5-5. Driving tips
Driving
event that off-road driving cannot
be avoided, please observe the fol-
lowing precautions to help avoid
the areas prohibited to vehicles.
 Drive your vehicle only in areas
where off-road vehicles are per-
mitted to travel.
 Respect private property. Get
owner’s permission before enter-
ing private property.
 Do not enter areas that are
closed. Honor gates, barriers
and signs that restrict travel.
 Stay on established roads. When
conditions are wet, driving tech-
niques should be changed or
travel delayed to prevent dam-
age to roads.
WARNING
■Off-road driving precautions
Always observe the following precau- tions to minimize the risk of death or serious injury or damage to your vehi-
cle:
●Drive carefully when off the road. Do not take unnecessary risks by
driving in dangerous places.
●Do not grip the steering wheel
spokes when driving off-road. A bad bump could jerk the wheel and injure your hands. Keep both hands
and especially your thumbs on the outside of the rim.
●Always check your brakes for effec-tiveness immediately after driving in sand, mud, water or snow.
●After driving through tall grass, mud, rock, sand, water, etc., check that there is no grass, bush, paper,
rags, stone, sand, etc. adhering or trapped to the underbody. Clear off any such matter from the under-
body. If the vehicle is used with these materials trapped or adhering to the underbody, a breakdown or
fire could occur.
●When driving off-road or in rugged
terrain, do not drive at excessive speeds, jump, make sharp turns, strike objects, etc. This may cause
loss of control or vehicle rollover causing death or serious injury. You are also risking expensive damage
to your vehicle’s suspension and chassis.
NOTICE
■To prevent water damage
Take all necessary safety measures to ensure that water damage to the traction battery, EV system or other
components does not occur.
●Water entering the motor compart- ment may cause severe damage to
the EV system.
●Water entering the transmission will
cause deterioration in transmission quality. The vehicle may not be driv-able.
●Water can wash the grease from wheel bearings, causing rusting
and premature failure, and may also enter the transmission case, reducing the gear oil’s lubricating
qualities.
■When you drive through water
If driving through water, such as when crossing shallow streams, first check the depth of the water and the bottom
of the riverbed for firmness. Drive slowly and avoid deep water.

7-1. Maintenance and care
7-1.Mainte nance a nd care
Working from top to bottom, lib-
erally apply water to the vehicle
body, wheel wells and underside
of the vehicle to remove any dirt
and dust.
 Wash the vehicle body using a
sponge or soft cloth, such as a
chamois.
 For hard-to-remove marks, use
car wash soap and rinse thor-
oughly with water.
 Wipe away any water.
 Wax the vehicle when the water-
proof coating deteriorates.
If water does not bead on a clean sur-
face, apply wax when the vehicle body
is cool.
■Self-restoring coat
The vehicle body has a self-restoring coating that is resistant to small surface scratches caused in a car wash, etc.
●The coating lasts for 5 to 8 years from when the vehicle is delivered from the
plant.
●The restoration time differs depending
on the depth of the scratch and out- side temperature. The restoration time may become shorter when the coating
is warmed by applying warm water.
●Deep scratches caused by keys,
coins, etc., cannot be restored.
●Do not use wax that contain abra- sives.
■Automatic car washes
●Before washing the vehicle:• Fold the mirrors
• Turn off the power back door (if equipped)
Start washing from the front of the vehi-
cle. Extend the mirrors before driving.
●Brushes used in automatic car washes may scratch the vehicle sur-face, parts (wheel, etc.) and harm
your vehicle’s paint.
●Rear spoiler (if equipped) may not be
washable in some automatic car washes. There may also be an increased risk of damage to vehicle.
●When the shift position needs to be held in N, refer to P.251.
■High pressure car washes
As water may enter the cabin, do not bring the nozzle tip near the gaps around the doors or perimeter of the
windows, or spray these areas continu- ously.
■Note for a smart entry & start sys-tem
●If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In that case, follow the following correction procedures to
wash the vehicle: • Place the key in a position 2 m (6 ft.) or more separate from the vehicle
while the vehicle is being washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-sav- ing mode to disable the smart entry & start system ( P.204)
●If the electronic key is inside the vehi- cle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a buzzer may sound outside the vehicle and “Key Detected In Vehicle” may be shown

●To remove oily deposits, use alcohol wet wipes or a similar product.
WARNING
■When washing the vehicle
Do not apply water to the inside of the
motor compartment. Doing so may cause the electrical components, etc. to catch fire.
■When cleaning the windshield (vehicles with rain-sensing wind-
shield wipers)
