CAUTION
• When driving up a slope area, kick
down may function and the engine
revolution may increase. Keep the
brake pedal fully depressed while your
vehicle is stopped on the slope. Once
you release your foot from the brake
pedal, quickly accelerate your vehicle.
It is dangerous if the vehicle moves
backward by the force of inertia on a
slope, etc.
• When driving up a slope area, press
the accelerator slowly to maintain the
speed. Avoid pressing the accelerator
pedal rapidly. Kick down mode may
cause the engine revolution suddenly
increased.
• When driving on slippery road or
curve, avoid pressing the accelerator
pedal rapidly. Kick down may cause
the engine revolution to increase and
your car can easily slip and fail to pass
through the curve securely.
• Follow the maximum speed for every
shift gear.
• Do not rest your feet on the brake pedal
as it may cause the brake system to
overheat and reduce friction of the
brake system.
w WARNING
• When performing the
operation, move the shift lever
without pressing the shift lever
button in order to avoid wrong
operation. If the shift lever button
is always pressed during the
operation, the shift lever may be
inadvertently placed in P, R or 2
range, resulting in an unexpected
accident.
• Do not place the shift lever in the
P range before the vehicle comes
to a complete stop. Also, do not
place the shift lever in the N range
when driving; in the R range when
moving forward; or in the D4,
3 and 2 ranges when moving
backward. Failure to observe
this warning may damage the
transmission or could cause loss
of control, leading to an accident.
• Be careful when downshifting on
slippery or wet road. Failure to do
so could cause wheel lock or skid,
and a loss of control or an accident.
CAUTION
If your vehicle exceeds the maximum
allowable speeds given on the following
table, do not down shift. If this caution is
neglected, the engine could be damaged.
