• Front: 33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32 psi (220 kPa) or more:

Continue driving for another 10 minutes or until you reach the nearest service
station, whichever is sooner. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h). If you have not
reached a service station, stop and check the tire pressure.

If the air pressure does not go down after the 10 minute driving, you do not
need to check the pressure any more.

• Greater than 25 psi (175 kPa), but less than front: 33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32

psi (220 kPa):

Turn the air compressor on to inflate the tire until the tire pressure reaches front:
33 psi (225 kPa)/rear: 32 psi (220 kPa).

Emergency Engine Stop

The ENGINE START/STOP button may be used to stop the engine due to an
emergency situation even while driving. If you must stop the engine, do either of the
following operations:
• Press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for about two seconds.
• Firmly press the ENGINE START/STOP button three times.

The steering wheel will not lock. However, because turning off the engine disables
the power assist the engine provides to the steering and braking systems, it will
require significantly more physical effort and time to steer and slow the vehicle. Use
both feet on the brake pedal to slow down the vehicle and stop immediately in a
safe place. With manual transmission models you can also downshift the
transmission to utilize engine braking.

The power mode is in ACCESSORY when the engine is stopped.
To change the mode to VEHICLE OFF, move the shift lever to

(

P after the vehicle

comes to a complete stop.

Then press the ENGINE START/STOP button twice without depressing the brake
pedal.

The power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF.

Jump Starting

Jump Starting Procedure

Turn off the power to electric devices, such as audio and lights. Turn off the engine,
then open the hood.

1. Connect the first jumper cable to your

vehicle’s battery + terminal.

2. Connect the other end of the first jumper

cable to the booster battery + terminal.

u

Use a 12-volt booster battery only.

u

When using an automotive battery
charger to boost your 12-volt battery,
select a lower charging voltage than 15-
volt. Check the charger manual for the
proper setting.

3. Connect the second jumper cable to the

booster battery - terminal.

Jump Starting Procedure

1

Jump Starting

Securely attach the jumper cables clips so that they
do not come off when the engine vibrates. Also be
careful not to tangle the jumper cables or allow the
cable ends to touch each other while attaching or
detaching the jumper cables.

Overheating

How to Handle Overheating

Overheating symptoms are as follows:
• The temperature gauge pointer is at the

mark or the engine suddenly loses

power.

• Steam or spray comes out of the engine compartment.

First thing to do

1. Immediately park the vehicle in a safe place.
2. Turn off all accessories and turn on the hazard warning lights.

u

No steam or spray present: Keep the engine running and open the hood.

u

Steam or spray is present: Turn off the engine and wait until it subsides.
Then open the hood.

Next thing to do

1. Check that the cooling fan is operating and

stop the engine once the temperature
gauge pointer comes down.

u

If the cooling fan is not operating,
immediately stop the engine.

2. Once the engine has cooled down, inspect

the coolant level and check the cooling
system components for leaks.

u

If the coolant level in the reserve tank is
low, or no coolant in the tank, check that
the radiator is cool. Cover the reserve
tank cap with a heavy cloth and open the
cap. Add coolant until it reaches the
MAX mark, and put the cap back on.

Last thing to do

Once the engine has cooled sufficiently, restart it and check the temperature gauge.
If the temperature gauge pointer has gone down, resume driving. If it has not gone
down, contact a dealer for repairs.

1

How to Handle Overheating

If the coolant is leaking, contact a dealer for repairs.

Use water as an emergency/temporary measure only.
Have a dealer flush the system with proper antifreeze
as soon as possible.

3

WARNING

Removing the reserve tank cap while the
engine is hot can cause the coolant to spray
out, seriously scalding you.

Always let the engine and radiator cool
down before removing the reserve tank
cap.

If the Brake System Indicator (Red) Comes On or

Reasons for the indicator to come on

• The brake fluid is low.
• There is a malfunction in the brake system.

What to do when the indicator comes on while driving

Depress the brake pedal lightly to check pedal pressure.
• If normal, check the brake fluid level the next time you stop.
• If abnormal, take immediate action. If necessary, downshift the

transmission to slow the vehicle using engine braking.

Reason for the indicator to blink

• There is a problem with the electric parking brake system.

What to do when the indicator blinks

Avoid using the parking brake and have your vehicle checked by a dealer
immediately.

1

If the Brake System Indicator (Red) Comes On or Blinks

Have your vehicle repaired immediately.
It is dangerous to drive with low brake fluid. If there
is no resistance from the brake pedal, stop
immediately in a safe place. If necessary downshift
the gears.

If the brake system indicator and ABS indicator come
on simultaneously, the electronic brake distribution
system is not working. This can result in vehicle
instability under sudden braking.
Have your vehicle inspected by a dealer immediately.

If the brake system indicator (red) blinks at the same
time when the brake system indicator (amber) comes
on, the parking brake may not work.
Avoid using the parking brake and have your vehicle
checked by a dealer immediately.

2 If the Brake System Indicator (Red) Comes

On or Blinks at the Same Time When the
Brake System Indicator (Amber) Comes On

P. 640

If you repeatedly operate the electric parking brake in
a short period of time, the brake stops operating to
prevent heating of the system and the indicator
blinks.
It returns to its original state in approximately one
minute.
