PRE-DRIVING OPERATIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Getting In and Out of the Vehicle
When getting in or out of the vehicle, carefully check that the area around the vehicle is
safe, hold the grip (if equipped), and place your foot on the side step (if equipped).
CAUTION
• When getting in or out of the vehicle, make sure you use the grip and step, etc.
to always support yourself from at least three points. Furthermore, do not try to
jump in or out of the vehicle, as doing so could cause unexpected accidents or
injuries.
• In models with side steps, to avoid slipping over, do not step on the non-
grooved area of the steps.
• In models with side steps, rain and snow can cause the side step to become
very slippery. Therefore, always remove snow and ice from your shoes and the
side step, and be careful not to slip when getting in and out of the vehicle.
• Getting in or out of the vehicle with oily or greasy hands or shoes could cause
you to slip. Always thoroughly clean grease etc. from your hands and shoes
before getting in or out of the vehicle.
ADVICE
• Do not hold parts other than the grip when getting in or out of the vehicle. Doing
so may cause damage to the vehicle or injuries to yourself or others.
