The light flashes when the turn signal switch
lever or hazard switch is turned on.
AUDIBLE REMINDERS
Key reminder chime
A chime will sound if the driver side door is
opened while the ignition switch is pushed to
the ACC position. Make sure the ignition
switch is pushed to the OFF position, and
take the Intelligent Key with you when

above. If an oncoming vehicle or leading
vehicle appears in front of your vehicle when
the headlight high beam is on, the headlight
will be switched to the low beam automa-
tically.
Precautions on high beam assist:
WARNING
.The high beam assist system is a
convenience but it is not a substitute
for safe driving operation. The driver
should remain alert at all times,
ensure safe driving practices and
switch the high beams and low beam
manually when necessary.
. The high beam or low beam may not
switch automatically under the fol-
lowing conditions. Switch the high
beam and low beam manually.
— During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, wind, etc.).
— When a light source similar to a headlight or tail light is in the
vicinity of the vehicle.
— When the headlights of the on- coming vehicle or the leading
vehicle are turned off, when the
color of the light is affected due to
foreign materials on the lights, or when the light beam is out of
position.
— When there is a sudden, contin- uous change in brightness.
— When driving on a road that passes over rolling hills, or a road
that has level differences.
— When driving on a road with many curves.
— When a sign or mirror-like sur- face is reflecting intense light
towards the front of the vehicle.
— When the container, etc. being towed by a leading vehicle is
reflecting intense light.
— When a headlight on your vehicle is damaged or dirty.
— When the vehicle is leaning at an angle due to a punctured tire,
being towed, etc.
. The timing of switching the low beam
and high beam may change under the
following situations.
— The brightness of the headlights of the oncoming vehicle or leading
vehicle.
— The movement and direction of the oncoming vehicle and the leading vehicle.
— When only one light on the on- coming vehicle or the leading
vehicle is illuminated.
— When the oncoming vehicle or the leading vehicle is a two-wheeled
vehicle.
— Road conditions (incline, curve, the road surface, etc.).
— The number of passengers and the amount of luggage.

The heated steering wheel system is de-
signed to operate only when the surface
temperature of the steering wheel is below
68°F (20°C).
Push the heated steering wheel switch to
warm the steering wheel after the engine
starts. The indicator light
on the switch
will illuminate.
If the surface temperature of the steering
wheel is below 68°F (20°C), the system will
heat the steering wheel and cycle off and on
to maintain a temperature above 68°F
(20°C). The indicator light will remain on as
long as the system is on.
Push the switch again to turn the heated
steering wheel system off manually. The

Flicker image (example)
. When LED headlights are viewed on the
Smart Rearview Mirror display, the
images may flicker. This is normal.
. Due to diffused reflection from external
environment, images on the screen may
flicker. This is not a malfunction.
. A quick movement of a thing may not be
able to display on the camera view
screen. This is not a malfunction.
. Turn on the headlights at twilight or in a
tunnel, etc.
. The Smart Rearview Mirror mode (cam-
era view mode) display is different from
the conventional rearview mirror. Ob-
jects in the display may differ from actual distance. Do not solely rely on
the Smart Rearview Mirror. Always rely
on your own operation to avoid acci-
dents.
. If the brightness of the camera view
display is adjusted to excessive bright
level, it may cause an eyestrain in the
driving. Adjust the brightness properly.
. Use the rear window wiper when it rains.
If the camera view image is still unclear
when the rear window wiper is in
operation, check the deterioration of
the rear window wiper blade.
. When using the rear window wiper,
images on the screen may flicker. This
is not a malfunction.
. Defog the rear window with defroster
when rear window is fogged. Use the
conventional rearview mirror mode until
the rear window is fully defogged.
. The display of the Smart Rearview
Mirror may become hot. This is not a
malfunction.
. The color of an object in the distance or
in the dark may be difficult to be
recognized. This is not a malfunction.
System maintenance (Smart Rearview
Mirror):
. Always keep the mirror and camera area
of the rear window clean. .
Clean the mirror and the camera lens
with a dry soft cloth.
. When cleaning the camera area of the
rear window, use a soft cloth dampened
with water and a neutral detergent. Then
dry it with a dry soft cloth.
. If the image on the Smart Rearview
Mirror display screen is still unclear even
after cleaning the camera area of the
rear window, an oil film may be adhering
to the rear window glass. Clean the rear
window glass with an oil film remover.
. Never use alcohol, benzine, thinner, or
any similar material to clean the mirror or
camera lens. It will cause a discoloration,
deterioration or a system malfunction.
. Do not attach a sticker (including trans-
parent material) on the camera area of
the rear window.
OUTSIDE MIRRORS
WARNING
. Objects viewed in the outside mirror
on the passenger side are closer than
they appear. Be careful when moving
to the right. Using only this mirror
could cause an accident. Use the
inside mirror or glance over your
shoulder to properly judge distances
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-37

5-46Starting and driving
— On roads where discontinued lanemarkers are still detectable.
— On roads where there are sharp curves.
— On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects, such as sha-
dows, snow, water, wheel ruts,
seams or lines remaining after
road repairs.
— On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
— When the vehicle’s traveling di- rection does not align with the
lane markers.
— When traveling close to the ve- hicle in front of you, which ob-
structs the lane camera unit
detection range.
— When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the windshield in front of a lane
camera unit.
— When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
if aiming is not adjusted properly.
— When strong light enters a lane camera unit. (For example: light
directly shines on the front of the
vehicle at sunrise or sunset.) — When a sudden change in bright-
ness occurs. (For example: when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel
or under a bridge.)
. Do not use the BSI system under the
following conditions because the sys-
tem may not function properly.
— During bad weather. (For exam- ple: rain, fog, snow, etc.)
— When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow, etc.
— When driving on winding or un- even roads.
— When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
— When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane.
— When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
— When driving with a tire that is not within normal tire conditions
(for example, tire wear, low tire
pressure, installation of spare tire,
tire chains, non-standard wheels).
— When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or sus-
pension parts. — When towing a trailer or other
vehicle.
. Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume, open vehicle window)
will interfere with the chime sound,
and it may not be heard.
