To turn the windshield wipers on, move the lever down to one of the three operating positions. In the “INT” position, the wipers operate intermittently. The “INT” position isvery convenient for driving in mist or light rain. In the “LO” position, the wipers oper- ate at a steady low speed. In the “HI” posi-tion, the wipers operate at a steady high speed. To turn off the wipers, move the lever back to the “OFF” position.Move the lever up and hold it to the “MIST” position, the windshield wipers will turn on continuously at low speed.

NOTE: It is normal for water to drip from the air conditioning system after use.
4) Make sure the hood is fully closed and latched.5) Check the headlights, turn signal lights, brake lights and horn for proper opera- tion.6) Adjust the seat and head restraint (if equipped). 7) Check the brake pedal and the parkingbrake lever. 8) Adjust the mirrors. 9) Make sure that you and all passengershave properly fastened your seat belts. 10)Make sure that all warning lights come on as the key is turned to the “ON” posi-tion. 11)Check all gauges. 12)Make sure that the BRAKE SYSTEMWARNING light turns off when the parking brake is released.
Once a week, or each time you fill your fuel tank, perform the following under-hood checks:
1) Engine oil level 2) Coolant level3) Brake fluid level 4) Windshield washer fluid level 5) Battery solution level6) Hood latch operation Pull the hood release handle inside the vehicle. Make sure that you cannotopen the hood all the way without
releasing the secondary latch. Be sure to close the hood securely after check- ing for proper latch operation. See “Alllatches, hinges & locks” of “CHASSIS AND BODY” in the “Periodic Mainte- nance Schedule” in the “INSPECTIONAND MAINTENANCE” section for lubri- cation schedule.
Once a month, or each time you fill your fuel tank, check the tire pressure using a tire pressure gauge. Also check the tirepressure of the spare tire.
Engine Oil Consumption
It is normal for the engine to consume some engine oil during normal vehicle operation.
The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the viscosity of the oil, thequality of the oil and the conditions the vehicle is driven under. More oil is consumed during high-speeddriving and when there is frequent acceler- ation and deceleration. Under high loads, your engine also will consume more oil.A new engine also consumes more oil, since its pistons, piston rings and cylinder
walls have not yet become conditioned. New engines reach the normal level of oil consumption only after approximately 5000km (3000 miles) driving.
Oil consumption: Max. 1.0 L per 1000 km (1 Qt. per 600 miles)
When judging the amount of oil consump- tion, note that the oil may become diluted and make it difficult to accurately judge thetrue oil level. As an example, if a vehicle is used for repeated short trips, and consumes a nor-mal amount of oil, the dipstick may not show any drop in the oil level at all, even after 1000 km (600 miles) or more of driv-ing. This is because the oil is gradually becoming diluted with fuel or moisture, making it appear that the oil level has notchanged. You should also be aware that the diluting ingredients evaporate out when the vehicleis subsequently driven at high speeds, such as on an expressway, making it appear that oil is excessively consumedafter high-speed driving.
WA R N I N G
Make sure the hood is fully closed and latched before driv ing. If it is not, it can fly up unexpectedly duringdriving, obstructing your view and resulting in an accident.

NOTE: To change your PIN, first delete your cur- rent PIN, then set a new one.
Confirming the Personal Identification Number (PIN)When the main power source is discon- nected such as when the battery is replaced, etc, it is required to enter the PINto make the unit operable again. 1) Set the ignition switch to the “ACC” position. “SECURITY” will be displayed. 2) Press the Up button (3) and the button numbered [1] of the Preset buttons (2)simultaneously. 3) Enter a 4-digit number to be registered as PIN using the buttons numbered [1] -[4] of the Preset buttons (2). 4) Hold down TUNE FOLDER PUSH SOUND knob (4) for 1 second or lon-ger. When the PIN same as registered is entered, the power of the audio systemwill be turned off automatically and it will become operable again.
NOTE: If an incorrect PIN is entered, “ERROR” and the total number of incorrect entryattempts will be displayed. If an incorrect PIN is entered 10 times, “HELP” will be displayed and the audiosystem will become inoperable.
Battery Installation
Install a lithium battery (CR2025) with the poles facing the correct direction.
Battery replacement timing When battery power is depleted, the but-ton may not be operable. If the remote controller does not operate, replace the battery and check the operation.
Caution on battery Be sure to follow the instructions to pre- vent battery leakage, over-heating, igni- tion or explosion.
If battery leakage has occurred, wipe the container first then install a new battery. If the battery solution contacts the skin, wash off with water completely.
Caution on Remote Controller Do not leave the remote controller in anarea exposed to direct sunlight, such as on the dashboard or steering wheel. The remote controller may deform becauseof the heat, (Be especially careful of the dashboard exposed to direct sunlight in the summer, as it will become extremelyhot). When the vehicle is parked in an area exposed to direct sunlight, Ensure theremote controller is placed in an area not exposed to direct sunlight. For example: Glove box.Under direct sunlight , signal reception from the remote controller weakens. If this happens, hold the remote controllerclose to the signal receptor on the front panel.
WA R N I N G
• Do not expose the battery to flame. Do not short circuit, disassemble,or heat the battery. • Do not charge the battery. • Use the specified type battery.• Keep the button-shaped battery away from children to prevent acci- dental swallowing.If the battery is swallowed, contact a doctor immediately.
CAUTION
• Install the battery with the poles facing the correct direction.• When not in use for a long period of time, or if the battery is dead, remove the battery from the remotecontroller.
