to the P (Park) position and push the
ignition switch to the OFF position.
NOTE:
Care should be taken to avoid situations
that can lead to potential battery dis-

tronic accessories that consume bat-
tery power when the engine is not
running (phone chargers, GPS, DVD
players, etc.).
2. The vehicle is not driven regularly
and/or only driven short distances.
In these cases, the battery may need to
be charged to maintain battery health.

ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION
This system uses microphones1located
inside the vehicle to detect engine boom-
ing noise. The system then automatically
generates a noise canceling sound
through the speakers and woofer (if so
equipped) to reduce engine booming
noise. NOTE:
To operate the active noise cancellation
system properly:
∙ Do not cover the speakers or woofer
(if so equipped).
∙ Do not cover the microphones.
∙ Do not change or modif y speakers in-
cluding the woofer (if so equipped)
and any audio related components
such as the amplifier. ∙
Do not make any modification includ-
ing sound deadening or modifica-
tions around the microphones or
speakers.
ACTIVE SOUND ENHANCEMENT
Active sound enhancement enhances ex-
isting engine sounds according to the en-
gine speed and driving modes through the
speakers and woofer (if so equipped).

Check seat position controls such
as seat adjusters, seatback recliner, etc., to
ensure they operate smoothly and all
latches lock securely in every position.

move up and down smoothly and the locks
(if so equipped) hold securely in all latched
positions.
Seat belts: Check that all parts of the seat
belt system (for example, buckles, anchors,
adjusters and retractors) operate properly
and smoothly, and are installed securely.

steering system, such as excessive free
play, hard steering or strange noises.
Warning lights and chimes: Make sure all
warning lights and chimes are operating
properly.

comes out of the defroster outlets properly
and in sufficient quantity when operating
the heater or air conditioner. Windshield wiper and washer*:

tronic accessories that consume bat-
tery power when the engine is not
running (Phone chargers, GPS, DVD
players, etc.).
