Owners Handbook
When travelling in wet or slippery conditions, use care when accelerating and braking. After driving through deep water (over 5 cm’s deep) gently apply the brakes whilst moving to dry them.
When travelling downhill, take extra care not to use the brakes too much. Excessive use can cause the fluid to boil and become ineffective. If possible use the engine brake to keep the speed at a steady pace.
Page 7?
Only use the right foot to operate automatic vehicle, don’t operate left and right foot together for this could cause excessive wear on the brake pads.
The vehicle will only start, when the gear lever is in park.
The vehicle will only go into reverse, when the foot brake is operated.

Owners Handbook
When driving an automatic, only use the right foot to operate the accelerator and brake.
When leaving the vehicle, leave the gear lever in park.
Do not start the vehicle, if the exhaust is not clear.
Always leave the ignition in “lock”, when sleeping?
Tips when driving an automatic vehicle.
Vehicles fitted with automatic transmission are easier to drive for there is no need for gear changes or clutch operation. But you must learn the techniques related to its use.
1.When the shift lever is in any position other than “P” or “N”, the vehicle may creep forward even when the accelerator is not pressed.
2.When stationary, even on level ground, apply the foot brake to prevent the vehicle moving.
3.If the air conditioner is operating the engine will be idling faster than normal and may cause the vehicle movement to be greater.
