How to use the rear-view cam-
era
When you place the gearshift lever or selec-
tor lever in the “R” position with the ignition switch or the operation mode in ON, the view
behind the vehicle will automatically appear on the screen of the DISPLAY AUDIO, the
Smartphone-link Display Audio (SDA) or the Smartphone-link Display Audio (SDA) navi-
gation system. When you move the gearshift lever or the selector lever to any other posi-
tion, the screen will return to its original indi-
cation.
CAUT,ONz The rear-view camera has a special lens that
can make objects shown on the screen ap- pear to be closer or further away than they
actually are.NOTEz Because the rear-view camera has a special
lens, the lines on the ground between park-
ing spaces may not look parallel on the screen.
z In the following situations, the screen indi-
cation may be difficult to see. There is no abnormality.

zRed line (B) indicates approximately
50 cm behind the rear bumper.
z Two Green lines (C) indicate approxi-
mately 20 cm outside of the vehicle
body.
z Short transverse lines (1 to 3) indicate
distance from the rear bumper.Check surroundings for safety.
1. Approximately at the rear edge of the
rear bumper (if so equipped)
2. Approximately 100 cm
3. Approximately 200 cm
NOTEz On vehicles equipped with the Smartphone-
link Display Audio (SDA) or the Smart-
phone- link Display Audio (SDA) naviga-
tion system, it is possible to change the dis-
play language of the screen. For details, please refer to the separated owner

When installing the roof carrier, use the brackets (A).
The brackets (A) are located under each roof
drip moulding (B).
Roof carrier precautionsCAUT,ONz Make sure that the weight of the luggage
does not exceed the allowable roof load.
If the allowable roof load is exceeded, this may cause damage to the vehicle.
The roof load is the total allowable load on
the roof (the weight of the roof carrier plus
the weight of luggage placed on the roof car- rier).
For the specific value, refer to “Maximum
roof load” on page 11-06.
z When luggage is loaded onto the vehicle,
please make sure to drive slowly and avoid
excessive manoeuvres such as sudden brak- ing or quick turning.
In addition, place the luggage on the carrier
so that its weight is distributed evenly with the heaviest items on the bottom. Do not load items that are wider than the roof carri-
er.
The additional weight on the roof could raise
the vehicle

Maximum towable weight withbrake and maximum trailer- nose weight
Never exceed the maximum towable weight
with brake and the maximum trailer-nose weight as listed in the specifications.
(Refer to page 11-06.)
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more than
1,000 m above sea-level, reduce your weight by 10 % of the gross combination weight for
every increase of 1,000 m above sea-level, as
the engine output is lowered owing to de-
crease in atmospheric pressure.

Operating hints
z To prevent the clutch from slipping (Ve-
hicle with a M/T only), do not rev the
engine more than is required when start- ing off.
z Be sure that the driving speed does not
exceed 100 km/h (62 mph) for trailer op-
eration. It is also recommended that you obey the local regulations in case driving
speed with a trailer is limited to less than 100 km/h (62 mph).
z To prevent shocks from the overrun
brake, depress the brake pedal lightly at first and then more strongly.
z To make full use of engine braking,
change to a lower shift point before de- scending a slope.
Additional precautions for vehi-
cles equipped with a CVT
It is recommended the “D” position on slopes
or at low speed.
Use the sports mode in mountainous areas in order to make better use of engine braking
and to assist the brake system. However, be
sure that the speed does not exceed the maxi- mum speed limit for the selected shift posi-
tion.
Overheating
This will normally occur as a result of some
mechanical failure. If your vehicle should overheat, stop and check for a loose or bro-ken water pump/alternator drive belt, a
blocked radiator air intake or a low coolant level. If these items are satisfactory the over-
heating could be caused by a number of me-
chanical causes that would have to be
checked at a competent service centre.
CAUT,ONz If the engine overheats, please refer to the
“Engine overheating” section of “For emer-
gencies” prior to taking any corrective ac-
tion.CAUT,ONz On vehicles equipped with CVT, if the warning display is showing, the temperature
of the CVT fluid is high.
Read the reference page and take the re- quired measures.
Refer to “When a malfunction occurs in the
CVT” on page 6-28.
