Driving Your Vehicle
Vehicle recognition
ORG3EV061022
Some vehicles in your lane cannot be
recognized by the sensor:
-Narrow vehicles such as motorcycles or
bicycles
-Vehicles offset to one side
-Slow-moving vehicles or sudden-
decelerating vehicles
-Stopped vehicles (When the vehicle
ahead drives away, the system may not
detect a stopped vehicle.)
-Vehicles with small rear profile such as
trailers with no loads
A vehicle ahead cannot be recognized
correctly by the sensor if any of following
occurs:
-When the vehicle is pointing upwards
due to overloading in the luggage
compartment.
-While the steering wheel is operating.
-When driving to one side of the lane.
-When driving on narrow lanes or on
curves.
-Apply the brake or accelerator pedal if
necessary.
WARNING
When using the Smart Recuperation
System take the following precautions:

[If an emergency stop is necessary,
you must apply the brakes.

[Keep a safe distance according to
road conditions and vehicle speed. If
the vehicle to vehicle distance is too
close during a high-speed driving, a
serious collision may result.

[Always maintain sufficient braking
distance and decelerate your vehicle
by applying the brakes if necessary.

[The Smart Recuperation System
cannot recognize a stopped vehicle,
pedestrians or an oncoming vehicle.
Always look ahead cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sudden
situations from occurring.

[Vehicles moving in front of you with
a frequent lane changes may cause
a delay in the system's reaction or
may cause the system to react to a
vehicle actually in an adjacent lane.
Always drive cautiously to prevent
unexpected and sudden situations
from occurring.

[The Smart Recuperation System
may not recognize complex driving
situations so always pay attention to
driving conditions and control your
vehicle speed.
NOTICE
The Smart Recuperation System may
not operate temporarily due to:

[Electrical interference

[Modifying the suspension

[Differences of tire abrasion or tire
pressure

[Installing different type of tires

6-62
Driving Your Vehicle
The Loading Information Label
ORG3EV061050N
The label located on the driver’s door
sill gives the original tire size, cold
tire pressures recommended for your
vehicle, the number of people that
can be in your vehicle and vehicle
capacity weight.
Vehicle capacity weight
882 lbs. (400 kg)
Vehicle capacity weight is the
maximum combined weight of
occupants and cargo. If your
vehicle is equipped with a trailer,
the combined weight includes the
tongue load.
Seating capacity
Total : 5 persons (Front seat : 2
persons, Rear seat : 3 persons)
Seating capacity is the maximum
number of occupants including
a driver, your vehicle may carry.
However, the seating capacity may
be reduced based upon the weight
of all of the occupants, and the
weight of the cargo being carried or
towed. Do not overload the vehicle
as there is a limit to the total weight,
or load limit including occupants and
cargo, the vehicle can carry.
Towing capacity
We do not recommend using this
vehicle for trailer towing.
Cargo capacity
The cargo capacity of your vehicle
will increase or decrease depending
on the weight and the number of
occupants and the tongue load,
if your vehicle is equipped with a
trailer.

6-63
06
Steps for determining correct load
limit
1. Locate the statement "The
combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg or XXX lbs." on your
vehicle's placard.
2. Determine the combined weight
of the driver and passengers that
will be riding in your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of
the driver and passengers from
XXX kg or XXX lbs.
4. The resulting figure equals
the available amount of cargo
and luggage load capacity. For
example, if the "XXX" amount
equals 1400 lbs. and there will
be five 150 lb passengers in your
vehicle, the amount of available
cargo and luggage load capacity
is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 x 150) =
650 lbs.)
5. Determine the combined weight
of luggage and cargo being
loaded on the vehicle. That
weight may not safely exceed the
available cargo and luggage load
capacity calculated in Step 4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a
trailer, load from your trailer will
be transferred to your vehicle.
Consult this manual to determine
how this reduces the available
cargo and luggage load capacity
of your vehicle.
WARNING
Do not overload the vehicle as
there is a limit to the total weight,
or load limit, including occupants
and cargo, the vehicle can carry.
Overloading can shorten the life
of the vehicle. If the GVWR or
the GAWR is exceeded, parts on
the vehicle can be broken and it
can change the handling of your
vehicle. These could cause you
to lose control and result in an
accident.

6-65
06
Certification label
OBH059070
The certification label is located on
the driver's door sill at the center
pillar and shows the maximum
allowable weight of the fully loaded
vehicle. This is called the GVWR
(Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). The
GVWR includes the weight of the
vehicle, all occupants, fuel and
cargo.
This label also tells you the maximum
weight that can be supported by the
front and rear axles, called Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR).
The total weight of the vehicle,
including all occupants, accessories,
cargo, and trailer tongue load must
not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle
Weight Rating (GAWR). To find out
the actual loads on your front and
rear axles, you need to go to a weigh
station and weigh your vehicle. Be
sure to spread out your load equally
on both sides of the centerline.
WARNING
Overloading

[Never exceed the GVWR for your
vehicle, the GAWR for either the
front or rear axle and vehicle
capacity weight. Exceeding these
ratings can affect your vehicle's
handling and braking ability, and
cause an accident.

[Do not overload your vehicle.
Overloading your vehicle can
cause heat buildup in your
vehicle's tires and possible
tire failure, increased stopping
distances and poor vehicle
handling-all of which may result
in a crash.
NOTICE
Overloading your vehicle may cause
damage. Repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Do not
overload your vehicle.

6-66
Driving Your Vehicle
WARNING
If you carry items inside your
vehicle (for example, suitcases,
tools, packages, or anything else),
they are moving as fast as the
vehicle. If you have to stop or turn
quickly, or if there is a crash, the
items will keep going and can cause
an injury if they strike the driver or a
passenger.

[Put items in the cargo area of
your vehicle. Try to spread the
weight evenly.

[Do not stack items - like suitcases
- inside the vehicle above the
tops of the seats.

[Do not leave an unsecured child
restraint in your vehicle.

[When you carry something inside
the vehicle, secure it.
TRAILER TOWING
We do not recommend using this vehicle
for trailer towing.
