Inspect fluid level in the washer fluid
reservoir; add fluid if necessary.
L F
OK
The top of the float should be between F
and L.
Use plain water if washer fluid is
unavailable.
But use only washer fluid in cold weather
to prevent it from freezing.
NOTE
Front and rear washer fluid is supplied from
the same reservoir.
Body Lubrication
All moving points of the body, such as
door and hood hinges and locks, should
be lubricated each time the engine oil is
changed. Use a nonfreezing lubricant on
locks during cold weather.
Make sure the hood's secondary latch
keeps the hood from opening when the
primary latch is released.

NOTElPlacing heavy items on the front
passenger's seat may cause the front
passenger's seat belt warning function to
operate depending on the weight of the
item.
lTo allow the front passenger seat weight
sensor to function properly, do not place
and sit on an additional seat cushion on the
front passenger's seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the additional
seat cushion could cause sensor
interference.
lIf a small child is seated on the front
passenger's seat, the warning beep may not
operate.
qIgnition Not Switched Off
(STOP) Warning Beep
If the driver's door is opened while the
ignition is switched to ACC, a continuous
beep sound will be heard to notify the
driver that the ignition has not been
switched off (STOP) (for vehicles with a
type A meter, messages are displayed in
the instrument cluster). Left in this
condition, the keyless entry system will
not operate, the car cannot be locked, and
the battery power will be depleted.
qKey Removed from Vehicle
Warning Beep
Under the following conditions, a beep
sound will be heard and the KEY warning
light (red) will flash continuously when
the ignition has not been switched off to
notify the driver that the key has been
removed (for vehicles with a type A
meter, messages are displayed in the
instrument cluster). The KEY warning
light (red) will stop flashing when the key
is back inside the vehicle (for vehicles
with a type A meter, messages are
displayed in the instrument cluster):
The ignition has not been switched off
and all the doors are closed after
removing the key from the vehicle. (A
beep sound will be heard 6 times.)
NOTE
Because the key utilizes low-intensity radio
waves, the Key Removed From Vehicle
Warning may activate if the key is carried
together with a metal object or it is placed in a
poor signal reception area.
qRequest Switch Inoperable
Warning Beep (With the
advanced keyless function)
If the request switch is pressed under the
following conditions while the key is
being carried, a beep will be heard for
about 2 seconds to indicate that the front
doors and the liftgate can not be locked.
lA door or the liftgate is open (door ajar
included).
lThe ignition has not been switched to
off.
