. Thetrailer mustbeloaded sothat heavy goods are
placed overtheaxle. Themaximum allowable
vertical loadonthe trailer hitchmust notbe
exceeded. .
Have yourvehicle serviced moreoftenthanatthe
intervals specified inaseparate maintenance
booklet.
. Trailer towing requires morefuelthan under
normal circumstances becauseofaconsiderable
increase intraction powerandresistance.
While towing atrailer, checktheengine coolant
temperature indicatortoprevent thevehicle
from overheating.

provide powerassistwhiledriving tooperate the
steering wheelwithlight force.
When thesteering wheelisoperated repeatedly or
continuously whileparking ordriving atavery low
speed, thepower assistforthe steering wheelwillbe
reduced. Thisisto prevent overheating ofthe electric
power steering systemandprotect itfrom getting
damaged. Whilethepower assistisreduced, steering
wheel operation willbecome heavy.When the
temperature ofthe electric powersteering system
goes down, thepower assistlevelwillreturn tonormal.
Avoid repeating suchsteering wheeloperations that
could cause theelectric powersteering systemto
overheat.
Y ou may hear africative soundwhenthesteering
wheel isoperated quickly.However, thisisnot a
malfunction.
If the electric powersteering warninglight
illuminates whiletheengine isrunning, itmay indicate
the electric powersteering systemisnot functioning

V acuum assisted brakes
GUID-7AE 8E208-0576-4 BD2-8C93-C8FFF26A62C6
The brake booster aidsbraking byusing engine
vacuum. Ifthe engine stops,youcan stop thevehicle
by depressing thefoot brake pedal. However, greater
foot pressure onthe foot brake pedalwillberequired
to stop thevehicle. Thestopping distancewillbe
longer.
If the engine isnot running oristurned offwhile driving,
the power assisted brakeswillnot function. Braking
will beharder.
WARNING:
Do not coast withtheengine stopped.
For model withBrake Assist: Whenthebrake pedalis
depressed slowlyandfirmly ,you may hear aclicking
noise andfeelaslight pulsation. Thisisnormal and
indicates thattheBrake Assist System isoperating.

Avoid resting yourfootonthe foot brake pedalwhile
driving. Thiswilloverheat thebrakes, wearoutthe
brake linings/pads faster,andincrease fuelconsump-
tion.
T o help reduce brakewearandtoprevent thebrakes
from overheating, reducespeedanddownshift toa

Overheated brakesmayreduce braking performance
and could resultinloss ofvehicle control.
