{ WarningCruise control can be dangerous
where you cannot drive safely at
a steady speed. Do not use
cruise control on winding roads or
in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous
on slippery roads. On such roads,
fast changes in tire traction can
cause excessive wheel slip, and
you could lose control. Do not use
cruise control on slippery roads.
If equipped with cruise control, a
speed of about 48 km/h (30 mph) or

{ Warning .
Always turn and look back
before backing up. The RPA
is not a substitute for proper
backing procedures.
(Continued) Warning (Continued) .
Read and understand the
limitations of the rear parking
assist system as contained in
this section. Inclement
weather may affect the
function of the RPA; this may
include reduced performance
or a false activation. .
This system is not designed
to prevent contact with small
or moving objects. .
The system is designed as a
aid to the driver in detecting
large stationary objects to
help avoid damaging the
vehicle. The system will not
detect small objects below
the bumper, and may not
detect objects close to the
bumper or on the ground. .

Driving and Operating 9-31Warning (Continued) or bent, the sensing zone
may be altered causing
inaccurate measurement of
obstacles or false alarms.
The Rear Parking Assist (RPA)
sounds a tone to warn the driver of
obstacles near the rear bumper
when the shift lever is in
R (Reverse). The system may not
detect objects at speeds above
5 km/h (3 mph) and may not detect
certain angular or moving objects.
The RPA detects objects up to 1.8 m
(5.9 ft) from the rear bumper with a
decreased coverage area at the
outer corners of the bumper. As you
move closer to the obstacle, the rate
of the tone increases. When the
obstacle is less than 25 cm (10 in)
away, the tone will sound
continuously. If the RPA detects a
stationary or receding object further
than 25 cm (10 in) from the side of
the vehicle, the tone will sound for only three seconds. Once the
system detects an object
approaching, the tone will sound
again.
The RPA automatically turns on
when the shift lever is placed in
R (Reverse) and the ignition switch
is in ON. The RPA OFF switch on
the instrument panel allows the
driver to turn the RPA on and off. To
turn the RPA off, the ignition switch
must be placed in ON. An indicator
light on the switch will illuminate
when the system is turned off. If the
indicator light illuminates when the
RPA is not turned off, it may indicate
a malfunction in the RPA.
Keep the RPA sensors, located on
the rear bumper, free from snow,
ice, and large accumulations of dirt.
Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects. If the sensors are covered,
it will affect the accuracy of
the RPA. Rear Vision
Camera (RVC) When the shift lever is shifted into
R (Reverse), the display shows the
view to the rear of the vehicle.
{ Warning .
Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions for proper
use of the Rear Vision
Camera (RVC) could result in
serious injury or death. .
The RVC is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for
proper backing. Always turn
and look out the windows,
and check mirrors to be sure
that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always
back up slowly. .
The system is designed as an
aid to the driver in showing
large stationary objects

help avoid damaging the
vehicle. .
The system cannot
completely eliminate blind
spots and may not show
every object. .
Underneath the bumper and
the corner areas of the
bumper cannot be viewed on
the RVC display because of
its monitoring range limitation.
The system will not show
small objects below the
bumper, and may not show
objects close to the bumper
or on the ground. .
Objects viewed on the RVC
display differ from actual
distance because a
wide-angle lens is used.
(Continued) Warning (Continued) .
Objects on the RVC display
will appear visually opposite
than when viewed in the
rearview and outside mirrors. .
Make sure that the back
doors are securely closed
when backing up. .
Do no put anything on the
rearview camera. The
rearview camera is installed
on the back door. .
When washing the vehicle
with high pressure water, be
sure not to spray it around
the camera. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit
causing water condensation
on the lens, a malfunction,
fire, or an electric shock. .
Do not strike the camera. It is
a precision instrument.
Otherwise, it may malfunction
or cause damage resulting in
a fire or an electric shock. { CautionThere is a plastic cover over the
camera. Do not scratch the cover
when cleaning dirt or snow from
the cover.

Fuel Use of the recommended fuel is an
important part of the proper
maintenance of this vehicle. When
driving in the U.S. and Canada, to
help keep the engine clean and
maintain optimum vehicle
performance, we recommend using
TOP TIER Detergent Gasolines.
See www.toptiergas.com for a list of
TOP TIER Detergent Gasolines.
Use regular unleaded gasoline
meeting ASTM specification D4814
with a posted octane rating of 87 or higher. Do not use gasoline with an
octane rating below 87, as it may
cause engine damage and will lower
fuel economy.
Use of Seasonal Fuels
Use summer and winter fuels in the
appropriate season. The fuels
industry automatically modifies the
fuel for the appropriate season.
If fuel is left in the vehicle tank for
long periods of time, driving or
starting could be affected. Drive the
vehicle until the fuel is at one-half
tank or less, then refuel with the
current seasonal fuel.
Prohibited Fuels
Gasolines containing oxygenates
such as ethers and ethanol, as well
as reformulated gasolines, are
available in some cities. If these
gasolines comply with the
previously described specification,
then they are acceptable to use. { Warning .
Using a fuel other than what
is specified could adversely
affect the emission control
system, and may also affect
the warranty coverage. .
Under no circumstances
should either a leaded
gasoline or gasoline with
MMTbe used. Doing so will
damage the catalytic
converter. .
Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel
in your vehicle. Your vehicle
is not designed to run on
E-15 or E-85 fuel. Using E-15
or E-85 fuel in a vehicle not
specifically designed for E-15
or E-85 fuel can adversely
damage the emission control
devices and systems of the
vehicle. Damage caused by
such fuel is not covered by
the new vehicle limited
warranty.
