3-20Pre-driving checks and adjustments
WARNING
• Always be sure the lif tgate has been
closed securely to prevent it from
opening while driving.
• Do not drive with the lif tgate open.
This could allow dangerous exhaust
gases to be drawn into the vehicle.
For additional information, refer to
“Exhaust gas (carbon monoxide)” in
the “Starting and driving” section of
this manual.
• Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assis-
tance of others alone in your vehicle.
Pets should also not be lef t alone.
They could accidently injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent
operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a closed
vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly
fatal injuries to people or animals.
• Always be sure that hands and feet
are clear of the door frame to avoid
injury while closing the lif tgate.CAUTION
• Before opening the lif tgate, be sure
to clear away snow, ice or dust that
may be stuck to the lif tgate. If the
lif tgate is opened while materials are
still stuck to it, it may suddenly close
again due to the weight of these
materials.
• Always be sure to fully open the lif t-
gate. If it is not fully opened, it may
suddenly shut.
• Be especially careful when opening
the lif tgate in strong wind. The door
could be caught by a gust of wind
and may close suddenly. • The lif tgate gas stays
OAare installed in
order to support the weight of the lif t-
gate. In order to prevent the gas stays
being damaged or not operating prop-
erly, be sure to observe the following
points.
– Do not insert hands or cords into the gas stays
OAor apply any force to them lat-
erally.
– Do not attach any adhesive foreign ma- terials such as pieces of plastic or stick-
ers to the rod
OBportion.

LPD0259
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is dis-
played:
• When the shif t lever is in the P (Park) or N(Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects mov-
ing objects in the bird’s-eye view. The
MOD system will not operate if the out-
side mirrors are moving in or out, in the
stowed position, or if either front door is
opened. • When the shif t lever is in the D (Drive)
position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD
system detects moving objects in the
front view.
• When the shif t lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD
system detects moving objects in the
rear view. The MOD system will not oper-
ate if the lif tgate is open. The MOD system does not detect moving
objects in the front-side view. The MOD
icon is not displayed on the screen when in
this view.
When the MOD system detects moving ob-
jects near the vehicle, a chime will be heard
when in front or rear view and a yellow
frame will be displayed on the view where
the objects are detected. While the MOD
system continues to detect moving ob-
jects, the yellow frame continues to be dis-
played.
In the bird’s-eye view, the yellow frame
O1is
displayed on each camera image (front,
rear, right, lef t) depending on where mov-
ing objects are detected.
The yellow frame
O2is displayed on each
view in the front view and rear view modes.
A blue MOD icon
O3is displayed in the view
where the MOD system is operative. A gray
MOD icon is displayed in the view where the
MOD system is not operative.
If the MOD system is turned off, the MOD
icon
O3is not displayed.

prevent the TPMS from functioning prop-
erly. Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale af ter replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels
allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.
Additional information:
• When replacing a wheel without theTPMS such as a spare tire, the TPMS does
not monitor the tire pressure of the spare
tire.
• The TPMS will activate only when the ve- hicle is driven at speeds above 16 mph (25
km/h). Also, this system may not detect a
sudden drop in tire pressure (for example,
a flat tire while driving).
• The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire
pressure is adjusted. Af ter the tire is in-
flated to the recommended pressure, the
vehicle must be driven at speeds above
16 mph (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS
and turn off the low tire pressure warning
light. Use a tire pressure gauge to check
the tire pressure. • The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” or
“CHECK TIRE PRES” warning appears each
time the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position as long as the low tire pres-
sure warning light remains illuminated.
• The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warning appears in the vehicle information dis-
play, or the “CHECK TIRE PRES” warning
appears in the trip computer when the
low tire pressure warning light is illumi-
nated and low tire pressure is detected.
The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” or
“CHECK TIRE PRES” warning turns off
when the low tire pressure warning light
turns off.
• The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” or “CHECK TIRE PRES” warning does not ap-
pear if the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates to indicate a TPMS malfunc-
tion. • Tire pressure rises and falls depending on
the heat caused by the vehicle’s opera-
tion and the outside temperature. Do not
reduce the tire pressure af ter driving be-
cause the tire pressure rises af ter driving.
Low outside temperature can lower the
temperature of the air inside the tire
which can cause a lower tire inflation
pressure. This may cause the low tire
pressure warning light to illuminate. If the
warning light illuminates, check the tire
pressure for all four tires.
• The Tire and Loading Information label is located in the driver's door opening.
• You can also check the pressure of all tires (except the spare tire) on the vehicle
information display screen. The order of
the tire pressure figures displayed on the
screen corresponds with the actual order
of the tire position.
For additional information, refer to “Low tire
pressure warning light” in the “Instruments
and controls” section and “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the “In case of
emergency” section of this manual.
