Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission -
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink to pick up the signal during
programming.
Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S.
gate operators are designed to
“time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
by using the “Programming”
procedures (regardless of where you
live), replace “Programming HomeLink”
step three with the following:
Note:If programming a garage door
opener or gate operator, it is advised to
unplug the device during the “cycling”
process to prevent possible
overheating.
1. Continue to press and hold the
HomeLink button while you press and
release -every two seconds (“cycle”)
your hand-held transmitter until the

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Note:
When DSC is on and you attempt
to free the vehicle when it is stuck, or
drive it out of freshly fallen snow, the
TCS (part of the DSC system) will
activate. Depressing the accelerator
will not increase engine power and
freeing the vehicle may be difficult.
When this happens, turn off the
TCS/DSC.
If the TCS/DSC is off when the
engine is turned off, it automatically
activates when the ignition is placed in
the ON mode.
If the switch is pressed and held for
10 seconds or more, the switch
malfunction detection function
operates and the DSC system
activates automatically. The indicator
light turns off while the DSC system is
operative.
Warning!
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) cannot
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase
the traction afforded by prevailing road
conditions. DSC cannot prevent accidents,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, driving on very slippery
surfaces, or hydroplaning. DSC also cannot
prevent accidents resulting from loss of
vehicle control due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions. Only a safe,
attentive, and skillful driver can prevent
accidents. The capabilities of an DSC
equipped vehicle must never be exploited
in a reckless or dangerous manner which
could jeopardize the user’s safety or the
safety of others.
Vehicle modifications, or failure to
properly maintain your vehicle, may change
the handling characteristics of your vehicle,
and may negatively affect the performance
of the DSC system. Changes to the
steering system, suspension, braking
system, tire type and size or wheel size
may adversely affect DSC performance.
Improperly inflated and unevenly worn tires
may also degrade DSC performance. Any
vehicle modification or poor vehicle
maintenance that reduces the effectiveness
of the DSC system can increase the risk of
loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover,
personal injury and death.
AUXILIARY DRIVING
SYSTEMS
Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) System
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
system is designed to assist the driver
in checking the area to the rear of the
vehicle on both sides during lane
changes by alerting the driver to the
presence of vehicles approaching from
the rear in an adjacent lane.
The system detects vehicles
approaching from the rear while
traveling in the forward direction at a
speed of 18 mph (30 km/h) or faster
and turns on the warning lights
equipped on the door mirrors
depending on the conditions.
If the turn signal lever is operated to
signal a lane change in the direction in
which the warning light is illuminated,
the system warns the driver of a vehicle
in the detection area by flashing the
warning light and activating a beep
sound.

reaction to stationary objects on the
road or the roadside such as guardrails,
tunnels, sidewalls, and parked vehicles.
A BSM warning lights may flash or the
warning beep may be activated several
times when making a turn at a city
intersection.
Turn off the BSM system while pulling a
trailer or while an accessory such as a
bicycle carrier is installed to the rear of
the vehicle. Otherwise, the radar’s sound system waves will be blocked
causing the system to not operate
normally.
In the following cases, it may be difficult
to view the illumination/flashing of the
BSM warning lights equipped on the
door mirrors:
Snow or ice is adhering to the door
mirrors.
The door glass is fogged or covered
in snow, frost or dirt.
The system switches to the Rear Cross
Traffic Alert function when the gear
selector is shifted to the Reverse (R)
position.
BSM Warning Lights
The BSM warning lights are equipped
on the left and right door mirrors. The warning lights turn on when a
vehicle approaching from the rear in an
adjacent lane is detected.
When the ignition is switched ON, the
malfunction warning light turns on
momentarily and then turns off after a
few seconds.
Forward Driving (BSM System
Operation)
The BSM system detects vehicles
approaching from the rear and turns on
the warning lights equipped on the door
mirrors according to the conditions.
Additionally, while a warning light is
illuminated, if the turn signal lever is
operated to signal a turn in the direction
in which the warning light is illuminated,
the warning light flashes.
Reverse Driving (RCTA System

Note:
When the ignition is switched off,
the condition before the system was
turned off is maintained. For example,
if the ignition is switched OFF while the
BSM and RCTA systems are
operational, the BSM and RCTA
systems remain operational the next
time the ignition is switched ON.
The BSM and RCTA systems are
turned off when the battery is
disconnected such as when the
battery terminals or fuses have been
removed and reinstalled. To turn the
BSM and RCTA systems back on,
push the BSM switch.
RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic Alert)
Function
The RCTA system is designed to assist
the driver in checking the area to the
rear of the vehicle on both sides while
the vehicle is reversing by alerting the
driver to the presence of vehicles
approaching the rear of the vehicle.
The RCTA system detects vehicles
approaching from the left and right
sides of the vehicle while the vehicle is
reversing out of a parking space, and
notifies the driver of possible danger
using the BSM warning lights and the
warning buzzer. RCTA Operation
The RCTA system operates when the
gear selector is shifted to the Reverse
(R) position.
If there is the possibility of a collision
with an approaching vehicle, the BSM
warning light flashes and the warning
beep is activated simultaneously.

TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
Tire Pressure Monitoring System —
Lo/Hi Grade
The TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring
System) monitors the air pressure of all
four tires.
If the air pressure of one or more tires is
too low, the system warns the driver by
indicating the
warning light in the
instrument cluster and operating a
beep.
The system monitors the tire pressures
indirectly using the data sent from the
ABS wheel speed sensors.
To allow the system to operate
correctly, the system needs to be
initialized with the specified tire pressure
(value on the tire placard label). Follow
the procedure and perform the
initialization (refer to “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Initialization”
paragraph).
The
warning light flashes when the
system has a malfunction.
Because this system detects slight
changes in tire conditions, the timing of
the warning may be faster or slower in
the following cases:
The size, manufacturer, or the type of
tires is different from the specification.
The size, manufacturer, or the type of
a tire is different from the others, or the
level of tire wear is excessively different
between them.
