Introduction
By following a few simple precautions for the first 600 miles (1,000 km) you
may add to the performance, economy and life of your vehicle.
Do not race the engine.
While driving, keep your engine speed (rpm, or revolutions per minute)between 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm.
Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or slow. Varying engine speed is needed to properly break-in the engine.
Avoid hard stops, except in emergencies, to allow the brakes to seat prop- erly.

Introduction
F12
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main
purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situ-
ations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data
that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The
EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR
in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
fastened;
brake pedal; and,
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circum-
stances in which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are
recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no
data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no
personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are record-
ed. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the
EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired
during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and
access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the spe-
cial equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehi-
cle or the EDR.

Safety system of your vehicle
Head Restraints
The vehicle's front and rear seats
have adjustable head restraints. The
head restraints provide comfort for
passengers, but more importantly
they are designed to help protect
passengers from whiplash and other
neck and spinal injuries during an
accident, especially in a rear impact
collision.To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death in an accident,
take the following precautions
when adjusting your head
restraints:
Always properly adjust the head restraints for all passen-
gers BEFORE starting the
vehicle.
NEVER let anyone ride in a seat with the head restraints
removed or reversed.
WARNING
Cargo should always be secured
to prevent it from being thrown
about the vehicle in a collision
and causing injury to the vehicle
occupants. Do not p lace objects
in the rear seats, since they can-
not be properly secured and
may hit the front seat occupants
in a collision.
WARNING
Make sure the engine is off, the vehicle is shifted to P
(Park) and the parking brake
is applied whenever loading
or unloading cargo. The vehi-
cle may move if the shift lever
is inadvertently moved to
another position.
When cargo is loaded through the rear passenger seats,
ensure the cargo is properly
secured to prevent it from
moving while driving.
CAUTION

Safety system of your vehicle
In an angled collision, the force of
impact may direct the occupants in a
direction where the air bags would
not be able to provide any additional
benefit, and thus the sensors may
not deploy any air bags.
Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehicle
causing it to "ride" under a vehicle
with a higher ground clearance. Air
bags may not inflate in this "under-
ride" situation because deceleration
forces that are detected by sensors
may be significantly reduced by such
"underride" collisions. Front air bags may not inflate in
rollover accidents because air bag
deployment could not provide protec-
tion to the occupants.
However, side and curtain air bags
may inflate when the vehicle is rolled
over by a side impact collision.
Information
Front air bags do not inflate in
rollover accidents. However, side
impact and curtain air bags may
inflate in a rollover, when it is detect-
ed by the rollover sensor.

OHI048013/OHI048014
■ Driver's door■Passenger's door
The doors should always be
fully closed and locked while
the vehicle is in motion. If the
doors are unlocked, the risk of
being thrown from the vehicle in
a crash is increased.
WARNING
Do not leave children or ani-
mals unattended in your vehi-
cle. An enclosed vehicle can
become extremely hot, causing
death or serious injury to unat-
tended children or animals who
cannot escape the vehicle.
Children might operate features
of the vehicle that could injure
them, or they could encounter
other harm, possibly from some-
one gaining entry to the vehicle.
WARNING
Always secure your vehicle.
Leaving your vehicle unlocked
can allow theft or entry into the
vehicle.
To secure your vehicle, while
depressing the brake pedal,
shift the gear to the P (Park)
position, engage the parking
brake, and place the Engine
Start/Stop button in the OFF
position, close all windows,
lock all doors, and always take
the key with you.
WARNING
Opening a door when some-
thing is approaching may cause
damage or injury. Be careful
when opening doors and watch
for vehicles, motorcycles, bicy-
cles or pedestrians approach-
ing the vehicle in the path of the
door.

Hood
Opening the hood
1. Park the vehicle and set the park-
ing brake.
2. Pull the release lever to unlatch the hood. The hood should pop
open slightly.
3. Go to the front of the vehicle, raise the hood slightly, push up the sec-
ondary latch (1) inside of the hood
center and lift the hood (2). After it
has been raised about halfway, it
will raise completely by itself.
Closing the hood
1. Before closing the hood, check inand around the engine compart-
ment to ensure the following:
- Any tools or other loose objects are removed from the engine
compartment area or hood
opening area
- All glove, rags, or other com- bustible material is removed
from the engine compartment
- All filler caps are tightly and cor- rectly installed
2. Lower the hood halfway (lifted approximately 30 cm from the
closed position) and push down to
securely lock in place. Then dou-
ble check to be sure the hood is
secure. If the hood can be raised
slightly, it is not securely locked.
Open it again and close it with
more force.

Before closing the hood,
ensure all obstructions are
removed from around hood
opening.
Always double check to be sure that the hood is firmly
latched before driving away.
Check there is no hood open
warning light displayed on the
instrument cluster. Driving
with the hood opened may
cause a total loss of visibility,
which might result in an acci-
dent.
Do not move the vehicle with the hood in the raised posi-
tion, as vision is obstructed,
which might result in an acci-
dent, and the hood could fall
or be damaged.
