The angle of the headlamp beam varies depending
upon the load carried by the vehicle.
The headlamp levelling switch (A) can be used to
adjust the headlamp illumination distance (when
the lower beam is illuminated) so that the head-
lamps’ glare does not distract the drivers of ap-
proaching vehicles.
Set the switch (referring to the following table) to
the appropriate position according to the number of
people and the load in the vehicle.

The AF function is turned on (with the AF indica-
tor (10) shown on the display) at all times unless
you manually switch it off.

The AF function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-20.CT (Clock Time) function E00721000128

quency broadcasting the same programming with
the same PI code in AF list.
If there are no frequencies broadcasting the same
programming, the radio searches a frequency broad-
casting the regional programming. The radio suc-
ceeds in searching the regional programming, then
the display shows the REG indicator (14).
If the radio does not succeed in searching the re-
gional programming, the radio returns to the recal-
led preset station.
The PI function can be turned ON and OFF on
some vehicles.

2.If the radio detects traffic information on ei-
ther the station currently selected or another
station, the display will show “TRAF INF”
for 5 seconds followed by a 2-second indica-
tion of the frequency. Then, it will show the
name of the station broadcasting the traffic in-
formation to which you will listen. The vol-
ume level is set separately for listening to nor-
mal audio programs and for listening to traf-
fic information. The volume level will there-
fore change automatically to that set when an
emergency broadcast or traffic information
was last received. When the traffic informa-
tion broadcast is over, the radio will return to
the previously received program and to the
corresponding volume level.
3. Press the TP button (6) to return to the previ-
ous condition.
NOTE l While “TP” is illuminated, the radio stops on-
ly at TP stations even if the TUNE/SEEK but-
ton (3 or 4) is pressed.TP (Traffic information Program) search function E00721800155
The traffic information program standby function
is turned on (with the TP indicator (11) shown on
the display) and after about 45 seconds since the
RDS indicator (9) turns off due to weak signal or
the tuning station is changed over from a TP sta-
tion to a station which does not broadcast traffic in-
formation, the sound will beep 5 times and seeks
out a TP station in all frequencies automatically.

The TP search function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-20.
Emergency broadcasts E00721700183
Except during MW tuning, if an emergency broad-
cast is caught when the ignition switch is in the
“ACC” or “ON” position, the display will show
“ALARM” and the emergency broadcast will inter-
rupt the current program. The volume level is set
separately for listening to normal audio programs
and for listening to emergency broadcasts. The vol-
ume level will therefore change automatically to
that set when an emergency broadcast or traffic in-
formation broadcast was last received. When the
emergency broadcast is over, the radio will return
to the previously received program and to the corre-
sponding volume level.

Jacking up the vehicleE00801001218
1. Park the vehicle on level and stable ground.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. On vehicles with manual transmission, turn
the ignition key to the “LOCK” position,
move the gearshift lever to the “R” (Reverse)
position.
On vehicles with automated manual transmis-
sion, move the allshift lever to the “R” (Re-
verse) position, turn the ignition key to the
“LOCK” position.

hicle, confirm that there is a “A” or “1” in
the allshift indicator display.
4. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and set
up a warning triangle, flashing signal lamp,
etc., at an adequate distance from the vehi-
cle, and have all your passengers leave the ve-
hicle.
5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when it
is raised on the jack, place chocks or blocks
(A) at the tyre that is diagonally opposite
from the tyre (B) you are changing.WARNINGl Be sure to apply chocks or blocks to the
correct tyre when jacking up the vehicle.
If the vehicle moves while jacked up, the
jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.
NOTE
l The chocks shown in the illustration do not
come with your vehicle. It is recommended
that you keep one in the vehicle for use if nee-
ded.
l If chocks are not available, use stones or any
other objects that are large enough to hold
the wheel in position.
6. Place the jack under one of the jacking
points (C) shown in the illustration. Use the
jacking point closest to the tyre you wish to
change.
WARNINGl Set the jack only at the positions shown
here. If the jack is set at a wrong position,
it could dent your vehicle or the jack
might fall over and cause personal injury.
l Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft sur-
face.
Otherwise, the jack might slip and cause
personal injury. Always use the jack on a
flat, hard surface.
Before setting the jack, make sure there
are no sand or pebbles under the jack base.
7. Holding the jack in position by hand, turn
the handle until the flange portion (D) fits in
the groove (E) at the top of the jack.
8. Slowly turn the jack handle until the tyre is
raised slightly off the ground surface.
