Power foldable outside mirrors
CAUTION
.Do not touch the mirrors while they
are moving. Your hand may be
pinched, and the mirror may mal-
function.
. Do not drive with the mirrors stored.
You will be unable to see behind the
vehicle.
. If the mirrors were folded or un-
folded by hand, there is a chance
that the mirror will move forward or backward during driving. If the mir-
rors were folded or unfolded by
hand, be sure to adjust them again
electrically before driving.
The outside mirror remote control operates
when the ignition switch is in the ACC or ON
position.
To fold the outside mirrors, push the outside
mirror folding switch to the “CLOSE” position
*1. To unfold, push to the “OPEN” position*2.
If mirrors are manually operated or bumped, the
mirror body can become loose at the pivot point.
To correct electronic mirror operation, cycle the
mirrors by pushing “CLOSE” until completely
closed, then push “OPEN” until the mirrors are
in the open position.
Reverse tilt-down feature (if so
equipped)
When backing up the vehicle, the right and left
outside mirrors will turn downward automatically
to provide better rear visibility.
1. Place the ignition switch in the ON position.
2. Move the shift lever to the R (Reverse) position.
3. Choose the right or left outside mirror by operating the outside mirror control switch.

Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the Rear-
View Monitor system could result in
serious injury or death.
.The RearView Monitor is a conve-
nience but it is not a substitute for
proper backing. Always turn and
look out the windows, and check
mirrors to be sure that it is safe to
move before operating the vehicle.
Always back up slowly.
. The system is designed as an aid to
the driver in showing large station-
ary objects directly behind the vehi-
cle, to help avoid damaging the
vehicle.
. The distance guide line and the
vehicle width line should be used
as a reference only when the vehicle
is on a level paved surface. The
distance viewed on the monitor is
for reference only and may be
different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed
objects.

REARVIEW MONITOR (if so
equipped)
.When strong light is directly coming on the
camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
. Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper.
. The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light.
. The colors of objects on the RearView
Monitor may differ somewhat from the actual
color of objects.
. Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark environment.
. There may be a delay when switching to the
RearView Monitor.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the RearView Monitor may not
display object clearly. Clean the camera.
. Do not use wax on the camera window.
Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth
dampened with mild detergent diluted with
water.

SONAR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the sonar function. Failure to oper-
ate the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in ser-
ious injury or death.
.Inclement weather or ultrasonic
sources such as an automatic car
wash, a truck’ s compressed-air
brakes or a pneumatic drill may affect the function of the system,
including reduced performance or a
false activation.
. This function is designed as an aid
to the driver in detecting large
stationary objects to help avoid
damaging the vehicle.
. The system is not designed to pre-
vent contact with small or moving
objects.
. The system will not detect small
objects below the bumper, and may
not detect objects close to the
bumper or on the ground.
. The system may not detect the
following objects:
— Fluffy objects such as snow,
cloth, cotton, grass or wool.
— Thin objects such as rope, wire or chain.
— Wedge-shaped objects.
. If your vehicle sustains damage to
the bumper fascia, leaving it mis-
aligned or bent, the sensing zone
may be altered causing inaccurate
measurement of objects or false
alarms.
CAUTION
Excessive noise (such as audio system
volume or an open vehicle window) will
interfere with the tone and it may not be
heard.
SYSTEM TEMPORARILY UNAVAIL-
ABLE
When the amber markers are displayed at the
corners of the vehicle icon and the function
cannot be activated from the Camera setting
menu (the setting items are grayed out) , the
sonar system may be malfunctioning.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Keep the surface of the sonar sensors
(located on the front and rear bumper
fascia) free from accumulations of
snow, ice and dirt. Do not scratch the
surface of the sonar sensors when
cleaning. If the sensors are covered,
the accuracy of the sonar function will
be diminished.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle
in accordance with these system limita-
tions could result in serious injury or
death.
. Do not use the MOD system when
towing a trailer. The system may not
function properly.
. Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume or open vehicle
window) will interfere with the
chime sound, and it may not be
heard.
. The MOD system performance will
be limited according to environmen-
tal conditions and surrounding ob-
jects such as:
— When there is low contrast be-
tween background and the mov-
ing objects.
— When there is blinking source of light.

Adjust the air flow direction of the ventilators by
moving the center knob (up/down, left/right)
until the desired position is achieved.
WARNING
.The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is
running.
. Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. On
hot, sunny days, temperatures 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
conditioning controls while driving
so that full attention may be given
to vehicle operation.
Start the engine and operate the heater and air
conditioner system.

Automatic operation
Cooling and/or dehumidified heating
(AUTO):
This mode may be used all year round. The
system works automatically to control the inside
temperature, air flow distribution and fan speed
after the preferred temperature is set manually.
1. Push the “AUTO” button on. (The indicator
on the button will illuminate and AUTO will
be displayed.)

side temperature control button is turned,
the DUAL indicator will come on. To turn off
the passenger side temperature control,
push the “DUAL” button.
4. To turn off the heater and air conditioner system, push the “OFF” button.
A visible mist may be seen coming from the
ventilators in hot, humid conditions as the air is
cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a mal-
function.
Dehumidified defrosting or defogging:
1. Push the “
” front defroster button. (The
indicator light on the button will illuminate.)
2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature.

clean, push the “AUTO” button to return to
the auto mode.
. When the “
” front defroster button is
pushed, the air conditioner will automatically
be turned on at outside temperatures above
238F( í58C) to defog the windshield, and
the air recirculate mode will automatically be
turned off.
Outside air is drawn into the passenger
compartment to improve the defogging
performance.
Manual operation
Fan speed control:
Push the fan speed increase “
” or decrease
“” buttons to manually control the fan speed.
Push the “AUTO” button to return to automatic
control of the fan speed.
Temperature control:

: Air flows from center and side ventilators and foot outlets.
: Air flows mainly from foot outlets.
: Air flows from defroster and foot outlets.
Air intake control:
. Push the “
” air recirculation button to
recirculate interior air inside the vehicle. The
“
” indicator light on the button will come
on. The air recirculation mode cannot be
activated when the air conditioner is in the
front defrosting mode “
”.
. Push the “
” outside air circulation button
to draw outside air into the passenger
compartment. The “
” indicator light on the button will come on.

switch to automatic control.
Turning the system off
Push the OFF button.
Upper vent system
When the upper vent “” button is pushed,
the air flow against the driver’s or passenger’s
upper body becomes gentle. The indicator light
