HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES
WARNING
•If the tires are replaced with different sized
tires, the predicted course lines may not be
displayed correctly.
•On a snow-covered or slippery road, there
may be a difference between the predicted
course lines and the actual course.
•The displayed lines will appear slightly off
to the right because the rear view camera is
not installed in the rear center of the ve-
hicle.
•If the battery is disconnected or becomes
discharged, the predicted course lines may
be displayed incorrectly. If this occurs,
please perform the following procedures: – Turn the steering wheel from lock to lock
while the engine is running.
– Drive the vehicle on a straight road for
more than 5 minutes.
•When the steering wheel is turned with the
ignition switch in the ACC position, the pre-
dicted course lines may be displayed
incorrectly.
The vehicle width and predicted course lines
are wider than the actual width and course.
1. Visually check that the parking space is safebefore parking your vehicle.

WARNING
•The heater and air conditioner operate only
when the engine is running.
•Never leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in the vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently be-
come involved in a serious accident and in-
jure themselves. On hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•Do not use the recirculation mode for long
periods as it may cause the interior air to
become stale and the windows to fog up.
•Do not adjust the heating and air condition-
ing controls while driving so that full atten-
tion may be given to vehicle operation.
The heater and air conditioner operate when the
engine is running. The air blower will operate
even if the engine is turned off and the ignition
switch is in the ON position. NOTE
•Condensation forms inside the air condition-
ing unit when the air conditioner (if
equipped) is running, and is safely dis-
charged underneath your vehicle.
Traces of water on the ground are therefore
normal.
•Odors from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit. Odor
can enter the passenger compartment
through the ventilators.
When parking, set the heater and air condi-
tioner controls to turn off air recirculation to
allow fresh air into the passenger compart-
ment. This should help reduce odors inside
the vehicle.
Observe the settings recommended on the fol-
lowing pages. The windows could otherwise
mist up. To prevent the windows from misting
up
•Switch off climate control only briefly.
•Switch on air-recirculation mode only briefly.
•Switch on the cooling with air dehumidifica-
tion function.
•Switch on the windshield demisting function
briefly, if required. The air-conditioning system/automatic climate
control regulates the temperature and the hu-
midity of the vehicle interior and filters unde-
sirable substances from the air.
The air-conditioning system/automatic climate
control can only be operated when the engine is
running. Optimum operation is only achieved
with the side windows closed.
Always keep the ventilation flaps behind the
side panelling clear. Otherwise the vehicle will
not be ventilated correctly.
NOTE
•Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period during
warm weather. This will speed up the cooling
process and the desired interior temperature
will be reached more quickly.
•The integrated filter filters out most particles
of dust and soot and completely filters out
pollen. With automatic climate control, gas-
eous pollutants and odors will also be re-
duced. A clogged filter reduces the amount
of air supplied to the vehicle interior. For this
reason, you should always observe the inter-
val for replacing the filter, which is specified
in the Service Booklet. As this depends on
environmental conditions, e.g. heavy air pol-
lution, the interval may be shorter than
stated in the Service Booklet.

AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
•The driver must not attempt to operate the
audio system while the vehicle is in motion,
so that full attention may be given to vehicle
operation.
•Park the vehicle in a safe location and apply
the parking brake before operating the au-
dio system and playing movies (if
equipped).
CAUTION
•Operate the audio system only when the
vehicle engine is running. Operating the au-
dio system for extended periods of time
with the engine turned off can discharge the
vehicle battery.
•Do not allow the system to get wet. Exces-
sive moisture such as spilled liquids may
cause the system to malfunction.
Radio
Turn the ignition switch to the ACC or ON
position before turning on the radio. If you
listen to the radio when the engine is not
running, the ignition switch should be pushed
to the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external
influences. Intermittent changes in reception
quality are normally caused by these external
influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle may
influence radio reception quality.
Radio reception
Your radio system is equipped with state-of-the-
art electronic circuits to enhance radio recep-
tion. These circuits are designed to extend
reception range, and to enhance the quality of
that reception.
However there are some general characteristics
of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect
radio reception quality in a moving vehicle,
even when the best quality equipment is used.
These characteristics are completely normal in
a given reception area, and do not indicate any
malfunction in your radio system.Reception conditions will constantly change
because of vehicle movement. Buildings, ter-
rain, signal distance and interference from
other vehicles can adversely affect ideal recep-
tion. Described below are some of the factors
that can affect radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to come
from the audio system speakers. Storing the
device in a different location may reduce or
eliminate the noise.
