the lock switch when children are riding in the
vehicle. Failure to follow this procedure could
result in injury to a child operating the power
window. Refer to the “Power windows” section
in chapter 2.yNever leave unattended children in the vehi-
cle. They could accidentally injure themselves
or others through inadvertent operation of the
vehicle. Also, on hot or sunny days, tempera-
ture in a closed vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or possibly fatal
injuries to them. y Help prevent young children from locking
themselves in the trunk. When leaving the vehi-
cle, either close all windows and lock all doors
or cancel the inside trunk lid release. Also make
certain that the trunk is closed. On hot or sunny
days, the temperature in a trunk could quickly
become high enough to cause death or serious
heat-related injuries including brain damage,
particularly for small children.
Carefully read the sections “Child restraint sys-
tems”,“*SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System
airbag)”, and “Seatbelts” in chapter 1 of this owner’s
manual for instructions and precautions concerning
the child restraint system, seatbelt system and SRS airbag system. „
Engine exhaust gas (carbon monox- ide)
yNever inhale engine exhaust gas. Engine ex-
haust gas contains carbon monoxide, a color-
less and odorless gas which is dangerous, or
even lethal, if inhaled. y Always properly maintain the engine exhaust
system to prevent engine exhaust gas from en-
tering the vehicle. y Never run the engine in a closed space, such
as a garage, except for the brief time needed to
drive the vehicle in or out of it. y Avoid remaining in a parked vehicle for a
lengthy time while the engine is running. If that
is unavoidable, then use the ventilation fan to
force fresh air into the vehicle. y Always keep the front ventilator inlet grille
free from snow, leaves or other obstructions to
ensure that the ventilation system always
works properly. y If at any time you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, have the problem

checked and corrected as soon as possible. If
you must drive under these conditions, drive
only with all windows fully open. yKeep the trunk lid or rear gate closed while
driving to prevent exhaust gas from entering
the vehicle.
„ Drinking and driving
Drinking and then driving is very dangerous.
Alcohol in the bloodstream delays your reac-
tion and impairs your perception, judgment and
attentiveness. If you drive after drinking – even
if you drink just a little – it will increase the risk
of being involved in a serious or fatal accident,
injuring or killing yourself, your passengers
and others. In addition, if you are injured in the
accident, alcohol may increase the severity of
that injury.
Please don’t drink and drive.
Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes of
accidents. Since alcohol affects all people differently, you may have consumed too much alcohol to drive
safely even if the level of alcohol in your blood is below
the legal limit. The safest thing you can do is never
drink and drive. However if you have no choice but to
drive, stop drinking and sober up completely before
getting behind the wheel. „
Drugs and driving
There are some drugs (over the counter and
prescription) that can delay your reaction time
and impair your perception, judgment and at-
tentiveness. If you drive after taking them, it
may increase your, your passengers’ and other
persons’ risk of being involved in a serious or
fatal accident.
If you are taking any drugs, check with your doctor or
pharmacist or read the literature that accompanies the
medication to determine if the drug you are taking can
impair your driving ability. Do not drive after taking any
medications that can make you drowsy or otherwise
affect your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. If
you have a medical condition that requires you to take

Three types of keys are provided for your vehicle.
Master key, submaster key and valet key.
The master key and submaster key fit all locks on your
vehicle. y Ignition switch
y Doors
y Trunk (sedan) or Rear gate (station wagon) y
Glove box
The valet key fits only the ignition switch and door locks. You can keep the trunk and glove box locked
when you leave your vehicle and valet key at a parking facility.
NOTE
If the key is attached to a keyholder or to a large
bunch of other keys, centrifugal force may act on
it as the vehicle moves, resulting in unwanted
turning of the ignition switch. Also, if a large key-
holder is attached to the key, your knees or hands
may accidentally touch it in a way that turns the ig-
nition switch. „ Key number
The key number is stamped on the metal plate at-
tached to the key set. Write down the key number and
keep it in another safe place, not in the vehicle. This
number is needed to make a replacement key if you
lose your key or lock it inside the vehicle.

Security system (if equipped)
The security system helps to protect your vehicle and
valuables from theft. The horn sounds and the turn
signal lights flash if someone attempts to break into
your vehicle. The starter motor is also interrupted to
prevent starting the vehicle without a key.
The system can be armed and disarmed with the re-
mote transmitter.
The system does not operate when the key is inserted
into the ignition switch. „System operation
The security system will give the following alarm indi-
cations when triggered: y The turn signal lights will flash and the horn will
sound intermittently. In addition, the starter motor will
not operate. y The alarm automatically resets after 30 seconds;
however, the alarm will reactivate if the vehicle is tam-
pered with again. The alarm will continue for six times
if any sensor continues to be activated.
The alarm is triggered by: y Opening a door, the rear gate or trunk lid.
y Application of physical shock to the vehicle (e.g. breaking glass or forced entry). Note that there are two
alarm levels for shock: warning and alarm. In warning
mode, the alarm detects lower level vibrations and
triggers 2 warning chirps on the horn and two flashes
on the lights as a deterrent to would be vandals. In
alarm mode, higher levels of shock are detected and
the system will go into full alarm. y
Ignition switch being turned on while in armed state.
NOTE
With the valet mode selected, the security system
does not operate and the parking lights do not
flash when the remote transmitter is used for lock-
ing and unlocking.
The security system indicator light in the combi-
nation meter flashes twice per second to show
that the valet mode is selected.
For details, refer to “Valet mode” in this section. „ Arming the system

2. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Open the doors and get out of the vehicle.

Tripped sensor identification
If an electronic chirp sounds four times and the turn
signal lights flash four times when you disarm the sys-
tem, this indicates that the alarm was triggered. The
number of times the indicator light flashes indicates
what sensor caused the alarm condition.
To enter identification mode:
1. Open the driver’s door and leave it open.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position two times. (“LOCK” “ON” “LOCK” “ON”
“LOCK”)
3. The indicator light will start flashing.
The indicator light provides the following indications.
Flashing one time: Any door, the rear gate or the
trunk lid has been opened.
Flashing three times: The impact sensor in the sys-
tem’s unit has been activated. This may indicate that
your vehicle has been shocked or tampered with by
some outside force and/or unauthorized person.
Flashing four times: The ignition switch has been
turned on or the battery has been disconnected.
NOTE
The battery must be reconnected before the indi-
cator light will flash.
