Caution (Continued)
premature wear and earlier
replacement. Follow this
breaking-in guideline every
time you get new brake
linings.
Following break-in, engine speed
and load can be gradually
increased.
Ignition Positions
The ignition lock is designed so that
the ignition switch cannot be turned
to the LOCK position until the shift
lever is moved to the P (Park)
position.
. When placing the ignition switch
in the LOCK position, make sure
that the shift lever is in the
P (Park) position.
. When removing the key from the
ignition switch (if it is inserted),
make sure that the shift lever is
in the P (Park) position.
When the ignition switch cannot be
placed to the LOCK position: 1. Shift the shift lever to the P (Park) position.
2. Move the ignition switch slightly in the ON direction.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.
4. Remove the key if it is inserted in the ignition switch.{Warning
Turning off the vehicle while
moving may cause loss of power
assist in the brake and steering
systems and disable the airbags.
While driving, only shut the
vehicle off in an emergency.
If the ignition switch is placed to the
LOCK position, the shift lever
cannot be moved from the P (Park)
position.
The shift lever can be moved if the
ignition switch is in the ON position
and the brake pedal is pressed.
There is an OFF position between
the LOCK and ACC positions. The
OFF position is indicated by a “1”on
the key cylinder.
Caution
Using a tool to force the key to
turn in the ignition could cause
damage to the switch or break the

the assistance of others,
or pets unattended in your
vehicle. Additionally, the
temperature inside a closed
vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high
enough to cause a
significant risk of injury or
death to people and pets.
To release the parking brake: 1. Shift the transmission to P (Park). Hold the brake
pedal down.
2. Pull the parking brake handle up until you can press the
release button.
3. Hold the release button in as you move the brake handle all
the way down.
Caution
Driving with the parking brake on
can overheat the brake system
and cause premature wear or
damage to brake system parts.
Make sure that the parking brake
is fully released and the brake
warning light is off before driving.
Parking Brake Break-in
Break-in the brake shoes whenever
the effect of the parking brake is
weakened or whenever the brake
shoes and/or drums are replaced, in
order to assure the best brake
performance. This procedure can be
performed at the dealer.
Hill Start Assist (HSA)
{Warning
. Never rely solely on the hill
start assist system to
prevent the vehicle from
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
moving backward on a hill.
Always drive carefully and
attentively. Depress the
brake pedal when the
vehicle is stopped on a
steep hill. Be especially
careful when stopped on a
hill on frozen or muddy
roads. Failure to prevent the
vehicle from rolling
backwards may result in a
loss of control of the vehicle
and possible serious injury
or death.
. The hill start assist system
is not designed to hold the
vehicle at a standstill on a
hill. Depress the brake
pedal when the vehicle is
stopped on a steep hill.
Failure to do so may cause
the vehicle to roll backwards
and may result in a collision
or serious personal injury.

158 Driving and Operating
Warning (Continued)
.The hill start assist system
may not prevent the vehicle
from rolling backwards on a
hill under all load or road
conditions. Always be
prepared to depress the
brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from rolling
backwards. Failure to do so
may result in a collision or
serious personal injury.
When the vehicle is stopped on a
hill, the hill start assist system
automatically keeps the brakes
applied to help prevent the vehicle
from rolling backward in the time it
takes the driver to release the brake
pedal and apply the accelerator. The hill start assist system will
operate automatically under the
following conditions:
.
The transmission is shifted to a
forward or reverse gear.
. The vehicle is stopped
completely on a hill by applying
the brake. The maximum holding
time is two seconds. After
two seconds the vehicle will
begin to roll back and the hill
start assist system will stop
operating completely.
The hill start assist system will not
operate when the shift lever is
placed in the N (Neutral) or P (Park)
position or on a flat and level road.
Ride Control Systems
Traction Control/
Electronic Stability
Control
System Operation
The vehicle has a Traction Control
System (TCS) and Electronic
Stability Control, an electronic
stability control system. These
systems use various sensors to
monitor driver inputs and vehicle
motion. Under certain driving
conditions, the TCS and Electronic
Stability Control systems help to
perform the following functions:
. Control brake pressure to reduce
wheel slip on one slipping drive
wheel so power is transferred to
a non–slipping drive wheel on
the same axle.
. Control brake pressure and
engine output to reduce drive
wheel slip based on vehicle
speed (traction control function).

Parking Assist
{Warning
.Always turn and look back
before backing up. The RPA
is not a substitute for proper
backing procedures.
. Read and understand the
limitations of the rear
parking assist system as
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
contained in this section.
Inclement weather may
affect the function of the
RPA; this may include
reduced performance or a
false activation.
. This system is not designed
to prevent contact with small
or moving objects.
. The system is designed as
a aid to the driver in
detecting large stationary
objects to help avoid
damaging the vehicle. The
system will not detect small
objects below the bumper,
and may not detect objects
close to the bumper or on
the ground.
. If your vehicle sustains
damage to the rear bumper
fascia, leaving it misaligned
or bent, the sensing zone
may be altered causing
inaccurate measurement of
obstacles or false alarms. If equipped, the Rear Parking Assist
(RPA) sounds a tone to warn the
driver of obstacles near the rear
bumper when the shift lever is in
R (Reverse). The system may not
detect objects at speeds above
5 km/h (3 mph) and may not detect
certain angular or moving objects.
The RPA detects objects up to 1.8 m
(5.9 ft) from the rear bumper with a
decreased coverage area at the
outer corners of the bumper. As you
move closer to the obstacle, the rate
of the tone increases. When the
obstacle is less than 25 cm (10 in)
away, the tone will sound
continuously. If the RPA detects a
stationary or receding object further
than 25 cm (10 in) from the side of
the vehicle, the tone will sound for
only three seconds. Once the
system detects an object
approaching, the tone will sound
again.
The RPA automatically turns on
when the shift lever is placed in
R (Reverse) and the ignition switch
is in ON. The RPA OFF switch on
the instrument panel allows the
