Manual DescriptionDo not drive with the hood raised, as doing so may block the driver's vision, possibly causing an accident. Do not close the hood with force or apply load to the lifters, as doing so may damage the lifters and prevent the system from operating properly. Do not modify the suspension, as changes made to the vehicle height may prevent the system from operating properly.
Adjust the seatback as upright as possible and always move the seat as far back as possible because the front passenger airbag could inflate with considerable speed and force. This will prevent it from injuring passengers in the event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or accident. If such a situation cannot be avoided, park the vehicle in an open space and ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter the vehicle interior.
Sounds may be heard from the transmission when the gasoline engine starts or stops, when driving at low speeds, or during idling. Sounds may be heard due to regenerative braking when the brake pedal is depressed or as the accelerator pedal is released. If a warning message is shown on the multi-information display, read the message and follow the instructions.
