When travelling in wet or slippery
conditions, use care when accelerating
and braking. After driving through deep
water (over 5 cm’s deep) gently apply the
brakes whilst moving to dry them.
When travelling downhill, take extra care
not to use the brakes too much. Excessive
use can cause the fluid to boil and
become ineffective. If possible use the
engine brake to keep the speed at a steady
pace.

Only use the right foot to operate
automatic vehicle, don’t operate left and
right foot together for this could cause
excessive wear on the brake pads.
The vehicle will only start, when the gear
lever is in park.
The vehicle will only go into reverse,
when the foot brake is operated.
