■The wireless charger can be operated when
The engine switch is in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode.
■ Portable devices that can be charged
●Portable devices compatible with the Qi wireless charging stand ard can be
charged by the wireless charger. However, compatibility with all devices
which meet the Qi wireless charging standard is not guaranteed.
● The wireless charger is designed to supply low power electricit y (5 W or
less) to a cellular phone, smartphone, or other portable device .
● However, portable devices, such as the following, can be charge d with more
than 5 W.
• 7.5 W charging compatible iPhones can be charged at 7.5 W or l ess.

W or less.
■ Using the smart key system
During charging, when the smart key system searches for an elec tronic key,
charging may be temporarily suspended.
■ If a cover or accessory is attached to the portable device
Do not charge a portable device if a cover or accessory which i s not Qi com-
patible is attached. Depending on the type of cover and/or acce ssory
attached, it may not be possible to charge the portable device. If the portable
device is placed on the charging area and does not charge, remo ve the cover
and/or accessories.
■ If interference is heard in AM ra dio broadcasts while charging
● Turn off the wireless charger and check if the noise is reduced . If noise is
reduced, press and hold the power supply switch of the wireless charger for

WARNING
The engine compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that may
move suddenly, become hot, or become electrically energized. To avoid death
or serious injury, observe the following precautions.
■ When working on the engine compartment
● Keep hands, clothing and tools away from the moving fan and engine
drive belt.
● Be careful not to touch the engine, radiator, exhaust manifold, etc. right
after driving as they may be hot. Oil and other fluids may also be hot.
● Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper and r ags, in the
engine compartment.
● Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to fuel or t he bat-
tery. Fuel and battery fumes are flammable.
● Be extremely cautious when working on the battery. It contains poisonous
and corrosive sulfuric acid.
■ When working near the electric cooling fan or radiator grille
Vehicles without a smart key system:
Be sure the engine switch is off. With the engine switch in the “ON” position,
the electric cooling fan may automatically start to run if the air conditioning
is on and/or the coolant temperature is high. ( P. 467)
Vehicles with a smart key system:
Be sure the engine switch is off. With the engine switch in IGNITION ON
mode, the electric cooling fan may automatically start to run if the air condi-
tioning is on and/or the coolant temperature is high. ( P. 467)
■ Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc.
from getting in your eyes.
NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear
due to dirt in the air.

Maintenance and care
●Performance may be affected in the following situations.
• When driving near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio
station, large display, airport or other facilit y that generates strong
radio waves or electrical noise
• When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or
other wireless communication device
Vehicles with a tire inflation pressure display function: If ti re position
information is not correctly displayed due to the radio wave co nditions,
the display may be corrected by changing the location of the ve hicle as
the radio wave conditions may change.
●When the vehicle is stopped, the time taken for the warning to start or
turn off may be longer.
●When the inflation pressure of a tire drops rapidly, for exampl e when a
tire has burst, the warning may not operate.
■Initialization procedure
●Make sure to perform the initialization procedure after adjusti ng the tire
inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before performing the initia lization
procedure or adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
●If the engine switch is turned t o the “LOCK” position (vehicles without a
smart key system) or off (vehicles with a smart key system) dur ing ini-
tialization, it is not necessary to restart the initialization procedure from
the beginning as it will begin aut omatically when the engine switch is
turned back to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart key system)
or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system).
●If initialization has accidentally been started when it is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressu re to the specified level when the tires are
cold and then perform the ini tialization procedure again.
●Vehicles with a tire inflation p ressure display function: While the position
of each tire is being determined and the inflation pressures are not being
displayed on the multi-information display, if the inflation pr essure of a
tire drops, the tire pressure warning light will come on.
■Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system
The warning of the tire pressu re warning system will change in accor-
dance with the conditions under which it was initialized. For t his reason,
the system may give a warning even if the tire pressure does no t reach a
low enough level, or if the pressure is higher than the pressur e that was
adjusted to when the sys tem was initialized.

Maintenance and care
■When registering ID codes (vehicles with a tire inflation pressure dis-
play function)
●Before performing ID code registration, make sure that no wheel s with
tire pressure warning valve and transmitters installed are near the vehi-
cle.
●Make sure to initialize the tire pressure warning system after registering
the ID codes. If the system is initialized before registering t he ID codes,
the initialized values will be invalid.
●As the tires will be war m when registration is completed, make sure to
allow the tires to cool befo re performing initialization.
■Canceling ID code registration ( vehicles with a tire inflation pressure
display function)
●To cancel ID code registration after it has been started, turn the engine
switch off before driving the vehicle.
If the vehicle is driven after ID code registration is started, to cancel reg-
istration, perform the ID code r egistration start procedure aga in and turn
the engine switch of f before driving.
●If ID code registration has been canceled, the tire pressure wa rning light
will blink for approximately 1 mi nute when the engine switch is turned to
the “ON” position (vehicles witho ut a smart key system) or IGNITION
ON mode (vehicles with a smart ke y system) and then illuminate. The
tire pressure warning system will be operational when the tire pressure
warning ligh t turns off.
●If the warning light does not turn off even after several minut es have
elapsed, ID code registration may not have been cancelled corre ctly. To
cancel registration, perform the ID code registration start procedure
again and then turn the engine switch off before driving.
