3285-6. Driving tips
Owners Manual_USA_M62064_en
Perform the following according
to the driving conditions:
Do not try to forcibly open a
window or move a wiper that
is frozen. Pour warm water
over the frozen area to melt
the ice. Wipe away the water
immediately to prevent it from
freezing.
To ensure proper operation of
the climate control system
fan, remove any snow that
has accumulated on the air
inlet vents in front of the wind-
shield.
Check for and remove any
excess ice or snow that may
have accumulated on the
exterior lights, outside rear
view mirrors, windows, vehi-
cle’s roof, chassis, around the
tires or on the brakes.
Remove any snow or mud
from the bottom of your shoes
before getting in the vehicle.
Accelerate the vehicle slowly,
keep a safe distance between
you and the vehicle ahead, and
drive at a reduced speed suit-
able to road conditions.
Turn automatic mode of the
parking brake off. Otherwise,
the parking brake may freeze
and not be able to be
released automatically.
Also, avoid using the following
as the parking brake may
operate automatically, even if
automatic mode is off.
• Brake hold system
Park the vehicle and shift the
shift position to P without set-
ting the parking brake. The
parking brake may freeze up,
preventing it from being
released. If the vehicle is
parked without setting the
parking brake, make sure to
block the wheels.
Failure to do so may be dan-
gerous because it may cause
the vehicle to move unexpect-
edly, possibly leading to an
accident.
When the parking brake is in
automatic mode, release the
parking brake after shifting
the shift position to P.
( P.192)
If the vehicle is parked without
setting the parking brake,
confirm that the shift position
cannot be moved out of P.
If the vehicle is left parked
with the brakes damp in cold
temperatures, there is a pos-
sibility of the brakes freezing.

Working from top to bottom,
liberally 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
thoroughly with water.
Wipe away any water.
Wax the vehicle when the
waterproof coating deterio-
rates.
If water does not bead on a clean
surface, apply wax when the vehi-
cle body is cool.
■Self-restoring coat
The vehicle body has a self-restor-
ing 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 t he depth of the
scratch and outside 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 contains
abrasives.
■Automatic car washes
●Before washing the vehicle:
• Fold the mirrors
Start washing from the front of the

washes may scratch the vehicle
surface, parts (wheel, etc.) and
harm your vehicle’s paint.
●When the shift position needs to
be held in N, refer to P.188.
■High pressure car washes
●As water may enter the cabin, do
not bring the nozzle tip near the
gaps around the doors or perime-
ter of the windows, or spray these
areas continuously.

remove condensation build up.
■Plated portions
If dirt cannot be removed, clean the
parts as follows:
●Use a soft cloth dampened with an
approximately 5% solution of neu-
tral detergent and water to clean
the dirt off.
●Wipe the surface with a dry, soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture.
●To remove oily deposits, use alco-
hol wet wipes or a similar product.
■Roof film (vehicles with elec-
tronic sunshade)
