Disc
When it is cold or when it is raining,
the car windows will fog up and
cause dew (water drops) to form in
the vehicle compartment
(condensation). When this happens,
the audio may skip, and playback
will stop. Ventilate the vehicle
compartment and dehumidify before
resuming use.
The audio may skip due to violent
vibrations when the car is traveling
across harsh roads.
Never insert foreign objects into the
disc insertion slot.
Do not insert a wet disc into the
player.
This player uses an invisible laser
beam which could cause hazardous
radiation exposure if directed
outside the player. Be sure to
operate the player correctly.Playback may not be possible due
to recording conditions or disc
characteristics, scratches, dirt,
or deterioration.
Usable Discs
Most music CDs can be used. CD-R
and CD-RW discs recorded
according to the CD-DA format can
also be played.
CD-R (CD-Recordable), CD-RW
(CD-ReWritable) may not be able to
play back due to the recording
condition, characteristics of the disc,
damage, dirt or deterioration due to
long exposure to the environment of
the vehicle compartment. CD-R,
CD-RW that are not finalized and
CD-R and CD-RW that are saved in
the UDF format cannot be played
(excluding MP3/WMA).
CD-TEXT function is only
compatible with commercial CD
compatible with CD-TEXT.
Characters may not display
accurately in CD-R and CD-RW.

Driving Information
Driver Behavior
Napping in the Vehicle
{Warning
Before taking a nap in the vehicle,
be sure to shut off the engine and
place the engine control switch in
the "LOCK" position. Otherwise,
any unintended contact with the
accelerator pedal while you are
asleep could cause the vehicle to
move, resulting in an accident.. If you leave the engine
running and unintentionally
keep the accelerator pedal
pressed while asleep, the
engine and exhaust pipe
could become abnormally
hot, resulting in a fire.
. If you leave the engine
running while taking a nap
with the vehicle parked in a
place where exhaust gases
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
could get into the cab (for
example, a place that is
poorly ventilated), you could
suffer carbon monoxide
poisoning.
. You and others could be
seriously injured.
Distracted Driving
Do Not Use a Mobile Phone
While Driving
{Warning
Drivers should never use mobile
telephones or car phones in any
mode other than Hands Free
while driving. Doing so is
dangerous. Using a mobile
telephone while driving could
result in an accident because you
would not be paying full attention
to your surroundings. If you are
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
driving and you wish to use a
mobile telephone, first stop the
vehicle in a safe place.
You and others could be seriously
injured.

Warnings for Driving
{Warning
Concentrate on driving safely,
obeying all legally designated
speed limits, road signs and
traffic signals.
If you notice any abnormal noise,
abnormal smell or abnormal
vibration from any part of the
vehicle, immediately stop the
vehicle in a safe place and
perform checks.(Continued)

134 Driving and Operating
Warning (Continued)
If a warning light comes on or a
buzzer sounds while you are
driving, immediately stop the
vehicle in a safe place and
perform checks.
Slow down sufficiently when
approaching a curve. Applying the
brakes or sharply turning the
steering wheel while turning the
curve could cause the cargo to
shift, the tires to slip and the
vehicle to tip onto its side.
Avoid scraping the tire sidewalls
against curbstones or driving over
dips and protrusions in the road
surface. You could damage the
tires, resulting in a blowout or
flat tire.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
Pulling Away After Stopping
and Parking
Before pulling away, check that
there are no children or obstructions
around the vehicle and confirm that
it is safe to pull away.
If you cannot see the area behind
your vehicle well enough to confirm
it is safe to back up, get out of the
vehicle and check behind it.
Make it a habit to look around and
confirm that it is safe to pull away
after a temporary stop (at traffic
lights, for example).
If the Windshield Fogs Up
Use the heater to blow hot air on the
windshield or dehumidify the cabin
using the air conditioner and place
the outlet selector knob in the
5or
4position.
Place the air selector lever in the
outside air position.
Nighttime Visibility
If there is an old film on the
windshield, the lights of oncoming
traffic will be reflected in many directions, making it hard for you to
see ahead. Use glass cleaner to
clean the glass and the wiper
blades.
Worn wiper blades cannot wipe the
windshield clean and thus cannot
maintain visibility. When the wiper
blades become worn, replace them
with new ones.
Do Not Attach Accessories to
the Windshield or Windows
{Warning
Do not attach ornaments, films or
other accessories to the
windshield or windows. They
would impair visibility. Also, any
plastic suction cups used to
attach accessories could cause a
fire or other accident by acting as
lenses.
You and others could be seriously
injured.

Driving and Operating 135
Never Stop the Engine While
Driving
{Warning
Do not move the engine control
switch away from the "ON"
position while the vehicle is being
driven.
If the engine stops while the
vehicle is moving, the brake
booster does not work, and the
brakes would not work properly.
The engine could also be
damaged.
Stopping the engine while driving
would be extremely dangerous
because the power steering
would stop working, making the
steering wheel extremely hard
to turn.
Stopping the engine while driving
would be extremely dangerous
because the warning lights,(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
indicator lights and other
electrical circuitry would
completely stop working.
Placing the engine control switch
in the "LOCK" position while
driving would be extremely
dangerous because the key could
come out, causing the steering
wheel to lock so that you could
not turn it.
You and others could be seriously
injured.
Avoid Unnecessary Idling of
the Engine
If the engine idles too long, the
engine coolant temperature will fall
below the operating range. Low
engine operating temperature
causes several conditions that are
harmful to engine operation and life.
Incomplete combustion of fuel in an
engine that is not fully warmed-up
causes crankcase dilution and
forms lacquer and gummy deposits on valves, pistons, and rings. It also
causes rapid accumulation of
sludge within the engine.
Driving at Night
Nighttime driving is more dangerous
than daytime driving because the
field of view is narrower. Keep your
speed down, and maintain an ample
headway distance.
Metallic Plinking Sound from
the Muffler
Immediately after stopping the
engine, you may hear a metallic
plinking sound from the muffler. This
sound occurs as the muffler cools
down and contracts. It does not
indicate an abnormality or
breakdown.
When the Silencer and
Exhaust Pipe are Hot
{Warning
When the engine is running and
immediately after vehicle
operation, the DPF, silencer, and
