Immobilizer System 
(if equipped)
The immobilizer system protects
your vehicle from theft. If an improp-
erly coded key (or other device) is
used, the engine's fuel system is dis-
abled.
When the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the immobilizer sys-
tem indicator should come on briefly,
then go off. If the indicator starts to
blink, the system does not recognize
the coding of the key.
Turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK/OFF position, then turn the
ignition switch to the ON position
again.
In some circumstances, the vehicle
may not recognize your remote key
or smart key if another remote key or
smart key device is nearby or a metal
object such as a key chain is causing
interference with the remote key or
smart key.
If this occurs, your vehicle may not
start. Remove any metal objects or
additional keys near the remote key
or smart key before attempting to
start the vehicle again.

Side View  Mirrors
Make sure to adjust the side view
mirrors to your desired position
before you begin driving.
Your vehicle is equipped with both
left-hand and right-hand side view
mirrors. The mirrors can be adjusted
remotely with the remote switch. The
side view mirrors can be folded to
help prevent damage when going
through an automatic car wash or
when passing through a narrow
street.
The right side view mirror is convex.
Objects seen in the mirror are closer
than they appear. Use the inside rear view mirror or
look back directly to determine the
actual distance of other vehicles
prior to changing lanes.
 Do not scrape ice off the mirror
face; this may damage the sur-
face of the glass.
 If the mirror is jammed with ice, do not adjust the mirror by
force. Use an approved spray
de-icer (not radiator antifreeze)
spray, or a sponge or soft cloth
with very warm water, or move
the vehicle to a warm place and
allow the ice to melt.

If the key is removed from the ignition
switch or placed in the ACC position
or the LOCK/OFF position with the
headlamps ON, the headlamps
(and/or parking lamps) remain on for
about 5 minutes. However, if the dri-
ver's door is opened and closed, the
headlights are turned off after 15
seconds. Also, with the engine off if

through another door besides the
driver door, the battery saver func-
tion does not operate and the
headlamp delay function does not
turn OFF automatically.
This may cause the battery to dis-
charge. To avoid battery dis-
charge, turn OFF the headlamps
manually from the headlamp
switch before exiting the vehicle.
