WARNING
The tyre replacement indicator is not a substitute
for regular tyre checks, including tyre pressure
checks. See “Wheels and tyres” in the “8. Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section. Many factors
including tyre inflation, alignment, driving habits
and road conditions affect tyre wear and when
tyres should be replaced. Setting the tyre re-
placement indicator for a certain driving distance
does not mean your tyres will last that long. Use
the tyre replacement indicator as a guide only
and always perform regular tyre checks. Failure
to perform regular tyre checks, including tyre
pressure checks could result in tyre failure. Seri-
ous vehicle damage could occur and may lead to
a collision, which could result in serious personal
injury or death.
3. Other indicator:
This indicator appears when the customer set time
comes for replacing items other than the engine oil,
fuel filter and tyres. You can set or reset the dis-
tance for replacing the items.

[Tyre pressures]
The settings in the Tyre pressures] menu are all
related to the Tyre pressure monitoring system
TPMS (see “Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” in the “5. Starting and driving” section).
•[Target front]
•[Target rear]
•[Tyre pressure unit]
•[Calibrate]
[Target front]:
The [target front] tyre pressure is the pressure speci-
fied for the front tyres on the tyre placard (see “Tyre
placard” in the “9. Technical information” section
and “Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” in
the “5. Starting and driving” section).

16. [Low Tyre Pressure] warning
This warning ([Low Tyre Pressure] and a vehicle
icon - where fitted) appears when the low tyre pres-
sure warning light in the meter illuminates and low
tyre pressure is detected. The warning appears each
time the ignition switch is placed in the ON position
as long as the low tyre pressure warning light re-
mains illuminated. If this warning appears, stop the
vehicle and adjust the pressure to the recommended
COLD tyre pressure shown on the tyre placard.
(See “Low tyre pressure warning light (where fitted)”
earlier in this section and “Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)” in the “5. Starting and driving” sec-
tion.)
17. [Low oil pressure stop vehicle]
warning
This warning appears in message area of the ve-
hicle information display if low oil pressure is de-
tected. This gauge is not designed to indicate low
oil level. The low oil pressure warning is not de-
signed to indicate a low oil level. Use the dipstick to
check the oil level. See “Engine oil” in the “8. Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section.)
CAUTION
The oil level should be checked regularly using
the engine oil dipstick. Operating with an insuffi-
cient amount of oil can damage the engine and
such damage is not covered by the warranty.
18. [Oil Level Low] warning
This warning appears in message area of the ve-
hicle information display if the oil level is not suffi-
cient for driving. Park the vehicle at a safe location
as soon as possible and use the dipstick to check
the oil level. See “Engine oil” in the “8. Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section If the oil level is not suf-
ficient for driving, top up the engine oil with the rec-
ommended engine oil. “Engine oil” in the “8. Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section.)
CAUTION
The oil level should be checked regularly using
the engine oil dipstick. Operating with an insuffi-
cient amount of oil can damage the engine and
such damage is not covered by the warranty.
19. [4WD System Fault] warning
This warning appears when the four wheel drive
(4WD) system is not functioning properly while the
engine is running.
20. [4WD high temp. stop vehicle]
warning
This warning may appear while trying to free a stuck
vehicle due to increased oil temperature. The driv-
ing mode may change to Two-Wheel Drive (2WD).
If this warning is displayed, stop the vehicle with the
engine idling, as soon as it is safe to do so. Then if
the warning turns off, you can continue driving.
21. [4WD tyre size incorrect] warning
This warning may appear if there is a large differ-
ence between the diameters of the front and rear
wheels and tyres. Pull off the road in a safe area,
with the engine idling. Check that all the tyre sizes
are the same, that tyre pressures are correct and
that the tyres are not excessively worn.
22. [Shipping mode on push storage
fuse] warning
This warning may appear if the extended storage
fuse switch is not pushed in (switched on). When
this warning appears, push in (switch on) the ex-
tended storage fuse switch to turn off the warning.
For more information, see “Fuses” in the “8. Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section.

battery] warning
This warning appears after a period of time if the
shift lever has not moved from the P (Park) position
while the ignition is in the ON position for a certain
period of time.
24. [Power turned off to save the
battery] warning
This warning appears after the ignition switch is au-
tomatically turned OFF to save the battery.
2-24Instruments and controls

During the first 1,600 km (1,000 miles), follow these
recommendations for the future reliability and
economy of your new vehicle. Failure to follow the
recommendations may result in shortened engine
life and reduced engine performance.
•Avoid driving for long periods at a constant
speed, either fast or slow.
•Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
•Avoid quick starts.
•Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
•Do not tow a trailer during the first 800 km (500
miles).
NOTE
Models with K9K diesel engine will achieve top
performance only after approximately 5,000 km
(3,000 miles).
WARNING
The driving characteristics of your vehicle can be
changed remarkably by any additional load and
its distribution as well as by adding optional
equipment (trailer couplings, roof racks, etc.).
Your driving style and speed have to be adjusted
accordingly. Especially when carrying heavy
loads, your speed must be reduced adequately.
•Make sure the area around the vehicle is free of
obstacles.
•Check fluid levels such as engine oil, coolant,
brake and clutch fluid, and window washer fluid
as frequently as possible, at least whenever you
refuel.
•Visually inspect tyres for their appearance and
condition. Also check the tyre pressure for
proper inflation.
•Maintenance items in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section should be checked peri-
odically.
•Check that all windows and light lenses are
clean.
•Check that all doors are closed.
•Position the seat and adjust the head restraints.
•Adjust the inside and outside mirrors.
•Fasten your seat belt and ask all passengers to
do likewise.
•Check the operation of the warning/indicator
lights when the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position.
•Do not place hard or heavy objects on the dash-
board or rear parcel shelf in order to prevent
injury in the event of a sudden stop.
