WARNING
Observe the following precautions. 
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury. 
■ Opening and closing the canvas top 
● Do not allow any passengers to put their hands or heads outside the vehi- 
cle while it is moving. 
● Do not sit on top of the canvas top. 
● The driver is responsible for canvas top opening and closing operations.  
In order to prevent accidental operation, especially by a child, do not let a
child operate the canvas top. It is possible for children and other passen- 
gers to have body parts caught in the canvas top. 
● Check to make sure that all passengers do not have any part of their body 
in a position where it could be caught when the canvas top is being oper- 
ated.  
● When exiting the vehicle, turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position 
(vehicles without a smart entry & start system) or off (vehicles with a smart 
entry & start system), carry the key and exit the vehicle along with the 
child. There may be accidental operation, due to mischief, etc., that may
possibly lead to an accident.

■ Operating your vehicle in a foreign country 
Comply with the relevant vehicle registration laws and confirm the availability 
of the correct fuel. ( P. 457)
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.  
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury. 
■ When starting the vehicle (vehicles with a multi-mode manual trans- 
mission) 
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the engine 
running. This prevents the vehicle from moving unexpectedly. 
■ When driving the vehicle 
● Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and accel- 
erator pedals 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 difficulty 
in operating the pedals. Make su re to operate the pedals properly. 
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the
vehicle only slightly. This allows you to depress the brake and accelera- 
tor pedals properly. 
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake
pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency, result- 
ing 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. 379 
● Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving 
down a steep hill. 
Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and lose 
effectiveness. ( P. 163, 168) 
● 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.

WARNING
■When starting the engine 
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not depress the 
accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances. 
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury. 
■ Caution while driving 
If engine failure occurs while the vehicle is moving, do not lock or open the 
doors until the vehicle reaches a safe and complete stop. Activation of the
steering lock in this circumstance may lead to an accident, resulting in 
death or serious injury. 
■ Stopping the engine in an emergency 
If you want to stop the engine in an emergency while driving the vehicle, 
press and hold the engine switch for more than 2 seconds, or press it briefly
3 times or more in succession. ( P. 379) 
However, do not touch the engine switch while driving except in an emer- 
gency. 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.
NOTICE
■ To prevent battery discharge 
● Do not leave the engine switch in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode 
for long periods of time without the engine running.
