2. You will find “ ” marks at the bottoms
of the rear seatback. These marks indi-
cate the positions of the lower anchorages
(bars).
Each lower anchorage is located behind
the cover of seatback bottom.Peel off the anchorage cover completely
from the selected side of the rear
seatback to expose
the anchorages (bars)
to be used for installation of the child
restraint system.
If it is hard to install the child restraint
system because the anchorage cover
returns to the original position, press the
anchorage cover to the seat cushion until
it is flat. 3. While following the instructions
supplied by the child restraint system
manufacturer, connect the lower hooks
onto the lower anchorages located at “ ”
marks on the bottom of the rear seatback.
When the hooks are connected, make
sure the adjacent seatbelts are not
caught.
CAUTION
When you install a child restraint
system, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions supplied with it. After
installing the child restraint system,
check to ensure that it is held
securely in position. If it is not held
tight and secure, the danger of your
child suffering personal injury in
the event of an accident may be
increased.

Starting and Operating7
– CONTINUED –
Press the unlock side of the power
door locking switch.
3. The fuel filler lid opens automatically.
Open it further by hand.
1) Open
2) Close4. Remove the fuel filler cap by turning it
slowly counterclockwise.
5. Set the fuel filler cap on the cap holder
inside the fuel filler lid.
WARNING
Before opening the fuel filler cap,
first touch the veh icle body or a
metal portion of the fuel pump or
similar object to discharge any
static electricity that may be present
on your body. If your body is carry-
ing an electrostatic charge, there is
a possibility that an electric spark
could ignite the fuel, which could
burn you. To avoid acquiring a new
static electric charge, do not get
back into the vehicle while refueling
is in progress.
WARNING
 Gasoline vapor is highly flam-
mable. Before refueling, always
turn the ignition switch to the
“OFF” position first and then
close all vehicle doors and
windows. Make sure that there
are no lighted cigarettes, open
flames or electrical sparks in the
adjacent area. Only handle fuel
outdoors. Quickly wipe up any
spilled fuel.

When opening the cap, grasp it
firmly and turn it slowly to the left.
Do not remove the cap quickly.
Fuel may be under pressure and
spray out of the fuel filler neck,
especially in hot weather. If you
hear a hissing sound while you
are removing the cap, wait for the
sound to stop and then slowly
open the cap to prevent fuel from
spraying out and creating a fire
hazard.

BSD/RCTA (If Equipped)
268▼
Feature of distance marker1) 3 ft (1 m) line
2) 10 ft (3 m) lineThe distance marker shows the distance
on the road. If there is a car or another
object close behind, distance cannot be
correctly displayed.
7-20. BSD/RCTA (IfEquipped)The BSD/RCTA consists of rear corner
radars with Blind Spot Detection and Rear
Cross Traffic Alert.
These functions of BSD/RCTA are the
systems that detect objects and vehicles
to the rear and draw attention to the driver
when changing a lane or when driving in
reverse.
■
System Features
BSD/RCTA consists of the following func-
tions.
To detect a vehicle in a blind spot on an
adjacent lane or a vehicle approaching at
high speed while driving the vehicle (Blind
Spot Detection)
 To detect a vehicle approaching from
the right or left while reversing the vehicle
(Rear Cross Traffic Alert)

WARNING
The driver is responsible for driving
safely. Always be sure to check the
surroundings with your eyes when
changing lanes or reversing the
vehicle.
The system is designed to assist
the driver in changing lanes or
reversing safely by monitoring the
rear and side areas of the vehicle.
However, you cannot rely on this
system alone in assuring the safety
during a lane change or reversing.
Overconfidence in this system
could result in an accident and lead
to serious injury or death. Since the
system operation has various lim-
itations, the flashing or illumination
of the BSD/RCTA approach indica-
tor light may be delayed or it may
not operate at all even when a vehi-
cle is present in a neighboring lane
or approaching from either side.The driver is responsible for paying
attention to the rear and side areas
of the vehicle.

cantly reduced due to the vehicle’s

Exterior Care
33210-1. Exterior Care■
WashingNOTE
When having your vehicle washed in
an automatic car wash, make sure
beforehand that the car wash is of
suitable type.
The best way to preserve your vehicle’s
beauty is frequent washing. Wash the
vehicle at least once a month to avoid
contamination by road grime.
Wash dirt off with a wet sponge and plenty
of lukewarm or cold water. Do not wash
the vehicle with hot water and in direct
sunlight.
Salt, chemicals, insects, tar, soot, tree
sap, and bird droppings should be washed
off by using a light detergent, as required.
If you use a light detergent, make certain
that it is a neutral detergent. Do not use
strong soap or chemical detergents. All
cleaning agents should be promptly
flushed from the surface and not allowed
to dry there. Rinse the vehicle thoroughly with plenty of lukewarm water. Wipe the
remaining water off with a chamois or soft
cloth. Wear rubber gloves and use a hand
brush when washing down underbody,
inner fenders and suspension to effec-
tively remove mud and dirt off.
▼
Washing the underbody
Chemicals, salts and gravel used for
deicing road surfaces are extremely corro-
sive, accelerating the corrosion of under-
body components, such as the exhaust
system, fuel and brake lines, brake
cables, floor pan and fenders, and
suspension.
Thoroughly flush the underbody and
inside of the fenders with lukewarm or
cold water at frequent intervals to reduce
the harmful effects of such agents.
Mud and sand adhering to the underbody
components may accelerate their corro-
sion.
After driving off-road or on muddy or
sandy roads, wash the mud and sand off
the underbody.
Carefully flush the suspension and axle
parts, as they are particularly prone to
mud and sand buildup. Do not use a
sharp-edged tool to remove caked mud.
CAUTION
 When washing the vehicle, the
brakes may get wet. As a result,
the brake stopping distance will
be longer. To dry the brakes,
drive the vehicle at a safe speed
while lightly pressing the brake
pedal to heat up the brakes.Do not wash the engine compart-
ment and areas adjacent to it. If
water enters the engine air intake
or electrical parts, it will cause
engine trouble or a malfunction of
the power steering.When washing inner fenders,
underbody, bumpers and
protruding objects such as
exhaust pipes and exhaust
finishers, be careful to prevent
injuries from contacting sharp
ends.
Do not use any organic solvents
when washing the surface of the
bulb assembly cover. However, if
a detergent with organic solvents
is used to wash the cover surface,
completely rinse off the detergent
with water. Otherwise, the cover
surface may be damaged.
