Extended storage switch (if so
equipped)
To reduce battery drain, the extended
storage switch comes from the factory
switched off. Prior to delivery of your
vehicle, the switch is pushed in (switched
on) and should always remain on. If any
electrical equipment does not operate,
remove the extended storage switch and
check for an open fuse.
If any electrical equipment does not
operate, remove the extended storage
switch and check for an open fuse.NOTE:
If the extended storage switch malfunc-
tions, or if the fuse is open, it is not
necessary to replace the switch. In this
case, remove the extended storage switch
and replace it with a new fuse of the same
rating.
How to remove the extended storage
switch:
1. To remove the extended storage switch,
be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF
or LOCK position.
2. Be sure the headlight switch is in the OFF position.
3. Remove the fuse box cover.
4. Pinch the locking tabs*1found on
each side of the storage switch.
5. Pull the storage switch straight out from the fuse box
*2.
CAUTION
Be careful not to allow children to swallow
the battery and removed parts.
INTELLIGENT KEY BATTERY REPLACEMENT

SDI2294
To replace the battery:
1. Release the lock knob at the back of theIntelligent Key and remove the mechan-
ical key.
2. Insert a flat-blade screwdriver wrapped with a cloth into the slit of the corner
and twist it to separate the upper part from the lower part.
3. Replace the battery with a new one.
Recommended battery:
CR2025 or equivalent
.Do not touch the internal circuit andelectric terminals as it could cause a
malfunction.
.Hold the battery by the edges.
Holding the battery across the con-
tact points will seriously deplete the
storage capacity.
.Make sure that the + side faces thebottom of the case.SDI1889
