When Driving
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
NOTE
Because this system detects slight changes in tyre conditions, the timing of the warning
may be faster or slower in the following cases:
 
 The size, manufacturer, or the type of tyres is different from the specifi cation. 
 The size, manufacturer, or the type of a tyre is different from the others, or the level of
tyre wear is excessively different between them.
  A run-fl at tyre, studless tyre, snow tyre, or tyre chains are used. 
 An emergency tyre is used (The tyre pressure monitoring system warning light may
fl ash and then continue illuminating).

 A tyre is repaired using the emergency fl at tyre repair kit. 
 The tyre pressure is excessively higher than the specifi ed pressure, or the tyre pressure
is suddenly lowered for some reason such as a tyre burst during driving.
  The vehicle speed is lower than about 15 km/h (9.3 mph) (including when the vehicle
is stopped), or the drive period is shorter than 5 minutes.
  The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road. 
 Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as during
aggressive driving on a winding road.
  Load on the vehicle is applied to a tyre such as by loading heavy luggage to one side of
the vehicle.
  System initialization has not been implemented with the specifi ed tyre pressure.

When Driving
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization
In the following cases, system
initialization must be performed so that the
system operates normally.
 


 A tyre pressure is adjusted.



 Tyre rotation is performed.



 A tyre or wheel is replaced.



 The battery is replaced or completely
drained.
 


 The tyre pressure monitoring system
warning light is illuminated.
Initialization method
1. Park the car in a safe place and fi rmly
apply the parking brake.
2. Let the tyres cool, then adjust the tyre
pressure of all four (4) tyres to the
specifi ed pressure indicated on the tyre
pressure label located on the door jamb
of the driver's door (door open).
Refer to Tyres on page 9-9 .
3. Switch the ignition ON.
4. While the vehicle is parked, press
and hold the tyre pressure monitoring
system set switch and verify that
the tyre pressure monitoring system
warning light in the instrument cluster
fl ashes twice and a beep sound is heard
once.
CAUTION
If the system initialization is performed
without adjusting the tyre pressure, the
system cannot detect the normal tyre
pressure and it may not illuminate the
tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light even if a tyre pressure is low, or
it may illuminate the light even if the
pressures are normal.
Adjust the tyre pressure on all four
tyres and initialize the system when
the warning light is turned on. If the
warning light turns on for a reason other
than a fl at tyre, the tyre pressure of all
four tyres may have decreased naturally.
The system initialization will not be
performed if the switch is pressed while
the vehicle is being driven.

When Driving
Rear View Monitor
Rear View Monitor *
The rear view monitor provides visual images of the rear of the vehicle when reversing.
WARNING
Always drive carefully confi rming the safety of the rear and the surrounding conditions
by looking directly with your eyes:
Reversing the vehicle by only looking at the screen is dangerous as it may cause an
accident or a collision with an object. The rear view monitor is only a visual assist
device when reversing the vehicle. The images on the screen may be different from the
actual conditions.
CAUTION
  Do not use the rear view monitor under the following conditions: Using the rear view
monitor under the following conditions is dangerous and could result in injury or
vehicle damage or both.
 


 Icy or snow-covered roads.



 Tyre chains or a temporary spare tyre is installed.



 The liftgate is not fully closed.



 The vehicle is on a road incline. 

 When the display is cold, images may course across the monitor or the screen and
may be dimmer than usual, which could cause diffi culty in confi rming the surrounding
conditions of the vehicle. Always drive carefully confi rming the safety of the rear and
the surrounding conditions by looking directly with your eyes.
  Do not apply excessive force to the camera. The camera position and angle may
deviate.
  Do not disassemble, modify, or remove it as it may no longer be waterproof. 
 The camera cover is made of plastic. Do not apply degreasing agents, organic solvents,
wax, or glass coating agents to the camera cover. If any are spilled on the cover, wipe
off with a soft cloth immediately.
  Do not rub the cover excessively, or polish it using an abrasive compound or a hard
brush. The cover may be damaged affecting the image.

WARNING
Always adjust the picture quality of the rear view monitor while the vehicle is stopped:
Do not adjust the picture quality of the rear view monitor while driving the vehicle.
Adjusting the picture quality of the rear view monitor such as brightness, contrast,
colour, and tint while driving the vehicle is dangerous as it could distract your attention
from the vehicle operation which could lead to an accident.
Picture quality adjustment can be done while the shift lever is in reverse (R).
There are four settings which can be adjusted including, brightness, contrast, tint, and
colour. When adjusting, pay suffi cient attention to the vehicle surroundings.

When Driving
Parking Sensor System
Parking Sensor System *
The parking sensor system uses ultrasonic sensors to detect obstructions around the vehicle
while parking the vehicle in a garage or during parallel parking when the shift lever is
in reverse (R). The system is equipped with an assist device to notify the driver of the
approximate distance from the vehicle to the surrounding obstruction using a beep sound.
Rear corner sensorRear sensor
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the parking sensor system and be sure to confi rm the safety
around your vehicle visually when driving.
This system can assist the driver in operating the vehicle in the forward and backward
directions while parking. The detection ranges of the sensors are limited, therefore,
driving the vehicle while relying only on the system may cause an accident. Always
confi rm the safety around your vehicle visually when driving.

Interior Features
Air-Conditioning System
Control Switches
Temperature control dial
This dial controls temperature. Turn it
clockwise for hot and anticlockwise for
cold.
Fan control dial
This dial allows variable fan speeds.
0—Fan off
1—Low speed
2—Medium low speed
3—Medium high speed
4—High speed
Mode selector dial
Turn the mode selector dial to select
airfl ow mode (page 5-4 ).
NOTE

 The mode selector dial can be set at
the intermediate positions (
)
between each mode. Set the dial to
an intermediate position if you want
to split the airfl ow between the two
modes.
  For example, when the mode selector
dial is at the
position between the
and positions, airfl ow from the
fl oor vent is less than that of the
position.
A/C switch
Press the A/C switch to turn the air
conditioner on. The indicator light on the
switch will illuminate when the fan control
dial is set at position 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Press the switch once again to turn the air
conditioner off.
NOTE
The air conditioner may not function
when the outside temperature
approaches 0 °C (32 °F).
Air intake selector (Type A)
This switch controls the source of air
entering the vehicle.
Press the air intake selector switch to
alternate between the outside air and
recirculated air positions.
Recirculated air position (
)
Outside air is shut off. Air within the
vehicle is recirculated.
Outside air position (
)
Outside air is allowed to enter the
cabin. Use this mode for ventilation or
windscreen defrosting.
WARNING
Do not use the recirculated air position
in cold or rainy weather:
Using the recirculated air position in
cold or rainy weather is dangerous as it
will cause the windows to fog up. Your
vision will be hampered, which could
lead to a serious accident.
Air intake selector (Type B)
This lever controls the source of air
entering the vehicle.
It is recommended that under normal
conditions the switch be kept in the
outside air position.
