l When taking a
key on flights, do not
press any switches on the key while on
the plane. If a switch is pressed on the
plane, the key emits electromagnetic
waves, which could adversely affect the
plane’s flight operation.
When carrying a key in a bag, be careful
that no switches on the key can be easily
pressed by mistake.
NOTE l The
key number
is stamped on the tag as in-
dicated in the illustration.
Make a record of the key number and store
the key and key number tag in separate pla-
ces, so that you can order a key in the event
the original keys are lost.
l The key is a precision electronic device with
a built-in signal transmitter. Please observe
the following in order to prevent damage.
• Do not leave where it may be exposed toheat caused by direct sunlight, such as on
top of the dashboard.
• Do not take the remote control transmit- ter apart.
• Do not excessively bend the key or sub- ject it to strong impacts.
• Keep the remote control transmitter dry.
• Keep away from magnetic objects such as key rings.
• Keep away from devices that produce magnetism, such as audio systems, com-
puters and televisions.
• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners. • Do
not leave the key where it may be ex-
posed to
high temperature or high humid-
ity.
l The engine is designed so that it will not
start if the ID code registered in the immobil-
izer computer and the key’s ID code do not
match. Refer to the “Electronic immobilizer”
section for details and key usage. Locking and unlocking

E00501600012Turn-signal indication lamps/
Hazard warning indication
lamps
E00501700068
These indication lamps
blink on and off
when a turn-signal lamp is operating.
NOTE
l If the blinking is too fast, the
cause may be a blown lamp bulb
or a faulty turn-signal connection.
When the hazard warning lamp switch is
pressed, all turn-signal lamps will flash
on and off continuously. High-beam indication lamp
E00501800072
This indication lamp
illuminates when
the high-beam is used. Front fog lamp indication

switch at “ ” or “ ” position
Diesel preheat indication lamp
(diesel-powered vehicles)
E00502300146
This indication lamp
illuminates when
the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position. As the glow plug becomes hot,
the lamp goes out and the engine can be
started. CAUTION
l
If the
diesel
preheat indication
lamp comes on after the engine
is started, the engine speed may
not rise above the idling speed
because of fuel freezing. In this
case, keep the engine idling for
about ten minutes, then turn
off the ignition switch and im-
mediately turn it on again to
confirm that the diesel preheat
indication lamp is off.
NOTE l If
the engine
is cold, the diesel pre-
heat indication lamp is on for a lon-
ger time. l
When the
engine
has not been star-
ted within about 5 seconds after
the diesel preheat indication lamp
went out, return the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position.
Then, turn the switch to the “ON”
position to preheat the engine
again.
l When the engine is warm, the die-
sel preheat indication lamp does
not come on even if the ignition
switch is placed in the “ON” posi-
tion. Fuel filter indication lamp (die-
sel-powered vehicles)
E00509900239
This indication lamp
illuminates when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position and goes off after the engine
has started. If it lights up while the en-
gine is running, it indicates that water
has accumulated inside the fuel filter; if
this happens, remove the water from the
fuel filter. Refer to “Removal of water
from the fuel filter (diesel-powered vehi-
cles only)” on page 6-06.
When the lamp goes out, you can re-
sume driving. If it either does not go out
or comes on from time to time, we rec-
ommend you to have the vehicle inspec-
ted. Instruments and controls

ABS warning lamp
E00607200532
The ABS warning
lamp should illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned “ON”, and should go off
in a few seconds. CAUTION
l
If the
warning
lamp stays on or does not
illuminate when you start the vehicle, it in-
dicates that the ABS is not functioning
and that only the standard brake system
is in operation. (In this condition the stand-
ard hydraulic brake system will still func-
tion.) We recommend you to have your ve-
hicle inspected as soon as possible. NOTE
l Depressing
the brake
pedal repeatedly may
turn on the brake warning lamp, ABS warn-
ing lamp and brake warning buzzer. (The
ASTC indication lamp and Active Stability
Control function OFF indication lamp also
turn on.) It is normal if the lamp goes out
and the buzzer stops sounding after a few sec-
onds.
l On vehicles with the rear differential lock,
the active stability & traction control
(ASTC) and anti-lock brake system (ABS)
functions are suspended while the rear differ-
ential lock is activated. ASTC indication
lamp, Active Stability Control function OFF
indication lamp, ABS warning lamp and
brake warning lamp are illuminated while
these functions are suspended. It does not in-
dicate a problem. When the rear differential
lock is disengaged, these lamps go out and
function again.
Refer to “Brake warning lamp” on page 3-09,
“ASTC indication lamp” on page 4-42, “Ac-
tive stability control function OFF indication
lamp” on page 4-43. If the warning lamp illuminates while
driving
E00607300416
If only the ABS warning lamp illuminates l Avoid
hard
braking
and high-speed driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart the engine and check to see whether
the lamp goes out after a few minutes driv-
ing; if it then remains off during driving,
there is no problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out, or if it
lights up again when the vehicle is driven,
we recommend you to have the vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
l The ABS warning lamp can illuminate if the
battery voltage is insufficient when the en-
gine is started. In this case, it does not indi-
cate an ABS fault.
Charge the battery by allowing the engine to
idle for a while.
If the battery has been charged but the ABS
warning lamp continues to illuminate or illu-
minates intermittently, we recommend you
to have the vehicle inspected.
If the ABS warning lamp and brake warning
lamp illuminate at the same time l The ABS and brake force distribution func-
tion will not work, so hard braking could
make the vehicle unstable.
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and we rec-
ommend you to have it checked. Starting and driving
