vehicle based on the brightness of illumi-
nation ahead of your vehicle, etc. There-
fore, the headlight mode may switch in
some situations that do not match to the
driver’s sense.
 A bicycle or cargo cycle may not be
detected.
 Under the following situations, the
brightness of ambient illumination may not
be detected correctly and the high beam
assist function may not work properly. As
a result, the glare of the high beam may
disturb the oncoming vehicle or vehicle
ahead. Also, the low beam mode may
continue although there are no oncoming
vehicles and vehicles ahead. In the such
cases, change the headlight mode manu-
ally.

CAUTION

Before programming HomeLink
®
to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure that people
and objects are out of the way of
the device to prevent potential
harm or damage.
 When programming a garage
door opener, it is advised to park
outside of the garage. Do not use HomeLink
® with any
garage door opener that lacks
safety stop and reverse features
as required by U.S. federal safety
standards (this includes any
garage door opener model manu-
factured before April 1, 1982). A
garage door that cannot detect an
object signaling the door to stop
and reverse does not meet
current U.S. federal safety stan-
dards.
 It is also recommended that a new
battery be placed in the hand-
held remote (garage door opener
remote) of the device for quicker
and more accurate training.

Starting and Stopping Engine
230On rare occasions, it may be difficult
to start the engine depending on the
fuel and the usage condition (repeated
driving of a distance in which the
engine has not warmed up suffi-
ciently). In such a case, it is recom-
mended that you change to a different
brand of fuel.
 On rare occasions, transient
knocking may be heard from the
engine when the accelerator is oper-
ated rapidly such as a rapid start-up
and a rapid acceleration. This is not a
malfunction.
 The engine starts more easily when
the headlights, air conditioner and rear
window defogger are turned off.■ Starting Engine
NOTEWhen pressing the push-button
ignition switch while depressing the
clutch pedal (MT models) or the brake
pedal (AT models): - The engine starter operates for a

automatically.
- The engine can be started
regardless of the power status.
 If the engine does not start, check
the security indicator light. Then press
the push-button ignition switch
without depressing the clutch pedal
(MT models) or the brake pedal (AT

released after the engine has
started, never drive the vehicle.
The steering is still locked, and it
may result in an accident.
CAUTION
 If a system malfunction warning
message is displayed on the
combination meter, there may be
a malfunction with the vehicle.
