uuWhen Driving uDual Clutch Transmission
Driving
If there is a strong impact with something under the vehicle, stop in a safe location.
Check the underside of the vehicle for damage or any fluid leaks.
If any of these components are damaged or loose, the stability, handling, and
powertrain cooling performance of the vehicle may be adversely affected.
Dual Clutch Transmission
As with a conventional gasoline-powered ve hicle with an automatic transmission,
this vehicle will creep.
Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed when stopped.
The accelerator pedal features a kick down switch. Quickly depressing the
accelerator pedal while driving may cause th e transmission to drop to a lower gear,
subsequently increasing vehicle speed. De press the accelerator pedal carefully,
especially when driving uphill, on slippery roads, and curves.
■Other Precautions
■Creeping
■Kickdown
1Precautions While Driving
Do not select
(N while driving as you will lose engine
braking (and accelera tion) performance.
Avoid hard braking for the first 200 miles (300 km).
You should also follow this recommendation when
the brake pads are replaced.
Models with iron brake discs
1 Dual Clutch Transmission
The DCT will not operate when it is extremely cold. If
the vehicle has been parked in extremely cold
conditions, after you start th e engine, wait until it
gets warm. Keep your vehicle parked until the
READY indicator comes on.
