When Driving

as if the brake pedal is sinking down. This is normal.

Turning on the Power

Keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal when
starting the power system.

The engine is harder to start in cold weather and in
thinner air found at altitudes above 8,000 feet (2,400
meters).

When turning on the power system in cold weather,
turn off all electrical accessories such as the lights,
climate control system, and rear defogger in order to
reduce 12-volt battery drain.

If you live in a region where winter is extremely cold,
an engine block heater and transmission clutch
actuator heater will improve starting and reduce the
warming time required before driving. Consult a
dealer for details.

If exhaust system sounds abnormal or you can smell
exhaust gas inside the vehicle, have your vehicle
checked by a dealer. There may be a problem with
the engine or exhaust system.
