Inspecting and Changing Fuses
1. Turn the vehicle off, including all lights and
accessories.
2. Check the fuses on the battery in the engine
compartment. If the fuse is blown, have it
replaced by a dealer.
3. Remove the fuse box cover.
4. Inspect the small fuses in the engine
compartment and the vehicle interior.
If there is a burned-out fuse, remove it with the
fuse puller and replace it with a new one.
5. Check the large fuse in the engine compartment.
If the fuse is blown, use a Phillips-head
screwdriver to remove the screw and replace the
fuse with a new one. Reinstall the screw.
Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the
chances of damaging the electrical system.

Frequently Asked Questions/ Troubleshooting
Below are some frequently asked questions and troubleshooting items that you may
have about the vehicle.
Q: How do I set the vehicle clock?
A: For vehicles without navigation, see page 47. For vehicles with navigation, the

Q: Why doesn’t the vehicle start when I press the ENGINE START/STOP button?*
A: The brake pedal must be pressed to start the engine.
Q: What is the AUTO setting on my headlight lever?
A: When in the AUTO position, the vehicle’s exterior lights will automatically turn
on or off depending on the ambient lighting.
Q: Why won’t the driver’s door unlock when I grab the door handle, even though
the keyless access remote is within range?*

compatibility for Bluetooth
® Audio, Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®, and SMS text
messaging.
