Driving your vehicle
When operating
When the ESC is in opera-
tion, the ESC indicator light
blinks:
• When you apply your brakes under
conditions which may lock the
wheels, you may hear sounds from
the brakes, or feel a corresponding
sensation in the brake pedal. This is
normal and it means your ESC is
active.
• When the ESC activates, the
engine may not respond to the
accelerator in the usual way.
• If the Cruise Control was in use
when the ESC activates, the Cruise
Control automatically disengages.
The Cruise Control can be reen-
gaged when the road conditions
allow.See “Cruise Control System”
later in this chapter.(if equipped)• When moving out of the mud or
driving on a slippery road, the
engine rpm (revolutions per minute)
may not increase even if you press
the accelerator pedal heavily. This
is to maintain the stability and trac-
tion of the vehicle and does not
indicate a problem.
ESC OFF condition
To cancel ESC operation :
• State 1
Press the ESC OFF button briefly
(ESC OFF indicator light and mes-
sage illuminates). In this state, the
engine control function does not
operate. In other words, the traction
control function does not operate
and only the brake control function
operates.

Cruise Control operation
1. CRUISE indicator
2. SET indicator
The Cruise Control system allows
you to drive at speeds above 40
km/h without depressing the acceler-
ator pedal.During cruise-speed driving of a
manual transaxle vehicle, do not
shift into neutral without depress-
ing the clutch pedal, since the
engine will be overrevved. If this
happens, depress the clutch pedal
or release the cruise control ON-
OFF switch.NOTICE
CRUISE CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
Take the following precautions:

5-48
Driving your vehicle
Information
• During normal cruise control opera-
tion, when the SET switch is activat-
ed or reactivated after applying the
brakes, the cruise control will ener-
gize after approximately 3 seconds.
This delay is normal.
• To activate cruise control, depress
the brake pedal at least once after
turning the ignition switch to the
ON position or starting the engine.
This is to check if the brake switch
which is important to cancel cruise
control is in normal condition.
To set Cruise Control speed
1. Push the CRUISE button on the
steering wheel to turn the system
on. The CRUISE indicator will illu-
minate.
2. Accelerate to the desired speed,
which must be more than 40 km/h.3. Push the lever (1) down (SET-) ,
and release it. The SET indicator
light will illuminate.
4. Release the accelerator pedal.
Information
The vehicle may slow down or speed
up slightly whilst going uphill or
downhill.

speed.
• Push the lever (1) up (RES+) and
release it immediately. The cruising
speed will increase 2.0 km/h each
time the lever is operated in this
manner.• Depress the accelerator pedal.
When the vehicle attains the
desired speed, push the lever (1)
down (SET-).
To decrease Cruise Control
speed
• Push the lever (1) down (SET-) and
hold it. Your vehicle will gradually
slow down. Release the lever at the
speed you want to maintain.
• Push the lever (1) down (SET-) and
release it immediately. The cruising
speed will decrease 2.0 km/h each
time the lever is operated in this
manner.

Driving in the rain
Rain and wet roads can make driving
dangerous. Here are a few things to
consider when driving in the rain or
on slick pavement:
• Slow down and allow extra follow-
ing distance. A heavy rainfall
makes it harder to see and increas-
es the distance needed to stop
your vehicle.
• Turn OFF your Cruise Control. (if
equipped)
• Replace your windscreen wiper
blades when they show signs of
streaking or missing areas on the
windscreen.
• Ensure your tyres have enough
tread. If your tyres do not have
enough tread, making a quick stop
on wet pavement can cause a skid
and possibly lead to an accident.
See “Tyre Tread” in chapter 7.
• Turn on your headlamps to make it
easier for others to see you.
• Driving too fast through large pud-
dles can affect your brakes. If you
must go through puddles, try to
drive through them slowly.• If you believe your brakes may be
wet, apply them lightly whilst driv-
ing until normal braking operation
returns.
Hydroplaning
If the road is wet enough and you are
going fast enough, your vehicle may
have little or no contact with the road
surface and actually ride on the
water. The best advice is SLOW
DOWN when the road is wet.
The risk of hydroplaning increas-
es as the depth of tyre tread
decreases, refer to “Tyre Tread” in
chapter 7.
Driving in flooded areas
Avoid driving through flooded areas
unless you are sure the water is no
higher than the bottom of the wheel
hub. Drive through any water slowly.
Allow adequate stopping distance
because brake performance may be
reduced.
After driving through water, dry the
brakes by gently applying them sev-
eral times whilst the vehicle is mov-
ing slowly.
