BRZ_U (A4450BE-A)
Starting off on a steep uphillVehicles with an automatic transmission Make sure that the parking brake is set and shift the select
lever to D.
Gently depress the accelerator pedal.
Release the parking brake.
Vehicles with a manual transmission With the parking brake firmly set and the clutch pedal fully
depressed, shift the shift lever to 1.

gradually releasing the clutch pedal.

■When starting off on an uphill
When enabled, the hill start assist system can operate. ( →P. 264)
■ Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the
windows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
● Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be
especially slippery.
● Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the rain,
because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road
surface, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
