The airbags will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.
When
the airbag control unit detect an impact of suf-
ficient frontal or side force, it sends an ignition sig-
nal to the airbag modules to ignite materials in the
inflator and generate gas and inflate the airbags.
The airbags deployment produces a sudden, loud
noise, and releases some smoke and powder, but
these conditions are not injurious, and do not indi-
cate a fire in the vehicle. People with respiratory
problems may feel some temporary irritation from
chemicals used to produce the deployment; open
the windows after airbag deployment, if safe to do
so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after deployment,
so there is little danger of obscured vision.
The time required from the sensors detecting an im-
pact to deflation of the airbags after deployment is
shorter than a blink of an eye. CAUTION
l
Airbags
inflate at an extremely rapid
speed. In certain situations, contact with
inflating airbags can result in abrasions,
light cuts, bruises, and the like.
Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch E00410100184
The front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch can
be
used to disable the front passenger’s airbag. If
you have a rearward facing child restraint system
that cannot be fitted to any seat other than the front
passenger seat, be sure to turn OFF the front passen-
ger’s airbag ON-OFF switch before using it. (Refer
to “To turn an airbag off” on page 2-30.) The front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch is lo-
cated in the glove box.
WARNING
l To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury:
• Always
remove the key from the igni-
tion switch before operating a front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.
Failure to do so could adversely affect
the airbag performance.
• Wait at least 60 seconds to operate the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch after turning the ignition
switch from “ON” position to
“LOCK” position.
The SRS airbag system is designed to
retain enough voltage to deploy the air-
bag. WARNING
• Always
remove the key from the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch af-
ter operating that switch. Failure to
do so could lead to improper position
of the front passenger’s airbag ON-
OFF switch.
To turn an airbag off E00410600219
To turn an airbag off, follow these steps:
1. Insert
the key into the key opening of the ap-
propriate front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch, and turn that airbag ON-OFF switch
to the “OFF” position.
2. Remove the key from the key opening of the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.
3. Insert the key into the ignition switch, and turn the ignition to the “ON” position. The front passenger’s airbag OFF indication lamp
will
stay on to show that the front passenger’s air-
bag is not operational. (“Front passenger’s airbag

play returns to “0”.
Fuel gauge E00500700902
The fuel gauge indicates the fuel level in the fuel
tank
when the ignition switch is in the “ON” position. F- Full
E- Empty
NOTE l When
the engine on diesel-powered vehicles
fails to operate due to running out of fuel, it
may sometimes be difficult to start after refu-
eling. This is due to air entering the fuel sys-
tem. Therefore, air must be bled from the sys-
tem. (Refer to “Bleeding the fuel system” on
page 6-05.) Fuel lid mark
The
fuel lid mark (A) indicates that the fuel tank fill-
er door is located on the left side of the vehicle (Re-
fer to “Filling the fuel tank” on page 02).
Low fuel warning lamp E00508100739
The warning lamp (A) comes on when the fuel lev-
el
is getting low (approx. 11 litres) with the igni-
tion switch in the “ON” position. Refuel as soon as
possible. NOTE
l On
inclines or curves, due to the movement
of fuel in the tank, the low fuel warning lamp
may indicate incorrectly. Instruments and controls

Indication lamps
E00501600012Turn-signal indication lamps/
Hazard warning indication
lamps
E00501700185
These
indication lamps blink on and off
when a turn-signal lamp is operating.
NOTE
l If the blinking is too fast, the
cause may be a blown lamp bulb
or a faulty turn-signal connection.
When the hazard warning lamp switch is
pressed, all turn-signal lamps will flash
on and off continuously. High-beam indication lamp
E00501800115
This
indication lamp illuminates when
the high-beam is used. Front fog lamp indication

E00502000068
This
indication lamp illuminates while
the rear fog lamp is on. Diesel preheat indication lamp
E00502300250
This
indication lamp illuminates when
the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position. As the glow plug becomes hot,
the lamp goes out and the engine can be
started. CAUTION
l
If
the diesel preheat indication
lamp comes on after the engine
is started, the engine speed may
not rise above the idling speed
because of fuel freezing. In this
case, keep the engine idling for
about ten minutes, then turn
off the ignition switch and im-
mediately turn it on again to
confirm that the diesel preheat
indication lamp is off.
NOTE l If
the engine is cold, the diesel pre-
heat indication lamp is on for a lon-
ger time.
l When the engine has not been star-
ted within about 5 seconds after
the diesel preheat indication lamp
went out, return the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position.
Then, turn the switch to the “ON”
position to preheat the engine
again. l
When
the engine is warm, the die-
sel preheat indication lamp does
not come on even if the ignition
switch is placed in the “ON” posi-
tion. Fuel filter indication lamp
E00509900170
This
indication lamp illuminates when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position and goes off after the engine
has started. If it lights up while the en-
gine is running, it indicates that water
has accumulated inside the fuel filter; if
this happens, remove the water from the
fuel filter.
Refer to “Removal of water from the
fuel filter” on page 6-06.
When the lamp goes out, you can re-
sume driving. If it either does not go out
or comes on from time to time, we rec-
ommend you to have the vehicle inspec-
ted. Instruments and controls

NOTE l Do
not leave the headlamps and other lamps
on for a long time while the engine is station-
ary (not running). A run-down battery could
result.
l When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon
as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob-
lem. When the lamp is switched on, the heat
will remove the fog. However, if water gath-
ers inside the lamp, we recommend you to
have it checked. Type 1
