6-2 Driving safety

N00628500029
For economical driving, there are some tech-
nical requirements that have to be met. In
order to achieve longer life of the vehicle and
the most economical operation, we recom-
mend you to have the vehicle checked at reg-
ular intervals according to the “WARRANTY
AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
Avoid driving with the accelerator pedal fully
depressed, such as for unnecessarily sudden
starts, acceleration and deceleration.
Smoothly depress the accelerator pedal.
Observe the speed limit and keep the speed as
constant as possible while driving.
Parking for a long period with the ready indi-
cator illuminated will shorten the cruising
range.
At higher the vehicle speed the more main
drive lithium-ion battery is consumed. Avoid
driving at full speed. Even a slight release of
the accelerator pedal will save a significant
amount of main drive lithium-ion battery
charge.
Check the tire inflation pressures at regular
intervals Low tire inflation pressure increases
road resistance. In addition, low tire pressures
adversely affect tire wear and driving stabil-
ity.
Do not drive with unnecessary articles in the
luggage compartment.
Too much cooling/heating can affect the
cruising range, so maintain an appropriate
temperature to extend the cruising range.

Drunk driving is one of the most frequent
causes of accidents.
Your driving ability can be seriously impaired
even with blood alcohol levels far below the
legal minimum. If you have been drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-
drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or use
public transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-
ing a cold shower will not make you sober.
Similarly, prescription and nonprescription
drugs affect your alertness, perception and
reaction time. Consult with your doctor or
pharmacist before driving while under the
influence of any of these medications.

The original equipment floor mat provided
with your vehicle was specifically designed
for your vehicle. Always properly position
the floor mat and assure it does not interfere
with operation of the pedals. Always use the
retaining clip on the driver’s floorboard to
secure the floor mat. When used, this clip will
help prevent the floor mat from moving for-
ward and possibly interfering with the opera-
tion of the pedals. To prevent the floor mat
