CONTROL BUTTONS AND
TOUCH SCREEN DISPLAY
Designs and button layout may vary de-
pending on the specifications and the model.
LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY
The display is a liquid crystal display and
should be handled with care.
WARNING
.Never disassemble the display. Some
parts utilize extremely high voltage.
Touching them may result in serious
personal injury.
. ALWAYS give your full attention to
driving.
. Avoid using vehicle features that
could distract you. If distracted, you
could lose control of your vehicle and
cause an accident.
CAUTION
The glass screen on the liquid crystal
display may break if it is hit with a hard
or sharp object. If the glass screen breaks,
do not touch it. Doing so could result in an injury.
Characteristics of liquid crystal dis-
play
.
If the temperature inside the vehicle is
especially low, the display will stay
relatively dim or the movement of the
images may be slow. These conditions
are normal. The display will function
normally when the interior of the vehicle
has warmed up.
. Some pixels in the display are darker or
brighter than others. This condition is an
inherent characteristic of liquid crystal
display, and it is not a malfunction.
. A remnant of the previous display image
may remain on the screen. This screen
burn is inherent in display, and it is not a
malfunction.
Maintenance of display
To clean the display screen, use a dry, soft
cloth. If additional cleaning is necessary, use
a small amount of neutral detergent with a
soft cloth. Never spray the screen with
water or detergent. Dampen the cloth first,
then wipe the screen.
CAUTION
.To clean the display, stop the vehicle
in a safe location.
. Clean the display with the ignition
switch in the OFF position. If the
display is cleaned while the ignition
switch is in the ON position, uninten-
tional operation may occur.
. To clean the display, never use a
rough cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner
and any kind of solvent or paper towel
with a chemical cleaning agent. They
will scratch or deteriorate the panel.
. Do not splash any liquid such as water
or car fragrance on the display. Con-
tact with liquid will cause the system
to malfunction.

AUDIO OPERATION PRECAU-
TIONS
WARNING
.The driver must not attempt to oper-
ate the audio system while the vehicle
is in motion, so that full attention may
be given to the vehicle operation.
. Park the vehicle in a safe location and
apply the parking brake before oper-
ating the audio system and playing
movies (if so equipped).
CAUTION
.Operate the audio system only when
the engine or the hybrid system is
running. Operating the audio system
for extended periods of time with the
engine or the hybrid system turned
off can discharge the vehicle battery
(12V battery).
. Do not allow these systems to get
wet. Excessive moisture such as
spilled liquids may cause the system
to malfunction.
RADIO
Place the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position before turning on the radio. If you
listen to the radio with the engine or the
hybrid system not running, the ignition
switch should be placed in the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter,
buildings, bridges, mountains and other
external influences. Intermittent changes in
reception quality normally are caused by
these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle
may influence radio reception quality.
Radio reception
Your radio system is equipped with state-of-
the-art electronic circuits to enhance radio
reception. These circuits are designed to
extend reception range, and to enhance the
quality of that reception.
However there are some general character-
istics of both FM and AM radio signals that
can affect radio reception quality in a
moving vehicle, even when the finest equip-
ment is used. These characteristics are
completely normal in a given reception area,
and do not indicate any malfunction in your
radio system. Reception conditions will constantly change
because of vehicle movement. Buildings,
terrain, signal distance and interference
from other vehicles can work against ideal
reception. Described below are some of the
factors that can affect your radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to
come from the audio system speakers.
Storing the device in a different location
may reduce or eliminate the noise.
FM radio reception
Range: the FM range is normally limited to
25 to 30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural
