HANDSET PHONEBOOK
Many phones will support an automatic down-
load of the cellular phone’s phonebook. Since
this method allows for up to 1000 numbers to be
stored and entries are automatically assigned
voice tags by the system, this is a useful function
for easy dialing supported by the Voice Recogni-
tion system.
Transferring the handset phonebook
If your cellular phone supports automatic down-
loading, the system transfers the handset phone-
book automatically by default. To ensure that this
feature is activated, press the SETTING button
on the instrument panel and select the “Phone”
key. The “Auto Downloaded” selection should
have the amber indicator next to the word ON
activated. Select the “Auto Downloaded” key to
toggle this feature on or off.To transfer the handset phonebook to the vehicle
manually, follow these steps:
1. Press the SETTING button on the control
panel.
2. Select the “Phone” key.
3. Select the “Download Handset Phonebook”
key.
Once the handset phonebook is transferred to
the vehicle, it can be accessed by pressing the
PHONE key on the instrument panel or the
button on the steering wheel, then selecting the
“Handset Phonebook” key.
Whether the handset phonebook is transferred
manually or automatically, the process can take
up to five minutes to complete, depending on the

(LDW) SYSTEM
Precautions on LDW system
WARNING
●This system is only a warning device to
inform the driver of a potential unin-
tended lane departure. It will not steer
the vehicle or prevent loss of control. It
is the driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in
the traveling lane, and be in control of
the vehicle at all times.
●The system will not operate at speeds
below approximately 45 MPH (70 km/h)
or if it cannot detect lane markers.●If the LDW system malfunctions, it will
cancel automatically, and “Please see
owner’s manual” will appear in the ve-
hicle information display. If “Please see
owner’s manual” appears in the vehicle
information display, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the vehicle.

may not be heard.
●Do not use the LDW system under the
following conditions as it may not func-
tion properly:
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
wind, etc.) .
– When driving on slippery roads, such
as on ice or snow, etc.
– When driving on winding or uneven
roads.– When there is a lane closure due to
road repairs.
– When driving in a makeshift or tem-
porary lane.
– When driving on roads where the
lane width is too narrow.
– When driving without normal tire
conditions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation of
spare tire, tire chains, nonstandard
wheels) .
– When the vehicle is equipped with
nonoriginal brake parts or suspen-
sion parts.
– When you are towing a trailer or
other vehicle.
The system may not function properly under the

lane markers; lane markers that are faded or
not painted clearly; yellow painted lane
markers; non-standard lane markers; or lane
markers covered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
●On roads where the discontinued lane mark-
ers are still detectable.
●On roads where there are sharp curves.
5-26Starting and driving

●On roads where there are sharply contrast-
ing objects, such as shadows, snow, water,
wheel ruts, seams or lines remaining after
road repairs. (The LDW system could detect
these items as lane markers.)
●On roads where the traveling lane merges or
separates.
●When the vehicle’s traveling direction does
not align with the lane marker.
●When traveling close to the vehicle in front of
you, which obstructs the lane camera unit
detection range.
●When rain, snow, dirt or object adheres to
the windshield in front of the lane camera
unit.
●When the headlights are not bright due to
dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not adjusted
properly.
