5-18 Switches and controls
NOTE:
• Do not keep the exhaust brake switch in the
activation position at all times. Keeping the
switch in the activation position worsens fuel
consumption, as doing so causes the exhaust
brake to work frequently and thus the vehicle to
decelerate and accelerate frequently.
Save fuel by using the exhaust brake switch
appropriately according to road and traffic condi-
tions.
• The exhaust brake is activated when the auto-
matic DPF regeneration takes place during
parking. The indicator, however, is not illu-
minated.
• Activation and deactivation of exhaust
brake
Pushing the lever forward activates the exhaust
brake. While the exhaust brake is activated, the
indicator lamp stays illuminated.
Deactivated
Activated
The exhaust brake will be temporarily disabled in
the following conditions. Full functionality will be
returned when the original conditions have been
restored.
• The accelerator pedal is depressed.
• The gearshift lever is moved to “N”.
• The ABS is operating.
6 Wiper and washer switch
CAUTION
• Operating the wipers when the windshield is
dry damages the windshield glass. If the
glass is dry, be sure to squirt it with washer
fluid before operating the wipers.
• Check nearby conditions before operating
the washer switch. Washer fluid may splash
around in some circumstances.
WARNING
In cold weather, warm the windshield with the
heater before operating the washer since
washer fluid could otherwise freeze onto the
windshield and obstruct your vision.
