Multi-View Rear Camera
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.

Parking Sensor System*
When the system senses an object when you are parking or backing up, an indicator
appears on the upper display and a series of beeps will sound. As you get closer to
the object, the beep rate increases.
Turning the System On or OffPress the parking sensor button. A green indicator
light appears on the button when the system is on.

Display indicators
Parking sensor button
Do not continuously spin the front tires of your vehicle. Continuously spinning
the front tires can cause damage to the transmission and SH-AWD unit.
If the SH-AWD light blinks while driving, it indicates the differential temperature
is too high. If this happens, pull to the side of the road when it is safe, shift to
park, and idle the engine until the indicator goes out.
NOTICE
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.

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:
•
Pr
ess and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for
two seconds, or
•
Firml
y press the ENGINE START/STOP button two
times.
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
Overheating
Signs your engine is overheating: •
The
temperature gauge needle is at the H mark
•
The engine suddenl
y loses power
•
Steam
or spray comes out from under the hood
•
The message
Engine Temperature Too Hot appears on the display.
1.
Immediatel
y park the vehicle in a safe place. Turn
off all accessories and turn on the hazard warning
lights.
2.
If no steam
or spray is present: Keep the
engine running and open the hood (see page
118).
If steam or spray is present: Turn off the engine
and wait until it subsides. Then, open the hood
(see page 118).
3.
Check that the
cooling fan is operating and stop the engine once the
temperature gauge needle goes down. If the cooling fan is not operating,
immediately stop the engine.
4.
Once
the engine has cooled down, inspect the coolant level and check the
cooling system components for leaks. If the coolant level in the reserve tank
is low, add coolant until it reaches the MAX mark. If there is no coolant in the
reserve tank, make sure the radiator is cool, then cover the radiator cap with a
heavy cloth and open the cap. If necessary, add coolant up to the base of the
filler neck, and put the cap back on.
Once the engine has cooled sufficiently, restart it and check the temperature
gauge. If the temperature needle has gone down, resume driving. If it has not gone
down, contact a dealer for repairs.
Reserve tank MAX
MIN
Steam and spray from an overheated engine can seriously scald you.
Do not open the hood if steam is coming out.
WARNING
Removing the radiator 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 radiator
cap.
WARNING
Continuing to drive with the temperature gauge needle at the H mark may
damage the engine.
