Additional precautions for vehi-
cles equipped with a CVT
It is recommended the “D” position on slopes
or at low speed.
Use the sports mode in mountainous areas in
order to make better use of engine braking
and to assist the brake system. However, be
sure that the speed does not exceed the maxi-
mum speed limit for the selected shift posi-
tion.
Overheating
This will normally occur as a result of some
mechanical failure. If your vehicle should
overheat, stop and check for a loose or bro-
ken water pump/alternator drive belt, a
blocked radiator air intake or a low coolant
level. If these items are satisfactory the over-
heating could be caused by a number of me-
chanical causes that would have to be
checked at a competent service centre.
CAUTION
l
If the engine overheats, please refer to the
“Engine overheating” section of “For emer-
gencies” prior to taking any corrective ac-
tion.
CAUTION
l
On vehicles equipped with CVT, if the
warning display is showing, the temperature
of the CVT fluid is high.
Read the reference page and take the re-
quired measures.
Refer to “When a malfunction occurs in the
CVT” on page 6-25.
