NOTE
When the Stop/Start System indicator illumi-
nates, the engine starts running automatically
under at least one of the following conditions:
• The battery voltage becomes low (due to elec-
trical load from other vehicle systems like
headlights, heaters, etc., or auxiliary devices
connected to the 12 volt socket inside the
vehicle).
• The vehicle speed is above about
2km/h (1
MPH).
• The front defogger is operated.
• When the temperature inside the vehicle is
too high or low. (When the air conditioner is
off, the Stop/Start System will operate.)
• When the front defogger is turned on. (The
engine may not start depending on the out-
side temperature.)
• When the battery capacity is low.
• When the power consumption is high.
• When the clutch pedal is depressed.
CAUTION
Only engage gear when the clutch pedal is fully
depressed. NOTE
The following conditions will prevent the Stop/
Start System from automatically restarting the
engine. Starting the engine with the ignition
switch operation is then necessary:
• The driver’s seat belt is unfastened, and driv-
er’s door is open.
• The bonnet is open.
Use this system while waiting at stoplight, etc. When
the vehicle is stopped for long periods of time, turn
off the engine.
When the engine is stopped by the Stop/Start Sys-
tem, heating, cooling and dehumidifying functions
will be deactivated. To avoid the air conditioning
functions from being deactivated, turn off the Idling
Stop mode by pressing the Stop/Start OFF switch.

Lights*:
Clean the headlights on
aregular basis. Make sure
that the headlights, stop lights, tail lights, turn signal
lights, and other lights are all operating properly and
installed securely. Also check the aim of the head-
lights.
Tyres*:
Check the pressure with agauge often and always
prior to long distance trips. Adjust the pressure in all
tyres, including the spare, to the pressure specified.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear.
Tyre rotation*:
In the case of Two-Wheel Drive (2WD), and where
front and rear tyres are the same size: tyres should
be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). Tyres
marked with directional indicators can only be ro-
tated between front and rear. Make sure that the
directional indicators point in the direction of wheel
rotation after the tyre rotation is completed.
In the case of the Four-Wheel Drive and All Wheel
Drive (4WD/AWD), and where front and rear tyres
are the same size: tyres should be rotated every
5,000 km (3,000 miles). Tyres marked with direc-
tional indicators can only be rotated between front
and rear. Make sure that the directional indicators
point in the direction of wheel rotation after the tyre
rotation is completed.
In the case that front tyres are different size from
rear tyres: tyres cannot be rotated.
The timing for tyre rotation may vary according to
your driving habits and the road surface conditions. Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
transmitter components (where fitted):
Replace the TPMS transmitter grommet seal, valve
core and cap when the tyres are replaced due to
wear or age.
Wheel alignment and balance:
If the vehicle should pull to either side while driving
on astraight and level road, or if you detect uneven
or abnormal tyre wear, there may be aneed for
wheel alignment. If the steering wheel or seat vi-
brates at normal highway speeds, wheel balancing
may be needed.
Windscreen:
Clean the windscreen on aregular basis. Check the
windscreen at least every six months for cracks or
other damage. Repair as necessary.
Wiper blades*:
Check for cracks or wear if not functioning cor-
rectly. Replace as necessary.
Inside vehicle
The maintenance items listed here should be
checked on aregular basis, such as when perform-
ing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle, etc.
Accelerator pedal:
Check the pedal for smooth operation and make
sure that the pedal does not catch or require uneven
effort. Keep the floor mats away from the pedal. Brake pedal*:
Check the pedal for smooth operation and make
sure that it is the proper distance from the floor mat
when depressed fully. Check the brake booster
function. Be sure to keep the floor mats away from
the pedal.
Parking brake*:
Check the parking brake operation regularly. Check
that the lever (where fitted) or the pedal (where fit-
ted) has the proper travel. Also make sure that the
vehicle is held securely on
afairly steep hill when
only the parking brake is applied.
Seat belts:
Check that all parts of the seat belt system (for
example, buckles, anchors, adjusters and retrac-
tors) operate properly and smoothly, and are in-
stalled securely. Check the belt webbing for cuts,
fraying, wear or damage.
Steering wheel:
Check for changes in the steering condition, such
as excessive play, hard steering or strange noises.
Warning lights and chimes:
Make sure that all warning lights and chimes are
operating properly.
Windscreen defogger:
Check that the air comes out of the defogger outlets
properly and in good quantity when operating the
heater or air conditioner.

Extended storage fuse switch
(where fitted) To reduce battery drain, the extended storage fuse
switch comes from the factory switched off. Prior to
delivery of your vehicle, the switch is pushed in
(switched on) and should always remain on.
