor-
responding sensation in the brake
pedal. This is normal and it means
your ESC is active.
OKH052043
WARNING
Never drive too fast according to
the road conditions or too quick-
ly when cornering. Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) will not
prevent accidents. Excessive
speed in turns, abrupt maneu-
vers and hydroplaning on wetsurfaces can still result in seri-
ous accidents. Only a safe and
attentive driver can prevent acci-
dents by avoiding maneuvers
that cause the vehicle to lose
traction. Even with ESC
installed, always follow all the
normal precautions for driving -
including driving at safe speeds
for the conditions.

AVSM detects the distance from the
vehicle ahead with the sensor, to
warn you before collision and protect
you in certain hazardous situations
by using warning message, warning
sound and seat belt vibration. ❈ The seat belt vibration is a option-
al function.
If the AVSM senses the objectahead too near the vehicle and if dri-
ver's operating of the brake pedal or
the steering wheel should be need-
ed, the warning light illuminates.
Immediately reduce your speed.
If the AVSM senses more danger- ous, the warning sound also oper-
ates and the seat belt vibrates.
Immediately reduce your speed.
❈ The seat belt vibration is a option-
al function.
ADVANCED VEHICLE SAFTY MANAGMENT (AVSM) (IF EQUIPPED)CAUTION
Always check the road condi-
tions to prevent danger even ifthe warning light does not illu-minate, the warning sound does not operate or the acceleratorpedal/seat belt does not vibrate.

AEB Operation
Warning message
A warning message and chime will
sound when you need to use the
brake pedal or steering wheel due to a
sudden stop or lack of distance with
the vehicle ahead. The warning mes-
sages will vary according to the sever-
ity of the situation. Immediately reduce
your speed to prevent a collision.Brake operation
In a critical situation:
The brake assist system enters
standby mode to react promptly
when the driver operates the brakepedal.
The vehicle automatically reduces speed according to the severity ofthe situation.
- Rapidly reduces speed whenvehicle speed is under 80km/h
- Slowly reduces speed when vehi- cle speed is over 80km/h
If the driver uses the brake pedal to reduce vehicle speed, the brake
assist system operates to increase
braking efficiency.
If the driver presses down hard on the accelerator pedal or sharply
turns the steering wheel, the brakeassist system is canceled.
