When in Operation
If a vehicle detected ahead of you slows down
abruptly, or if another vehicle cuts in front of
you, a beep sounds and BRAKE appears on the
multi-information display to alert you.
When a vehicle detected ahead is within ACC
with low speed follow range and stops, your
vehicle also stops. The Stopped message
appears on the multi-information display.
When the vehicle ahead of you starts again, the vehicle icon on the multi-
information display blinks. Press RES/+/SET/– up or down, or press the
accelerator pedal to resume the prior set speed.
Canceling ACCYou can press CANCEL or MAIN, or press the brake
pedal. The ACC indicator goes off.
Certain conditions may cause ACC to cancel
automatically. When this happens, a beep sounds
and a message appears on the multi-information
display.
After cruise control has been canceled, you can still
resume the prior set speed by pressing RES/ACCEL.
Improper use of ACC with LSF can lead to a crash.
Use ACC with LSF only when driving on expressways or freeways and in good
weather conditions.
WARNING
Exiting a vehicle that has been stopped while the ACC with LSF system is
operating can result in the vehicle moving without operator control. Always
make sure Park (P) is selected before exiting the vehicle.
A vehicle that moves without operator control can cause a crash, resulting in
serious injury or death.
Never exit a vehicle when the vehicle is stopped by ACC with LSF.
WARNING
ACC with LSF has limited braking capability and may not stop your vehicle in
time to avoid a collision with a vehicle that quickly stops in front of you.
Always be prepared to apply the brake pedal if the conditions require.
WARNING
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed and a set following distance behind a
vehicle detected ahead of yours. When the vehicle ahead changes speed, ACC
senses the change and accelerates or decelerates to maintain a set interval.

When you shift into Reverse (R), a real-time image of the area behind your vehicle
is shown in the display, along with helpful parking guidelines.
The rear camera view is restricted. You cannot see the corner ends of the bumper or what is underneath
the bumper. Its unique lens also makes objects appear closer or farther than they actually are.
Visually confirm that it is safe to drive before backing up. Certain conditions (such as weather, lighting,
and high temperatures) may also restrict the rear view. Do not rely on the rearview display, which does
not give you all information about conditions at the rear of your vehicle.

Super Handling-All Wheel Drive (SH-AWD)*
Controls and transfers varying amounts of engine torque to each wheel depending
on driving conditions.
SH-AWD helps enhance stability in driving situations involving slippery surfaces,
such as on wet, icy, or snowy roads. The system does not help enhance braking. It is
still your responsibility to drive safely when you steer, accelerate, and apply brakes.
Leave sufficient distance in front of you when braking on slippery surfaces.
Avoid continuously driving on slippery surfaces where a wheel is likely to spin out,
and do not drive if the SH-AWD indicator starts blinking. Driving continuously
under such conditions can damage the system’s torque distribution unit.

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, choose one of
the following operations:
The steering wheel will not lock. The power mode changes to ACCESSORY, unless
the shift lever is in Park, in which case the power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF.
Because turning off the engine also 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. Downshift gears and use both feet on the
brake pedal, if necessary, to slow the vehicle and stop immediately in a safe place.
Do not press the button while driving unless it is absolutely necessary for the
engine to be switched off.
Emergency Towing
Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.
All models
Flat bed equipment: The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a truck. This is
the best way to transport your vehicle.
2WD models
Wheel lift equipment: The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the front
tires and lift them off the ground. The rear tires remain on the ground. This is an
acceptable way to tow your vehicle.
NOTICE
Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. The
bumpers are not designed to support the vehicle’s weight.
Improper towing such as towing behind a motorhome or other motor vehicle can
damage the transmission.
NOTICE
• Press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP
button for two seconds, or
• Firmly press the ENGINE START/STOP button
two times.

Roll the right selector
wheel to the tire
pressure monitor to
see which tire(s) have
low pressure.
Tire Fill Assist
Your vehicle gives you visual and audible alerts to help you adjust the tire
pressure to its appropriate level. For your reference, the proper tire pressure
levels are located on a label on the driver’s doorjamb.
1. Stop your vehicle with the tire that needs to be filled nearest to a tire air fill
hose. Shift into Park (P). Turn the vehicle off.
2. Turn the vehicle on. The assist system is activated for 5 minutes.
3. Attach the air hose to the valve stem, and begin to fill the tire.
While inflating: The system beeps and the hazard lights flash once every 5
seconds as tire pressure changes while below the correct pressure.
When the correct pressure is reached: The system beeps and the hazard lights
flash continuously for 5 seconds. Stop filling the tire.
If you overinflate: The system beeps and the hazard lights flash twice every 5
seconds.
Driving on an extremely underinflated tire can cause it to overheat. An
overheated tire can fail. Always inflate your tires to the specified pressure.

Learn about basic maintenance that you can perform on the vehicle yourself, as
well as information about how to best maintain the vehicle.
Safety Precautions
Some of the most important safety precautions are listed below; however,
we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing
maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you should perform a given task.
Maintenance Safety
• To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames
away from the battery and all fuel-related parts.
• Never leave rags, towels, or other flammable objects under the hood.
• To clean parts, use a commercially available degreaser or parts cleaner, not
gasoline.
• Wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with the battery or
compressed air.
• Do not run the engine in confined spaces where carbon monoxide gas can
accumulate.
Vehicle Safety
• The vehicle must be in a stationary condition, and parked on level ground with
the parking brake set and the engine off.
• Be aware that hot parts can burn you.
• Be aware that moving parts can injure you.
• Do not open the hood during auto idle stop operation* (see page 83).
MAINTENANCE
Improperly maintaining this vehicle or failing to correct a problem before
driving can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.
Always follow the inspection and maintenance recommendations according to
the schedules in this guide.
WARNING
Failure to properly follow maintenance instructions and precautions can cause
you to be seriously hurt or killed.
Always follow the procedures and precautions in this guide.
WARNING
*if equipped
Inspecting and Changing Fuses
1. Turn off the vehicle, including the
headlights and all accessories.
2. Remove the fuse box cover.
3. Check the large fuse in the engine
compartment. If the fuse is blown, use a
Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the
screw and replace the fuse with a new one.
4. Inspect the small fuses in the engine
compartment and the vehicle interior. If
there is a burned out fuse, remove it with
the fuse puller and replace it with a new
one.
Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chances
of damaging the electrical system.
