â– When driving the vehicle
Accelerate the vehicle slowly and drive at a reduced speed suit-
able to road conditions.
â– When parking the vehicle
Park the vehicle and move the shift lever to P (automatic trans-
mission), 1 or R (manual transmission) without setting the park-
ing brake. The parking brake may freeze up, preventing it from
being released. If necessary, block the wheels to prevent inad-
vertent sliding or creeping.
