Driving on hills
B6003204
When coasting uphill or downhill, the
front sensors may not detect the vehicle
ahead or suddenly detect the vehicle
ahead at the end of the incline or at the
point where the incline changes. The
regenerative braking intensity is adjusted
automatically changing your vehicle
speed. Brake as needed to reduce your
driving speed.
Changing lanes
B6003205
• When a vehicle moves into your lane
from an adjacent lane, it cannot be
detected by the sensors until it is in the
sensor's detection range.
• The smart regeneration system may not
immediately detect the vehicle when
your vehicle changes lanes abruptly.
Braking System
Power-Assist Brakes
Your vehicle has power-assisted brakes
that adjust automatically through normal
usage.
In the event of a vehicle power failure, the
power assist for the brakes will not work.
You can still stop your vehicle, but it will
require greater force and increased pedal
travel than normal. The stopping
distance, however, will be longer than
with power brakes.
Information
• When the brake pedal is depressed under
certain driving conditions or weather
conditions, you may temporarily hear a
noise. This is normal and does not indicate
a problem with your brakes.
• While driving on a road with deicing
chemicals, brake noise or abnormal tire
wear may occur due to deicing chemicals.
In a safe traffic condition, additionally
apply the brakes to remove deicing
chemicals on the brake discs and pads.
WARNING
Take the following precautions:
• Do not drive with your foot resting on
the brake pedal. This will create
abnormal high brake temperatures,
excessive brake lining and pad wear,
and increased stopping distances. So
increase the regeneration braking level
with the left paddle shifter to decrease
the speed.
• When descending down a long or steep
hill, use the paddle shifter to increase
the regeneration braking level in order
to decrease your speed without using
the brake pedal excessively. Applying
the brakes continuously will cause the
