Good driving practices

  • Never shift from P (Park) or N (Neutral) to another gear whilst depressing the accelerator pedal.

  • Never shift to P (Park) whilst the vehicle is moving.

  • Always bring the vehicle to a complete stop before shifting to R (Reverse) or D (Drive).

  • Do not ride the brakes. This may cause overheating and reduced braking performance.

  • When driving downhill, slow down and use the regenerative braking system to help decelerate the vehicle.

  • Always apply the parking brake when parking. Do not rely solely on P (Park) to keep the vehicle from moving.

  • Use extreme caution when driving on slippery surfaces.

  • Avoid abrupt braking, accelerating, or shifting, as sudden changes in speed may cause loss of traction and vehicle control.

  • For optimal performance and efficiency, smoothly depress and release the accelerator pedal.

WARNING

  • When driving uphill or downhill, always shift to D (Drive) to move forward or R (Reverse) to move backward.

  • Check the gear position on the instrument cluster before driving. Driving in a direction opposite to the selected gear may shut off the vehicle and impair braking performance, leading to a dangerous situation.

  • Always wear your seat belt. In a collision, unbelted occupants are at a significantly higher risk of serious injury or death.

  • Avoid high speeds when cornering or turning.

  • Do not make abrupt steering movements, such as sharp lane changes or fast turns. The risk of rollover increases significantly if you lose control at highway speeds.

  • Loss of control often occurs when two or more wheels drop off the roadway and the driver oversteers whilst attempting to return.

  • If your vehicle leaves the roadway, do not steer sharply. Slow down before reentering the road.

  • Never exceed posted speed limits.

  • If your vehicle is stuck in snow, mud, or sand, you may attempt to rock the vehicle free by shifting between D (Drive) and R (Reverse). Do not attempt this procedure if people or objects are near the vehicle. The vehicle may suddenly move when freed, causing injury or damage.
