For safety and security
CAUTION
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce
the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
● Do not place anything under the front seats.
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat
tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an acci-
dent and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
● When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start to
feel tired.
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con-
tinue driving and take a break immediately.

canceled.
■System maintenance
The vehicle has a maintenance-free type immobilizer system.
■ Conditions that may cause the system to malfunction
Depending on the surrounding environment and conditions, the immobilizer
system may not operate properly. This may prevent the EV system from start-
ing. ( P. 125)
■ Certifications for th e immobilizer system
FCC ID: NI4TMIMB-2
NOTE:
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interfer-
ence, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including

EV system
■Driving Range
■ Sound and vibrations speci fic to an electric vehicle
Because an electric vehicle does not have the engine sound or vibrations that
a conventional vehicle has, the driver may not notice that the “READY” indi-
cator is illuminated and the vehicle can be driven. For safety reasons, always
shift the shift lever to P and apply the parking brake when the vehicle is
parked.
Before and after the EV system is started, the following sounds and vibrations
may occur.
However, these sounds and/or vibrations are not signs of malfunctions:
● The brake system operation sound heard from the front of the vehicle when
the driver’s door is opened.
● Motor sounds coming from the motor compartment.
● Electrical relay sounds may be heard from the motor compartment when the
EV system starts or stops.
● Relay operating sounds such as a snap or soft clank will be emitted from the
traction battery in the following situations:
• When the EV system is started or stopped
• When charging starts or finishes
• When the vehicle is driven the first time after the traction battery has been
charged using quick charge
● Operating sounds or motor sounds that occur when the brake pedal is oper-
ated.
● Cooling fan operating sounds from the radiator and/or traction battery.
● The operation sound of the air conditioning system (air conditioning com-
pressor, blower motor).
An estimated possible driving range,
which is calculated from traction battery’s
remaining charge, the air conditioning
operating mode and so forth, is shown on
the multi-information display.
However, the actual possible driving
range significantly varies depending on
the driving manner, weather and usage of
electrical components.
Use the estimated possible driving range
as a reference only, and try to keep the
battery as charged as possible.

1284-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors
■When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
●To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2
m) of the vehicle.
● The smart key system can be deactivated in advance. ( P. 414)
■ To operate the system properly
Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating the system. Do not get
the electronic key too close to the vehicle when operating the system from the
outside of the vehicle.
Depending on the position and holding condition of the electronic key, the key
may not be detected correctly and the system may not operate properly. (The
alarm may go off accidentally, or the door lock prevention function may not
operate.)
■ If the smart key system do es not operate properly
● Locking and unlocking the doors: Use the mechanical key. ( P. 384)
● Starting the EV system: P. 384
■ Electronic key battery depletion
●The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
● If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the EV
system stops. ( P. 353)
● As the electronic key always receives radio waves, the battery will become
depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms indi-
cate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery
when necessary. ( P. 299)
• The smart key system or the wireless remote control does not operate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
● To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 3 ft.
(1 m) of the following electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless phones
• Induction cookers
• Table lamps

1484-5. Opening, closing the windows
■When the power window does not close normally
If the jam protection function is operating abnormally and a window cannot be
closed, perform the following operations using the power window switch on
the relevant door.
●After stopping the vehicle, the window can be closed by holding the power
window switch in the one-touch closing position while the power switch is
turned to ON mode.
● If the window still cannot be closed even by carrying out the operation as
explained above, initialize the function by performing the following proce-
dure.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch closing position. Continue
holding the switch for a further 6 seconds after the window has closed.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch opening position. Con-
tinue holding the switch for a further 2 seconds after the window has
opened completely.

Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■ Closing the windows
● Check to make sure that all passengers do not have any part of their body
in a position where it could be caught when a window is being operated.
● Do not allow children to operate the power windows.
Closing a power window on someone can cause serious injury, and in
some instances, even death.
■ Jam protection function
● Never use any part of your body to intentionally activate the jam protection
function.
