•A new CD may have rough edges on its
inner and outer perimeters. If a disc with
rough edges is used, proper setting will
not be possible and the CD player will
not play the CD. In addition, the disc
may not eject resulting in a malfunction.
Remove the rough edges in advance by
using a ball-point pen or pencil as
shown in the following figure. To
remove the rough edges, rub the side of
the pen or pencil against the inner and
outer perimeter of the CD.
•When driving over uneven surfaces, the
sound may jump.
•CDs bearing the logo shown in the
illustration can be played. No other discs
can be played.
•Use discs that have been legitimately
produced. If illegally-copied discs such
as pirated discs are used, the system
may not operate properly.
•Be sure never to touch the signal surface
when handling the CDs. Pick up a CD
by grasping the outer edge or the edge
of the hole and the outer edge.
•Do not stick paper or tape on the CD.
Avoid scratching the reverse side (the
side without a label). The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.
•Dust, finger smudges, and dirt can
decrease the amount of light reflected
from the signal surface, thus affecting
sound quality. If the CD should become
soiled, gently wipe it with a soft cloth
from the centre of the CD to the edge.

Once the flexible maintenance is selected, the vehicle calculat es the remaining oil life based on engine
operating conditions and lets you know when an oil change is du e by illuminating the wrench indicator light in
the instrument cluster.
Reset the engine oil data wheneve r replacing the engine oil regardless of the message/wrench indicator light
display.
*4 If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the followin g conditions, replace the engine oil and oil filter at
every 10,000 km (6,250 miles) or shorter.
a) Purpose of vehicle use is poli ce car, taxi or driving school car.
b) Driving in dusty conditions
c) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
d) Driving for long period in cold temperatures or driving regul arly at short distance only

*10 Use of FL-22 is recommended wh en replacing engine coolant. Using engine coolant other than FL-22 may
cause serious damage to the engine and cooling system.
