Winter Driving Avoid shifting down abruptly. Such behavior can cause the wheels to lock, possibly leading to loss of vehicle control.
An anti-lock brake system( ABS) enhances your vehicle’ s braking performance on snowy and icy roads. For information about braking on slippery surfaces, refer to " ABS( Anti-Lock Brake System)" �P249 and " Vehicle Stability Control( VSC)/ TRAC System " �P250.
For AT models, use the Snow mode when driving on snowy or icy roads. For details about how to use the mode, refer to " Driving Mode Select Switch " �P243.
▼ Wiper operation when snowing
Before driving in cold weather, make sure the wiper blade rubbers are not frozen to the windshield.
If the wiper blade rubbers are frozen to the windshield, use the defroster with the airflow selection in“” and the temperature set for maximum warmth until the wiper blade rubbers are completely thawed. Refer to " Climate Control Panel " �P200.
Snow stuck on the wiper arm prevents the wiper from working effectively. If snow is stuck on the wiper arm, pull off the road to a safe place, then remove it. If you stop the vehicle at road side, use the hazard warning flasher to alert other drivers.
Refer to " Hazard Warning Flasher " �P131.
We recommend use of non-freezing type wiper blades( winter blades) during the seasons you could have snow and freezing temperatures. Blades of this type give superior wiping performance in snowy conditions. Be sure to use blades that are suitable for your vehicle.
CAUTION
During high-speed driving, nonfreezing type wiper blades may not perform as well as standard wiper blades. If this happens, reduce the vehicle speed.
NOTE
When the season requiring non-freezing type wiper blades is over, replace them with standard wiper blades.
■ Corrosion Protection
