Information
This system can only sense objects
within the certain range and location.
it cannot detect objects in other areas
where sensors are not installed. Also,
the sensor may not detect small and
slim objects, or objects located in
blind spots between sensors.
Always check the presence of any
objects in front of or behind the vehi-
cle with your eyes when parking.
Make sure to inform these system
capabilities and limitations to any
drivers of this vehicle who may be
unfamiliar with the system.
Self-diagnosis
If you do not hear an audible warning
sound or if the buzzer sounds inter-
mittently when shifting the gear to
the R (Reverse) position, this may
indicate a malfunction with the rear
Parking Assist System. In this case,
have your vehicle checked by an
authorized EQUUS dealer as soon
as possible.

Convenient features of your vehiclePay close attention when the
vehicle is driven close to
objects on the road, particularly
pedestrians, and especially
children. Be aware that some
objects may not be detected by
the sensors, due to the object
distance, size or material, all of
which can limit the effective-
ness of the sensor. Always
make sure that the vehicle
stands clear of all objects with
your eyes before moving the
vehicle in any direction.
WARNING
Your new vehicle warranty does
not cover any accidents or dam-
age to the vehicle or injuries to
its occupants related to the

Battery saver function
The purpose of this function is toprevent the battery from being dis-
charged. The system automatical-
ly turns OFF the parking lights
when the driver turns OFF the
engine and opens the driver's
door.
With this function, the parking lights are turned OFF automatical-
ly if the driver parks the vehicle on
the side of the road at night.
If necessary, in order to keep the
lights ON when the engine is
turned OFF, perform the follow-
ings:
1) Open the driver-side door.
2) Turn the parking lights ON and OFF again using the light
switch on the steering column.
Headlamp escort function
When you press the Engine
Start/Stop button to the ACC or OFF
position with the headlamps ON, the
headlamps (and/or tail lights) remain
ON for approximately 5 minutes.
However, when the driver’s door is
open and then closed, the head-
lamps are turned OFF after 15 sec-
onds.
The headlamps can be turned OFF
by pressing the lock button on the
Smart Key twice or turning the light
switch to the OFF or Auto position.
However, when you turn the light
switch to the Auto position, and when
it is dark outside, the headlamps will
not be turned OFF.
If the driver exit the vehicle
through other doors (except dri-
ver’s door), the battery saver func-
tion does not operate and the
headlamp escort function does
not turn OFF automatically.
Therefore, it discharges the bat-
tery. In this case, make sure to
turn OFF the lamp before exiting
the vehicle.

occurs, but leveling operates contin-
uously.If the AFLS malfunction indicator illu-
minates, the AFLS does not work
properly. Drive to the nearest safe
location and restart the engine. If the
indicator continuously remains ON,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized EQUUS dealer.

• When you operate the wipers, if your vehicle has a problem in any
part of the wiper operation system,
the wiper may operate in the LO
mode regardless of the wiper switch
position. In this case, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
EQUUS dealer as soon as possible.
• When the engine is turned OFF, the wiper blade sometimes may move
slightly for reducing the deteriora-
tion of the windshield wipers.
