Precautions to observe when

using wipers and washers

E00507601444

l

If  the  moving  wipers  become  blocked
partway through a sweep by ice or other
deposits  on  the  glass,  the  wipers  may
temporarily stop operating to prevent the
motor  from  overheating.  In  this  case,
park the vehicle in a safe place, turn the
ignition  switch  to  the  “LOCK”  position
or  put  the  operation  mode  in  OFF,  and
then remove the ice or other deposits.
The wipers will start operating again af-
ter  the  wiper  motor  cools  down,  so
check that the wipers operate before us-
ing them.

l

Do not use the wipers when the glass is
dry.
They  may  scratch  the  glass  surface  and
the blades wear out prematurely.

l

Before using the wipers in cold weather,
check  that  the  wiper  blades  are  not  fro-
zen onto the glass. The motor may burn
out if the wipers are used with the blades
frozen onto the glass.

l

Avoid using the washer continuously for
more  than  20  seconds.  Do  not  operate
the  washer  when  the  fluid  reservoir  is
empty.
Otherwise, the motor may burn out.

l

Periodically  check  the  level  of  washer
fluid  in  the  reservoir  and  refill  if  re-
quired.
During  cold  weather,  add  a  recommen-
ded  washer  solution  that  will  not  freeze
in the washer reservoir. Failure to do so
could  result  in  loss  of  washer  function
and  frost  damage  to  the  system  compo-
nents.

Economical driving

E00600102624

For economical driving, there are some tech-
nical  requirements  that  have  to  be  met.  The
prerequisite  for  low  fuel  consumption  is  a
properly adjusted engine. In order to achieve
longer  life  of  the  vehicle  and  the  most  eco-
nomical  operation,  we  recommend  you  to
have the vehicle checked at regular intervals
in accordance with the service standards.
Fuel economy and generation of exhaust gas
and  noise  are  highly  influenced  by  personal
driving habits as well as the particular operat-
ing  conditions.  The  following  points  should
be  observed  in  order  to  minimize  wear  of
brakes, tyres and engine as well as to reduce
environmental pollution.

Accelerating and decelerating

Drive according to the traffic conditions and
avoid  sudden  starts,  sudden  acceleration  and
sudden  braking,  as  they  will  increase  fuel
consumption.

Shifting

Shift only at an appropriate speed and engine
speed.  Always  use  the  highest  shift  position
possible.

Selecting the 4WD drive mode

(4WD vehicles)

The  drive  mode-selector  should  be  set  to
“2WD”  when  driving  on  normal  roads  and
express  ways  to  obtain  best  possible  fuel
economy.

City traffic

Frequent  starting  and  stopping  increases  the
average  fuel  consumption.  Use  roads  with
smooth traffic flow whenever possible. When
driving  on  congested  roads,  avoid  use  of  a
low shift position at high engine speeds.

Idling

The  vehicle  consumes  fuel  even  during
idling. Avoid extended idling whenever pos-
sible.

Speed

At  higher  vehicle  speed,  more  fuel  is  con-
sumed.  Avoid  driving  at  full  speed.  Even  a
slight  release  of  the  accelerator  pedal  will
save a significant amount of fuel.

Tyre inflation pressure

Check  the  tyre  inflation  pressures  at  regular
intervals. Low tyre inflation pressure increa-
ses  road  resistance  and  fuel  consumption.  In
addition,  low  tyre  pressures  adversely  affect
tyre wear and driving stability.

Cargo loads

Do not drive with unnecessary articles in the
luggage compartment. Especially during city
driving  where  frequent  starting  and  stopping
is necessary, the increased weight of the ve-
hicle will greatly affect fuel consumption. Al-
so avoid driving with unnecessary luggage or
carriers, etc., on the roof; the increased air re-
sistance will increase fuel consumption.

Cold engine starting

Starting  of  a  cold  engine  consumes  more
fuel.
Unnecessary fuel consumption is also caused
by  keeping  a  hot  engine  running.  After  the
engine  is  started,  commence  driving  as  soon
as possible.

Air conditioning

The use of the air conditioning will increase
the fuel consumption.

Driving, alcohol and drugs

E00600200070

Driving  after  drinking  alcohol  is  one  of  the
most frequent causes of accidents.
Your  driving  ability  can  be  seriously  im-
paired even with blood alcohol levels far be-
low  the  legal  minimum.  If  you  have  been
drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated
non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or
use public transportation.
Drinking coffee or taking a cold shower will
not make you sober.
Similarly,  prescription  and  nonprescription
drugs affect your alertness, perception and re-
action  time.  Consult  with  your  doctor  or
pharmacist before driving while under the in-
fluence of any of these medications.

WARNING

l

Safe driving techniques

E00600300446

Driving  safety  and  protection  against  injury
cannot be fully ensured. However, we recom-
mend that you pay extra attention to the fol-
lowing:

Seat belts

Before  starting  the  vehicle,  make  sure  that
you  and  your  passengers  have  fastened  your
seat belts.

Floor mats

WARNING

l

Keep  floor  mats  clear  of  the  pedals  by
correctly laying floor mats that are suita-
ble for the vehicle.
To  prevent  the  floor  mats  from  slipping
out of position, securely retain them using
the hook etc.
Note that laying a floor mat over a pedal
or laying one floor mat on top of another
can obstruct pedal operation and lead to a
serious accident.

Carrying children in the vehi-

cle

l

Never  leave  your  vehicle  unattended
with the key and children inside the ve-
hicle.  Children  may  play  with  the  driv-
ing controls and this could lead to an ac-
cident.

l

Make  sure  that  infants  and  small  chil-
dren  are  properly  restrained  in  accord-
ance  with  the  laws  and  regulations,  and
for  maximum  protection  in  case  of  an
accident.

l

Prevent children from playing in the lug-
gage compartment. It is quite dangerous
to allow them to play there while the ve-
hicle is moving.

Loading luggage

When loading luggage, be careful not to load
above  the  height  of  seats.  This  is  dangerous
not only because rearward vision will be ob-
structed, but also the luggage may be projec-
ted  into  the  passenger  compartment  under
hard braking.

l

When you intend to apply the parking brake,
firmly press the brake pedal to bring the ve-
hicle  to  a  complete  stop  before  pulling  the
parking brake lever.
Pulling the parking brake lever with the ve-
hicle  moving  could  make  the  rear  wheels
lock  up,  thereby  making  the  vehicle  unsta-
ble.  It  could  also  make  the  parking  brake
malfunction.

NOTE

l

Apply  sufficient  force  to  the  parking  brake
lever to hold the vehicle stationary after the
foot brake is released.

l

If the parking brake does not hold the vehi-
cle stationary after the foot brake is released,
have your vehicle checked immediately.

ped with M/T, or set the selector lever to “P”
(PARK)  position  for  vehicles  equipped  with
A/T or CVT.

Parking on a hill

To  prevent  the  vehicle  from  rolling,  follow
these procedures:

Parking on a downhill slope

Turn  the  front  wheels  towards  the  kerb  and
move the vehicle forward until the kerb side
wheel gently touches the kerb.
On  vehicles  equipped  with  M/T,  apply  the
parking  brake  and  place  the  gearshift  lever
into the “R” (Reverse) position.

On vehicles equipped with A/T, CVT, apply
the parking brake and place the selector lever
into the “P” (PARK) position.
If necessary, apply chocks to wheels.

Parking on an uphill slope

Turn  the  front  wheels  away  from  the  kerb
and move the vehicle back until the kerb side
wheel gently touches the kerb.
On  vehicles  equipped  with  M/T,  apply  the
parking  brake  and  place  the  gearshift  lever
