High beam assist
The high beam assist system will operate
when the vehicle is driven at approxi-
mately 25 MPH (40 km/h) and 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 auto-
matically.
Precautions on high beam assist:
WARNING
.The high beam assist system is a
convenience but it is not a sub-
stitute for safe driving operation.
The driver should remain alert at
all times, ensure safe driving
practices and switch the high
beam and low beam manually
when necessary.
. The high beam or low beam may
not switch automatically under
the following 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 oncoming vehicle or the lead-
ing vehicle are turned off,
when the color of the light is
affected due to foreign mate-
rials on the lights, or when the
light beam is out of position.
— When there is a sudden, con- tinuous change in brightness.
— When driving on a road that passes over rolling hills, or a
road that has level differ-
ences.
— When driving on a road with many curves.
— When a sign or mirror-like surface 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 situa-
tions.
— The brightness of the head-
lights 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 oncoming vehicle or the lead-
ing 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.

Battery saver system
A chime will sound when the driver side
door is opened with the headlight switch
in the
orposition and the ignition
switch in the OFF or LOCK position.
When the headlight switch is in the
orposition while the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the lights will automati-
cally turn off after a period of time when
the ignition switch has been pushed to
the OFF position.
When the headlight switch remains in the
orposition after the lights auto-
matically turn off, the lights will turn on
when the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position.
CAUTION
. When you turn on the headlight
switch again after the lights auto-
matically turn off, the lights will
not turn off automatically. Be
sure to turn the headlight switch
to the OFF (if so equipped) or the
AUTO position when you leave
the vehicle for extended periods of time, otherwise the battery will
be discharged.
. Never leave the headlight switch
on when the engine is not run-
ning for extended periods of time
even if the headlights turn off
automatically.
Daytime Running Light (DRL) sys-
tem
The LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL)
automatically illuminate when the engine
is started and the parking brake is
released. The LED DRL operate with the
headlight switch in the OFF (if so
equipped),
, or AUTO (when the head-
lights are off) position. When you turn the
headlight switch to the
position for
full illumination, the LED lights switch
from LED DRL to the park function.
Type A (if so equipped): If the parking
brake is applied before the engine is
started, the LED DRL do not illuminate.
The LED DRL illuminate when the parking
brake is released. This feature will work in
the
, AUTO or OFF position. The LED
DRL will remain on until the ignition
switch is placed in the OFF position.
Type B (if so equipped): If the parking
brake is applied before the engine is
started, the LED DRL do not illuminate. The LED DRL illuminate when the parking
brake is released. This feature will work in

placed in the OFF position.
WARNING
When the LED DRL system is active
with the headlight switch in the OFF
position (if so equipped), tail lights
on your vehicle are not on. It is
necessary at dusk to turn on your
headlights. Failure to do so could
cause an accident injuring yourself
and others.

To sound the horn, push the center pad
area of the steering wheel.
WARNING
Do not disassemble the horn. Doing
so could affect proper operation of
the supplemental front air bag sys-
tem. Tampering with the supple-
mental front air bag system may
result in serious personal injury.
WARNING
Do not use or allow occupants to use
the seat heater if you or the occu-
pants cannot monitor elevated seat
temperatures or have an inability to
feel pain in body parts that contact
the seat. Use of the seat heater by
such people could result in serious
injury.
CAUTION
.The battery could run down if the
seat heater is operated while the
engine is not running.
. Do not use the seat heater for
extended periods or when no one
is using the seat.
. Do not put anything on the seat
which insulates heat, such as a
blanket, cushion, seat cover, etc.
Otherwise, the seat may become
overheated.
. Do not place anything hard or
heavy on the seat or pierce it with
a pin or similar object. This may
result in damage to the heater.

(GAWR front and rear). The GVWR and
GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.
M.S.S. certification label (located on the
driver’s door pillar). For additional infor-
mation regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer
to “Vehicle loading information” (P.10-15).
WARNING
.Always install the cross bars onto
the roof side rails before loading
cargo of any kind. Loading cargo
directly onto the roof side rails or
the vehicle’s roof may cause ve-
hicle damage.
. Drive extra carefully when the
vehicle is loaded at or near the
cargo carrying capacity, espe-
cially if the significant portion of
that load is carried on the roof
rack.
. Heavy loading of the roof rack
has the potential to affect the
vehicle stability and handling
during sudden or unusual hand-
ling maneuvers.
. Roof rack load should be evenly
distributed.
. Do not exceed maximum roof
rack load weight capacity. .
Properly secure all cargo with
ropes or straps to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. In a sud-
den stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal in-
jury.
The sound with a feeling of oppression
may occur with the rear windows open
and front windows close. To reduce the
sound, slightly open either a front window
or the moonroof (if so equipped).
POWER WINDOWS
WARNING
The driver is always responsible for
all the power window operation in-
cluding passenger’s operation. Be
sure to observe the following warn-
ings for safety.
.Never allow anyone to extend any
portion of their body or objects
out of the opening while the
vehicle is in motion. Otherwise
they may be seriously damaged
by coming into contact with ob-
jects outside the vehicle or when
abruptly braking.
. Make sure that all passengers
have their hands, etc. inside the
vehicle before operating the
power windows. Do not intention-
ally activate the auto-reverse
function. If their hands or faces
are caught in the windows, it
could cause serious injury.
