This warning is displayed if you drive withthe parking brake still applied. The warning lamp in the instrument cluster only illumi-
nates when the parking brake is applied.CAUTIONl If a vehicle is driven without releasing the
parking brake, the brake will be overheated, resulting in ineffective braking and possiblebrake failure.
If this warning is displayed, release the park-
ing brake.Type 1Type 2
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is put in
ON, if the brake fluid is low, this warning is displayed.
The warning lamp in the instrument cluster
also illuminates.CAUTIONl If this warning stays illuminated and does
not go out while driving, there is a danger of
ineffective braking. In this case, immediate- ly park your vehicle in a safe place and we
recommend you to have it checked.
l If the brake warning display is displayed and
the brake warning lamp and the ABS warn- ing lamp are illuminated at the same time,
the braking force distribution function will not operate, so the vehicle may be destabi-
lised during sudden braking. Avoid sudden
braking and high-speed driving, stop the ve- hicle in a safe place, and we recommend you
to have it checked.
l The vehicle should be brought to a halt in
the following manner when brake perform-
ance has deteriorated.
• Depress the brake pedal harder than usual.
Even if the brake pedal moves down to the very end of its possible stroke, keep it
pressed down hard.
• Should the brakes fail, use engine braking
to reduce your speed and pull the parking
brake lever.
Depress the brake pedal to operate the
stop lamp to alert the vehicles behind you.Charge warning display

Headlamps
NOTElWhen entering a country in which vehicles
are driven on the opposite side of the road tothe country in which your vehicles is sup- plied, necessary measures have to be takento avoid dazzling oncoming traffic. Howev-
er, headlamps on this vehicle do not need any adjustment.
l Do not leave the lights on for a long time
while the engine is stationary (not running).A rundown battery could result.
l When it rains, or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy, but this does not indicate a functional problem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water gathers
inside the lamp, we recommend you to have it checked.

Economical drivingE00600101076
For economical driving, there are some tech- nical requirements that have to be met. Theprerequisite for low fuel consumption is a
properly adjusted engine. In order to achieve longer life of the vehicle and the most eco- nomical operation, we recommend you tohave the vehicle checked at regular intervals in accordance with the service standards.
Fuel economy and generation of exhaust gas
and noise are highly influenced by personal
driving habits as well as the particular operat- ing conditions. The following points shouldbe observed in order to minimize wear of
brakes, tyres and engine as well as to reduce
environmental pollution.
Starting the engine
Avoid sudden acceleration and sudden starts,
as they will increase fuel consumption.
Shifting
Shift only at an appropriate speed and engine speed. Always use the highest shift position
possible.
Selecting the 4WD drive mode
(4WD vehicles)
The drive mode-selector should be set to
“2WD” when driving on normal roads and
express ways to obtain best possible fuel
economy.
City traffic
Frequent starting and stopping increases the
average fuel consumption. Use roads with smooth traffic flow whenever possible. When driving on congested roads, avoid use of a
low shift position at high engine speeds.
Idling
The vehicle consumes fuel even during
idling. Avoid extended idling whenever pos- sible.
Speed
At higher vehicle speed, more fuel is con- sumed. Avoid driving at full speed. Even a
slight release of the accelerator pedal will save a significant amount of fuel.
Tyre inflation pressure
Check the tyre inflation pressures at regular
intervals. Low tyre inflation pressure increa-ses road resistance and fuel consumption. In addition, low tyre pressures adversely affect
tyre wear and driving stability.
Cargo loads
Do not drive with unnecessary articles in the
luggage compartment. Especially during city
driving where frequent starting and stopping is necessary, the increased weight of the ve-
hicle will greatly affect fuel consumption. Al-
so avoid driving with unnecessary luggage or carriers, etc., on the roof; the increased air re- sistance will increase fuel consumption.
Cold engine starting
Starting of a cold engine consumes more fuel.
Unnecessary fuel consumption is also caused by keeping a hot engine running. After the
engine is started, commence driving as soon
as possible.
Air conditioning
The use of the air conditioning will increase the fuel consumption.

Parking with the engine run-ning
Never leave the engine running while you
take a short sleep/rest. Also, never leave the engine running in a closed or poorly ventila-
ted place.
WARNINGl Leaving the engine running carries the
riskof injury or death from accidentally
moving the gearshift lever ( M/T) or the
selector lever ( A/T or CVT) or the accu-
mulation of toxic exhaust fumes in the
passenger compartment.
Where you park
WARNINGl Do not park your vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass
or leaves can come in contact with a hot exhaust, since a fire could occur.
Do not keep the steering wheel
fully turned for a long time
More effort could be required to turn the
steering wheel.
Refer to “Electric power steering system (EPS)” on page 6-50.
When leaving the vehicle
Always carry the key and lock all doors and
the tailgate when leaving the vehicle unatten-
ded.
Always try to park your vehicle in a well lit
area.
