Emergency broadcasts
E00721700141
If an emergency broadcast is caught while receiving a FM broadcast or playing back a
compact disc, the display will
show “ALARM” and the emergenc
y broadcast will interrupt
the current program. The volume level is set separately for lis- tening to normal audio programs and for listening to emer-gency broadcasts. The volume level will therefore change automatically to that set when
an emergency broadcast or traf-
fic information broadcast was la
st received. When the emer-
gency broadcast is over, the radi
o will return to the previously
received program and to the
corresponding volume level.

CAUTION
!●
When washing the under si
de of your vehicle or
wheel, be careful not to injure your hands.
●
If your vehicle has rain sensor wipers, place the wiper switch lever in the
“OFF” position to deacti-
vate the rain sensor before
washing the
vehicle. Oth-
erwise, the wipers will
operate in the presence of
water spray on the windscreen and may get dam- aged as a result.
●
Refrain from excessively using a car wash as its brushes may scratch the pain
t surface, causing it to
lose its gloss. Scratches will be especially
visible on darker col-
oured vehicles.
●
Never spray or splash water on the electrical compo- nents in the engine compartment, as this may adversely affect
engine starting.
Exercise caution also wh
en washing the underbody;
be careful not to spray wa
ter into the engine com-
partment.
●
Some types of hot water washing equipment apply high pressure and heat to
the vehicle. They may
cause heat distortion and damage to the vehicle resinparts and may result in floo
ding of the vehicle inte-
rior. Therefore;• Maintain a distance of approx. 50 cm or more between the vehicle body
and the washing nozzle.
• When washing around the
door glass, hold the
nozzle at a distance of more than 50 cm and atright angles to the glass surface.
●
After washing the vehicle,
drive the vehicle slowly
while lightly depressing
the brake pedal several
times in order to dry out the brakes.Leaving the brakes wet could result in reduced braking performance. Also,
there is a possibility that
they could freeze up or b
ecome inoperative due to
rust, rendering the vehicle unable to move.
●
Using an automatic car wash, pay attention to the following items, refering
to the operation manual or
consulting a car wash opera
tor. If the following pro-
cedure is not followed, it
could result in damage to
your vehicle.• The outside mirrors are retracted.• The wiper arm assembly is taped.• If your vehicle is equipped with a rear deflector or roof rails, consult a car
wash operator before using
the car wash.• If your vehicle has rain
sensor wipers, place the
wiper switch lever in the
“OFF” position to deacti-
vate the rain sensor.CAUTION

NOTE●
If any system does not function but the fuse corresponding to that system is normal, ther
e may be a fault in the system
elsewhere. We recommend y
ou to have your vehicle
checked.
6. Insert a new fuse of the same capacity by using the fuse
puller and insert the fuse at
the same place in the fuse
block.
C- Fuse is OK D- Blown fuse
CAUTION
!●
If the newly inserted fuse
blows again after a short
time, we recommend you to
have the electrical sys-
tem checked to find the cause and rectify it.
●
Never use a fuse with a
capacity larger than that
specified or any substitute,
such as wire, foil, etc.;
doing so will cause the circuit wiring to heat up and could cause a fire.
