roadside trees.• Your vehicle passes
an oncoming vehicle
suddenly on a bend with poor visibility.• Another vehicle crosse

• Movement or direction of a vehicle in frontor oncoming vehicle.• Only right or left exte
rior light of a vehicle
in front or oncoming

ing.• A vehicle in front or
oncoming vehicle is a
motorcycle.• Road conditions (gradient, bends and roadsurface).• The number of occupants and luggage load.The automatic high beam system recognisesenvironmental conditi
ons by sensing a light
source ahead of your vehicle. Therefore, youmay feel like someth
ing is not quite right
when the headlight beams are switched auto-matically.NOTE
The system may not de
tect a light vehicle
such as a bicycle.The system may not detect an ambientbrightness precisely. Th

Trailer towing
Driving safety 6-15

You’ll need more passing distance up aheadwhen you’re towing a trailer. And, becauseyou’re a good deal longer, you’ll need to gomuch farther beyond the passed vehiclebefore you can return to your lane.Hold the bottom of the steering wheel withone hand. Then, to move the trailer to the left,just move that hand to the left. To move thetrailer to the right, move your hand to theright. Always back up sl
owly and, if possible,
have someone guide you.When you’re turning with a trailer, makewider than normal turns to help prevent thetrailer from striking shoulders, curbs, roadsigns, trees or other objects.
Avoid jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signalwell in advance.Towing a trailer puts additional burden on theengine and transaxle,
which may cause over-
heating. Following ar
e some suggestions to
reduce overheating:When towing at high al
titudes, engine coolant
and automatic transaxle oil will overheat at alower temperature than at normal altitudes.If you turn your engine off immediately aftertowing at high altitude
on steep uphill grades,
your vehicle may show
signs similar to over-
heating. To avoid this
, let the engine run
while parked (preferably on level ground)with the automatic transaxle in the “P”turning the engine off.
If the engine coolant temperature indica-tor flashes on the information screen inthe multi-information display or theengine power drops suddenly, refer to“Engine overheati
ng” on page 8-4.
If the warning display or warningdisplay illuminates, re
fer to “Warning dis-
play” on page 5-70, 5-78.
Reduce speed and downshift before you startdown a long or steep downgrade. If you don’tdownshift, over using the brakes can causereduced brake efficiency.You can tow in “D” (DRIVE) position. Youmay want to shift the selector lever to the 3rdor a lower position, under heavy loads or hillyconditions.Always place chocks or blocks under both thevehicle and trailer wheels when parking. Besure that the parking brake is firmly set andthat the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK)position. Avoid parki
ng on a hill with a
trailer, but if it cannot be avoided, do so onlyafter performing the following:
Passing Backing up Making turns
CAUTIONMaking sharp turns while towing a trailercould cause the
trailer to come in contact
with the vehicle. Your
vehicle could be dam-
aged. Avoid making sharp turns while tow-ing a trailer.
