snow and ice. After five minutes, turn
on the switch and the blades should
operate normally. If they do not resume
functioning, contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible. Drive to the
side of the road and pull off the side of
the road to a safe location. Wait until

intermittent position or AUTO position,
the wipers will operate continuously
until the lever is released.
Warning!
Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield could lead to a collision. You
might not see other vehicles or other
obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the
windshield during freezing weather, warm
the windshield with defroster before and
during windshield washer use.
If the fluid level is normal and the
washer does not work, contact an
authorized dealer.
With headlight washers
When the headlights are on, the

SYSTEM
Operating Tips
The air conditioning system will only
operate with the engine running.
To prevent the battery from being
discharged while the engine is off, do
not leave the fan control dial on for
extended periods of time.
To improve system efficiency, clear all
obstructions (leaves, snow and ice)
from the hood and the air inlet in the
grille.
Use the air conditioning system to
defog the windows and dehumidify the
air.
Recirculation mode should be used
when driving through tunnels, while in a
traffic jam, or when you would like to
quickly cool the interior by shutting off
the exterior vents.
Use the outside air position for
ventilation or windscreen defrosting.
If the vehicle has been parked in direct
sunlight during hot weather, open the
windows to let warm air escape, and
then run the air conditioning system.
To keep the internal parts lubricated
and the system running smoothly, run
the air conditioner about 10 minutes at
least once a month.

STARTING THE
ENGINE
Starting The Engine
Before starting the engine, adjust the
seat, the interior rear view mirrors, the
door mirrors and fasten the seat belt
correctly.
Warning!
When leaving the vehicle, always
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.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to
children, and do not leave the ignition of a
vehicle equipped with Advanced Keyless
Entry in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A
child could operate power windows, other
controls, or move the vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat
build-up may cause serious injury or death.
Never press the accelerator pedal for
starting the engine.
Models Equipped With A
Manual Transmission
Proceed as follows:
1. Engage the parking brake and place
the gear selector in NEUTRAL.
2. Place the start button in the ACC
mode.
3. Fully depress the clutch pedal
without touching the accelerator.
4. Place the start button in the ON
mode, push and release it as soon as
the engine starts. If the engine does not
start within 10 seconds, push the start
button to OFF mode and wait for
10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure.
Models Equipped With
An Automatic
Transmission
Proceed as follows:
1. Engage the parking brake and place
the gear selector to P (PARK) or N
(NEUTRAL).
2. Fully depress the brake pedal
without touching the accelerator.
3. Place the start button in the ACC
mode. 4. Place the start button in the ON
mode, push and release it as soon as
the engine starts. If the engine does not
start within 10 seconds, push the start
button to OFF mode and wait for
10-15 seconds before repeating the
starting procedure.
Cold Weather Operation
Regarding Cold Start Disable
When the ambient temperature is
extremely low, the engine may not
crank even when the engine starting
procedure is performed. At this time,
the Cold Start Disable Indicator light in
the instrument cluster flashes. However,
this does not indicate a problem.
Perform the necessary procedures (see
“Warning lights And Messages”
paragraph in “Getting To Know Your
Instrument Panel” chapter).
Regarding Ice Breaker
When the ambient temperature is low,
the start of cranking may be delayed
after engine starting procedure is
performed. At this time, the Cold Start
Disable Indicator light in the instrument
cluster illumintes. However, this does
not indicate a problem.
Refer to your authorized dealer
regarding other related parts which are
to be input such as function name,
operating scenario (condition) of each
function, indicator operation, and user
operation/procedure information.

STARTING AND OPERATING

Before replacing a bulb check the
contacts for oxidation.
Replace blown bulbs with others of
the same type and power.
After replacing a headlight bulb,
always check its alignment.
To replace the bulb, contact your
Authorized Dealer.
When a light is not working, check
that the corresponding fuse is intact
before replacing the bulb. For the
location of fuses, refer to the section on
“Replacing Fuses” in this chapter.
Caution!
Use the protective cover and carton for the
replacement bulb to dispose of the old bulb
promptly and out of the reach of children.
Note:
When removing the lens or light unit
using a flathead screwdriver, make
sure that the flathead screwdriver does
not contact the interior terminal. If the
flathead screwdriver contacts the
terminal, a short circuit may occur.
When the weather is cold or damp
or after heavy rain or washing, the
surface of headlights or rear lights may
steam up and/or form drops of
condensation on the inside. This is a
natural phenomenon due to the
difference in temperature and humidity
between the inside and the outside of
the glass which does not indicate a
fault and does not compromise the
normal operation of lighting devices.
The mist disappears quickly when the
lights are turned on, starting from the
center of the diffuser, extending
progressively towards the edges.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

REPLACING FUSES
General Information
Warning!
When replacing a blown fuse, always
use an appropriate replacement fuse with
the same amp rating as the original fuse.
Never replace a fuse with another fuse of
higher amp rating. Never replace a blown
fuse with metal wires or any other material.
Failure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or
disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.
If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system,
gearbox system) or steering system blows,
contact an authorized dealer.
Your vehicle's electrical system is
protected by fuses.
If any lights, accessories, or controls do
not work, inspect the appropriate circuit
protector. If a fuse has blown, the inside
element will be melted. If the same fuse
blows again, go to an Authorized Dealer
as soon as possible. Fuse location
Fuses are grouped together in two fuse
boxes located in the interior on the left
side of the vehicle and under the hood.
Interior Fuses
If the electrical system does not work,
first inspect the fuses on the vehicle's
left side.
Proceed as follows:
1. Make sure the ignition is placed in
the OFF mode, and other switches are
turned off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover (located
near the door).
3. Press retaining clip and remove
protection cover.
4. Pull the fuse straight out with the
fuse puller provided on the fuse block
located in the engine compartment.
5. Inspect the fuse and replace it if it is
blown.
