er, headlamps on this vehicle do not need any adjustment.
l Do not leave the lights on for a long time

l When it rains, or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-

CAUTIONlDo not remove the ignition key from the ig-
nition switch while driving. The steeringwheel will be locked, causing loss of con-
trol.
l If the engine is stopped while driving, the
brake servomechanism will cease to function and braking efficiency will deteriorate. Also,
the power steering system will not function
and it will require greater manual effort to
operate the steering.
l Do not leave the key in the “ON” position
for a long time when the engine is not run-
ning, doing so will cause the battery to be discharged.
l Do not turn the key to the “START” position
while the engine is running. Doing so could damage the starter motor.Steering wheel lock

E00620600298
Tips for starting
l Do not operate the starter motor continu-
ously longer than 10 seconds; doing so
could run down the battery. If the engine
does not start, turn the ignition switch
back to “LOCK”, wait a few seconds,
and then try again. Trying repeatedly with the starter motor still turning will damage the starter mechanism.
l [For diesel-powered vehicles with M/T]
While the vehicle is stationary with the
clutch pedal fully depressed, the engine revolutions do not rise to over 3,000 rpm
in order to protect the engine even if the accelerator pedal is depressed.
WARNINGl Never run the engine in a closed or poorly
ventilated area any longer than is needed
to move your vehicle in or out of the area. Carbon monoxide gases are odourless and can be fatal.
