Before entering the vehicle
• Be sure all windows, outside mir-ror(s), and outside lights are clean
and unobstructed.
• Remove frost, snow, or ice.
• Visually check the tyres for uneven wear and damage.
• Check under the vehicle for any sign of leaks.
• Be sure there are no obstacles behind you if you intend to back up.
Before starting
• Make sure the bonnet, the boot,and the doors are securely closed
and locked.

• Adjust the inside and outside rearview mirrors.
• Verify all the lights work.
• Fasten your seatbelt. Check that all passengers have fastened their
seatbelts.
• Check the gauges and indicators in the instrument panel and the mes-
sages on the instrument display
when the ignition switch is in the
ON position. • Check that any items you are car-

tened down securely.
BEFORE DRIVING
NEVER drink or take drugs and
drive.
Drinking or taking drugs and
driving is dangerous and may
result in an accident and SERI-
OUS INJURY or DEATH.
Drunk driving is the number one
contributor to the highway death
toll each year. Even a small
amount of alcohol will affect your
reflexes, perceptions and judg-
ment. Just one drink can reduce
your ability to respond to chang-
ing conditions and emergencies
and your reaction time gets
worse with each additional drink.
Driving whilst under the influ-
ence of drugs is as dangerous or
more dangerous than driving
under the influence of alcohol.
You are much more likely to have
a serious accident if you drink or
take drugs and drive. If you are
drinking or taking drugs, don’t
drive. Do not ride with a driver
who has been drinking or taking
drugs. Choose a designated driv-
er or call a taxi.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS
INJURY or DEATH, take the fol-
lowing precautions:
•ALWAYS wear your seat belt.
All passengers must be prop-
erly belted whenever the vehi-
cle is moving. For more
details, refer to “Seat Belts” in
chapter 2.
•Always drive defensively.
Assume other drivers or pedes-
trians may be careless and
make mistakes.
•Stay focused on the task of
driving. Driver distraction can
cause accidents.
•Leave plenty of space between
you and the vehicle in front of
you.

ESC operation
ESC ON condition
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the ESC and the ESC OFF
indicator lights illuminate for approxi-
mately three seconds and goes off,
then the ESC is turned on.
When operating
When the ESC is in opera-
tion, the ESC indicator light
blinks:
• When you apply your brakes under conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear sounds from
the brakes, or feel a corresponding
sensation in the brake pedal. This is
normal and it means your ESC is
active.
• When the ESC activates, the engine may not respond to the
accelerator as it does under routine
conditions.
• If the Cruise Control was in use when the ESC activates, the Cruise
Control automatically disengages.
The Cruise Control can be reen-
gaged when the road conditions
allow. See “Cruise Control System”
later in this chapter. (if equipped)
Never drive too fast for the road
conditions or too quickly when
cornering. The ESC system will
not prevent accidents.
Excessive speed in turns, abrupt
manoeuvres, and hydroplaning
on wet surfaces can result in
severe accidents.WARNING
