y The shift position indicator light in the
instrument cluster illuminates. Refer
to Warning/Indicator Lights on page
4-24 .
 


y The selector lever must be in P or N to
operate the starter.

P (Park)
P locks the transaxle and prevents the front
wheels from rotating.
WARNING
Always set the selector lever to P and set
the parking brake:
Only setting the selector lever to the
P position without using the parking
brake to hold the vehicle is dangerous.
If P fails to hold, the vehicle could move
and cause an accident.

CAUTION
 


¾ Shifting into P, N or R while the vehicle is
moving can damage your transaxle.
 


¾ Shifting into a driving gear or reverse
when the engine is running faster than
idle can damage the transaxle.

R (Reverse)
In position R, the vehicle moves only
backward. You must be at a complete
stop before shifting to or from R, except
under rare circumstances as explained in
Rocking the Vehicle (page 3-43 ).
N (Neutral)
In N, the wheels and transaxle are not
locked. The vehicle will roll freely even
on the slightest incline unless the parking
brake or brakes are on.
WARNING
If the engine is running faster than idle,
do not shift from N or P into a driving
gear:
It's dangerous to shift from N or P
into a driving gear when the engine
is running faster than idle. If this is
done, the vehicle could move suddenly,
causing an accident or serious injury.

Do not shift into N when driving the
vehicle:
Shifting into N while driving is
dangerous. Engine braking cannot
be applied when decelerating which
could lead to an accident or serious
injury.

i-ACTIVSENSE
*Some models.
Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) *
The LDWS system noti¿ es the driver that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane.
The system detects the white or yellow lines on the traf¿ c lane using the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC) and if it determines that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane, it noti¿ es
the driver using the active driving display (vehicles with active driving display), and by
À ashing the LDWS warning light and activating the LDWS warning beep.
Use the LDWS when you drive the vehicle on roads with white or yellow lines.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera on page 4-111 .


Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
LDWS warning light

The warning light illuminates when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Lights on page 4-25 .
WARNING
Do not use the LDWS under the following conditions:
The system may not operate adequately according to the actual driving conditions,
resulting in an accident.
 


¾ Driving on roads with tight curves.



¾ Driving under bad weather conditions (rain, fog, and snow).

The functions of the LDWS have limitations:
Always stay on course using the steering wheel and drive with care. The system is not
designed to compensate for a driver’s lack of caution and if you rely too much on the
LDWS it could lead to an accident. The driver is responsible for assuring lane changes and
other maneuvers. Always pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is traveling
and the vehicle’s surroundings.

y The LDWS does not operate until the
system detects a white or yellow line on
either the left or right.
 


y When the system detects a white or
yellow line on one side only, the system
will activate the warning only when the
vehicle deviates on the side where the
white or yellow line is being detected.
 


y The distance and warning sensitivity
(likelihood of a warning) which the
system uses to determine the possibility
of a lane departure can be changed.
  Refer to Personalization Features on
page 9-10 .

In the following cases, the LDWS cancels
automatically and the LDWS warning
light in the instrument cluster turns on.
 


y The temperature inside the camera is
high or low.
 


y The windshield around the camera is
foggy.
 


y The windshield around the camera is
blocked by an obstruction, causing poor

y If the LDWS warning sound is set to
rumble *1 , the sound will be heard from
the vehicle speaker on the side which
the system determined the vehicle may
be deviating from its lane.

*1 A rumble strip is a series of grooves in
the road pavement surface positioned at
speci¿ c intervals, and when the vehicle
passes over it a vibration and rumble
sound is produced which alerts the
driver that the vehicle is departing from
the lane.
  The rumble sound is a reproduction of

Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) *
The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) measures the distance between your
vehicle and a vehicle ahead using a radar sensor (front) while the vehicle speed is 30 km/h
or faster (19 mph or faster), and indicates a recommended distance to maintain between the
vehicles. Furthermore, if your vehicle approaches a vehicle ahead more closely than the
appropriate distance to maintain between the vehicles, the vehicle-ahead indication in the
active driving display is À ashed to advise the driver to keep a safer distance from the vehicle
ahead.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) and always
drive carefully:
The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) provides advice for safer driving and
notifi es the driver of a recommended, safer distance to maintain with a vehicle ahead.
The ability to detect a vehicle ahead is limited depending on the type of vehicle ahead,
the weather conditions, and the traffi c conditions. Therefore, if the accelerator and brake
pedals are not operated correctly it could lead to an accident. Always verify the safety of
the surrounding area and depress the brake pedal or accelerator pedal while keeping a
safer distance from vehicles ahead or on-coming vehicles.

N O T E
 


y The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) operates when all of the following
conditions are met:

y The ignition is switched ON.
y The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) is on.
y The selector lever is in a position other than reverse (R).
y The vehicle speed is 30 km/h or faster (19 mph or faster). y The objects which activate the system are 4-wheeled vehicles.



y The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) may also operate in the presence of
motorcycles and bicycles.
 


y The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) may not operate normally under the
following conditions:
 


y The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) has a malfunction.



y The vehicle ahead is traveling at an extremely slow speed.
