Do not press the buttons on the remote control vehicle key unless you actually want to use the
function in question. Since terrain and conditions vary, pressing a button on the remote control vehicle
key when it is not necessary may unlock the vehicle or set off the panic alarm, even if you think you
are out of range.
Remote control vehicle key functions can be temporarily disrupted by interference from transmit-
ters near the vehicle that use the same frequency range (such as radio equipment or cellular phones).
Things between the remote control vehicle key and vehicle, bad weather, as well as a weak
battery can reduce the operating range.
If the remote control vehicle key buttons 47 or the power locking buttons 48 are pushed re-
peatedly in quick succession, the power locking system is switched off for a brief period to help keep it
from being overloaded. The vehicle is then unlocked for about 30 seconds. Unless a door or the
luggage compartment lid is opened in this span of time, the vehicle is automatically locked afterwards.

WARNING
Never let a passenger, especially a child, ride on the center armrest.

Fig. 103 Inside the glove compartment.

Opening and closing the glove compartment
If necessary, unlock the glove compartment with the emergency key. It is locked when the key slot is
vertical.
To open, pull the handle ⇒ fig. 102.
To close, push the lid up.
Opening and closing the Owner's Manual storage compartment
The storage compartment at the top of the glove compartment is designed to hold the Owner's Manual
or the MDI (MEDIA-IN) jack.
The Owner's Manual or MDI (MEDIA-IN) jack is located in a storage compartment at the top, which
can be pulled down to open ⇒ fig. 103 (3).
The strap (2) indicates the handle for opening the storage compartment.
If the vehicle is not equipped with the MDI (MEDIA-IN) jack, always keep the Owner's Manual in this
storage compartment. To stow the Owner's Manual, place it in the slot with the binding facing the
inside of the glove compartment door.
Holders
Depending on the model, there may be holders for a pen and a notepad in the glove compartment.
Cooling the glove compartment
There is an air vent (1) in the back of the glove compartment. Cool air can be directed into the glove
compartment if the air conditioner is on. Open or close the air vent by turning it.
WARNING
An open glove compartment door can increase the risk of serious injury during sudden
braking or driving maneuvers or in a crash.
x Always keep the glove compartment closed while the vehicle is moving.
NOTICE
Keep the storage compartment with the CD changer (3) closed while the vehicle is moving,
otherwise the CD changer may be damaged by vibrations.
NOTICE
In some vehicle models, design considerations have made it necessary to have openings in the
glove compartment behind the Owner's Manual slot, for example. Small items may fall through
these openings and get behind the instrument panel. This can cause unusual noises and
damage the vehicle. Never put any small objects in the glove compartment for this reason.
Depending on options, a factory-installed CD changer or Media Device Interface (MDI) /
(MEDIA-IN) may be located in the glove compartment ⇒ Booklet Radio, or ⇒ Booklet Navigation
system.

Unshielded devices may interfere with radio reception or the vehicle's electrical system.

When a turn signal is set, unnecessary lines and areas are hidden.
Orientation lines overview
Meaning of the orientation lines and areas projected on screen ⇒ fig. 131. All distances of the
orientation lines refer to a vehicle on a level surface.
(1) Red: Safety distance. Area up to about 16 inches (40 cm) behind the vehicle on the road.
(2) Vehicle's width limits.
(3) Point to change steering angle.
When the yellow line touches the curb or any other parking space boundary, the steering wheel
must be turned in the opposite direction (close-up view).
(4) The area parallel to the vehicle that is needed for parking. The area shown must fit completely
into the parking space.
(5) Parked vehicle at the curb.
Parking
x Position the vehicle about 3 feet (1 meter) away from and parallel to the parking space and shift
into Reverse.
x On the screen of the navigation system, activate Mode 2 for parallel parking.
x Back up slowly and steer the vehicle so that the yellow surface on the screen is flush with the side
boundary of the parking space (such as the curb) and stops short of any obstacle (5), such as another
vehicle.
x Turn the steering wheel as far as it will go into the direction of the parking space and slowly back
up.
x Once the yellow line (3) touches the side of the parking space, for example, a marking or the curb
(close-up view), turn the steering wheel as far as it will go in the opposite direction.
x Continue backing up until the vehicles is positioned in the parking space parallel to the road. If
necessary, correct the parking position.
It may take up to 5 seconds for the area detected by the sensors to be displayed on the factory-
installed radio or navigation system screen.

Proper response
Ç – There is a malfunction
between a sensor and the
system. The function can be
temporarily disrupted by
interference from transmitters
in the vicinity of the vehicle
working in the same
frequency range such as radio
equipment, remote controls or
children's toys.
Switch the source of interference off.
