When driving
■
Steering lock release
■ If the engine does not start
The engine immobilizer system may not have been deactivated. ( P. 81)
■ Key reminder buzzer
A buzzer sounds if the driver’s door is opened while the engine switch is in
the “LOCK” position to remind you to remove the key.
CAUTION
■When starting the engine
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver's seat. Do not depress the
accelerator while starting the engine under any circumstances.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
■ Caution when driving
Do not turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position while driving. If, in an
emergency, you must turn the engine off while the vehicle is moving, turn the
engine switch only to the “ACC” position.
When starting the engine, the engine
switch may seem stuck in the “LOCK”

ing the steering wheel slightly in either
direction.

162 2-3. Operating the lights and wipers
■Daytime running light system
●To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the headlights turn on
automatically whenever the engine is started and the parking brake is
released.
● Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system
offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help
improve fuel economy.
● Vehicles with daytime running light control sensor: The brightness of
headlights will automatically change depending on the darkness of the
surroundings. The other exterior lights and instrument panel lights auto-
matically turn on or off.
■ Daytime running light co ntrol sensor (if equipped)
■ Light reminder buzzer
Vehicles without smart key system
A buzzer sounds when the engine switch is turned OFF and the driver's door
is opened with the key removed from the engine switch while the lights are
turned on.
Vehicles with smart key system
A buzzer sounds when the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned OFF or
to ACCESSORY mode and the driver's door is opened while the lights are
turned on.
The sensor may not function properly if
an object is placed on the sensor, or any-
thing that blocks the sensor is affixed to
the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light and
may cause the daytime running light sys-
tem to malfunction.

308 3-5. Using the interior lights
■Illuminated entry system
Vehicles without moon roof
The interior light (with the switch in the “DOOR” position) and “ENGINE
START STOP” switch light (vehicles with smart key system) automatically
turn on/off according to “ENGINE START STOP” switch mode (vehicles with
smart key system) or engine switch position (vehicles without smart key sys-
tem), the presence of the electronic key (vehicles with smart key system),
whether the doors are locked/unlocked (vehicles with power door lock sys-
tem) and whether the doors are open/closed.
Vehicles with moon roof
The interior light, personal/interior lights (with the switch in the “DOOR” posi-
tion) and “ENGINE START STOP” switch light (vehicles with smart key sys-
tem) automatically turn on/off according to “ENGINE START STOP” switch
mode (vehicles with smart key system) or engine switch position (vehicles
without smart key system), the presence of the electronic key (vehicle\
s with
smart key system), whether the doors are locked/unlocked (vehicles with
power door lock system) and whether the doors are open/closed.
■ To prevent the battery from being discharged
If the interior light, personal/interior lights (vehicles with moon roof) and
“ENGINE START STOP” switch light (vehicles with smart key system)
remain on when the door is not fully closed and the switch is in the “DOOR”
position, the lights will go off automatically after 20 minutes.
