5. When the ID code change has
completed, the tire pressure monitoring
light will turn off.
Check that tire pressures are displayed on
the TPMS screen.
7-16. Parking Your Vehicle■ Parking BrakeTo set the parking brake, depress the
brake pedal firmly and hold it down until
the parking brake lever is fully pulled up.
WARNING
Do not operate the TPMS set switch
without first adjust ing the tire infla-
tion pressure to the specified level.
Otherwise, the low tire pressure
warning light may not come on even
if the tire inflation pressure is low,
or it may come on when the tire
inflation pressure is actually nor-
mal.
WARNING
 Never leave unattended children
or pets in the vehicle. They could
accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent oper-
ation of the vehicle. Also, on hot
or sunny days, the temperature in
a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people. Do not park the vehicle over flam-
mable materials such as dry
grass, waste paper or rags, as
they may burn easily if they come
near hot engine or exhaust
system parts. Be sure to stop the engine if you
take a nap in the vehicle. If engine
exhaust gas enters the passenger
compartment, occupants in the
vehicle could die from carbon
monoxide (CO) contained in the
exhaust gas.

Parking Your Vehicle
256To release the parking brake, pull the
lever up slightly, press the release button,
then lower the lever while keeping the
button pressed.
When the parking brake is set while the
engine is running, the parking brake
warning light illuminates. After starting the
vehicle, be sure that the warning light has
turned off before the vehicle is driven.
Refer to "Brake System Warning Light"
 P140.
■ Parking TipsWhen parking your vehicle, always
perform the following items.
 Apply the parking brake firmly.
 For MT models, put the shift lever in the
“1” (1st) for upgrade or “R” (Reverse) for a
downgrade.
 For AT models, put the select lever in
the “P” (Park) position.
Never rely on the mechanical friction of
the transmission alone to hold the vehicle.
When parking on a hill, always turn the
steering wheel. When the vehicle is headed up the hill, the front wheels should

be turned away from the curb.
When facing downhill, the front wheels
should be turned into the curb.
CAUTION
 Never drive while the parking
brake is set because this will
cause unnecessary wear on the
brake linings. Before starting to
drive, always make sure that the
parking brake has been fully
released.
702782
 The braking power of the parking
brake may not be sufficient when
stronger braking power is
needed.
700897
CAUTION
If your vehicle has a front under-
spoiler and rear underspoiler (both
optional), pay attention to blocks
and other obstructions on the
ground when parking. The under-
spoilers could be damaged by con-
tact with them.

Starting and Operating7
– CONTINUED –
7-17. Hill Start Assist SystemThe Hill start assist system is a device to
make the following vehicle operations
easier.
1) Starting forward facing uphill
2) Starting backward facing downhill
A) Brake pedal (both MT models and AT
models)
B) Clutch pedal (MT models only)
In both these cases, the Hill start assist
system operates under the following
conditions.
 The clutch pedal is depressed while the
brake pedal is also depressed (MT
models).
 The vehicle has stopped with the brake
pedal depressed (AT models).
Braking power is maintained temporarily
(for approximately 2 seconds) by the Hill
start assist system after the brake pedal is
released. The driver is therefore able to
start the vehicle in the same way as on a
level grade, just using the clutch pedal
(MT models only) and accelerator pedal
(all models).
If the braking power of the Hill start assist
system is insufficient after the brake pedal
is released, apply more braking power by
depressing the brake pedal again.
The Hill start assist system may not
operate on slight grades. Also, the Hill
start assist system does not operate in the
following cases.
WARNING
 The Hill start assist system is a
device only for helping the driver
to START the vehicle on an uphill
grade. To prevent accidents when
the vehicle is parked on a slope,
be sure to firmly set the parking
brake. When setting the parking
brake, make sure that the vehicle
remains stationary when the
clutch pedal (MT models) and
brake pedal (both MT and AT
models) are released. Do not turn the ig nition switch to
the “OFF” position while the Hill
start assist system is operating.
The Hill start assist system will be
deactivated and may lead to an
accident.
