2-1. Driving procedures

UK_AURIS_HV_EE

CAUTION

 When starting the vehicle

Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the hybrid sys-

tem operating. 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

that could result in death or serious injury.

• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to a diffi-

culty 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, allowing you to depress the brake and accelerator

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 attention to pedestrians when the vehicle is pow-

ered only by the electric motor (traction motor). Because there is no hybrid

system sounds, the pedestrians may misjudge the vehicle’s movement.

 Do not drive the vehicle over or stop the vehicle near flammable materials.

The exhaust system and exhaust gases can be extremely hot. This may

cause a fire if there is any flammable material nearby.

 Do not let the vehicle roll backwards while a forward driving position is

selected, or roll forward while R is selected.

Doing so may cause the hybrid system not to operate or lead to poor

brake and steering performance, resulting in an accident or damage to the

vehicle.
