For vehicles with M/T, if you shift to “N”
(Neutral) position in auto-speed control
mode without pressing the clutch first,
the engine will run too fast and might be
damaged.
NOTE l Auto-speed

control may not be able to keep
your speed on uphills or downhills.
l Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill.
You must use the accelerator pedal if you
want to stay at your set speed.
l Your speed may increase to more than the
set speed on a steep downhill. You must use
the brake to control your speed. If your speed
increases too much, turn off the autospeed
control. (Refer to “To deactivate” on page
4-28.) CRUISE indication lamp
E00609200161

position with a “click” when ready. Pull it out for
use.
After use, insert the lighter to its original position
in the socket. NOTE
l Do

not leave the cigarette lighter removed
from its socket, because the socket might be-

tention of the lighter. CAUTION
l
When
the cigarette lighter socket is used
as a power source for an electric appli-
ance, be sure that the electric appliance
operates at 12 V and has an electric ca-
pacity of 120 W or less. In addition, long
use of the electric appliance without run-
ning the engine may run down the battery. For pleasant driving

If the vehicle breaks down
E00800100778
If
the vehicle breaks down on the road, move it to
the shoulder and use the hazard warning flashers and/
or the warning triangle etc.
Refer to “Hazard warning flasher switch” on page
3-21.
If the engine stops/fails
Vehicle operation and control are affected if the en-
gine stops.
Before moving the vehicle to a safe area, be aware
of the following:
l The brake booster becomes inoperative and
the pedal effort will increase. Press down the
brake pedal harder than usual.
l Since the power steering pump is no longer
operative, the steering wheel feels heavy
when turning it. Turn the wheel with more ef-
fort than usual. Emergency starting
E00800502301
If
the engine cannot be started because the battery
is weak or dead, the battery from another vehicle
can be used with jumper cables to start the engine. WARNING
l To
start the engine by use of jumper ca-
bles from another vehicle, perform the cor-
rect procedures according to the instruc-
tion manual. Incorrect procedures could
result in a fire or explosion or damage to
the vehicles.
1. Get
the vehicles close enough so the jumper cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles
aren’t touching each other. If they are, it
could cause a ground connection you don’t
want. The vehicle will not start, and the bad
grounding could damage the electrical sys-
tems. CAUTION
l
Check
the other vehicle. It must have a 12-
volt battery.
If the other system isn’t 12-volt, shorting
can damage both vehicles.
2. You
could be injured if the vehicles move. Set the parking brake firmly on each vehicle.
Put an A/T in “P” (PARK) or a M/T in “N”
(Neutral). Turn off the ignition switch. WARNING
l Turn
off the ignition on both vehicles be-
forehand. Take care to make sure that
the cables or your clothes are never
caught by the fan or drive belt. Personal
injury could result.
NOTE l Turn

off all lamps, heater and other electrical
loads. This will avoid sparks and help save
both batteries.
3. Make sure battery electrolyte is at the proper level. Refer to “Battery” on page 8-10. WARNING
l If
electrolyte fluid is not visible, or ap-
pears to be frozen, Do Not Attempt Jump
Starting!
A battery might rupture or explode if the
temperature is below the freezing point
or if it is not filled to the proper level.

tery (A), and the other end to the positive (+)
terminal of the booster battery (B).
Diesel-powered vehicles (except for diesel
particulate filter models)
Lift
up the front of the engine cover to re-
lease the three grommets (A). Then, pull the
engine cover towards you to release the grom-
met (B) and remove the cover. Diesel-powered vehicles (for diesel particu-
late filter models) Lift up the engine cover to release the five
grommets (A) and remove the cover.
Connect one end of one jumper cable to the
positive
(+) terminal of the discharged bat-
tery (A), and the other end to the positive (+)
terminal of the booster battery (B). 5. Connect
one end of the other jumper cable to
the negative (-) terminal of the booster bat-
tery, and the other end to the engine block of
the vehicle with the discharged battery at the
point farthest from the battery. NOTE
l Open

the cover before connecting the jumper
cable to the positive (+) terminal of the bat-
tery. (Refer to “Battery” on page 8-10.) WARNING
l Be
sure to observe the connecting se-
quence of .
l Make sure that the connection is made
to

the appointed position (shown in the il-
lustration). If the connection is made di-
rectly to the negative side of the battery,
the inflammable gasses generated from
the battery might catch fire and explode.
l When connecting the jumper cable, do
not connect the positive (+) cable to the
negative (-) terminal. Otherwise sparks
might cause explosion of the battery. CAUTION
l
Take
care not to get the jumper cable
caught in the cooling fan or other rotat-
ing part in the engine compartment.
l Take care not to pinch the wiring harness
with the clamps when connecting the
jumper cables.
l Use the proper cables suitable for the bat-
tery size. Otherwise heat damage to the ca-
bles could result.
l Check the jumper cables for damage and
corrosion before use.
