IGNITION SWITCH
Push Button Start
Positions
The system operates only when the key
fob is within operational range.
Each time the keyless ignition
START/STOP button is pushed, the
ignition cycles in the order of OFF, ACC,
and ON. Pushing the START/STOP
button again from ON position cycles
the ignition to the OFF position.
Note:
The engine starts by pushing the
keyless ignition START/STOP button
while depressing the clutch pedal
(manual transmission) or the brake
pedal (automatic transmission). To
change the ignition position, push the keyless ignition START/STOP button
without depressing the clutch or brake
pedal.
Do not leave the ignition in the ON
position while the engine is not
running, doing so could result in the
battery being discharged. If the ignition
is left in ACC position (for automatic
transmission, the gear selector is in the
P position, and the ignition is in ACC),
the ignition cycles to the OFF position
automatically after about 25 minutes.
OFF
The power supply to electrical devices
turns off and the keyless ignition start
indicator light (amber) also turns off. In
the OFF position, the steering wheel is
locked.
ACC (Accessory)
Some electrical accessories will operate
and the indicator light (amber)
illuminates. In the ACC position, the
steering wheel is unlocked.
The Keyless Entry System does not
function while the keyless ignition has
been placed in the ACC position, and
the doors will not lock/unlock even if
they have been locked manually.
ON
This is the normal running position after
the engine is started. Note:
The indicator light (amber) turns off (the
indicator light amber illuminates when
the ignition has been placed in the ON
position and the engine is not running).
Some indicator lights/warning lights
should be inspected before the engine
is started.
When the keyless ignition has been
placed in the ON position, the sound of
the fuel pump motor operating near the
fuel tank can be heard. This does not
indicate an abnormality.
Warning!
Never use the PARK position as a
substitute for the parking brake. Always
apply the parking brake fully when parked
to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.
When leaving the vehicle, always make
sure the ignition is in the OFF mode,
remove the key fob from the vehicle, and
lock your vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle
unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the transmission gear
selector.

Adjusting The Image
Quality
The image quality can be adjusted with
the gear selector in the REVERSE (R)
position.
Four adjustments can be made:
brightness, contrast, tint and color. Give
attention to the vehicle’s surroundings
while making adjustments:
1. Select the icon on the top left of the
screen to display the tabs.
2. Select the desired tab.
3. Use the cursor to adjust the
brightness, contrast, tint and color. If a
reset is needed, press the reset button.
4. Select the icon on the top left of the
screen to close the tabs.
Warning!
Adjusting the rear-view camera image
quality must always be done when the
vehicle is stationary. Do not adjust the
rear-view camera image quality while
vehicle driving. Adjusting the image quality
(brightness, contrast, color and tint) of the
rear-view camera while driving the vehicle
is dangerous since it could distract the
driver and cause a serious accident.
REFUELING THE
VEHICLE
Refueling The Vehicle
Stop the engine before refueling.
Fuel Requirements
Vehicles with catalytic converters or
oxygen sensors must use ONLY
UNLEADED FUEL, which will reduce
exhaust emissions and keep spark plug
fouling to a minimum.
Fuel: Premium unleaded fuel.
Octane Rating (Anti-knock index): 91
(R + M)/2 method or above (96 RON or
above) (U.S. federal law requires that
octane ratings be posted on gasoline
station pumps).
Regular unleaded fuel with an octane
rating from 87 to 90 (91 to 95 RON) can
be used, but this will reduce
performance slightly, such as reduced
engine output, and engine knocking.
Fuel with a rating lower than 87 octane
(91 RON) will negatively affect the
emission control system performance
and could also cause engine knocking
and serious engine damage.
While operating on gasoline with an
octane number of 87, hearing a light
knocking sound from the engine is not
a cause for concern. However, if the
engine is heard making a heavy
knocking sound, see your Authorized
Dealer immediately. Use of gasoline
with an octane number lower than
07080914-111-111Image Quality Adjustments

87 can cause engine failure and may
void or not be covered by the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. Poor quality
gasoline can cause problems such as
hard starting, stalling, and hesitations. If
you experience these symptoms, try
another brand of gasoline before
considering service for the vehicle.
Gasoline blended with oxygenates such
as alcohol or ether compounds are
generally referred to as oxygenated
fuels.
The common gasoline blend that can
be used with your vehicle is ethanol
blended at no more than 15%. Gasoline
containing alcohol, such as ethanol or
methanol, may be marketed under the
name "Gasohol".
Vehicle damage and problems resulting
from the use of the following may not
be covered by the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty:
Alcohol containing more than 15%
ethanol.
Gasoline or alcohol containing
methanol.
Leaded fuel or leaded alcohol.
Reformulated Gasoline
Many areas of the country require the
use of cleaner burning gasoline referred
to as “Reformulated Gasoline”.
Reformulated gasoline contains
oxygenates and are specifically blended to reduce vehicle emissions and
improve air quality.
The use of reformulated gasoline is
recommended. Properly blended
reformulated gasoline will provide
improved performance and durability of
engine and fuel system components.
Gasoline/Oxygenate
Blends
Some fuel suppliers blend unleaded
gasoline with oxygenates such as
ethanol.
Caution!
DO NOT use gasoline containing methanol
or gasoline containing more than 15%
ethanol (E-15). Use of these blends may
result in starting and drivability problems,
damage critical fuel system components,
cause emissions to exceed the applicable
standard, and/or cause the “Malfunction
Indicator Light” to illuminate. Please
observe pump labels as they should clearly
communicate if a fuel contains greater than
15% ethanol (E-15).
Problems that result from using
gasoline containing more than 15%
ethanol (E-15) or gasoline containing
methanol are not the responsibility of
the manufacturer and may void or not
be covered under New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
E-85 Usage In Non-Flex
Fuel Vehicles
Non-Flex Fuel Vehicles (FFV) are
compatible with gasoline containing up
to 15% ethanol (E-15). Gasoline with
higher ethanol content may void the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
If a Non-FFV vehicle is inadvertently
fueled with E-85 fuel, the engine will
have some or all of these symptoms:
Operate in a lean mode.
OBD II “Malfunction Indicator Light”
on.
Poor engine performance.
Poor cold start and cold drivability.
Increased risk for fuel system
component corrosion.
MMT In Gasoline
Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese
Tricarbonyl (MMT) is a manganese-
containing metallic additive that is
blended into some gasoline to increase
octane. Gasoline blended with MMT
provides no performance advantage
beyond gasoline of the same octane
number without MMT. Gasoline blended
with MMT reduces spark plug life and
reduces emissions system performance
in some vehicles. The manufacturer
recommends that gasoline without
MMT be used in your vehicle. The MMT
content of gasoline may not be
indicated on the gasoline pump,

economy, and life of the vehicle:
Do not race the engine.
Do not maintain one constant speed,
either slow or fast, for a long period of
time.
Do not drive constantly at full-throttle
or high engine rpm for extended
periods of time.
Avoid unnecessary hard stops.
Avoid full-throttle starts.
Saving Fuel And
Protection Of The
Environment
How you operate your vehicle
determines how far it will travel on a
tankoffuel.
Use these suggestions to help save fuel
and reduce CO
2:
Avoid long warm-ups. Once the
engine runs smoothly, begin driving.
Avoid fast starts.
Drive at lower speeds.
Anticipate when to apply the brakes
(avoid sudden braking).
Follow the maintenance schedule
and contact your Authorized Dealer.
Use the air conditioner only when
necessary.
Slow down on rough roads.
Keep the tires properly inflated.
Do not carry unnecessary weight.
Do not rest your foot on the brake
pedal while driving.
Keep the wheels in correct
alignment.
Keep windows closed at high
speeds.
Slow down when driving in
crosswinds and headwinds.
Hazardous Driving
