Remove the keyless operation key from the
key slot after starting the engine or changing the operation mode.NOTEl Do not insert into the key slot anything other
than the keyless operation key. This couldcause damage or a malfunction.
l Remove the object or additional key from
the the keyless operation key before insert-ing the key into the key slot. The vehicle
may not be able to receive the registered ID
code from the registered key. Therefore, the engine may not start and the operation mode
may not change.
l The keyless operation key is fixed, if the key
is inserted in the key slot as illustrated.
When pulling out the key, pull out in the state.Keyless operation key remind-
er*
E00633001059
If the operation mode is in OFF and the driv- er’s door is opened with the keyless operationkey in the key slot, the warning lamp will
blink and the outer buzzer sounds for approx- imately 3 seconds and the inner buzzer
sounds for approximately 1 minute to remind
you to remove the key.
Diesel particulate filter
(DPF) E00619801457
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a device that captures most of the particulate matter
(PM) in the exhaust emissions of the diesel engine. The DPF automatically burns away trapped PM during vehicle operation. Under
certain driving conditions, however, the DPF is not able to burn away all of the trapped PM
and, as a result, an excessive amount of PM accumulates inside it.WARNINGl The DPF reaches very high temperatures.
Do not park your vehicle in areas where combustible materials such as dry grass
or leaves can come in contact with a hot exhaust system since a fire could occur.CAUTIONl Do not use any type of fuel or engine oil that
is not specified for your vehicle. Also, do not use any moisture-removing agent or oth-
er fuel additive. Such substances could have a detrimental effect on the DPF.
Refer to “Fuel selection” on page 2-02 and
“Engine oil” on page 10-05.

WARNINGlIn the case where the condition of the
road is different for the right tyre to drive
from the left tyre (such as one tyre on a paved road and the other on ice), direc- tion of the vehicle may change abruptly
when engine braking or accelerating.
Do not use the rear differential lock ex-
cept when making an emergency escape on a snow or frozen road, but drive with
4WD.4-wheel drive operation*
E00606602171
By selecting 4-wheel drive, both axles of the
vehicle are rigidly connected with each other. This improves the traction characteristics. When turning sharp corners or moving for-
ward and backward repeatedly, however, the drive line is stressed, which is felt as a brak-
ing effect. A 4-wheel drive vehicle can accel-
erate more quickly and smoothly.
However, note that the braking distance is not shorter than that of a rear-wheel drive ve-hicle.
When using 4-wheel drive on rough roads
(snow, mud, sand, etc.), it is important to op- erate the vehicle correctly.NOTEl The driving posture should be more upright
and closer to the wheel than usual; adjust the
seat to a good position for easy steering and pedal operation. Be sure to wear the seatbelt.
l After driving on rough roads, check each
part of the vehicle and wash it thoroughlywith water. Refer to the “Vehicle care” sec-
tion and “Inspection and maintenance fol-
lowing rough road operation” on page 6-52.Driving on dry paved road and
highway
Select “2H” position (Easy select 4WD),
“2H” or “4H” position (Super select 4WD II) to drive on the dry paved road. Especially on
dry highway, never select the “4H” or “4L”
position (Easy select 4WD), “4HLc” or “4LLc” position (Super select 4WD II).
CAUTIONl Selecting “4H” or “4L” position (Easy select
4WD), “4HLc” or “4LLc” position (Super
select 4WD II) to drive on dry paved road will increase the fuel consumption with pos-sible noise generation and early tyre wear.It may also increase the differential oil tem-
perature, resulting in possible damage to the driving system.
Further, the drive train will be subjected to
excessive loading, possibly leading to oil leakage, component seizure, or other serious faults.
Driving on snowy or icy roads
Set the drive mode-selector to “4H” position
(Easy select 4WD), “4H” or “4HLc” position in accordance with the road conditions (Su-
per select 4WD II) and then gradually de-
press the accelerator pedal for a smooth start. Keep the pressure on the accelerator pedal asconstant as possible, and drive at low speed.

NOTElFlange nuts can be temporarily used on the
steel spare wheel as shown in the illustra- tion, but return to the original wheel and tyre
as soon as possible.CAUTIONl Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or
the nuts, or they will tighten too much.NOTEl If all 4 aluminium wheels are changed to
steel wheels. e. g. when fitting winter tyres,
use tapered nuts.
9. Put the notch (K) provided on the jack
handle end on the valve (L) of the jack.
Using the jack handle, turn the release valve anticlockwise slowly to lower thevehicle until the tyre touches the ground.
WARNINGl Be sure to open the release valve slowly. If
it is opened quickly, the vehicle will drop
abruptly and the jack may come out of
position, causing a serious accident.
10. Tighten the nuts crisscross in 2 or 3
steps until each nut has been tightened securely.

Tightening torqueSteel wheel: 137 to 157 N•m
Aluminium wheel: 118 to 137 N•m
(Achieved by applying a force at the
end of the wheel nut wrench supplied with the vehicle.
Steel wheel: 510 to 580 N•m
Aluminium wheel: 440 to 500 N•m)CAUTIONl Never use your foot or a pipe extension for
extra force in the wheel nut wrench. If you
do so, you will tighten the nut too much.
11. Lower the jack all the way and remove
it.

8-22OKTE17E1For emergencies8Type 2

CAUTIONlIf the release valve is loosened too much (2
or more turns) in the anticlockwise direction, the jack’s oil will leak and the jack cannot
be used.
l Close the release valve slowly when lower-
ing the vehicle, or the valve may be dam-
aged.NOTEl Occasionally when the vehicle is jacked up,
the grooved portion of the designated pointwill not come off. When this happens, rock
the vehicle to lower the ram.
l If the jack is difficult to remove by hand, in-
sert the jack handle (M) into the bracket (N).
Then using the handle, remove the jack.
12. Press the piston down all the way, and
turn the release valve clockwise as far as possible.
13. Check your tyre inflation pressure. The
correct pressures are shown on the door
label. See the illustration.CAUTIONl The tyre pressure should be periodically
checked and maintained at the specified pressure while the tyre is stowed.
l After changing the tyre and driving the vehi-
cle about 1,000 km (620 miles), retighten the
wheel nuts to make sure that they have not come loose.
l If the steering wheel vibrates when driving
after changing the tyre, we recommend you to have the tyres checked for balance.
l Do not mix one type of tyre with another or
use a different size from the one listed. This
would cause early wear and poor handling.To store the spare wheel
E00803701512
1. Install the hanger disc (A) in the wheel
disc hole.
2. Turn the wheel nut wrench (B) clock-
wise to wind up the chain.
How to change a tyre
8-23OKTE17E1For emergencies8 AHZ101131

NOTElConfirm that the hanger disc is securely fit-
ted in the wheel disc hole when the wheel isjust lifted off the ground.
3. After winding up the spare wheel suffi-
ciently, make sure it is not loose (the tightening torque should be approxi-
mately 40 N•m (achieved by applying a force of 200 N at the end of the wheel nut wrench.)) then withdraw the jack
handle, taking care not to turn it in the
reverse direction.
CAUTIONl The spare wheel should always be securely
in position.
If a flat tyre is changed, put the flat tyre in
the spare wheel mounting position with the wheel outer surface upward, and use the wheel nut wrench to secure it firmly.
l When installing the spare wheel, please ob-
serve the followings. If you do not follow
them, it could result in break the spare wheel
carrier.
• Do not use the power tool.
Use the wheel nut wrench stowed on the vehicle.
• Do not apply a force of 400 N or more at
the end of the wheel nut wrench.
4. Have your damaged tyre repaired as
soon as possible.
To store the tools, jack and
jack handle

Reverse the removing procedure when stor-
ing the jack, jack handle and wheel nut
wrench.
Refer to “Tools, jack and jack handle” on page 8-12.
