Driving and Operating 201
Stage 1 :When incorrect DEF or an
SCR system malfunction (Type A) is
detected, the warning and indicator
lights will come on as shown in the
table and engine power will be
reduced so the vehicle speed will
not exceed 89 km/h (55 MPH).
Stage 2 : If driving is continued for
another approximately
160 km (100 miles), the warning and
indicator lights will begin blinking.
Again, engine power will be reduced
so the vehicle speed will not exceed
56 km/h (35 MPH).
Stage 3 : If driving is continued for
approximately
105 more km (65 miles), the warning
and indicator lights will begin to
blink faster. Engine power will still
be reduced so the vehicle speed will
not exceed 56 km/h (35 MPH). The
vehicle speed will be limited to
8 km/h (5 MPH) either when the
vehicle is stopped after driving
further on (approximately
8 km (5 miles)) or when the engine
is restarted. Stage 4 :
DEF indicator light is
blinking quickly, the other warning
lights are on and the buzzer is
beeping continuously indicates the
vehicle speed is limited to 8 km/h (5
MPH). See Vehicle Messages

204 Driving and Operating
When the exhaust system warning
light comes on, promptly have the
vehicle inspected and serviced at a
dealer.
When a malfunction is detected in
the SCR system, the warning and
the indicator lights shown in the
table come on. SeeVehicle
Messages (Diesel Only) 097,
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (Check
Engine Light) 084, and Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Warning Light
0 90.
When the Diesel Exhaust Fluid
(DEF) Tank is Empty
If the DEF tank is empty and
warning and indicator lights are on,
you must follow below procedure to
cancel the vehicle restriction: 1. Turn the engine control switch to the LOCK or ACC position,
and add DEF.
2. After adding DEF, turn the engine control switch to ON
position.
3. Wait until buzzer stops, warnings and indicators are
turned off. 4. If the buzzer does not stop,
return the engine control switch
back to the LOCK position and
add more DEF, and then start
over from step 2 above.
5. Restart the engine.
It may take a while until the warning
lights and indicators turn off and the
buzzer stops after turning the
engine control switch to the ON
position.
It is desirable to fill up the tank with
DEF to avoid DEF remaining level
warning indication from reappearing.
When the outside temperature is
low, refer to Adding DEF in Cold
Weather. See Driver Information
Center (DIC) (Diesel Only) 093,
Brake System Warning Light
(Parking Brake Light) 084, Warning
Buzzers 0101, and Winter Driving
0 145.Automatic
Transmission
On an automatic transmission
vehicle, the driver does not use a
clutch pedal when pulling away,
changing gears, or stopping. Only
the selector lever, accelerator pedal,
and brake pedal are used.
Practice learning the characteristics
of the automatic transmission
vehicle and how to correctly operate
it. When the vehicle is stationary,
remember to keep the brake pedal
firmly pressed, and if necessary,
move the selector lever in the P or
N position and apply the parking
brake.
Creep : With the engine running
and a gear position other than P or
N selected with the selector lever,
power reaches the wheels even
when the accelerator pedal is not
pressed, causing the vehicle to tend
to move.
Furthermore, the higher the engine
speed, the stronger the creep and
the greater the vehicle's tendency
to move.

Headlamps and Front
Turn Signal
Replacing the Headlamps
When the bulb has blown out,
replace it with a bulb of the
specified wattage. Be careful not to
excessively tighten the mounting
screws when replacing the
headlamp bulbs.
Do not replace a bulb with other
than the specified wattage.
Proper aiming of the headlamps is
important to ensure sufficient
illumination of the highway without
blinding other motorists. When
replacing headlamp bulbs, have the
headlamp aim adjusted at your
dealer.
When replacing a bulb, make sure
the light switch is“OFF”.
See Bulb Replacement 0288.
1. Remove the front grille (3).
Remove the screw (4) from the
center of the grille. Push up on
the tabs of the five clips (1) on
the upper side of the grille and
pull the grille toward you to

Electrical System
Electrical System
Overload
Electrical System
Following the after-delivery service,
it is the owner's responsibility to
check all wiring periodically for
cracked, chafed or oil-soaked
insulation and maintain it in a clean
and tight condition to ensure
satisfactory operation of the
electrical system.
Replacing the Fuses and Relays
Your vehicle is equipped with fuses
and fusible links to protect your
electrical wiring and equipment in
case of electrical overload.
When the lights do not come on or
flash, or the equipment in the
electrical system does not operate,
check to see if a fuse has blown.
Fuses : In case of an electrical
overload, the fuse will blow and stop
the flow of current in the circuit
before electrical components
become damaged. The cause of the circuit overload
must be identified and corrected
before the blown fuse is replaced,
or else the new fuse will also blow.
Since different circuits handle
different amounts of current, fuses
of various ampere ratings are used.
Be sure to replace a blown fuse with
a fuse of the correct rating.
To know if a fuse is blown or not,
remove the suspected fuse and look
at the wire for a break. If the wire is
broken, replace the fuse with one of
equal amperage rating.
The amperage rating of each fuse is
molded in its head.
Fuses are installed in the fuse
panel.

When Slow-blow Fuses Blow Out
Slow-blow fuses protect the
electrical circuits, and they are
installed so that they can be quickly
replaced if there is a malfunction.
If an overload exists in the circuit
from the battery, the slow-blow fuse
will blow out before the wiring
harness is damaged to protect the
electrical circuitry. Inspection
When the headlights and other
devices in the electrical system do
not work, but there is no problem
with the fuses, check the
slow-blow fuse.
The slow-blow fuse is blown if it
looks like the illustration.
Immediately contact the nearest
dealer.
