Except for vehicles equipped
with the keyless operation sys- tem
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop.2. Fully engage the parking brake while de-
pressing the brake pedal.
3. For vehicles equipped with M/T, turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” positionto stop the engine, and then move the
gearshift lever to the 1 st
(on a uphill) or
“R” (Reverse) (on a downhill) position.
For vehicles equipped with A/T, place
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) po- sition, and stop the engine.
For vehicles equipped with the keyless op-
eration systemWARNINGl Do not operate the engine switch while
driving except in an emergency. If the en-
gine is stopped while driving, the brake servomechanism will cease to function
and braking efficiency will deteriorate. Also, the power steering system will notfunction and it will require greater man-
ual effort to operate the steering. This
could result in a serious accident.NOTEl If you have to bring the engine to an emer-
gency stop while driving, press and hold the engine switch for 3 seconds or more, or
press it quickly 3 times or more. The engine will stop and the operation mode will go to ACC.
l Do not stop the engine with the selector lev-
er in any position other than the “P” (PARK) position (A/T). If the engine is stopped with
the selector lever in any position other than the “P” (PARK) position, the operation
mode will go to ACC rather than OFF.
Put the operation mode in OFF after placing the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) posi- tion.

process
E00627901066
To keep exhaust emissions and engine noise low, the engine very occasionally performs a
learning process for the fuel injection
amount.
The engine sounds slightly different from usual while the learning process is taking
place. The change in the engine sound does
not indicate a fault.
If the keyless operation key is
not operating properly
E00632901093
Insert the keyless operation key into the key
slot. Starting the engine and changing the op- eration mode should now be possible.
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.
