Failing to do so may result in loss of control of the vehicle and cause an accident, result-
ing in death or serious injury.
●Do not adjust the mirrors while driving.
●Do not drive with the mirrors folded.

GX460_OM_OM60Q09U_(U)4-1. Before driving
CAUTION
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal
while stopped with the engine running. This
prevents the vehicle from creeping.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and accelerator ped-
als to avoid depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the brake pedal will
result in sudden acceleration that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to a difficulty in oper-
ating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving po sture even when moving the vehicle only
slightly. This allows you to depress th e brake and accelerator pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake pedal using your left foot may delay re sponse in an emergency, resulting in an accident.
●Do not drive the vehicle over or stop the vehicle near flammable materials.
The exhaust system and exhaust gases can be extremely hot. These hot parts may
cause a fire if there is any flammable material nearby.
●During normal driving, do not turn off the engine. Turning the engine off while driving
will not cause loss of steering or braking control, but the power assist to these systems
will be lost. This will make it more difficult to steer and brake, so you should pull over
and stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
However, in the event of an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the
vehicle in the normal way: →P. 511
●Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving down a steep
hill.
Using the brakes continuously may cause th e brakes to overheat and lose effective-
ness. ( →P. 194)
●Do not adjust the positions of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or outside rear
view mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their body are not
outside the vehicle.
●Do not drive in excess of the speed limit. Even if the legal speed limit permits it, do not
drive over 85 mph (140 km/h) unless your vehicle has high-speed capability tires.
Driving over 85 mph (140 km/h ) may result in tire failure, loss of control and possible
injury. Be sure to consult a tire dealer to determine whether the tires on your vehicle
are high-speed capability tires or no t before driving at such speeds.

Driving
CAUTION
■When using the Multi-terrain Monitor system
Observe the following precautions to avoid an accident that could result in death or
serious injuries:
●When attempting to use the side cameras while the door mirror is folded in, the base
of the door mirror is displayed on the screen and the area in front of the vehicle can-
not be observed. The image displayed on the screen differs depending on the posi-
tion of the door mirror.
●The field of view of the camera is limited. Do not rely solely upon the Multi-terrain
Monitor.
As with unequipped vehicles, drive carefully while directly confirming the safety of
your surroundings.
Take particular care to avoid parked cars and other obstacles.
●Do not drive the vehicle while only lookin g at the monitor screen under any circum-
stances.
Driving while only viewing the monitor scr een may cause a collision or lead to an
accident, as the image displa yed on the monitor screen may differ from actual condi-
tions. Make sure to visually check the surrounding areas with and without the mirror
while driving.
●Always check visually and with the mirrors to confirm your intended path is clear.
●The camera uses a special lens. The distances between objects and pedestrians that
appear in the image displayed on the screen will differ from the actual distances.
●These are just some of the functions of th e Multi-terrain Monitor. The steering wheel
timing and amount the steering wheel should be turned differs depending on the road
condition and road surface. Use the Multi- terrain Monitor with full understanding of
the above conditions.
Always confirm that there is appropriate sp ace before attempting to park the vehicle.
●Do not use the Multi-terrain Monitor in the following cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow
• When using tire chains
• When the back door is not closed completely
• On roads that are not flat or stra ight, such as curves or slopes.
●In low temperatures, the screen may darken or the image may become faint. The
image could distort when the vehicle is movi ng, or you may become unable to see the
image on the screen. Be sure to check dire ct visually all around the vehicle before
proceeding.
