Opening the hood
1. Pull the release lever to unlatch the
hood. The hood should pop open
slightly.
WARNING - Windows
• NEVER leave the smart key in the
vehicle.
• NEVER leave any child unattend-
ed in the vehicle. Even very
young children may inadvertently
cause the vehicle to move, entan-
gle themselves in the windows,
or otherwise injure themselves or
others.
• Always double check to make
sure all arms, hands, head and
other obstructions are safely out
of the way before closing a win-
dow.
• Do not allow children to play with
the power windows. Keep the dri-
ver’s door power window lock
switch in the LOCK position
(depressed). Serious injury can
result from unintentional window
operation by the child.
• Do not extend a face or arms out-
side the window while driving.

CAUTION
• To prevent possible damage to
the power window system, do not
open or close two windows or
more at the same time. This will
also ensure the longevity of the
fuse.
• Never try to operate the main
switch on the driver's door and
the individual door window
switch in opposing directions at
the same time. If this is done, the
window will stop and cannot be
opened or closed.
WARNING
Open the hood after turning off the
engine on a flat surface, shifting
the shift lever to the P(Park) posi-
tion, and setting the parking brake.

- the trunk lid is open with shift lever
in R (Reverse).

In these cases, the brake warning light
comes on, the AUTO HOLD indicator
changes from green to white, and a
warning sounds and a message will
appear to inform you that EPB has
been automatically engaged.
Before driving again, depress the
brake pedal, check the area around
the vehicle and release the EPB

the EPB will be automatically
engaged. In this case, when you
release the EPB by pressing the EPB

depressed, the AUTO HOLD will hold
the vehicle for 3 seconds in order to
prevent the vehicle from rolling back
during starts.
