CARGO AREA FEATURES
Cargo Load Floor
The vehicle is equipped with a load floor that can be adjusted as needed.
Position 1 (Floor Flush):
This position allows you to make the load floor flat for ease of loading/unloading
objects from the cargo area. This position also makes it possible to use the space
below as another compartment for storing fragile or smaller objects.
Position 2 (Elevated Position):
When the rear seatbacks and front passenger seat is folded flat, it will allow for
loading objects of long dimensions. It is recommended to use this position only
during the actual transporting of the objects.
Table Tilt Load
In addition to the two positions described above, the load floor can also be placed in
a tilted position (slanted toward the rear seatbacks as to ease the access to the
underlying zone of the luggage compartment (e.g. to pick up the spare tire or the Tire
Service Kit).
Place the load floor in a way that it rests at the supports 1 and 2 on the sides of the
cargo area.
The load floor provides securing of any cargo inside this position, so that the cargo
will slide in the case of sudden braking.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS
- Low Fuel Warning Light
This warning light indicates when the fuel level reaches approximately 2.0 gal (7.8 L).
This light will turn on and a single chime will sound.
-ChargingSystemLight
This light shows the status of the electrical charging system. If the charging system
light remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the
charging system.
We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have
the vehicle serviced immediately.
- Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on while driving, stop
the vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound for four
minutes when this light turns on.
We recommend you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately.
- Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). The light will turn on when the
ignition switch is turned to the MAR/RUN position and may stay on for as long as four
seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock
portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is required. However,
the conventional brake system will continue to operate normally if the BRAKE
warning light is not on.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
156

If the ABS light is on, the brake system should be serviced as soon as possible to
restore the benefits of Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light does not turn on when the
ignition switch is turned to the MAR/RUN position, have the light inspected by an
authorized dealer.
- Air Bag Warning Light
This light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition
switch is first turned to the MAR/RUN position. If the light is either not on during
starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the system inspected at an
authorized dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Safety” in
your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further information.
NOTE:
The Air Bag System is designed to be maintenance free.
- Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.
If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle the
ignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever/gear selector
is placed in the PARK position; the light should turn off.
If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable.
However, see an authorized service center immediately. If the light is flashing when
the engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience reduced
performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require
towing.
-TirePressureMonitoringSystem(TPMS)Light
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly, when cold
and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a
different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) which display in the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID) when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure EVIC or DID
display illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping
ability.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
157

- Engine Temperature Warning Light
• This light warns of an overheated engine condition.
• If the light turns on and a warning chime sounds while driving, safely pull over and
stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into
NEUTRAL and idle the vehicle. If the temperature reading does not return to
normal, turn the engine off immediately.
• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur.
Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by
steam or boiling coolant.
-Transmission Temperature Warning Light
This light indicates that there is excessive transmission fluid temperature that might
occur with severe usage such as trailer towing. If this light turns on, stop the vehicle
and run the engine at idle, with the transmission in NEUTRAL, until the light turns
off. Once the light turns off, you may continue to drive normally.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission Temperature Warning Light illuminated
will eventually cause severe transmission damage or transmission failure.
WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when the Transmission Temperature Warning
Light is illuminated you could cause the fluid to boil over, come in contact with hot
engine or exhaust components and cause a fire.
- Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is first turned to MAR/RUN, this light will turn on if the
driver’s seat belt is unbuckled, and a chime will sound. When driving, if the driver’s
seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will illuminate, and the
chime will sound.
Please have your vehicle serviced immediately should the Seat Belt Reminder Light
remain on.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
159

- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is part of an onboard diagnostic system called
OBD II that monitors engine and automatic transmission control systems. The light
will illuminate when the key is in the MAR/RUN position before engine start. If the
bulb does not come on when turning the key from STOP/OFF to MAR/RUN, have the
condition checked promptly.
Certain conditions, poor fuel quality, etc., may illuminate the light after engine start.
The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several of your typical driving
cycles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and will not require towing.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) on could causedamage to the engine control system. It also could affect fuel economy anddriveability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic converter damage and powerloss will soon occur. Immediate service is required.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced above, can reach higher tempera-
tures than in normal operating conditions. This can cause a fire if you drive slowly or
park over flammable substances such as dry plants, wood, cardboard, etc. This could
result in death or serious injury to the driver, occupants or others.
– SERV (Service) 4WD Indicator Light
If the light stays on or comes on during driving, it means that the 4WD system is not
functioning properly and that service is required. We recommend you drive to the
nearest service center and have the vehicle serviced immediately.
-ElectronicStabilityControl(ESC)Activation/MalfunctionIndicatorLight
If this indicator light flashes during acceleration, apply as little throttle as possible.
While driving, ease up on the accelerator. Adapt your speed and driving to the
prevailing road conditions. To improve the vehicle's traction when starting off in deep
snow, sand or gravel, it may be desirable to switch the ESC system off.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INDICATOR LIGHTS
- Turn Signal Indicator
The arrows will flash with the exterior turn signals when the turn signal lever is
operated. A tone will chime, and a EVIC/DID message will appear if either turn signal
is left on for more than 1 mile (1.6 km).
NOTE:
If either indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
161

IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating your
engine by taking the appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, put transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not increase
engine idle speed.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle. If the temperature
gauge reads “H,” pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air
conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the
pointer remains on the “H” and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off
immediately and call for service.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the
engine cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the temperature control to maximum heat, the mode control to
floor and the blower control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a
supplement to the radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling
system.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from
your radiator. If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, do not open
the hood until the radiator has had time to cool. Never try to open a cooling system
pressure cap when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.
