Allow the interior of the vehicle to
warm up before using the liquid crys-
tal information display. At extremely low temperatures, the information dis-
play monitor may respond slowly, and
display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between
the driver’s shifting and the new gear number appearing on the display.
This lag could cause the driver to
downshift again, causing rapid and excessive engine braking and possi-
bly an accident resulting in death or
injury.

1504-1. Before driving
WA R N I N G
●Always apply the parking brake,
shift the shift lever to P (vehicles
with a Multidrive), stop the engine and lock the vehicle.
Do not leave the vehicle unat-
tended while the engine is running. If the vehicle is parked with the shift
lever in P but the parking brake is
not set, the vehicl e may start to
move, possibly leading to an acci- dent.
●Do not touch the exhaust pipes while the engine is running or
immediately after turning the engine
off. Doing so may cause burns.
■When taking a nap in the vehicle
Always turn the engine off. Otherwise,
if you accidentally move the shift lever
or depress the accelerator pedal, this could cause an accident or fire due to
engine overheating. Additionally, if the
vehicle is parked in a poorly ventilated area, exhaust gases may collect and
enter the vehicle, leading to death or
a serious health hazard.
■When braking
●When the brakes are wet, drive more cautiously.
Braking distance increases when
the brakes are wet, and this may cause one side of the vehicle to
brake differently than the other
side. Also, the parking brake may not securely hold the vehicle.
●If the brake booster device does not operate, do not follow other vehi-
cles closely and avoid hills or sharp
turns that require braking. In this case, braking is still possible,
but the brake pedal should be
depressed more firmly than usual. Also, the braking distance will
increase. Have your brakes fixed
immediately.
●Do not pump the brake pedal if the engine stalls.
Each push on the brake pedal uses
up the reserve for the power-assisted brakes.
●The brake system consists of 2 indi-vidual hydraulic systems; if one of
the systems fails, the other will still
operate. In this case, the brake pedal should be depressed more
firmly than usual and the braking
distance will increase. Have your brakes fixed immediately.
■If the vehicle becomes stuck
Do not spin the wheels excessively
when a driven wheel is up in the air,
or the vehicle is stuck in sand, mud, etc. This may damage the driveline
components or propel the vehicle for-
ward or backward, causing an acci- dent.
NOTICE
■When driving the vehicle (vehi-
cles with a Multidrive)
●Do not depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time dur-
ing driving, as this may restrain the
engine output.
●Do not use the accelerator pedal or
depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time to hold the
vehicle on a hill.
■When driving the vehicle (vehi-
cles with a manual transmission)
●Do not depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time dur-
ing driving, as this may restrain the
engine output.
●Do not shift gears unless the clutch
pedal is fully depressed. After shift- ing, do not release the clutch pedal
abruptly. Doing so may damage the
clutch, transmission and gears.

4-1. Before driving
Driving
of your vehicle and trailer and
ensure that the vehicle-to-vehicle
distance is sufficient before execut-
ing lane changes.
■Transmission information
Multidrive
To maintain engine braking effi-
ciency and charging system perfor-
mance when using engine braking,
do not use the transmission in D,
must be in M and select gear step 4
or lower. ( P. 1 6 5 )
Manual transmission
Refrain from driving in 6th gear to
maintain the effectiveness of
engine braking and to maintain
charging system performance.
■If the engine overheats
Towing a loaded trailer up a long,
steep incline in temperatures
exceeding 30°C (85°F) may result
in the engine overheating. If the
engine coolant temperature gauge
indicates that the engine is over-
heating, turn the air conditioning off
immediately, leave the road and
stop the vehicle in a safe place.
( P.518)
■When parking the vehicle
Always place wheel chocks under
the wheels of both the vehicle and
trailer. Firmly set the parking brake
and shift the shift lever to P
(Multidrive) and 1 or R (manual
transmission).
WA R N I N G
Follow all the instructions described in
this section. Failure to do so could
cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
■Trailer towing precautions
When towing, make sure that none of
the weight limits are exceeded.
( P.153)
■Vehicle speed in towing
Observe the legal maximum speeds
for trailer towing.
■Before descending hills or long
declines
Reduce speed and downshift. How-
ever, never downshift suddenly while
descending steep or long downhill grades.
■Operation of the brake pedal
Do not hold the brake pedal
depressed often or for long periods of
time. Doing so may result in the brake overheating or reduce braking effects.
■To avoid accident or injury
●Vehicles with a compact spare tire:
Do not tow a trailer when the com-
pact spare tire is installed on your vehicle.
●Vehicles with the emergency tire puncture repair kit: Do not tow a
trailer when the tire installed is
repaired with the emergency tire puncture repair kit.
●Do not use the following systems when trailer towing.
• Cruise control (if equipped)
• Dynamic radar cruise control (if
equipped)
• Dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range (if equipped)
