if unnecessary hard stops are avoided
in the
first
1,000 km (600 miles) may

WARNING
Be careful when applying sudden
regenerative braking on slippery
surfaces:
The sudden change in tyre speed could
cause the tyres to skid. This could lead
to loss of vehicle control and an
accident.
When driving on ice or in water, snow,
mud, sand, or similar hazards:
x
Be cautious and allow extra distance
for braking.
x
Avoid sudden braking and sudden
manoeuvring.
x
Do not pump the brakes. Continue
to press down on the brake pedal.
Refer to Antilock Brake System (ABS)
on page 4-65.
x
For more traction in starting on
slippery surfaces such as ice or
packed snow, use sand, rock salt,
chains, carpeting, or other nonslip
material under the front wheels.
NOTE
Use snow chains only on the front
wheels.
