WARNING
■When adjusting the seat position
● Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passen-
gers are not injured by the moving seat.
● Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid
injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.
● Make sure to leave enough space around the feet so they do not get stuck.
■ Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an
accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

NOTICE
■Handling the rain clearing mirror
The rain clearing effect is finite. Observe the following precautions in order
to retain the rain-clearing properties of the mirrors:
● When using water repellent, oil film remover, wax, or any other car mainte-
nance product that contains silicone, pay full attention not to adhere it to
the mirror surface.
● Do not wipe the mirror surface by using any cloth smeared with sand, oil
film remover, abrasive agent, or any other thing that may scratch the mir-
ror surface.

water, or operating the outside rear view mirror defoggers.
But, do not attempt to scrape the ice off by using the plastic plate, etc.

1564-5. Opening and closing the windows
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62023U
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■Closing the windows
● The driver is responsible for all the power window operations, including the
operation for the passengers. In order to prevent accidental operation,
especially by a child, do not let a child operate the power windows. It is
possible for children and other passengers to have body parts caught in
the power window. Also, when riding with a child, it is recommended to use
the window lock switch. ( →P. 154)
● Check to make sure that all passengers do not have any part of their body
in a position where it could be caught when a window is being operated.
● When using the wireless remote control or mechanical key and operating
the power windows, operate the power window after checking to make
sure that there is no possibility of any passenger having any of their body
parts caught in the window. Also do not let a child operate window by the
wireless remote control or mechanical key. It is possible for children and
other passengers to get caught in the power window.
● When exiting the vehicle, turn the power switch off, 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.
■ Up jam protection function

function.
● The jam protection function may not work if something gets caught just
before the window fully closes.
■ Down jam protection function

Driving

■When starting off on an uphill
The hill-start assist control will activate. ( →P. 232)
■ For fuel-efficient driving
Keep in mind that fuel cell vehicles are similar to conventional vehicles, and it
is necessary to refrain from activities such as sudden acceleration. ( →P. 94)
■ Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the win-
dows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
● Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be espe-
cially 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 sur-
face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
■ Restraining the fuel cell system output (Brake Override System)
● When the accelerator and brake pedals are depressed at the same time, the
fuel cell system output may be restrained.
● A warning message is displayed on the multi-information display while the
system is operating. If a warning message is shown on the multi-information
display, read the message and follow the instructions.
■ Restraining sudden star t (Drive-Start Control)
● When the following unusual operation is performed, the fuel cell system out-
put may be restrained.
• When the shift lever is shifted from R to D, D to R, N to R, P to D, or P to
R with the accelerator pedal depressed, a warning message appears on
the multi-information display. If a warning message is shown on the multi-
information display, read the message and follow the instructions.
• When the accelerator pedal is depressed too while the vehicle is in
reverse.
● While Drive-Start Control is being activated, your vehicle may have trou-
ble escaping from the mud or fresh snow. In such case, deactivate TRAC
(→ P. 233) to cancel Drive-Start Control so that the vehicle may become
able to escape from the mud or fresh snow.

Driving
MIRAI_OM_USA_OM62023U
WARNING
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 “READY”
indicator is illuminated. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.
■ 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 sure 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.
● The driver should pay extra attention to pedestrians when the fuel cell sys-
tem is on. As there are no engine sounds, pedestrians may misjudge the
vehicle’s movement.
● During normal driving, do not turn off the fuel cell system. Turning the fuel
cell system off while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking con-
trol, however, power assist to the steering will be lost. This will make it
more difficult to steer smoothly, so you should pull over and stop the vehi-
cle as soon as it is safe to do so.
In the event of an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the
vehicle in the normal way: →P. 361
● 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.
