GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Note:
When DSC is on and you attempt
to free the vehicle when it is stuck, or
drive it out of freshly fallen snow, the
TCS (part of the DSC system) will
activate. Depressing the accelerator
will not increase engine power and
freeing the vehicle may be difficult.
When this happens, turn off the
TCS/DSC.
If the TCS/DSC is off when the
engine is turned off, it automatically
activates when the ignition is placed in
the ON mode.
If the switch is pressed and held for
10 seconds or more, the switch
malfunction detection function
operates and the DSC system
activates automatically. The indicator
light turns off while the DSC system is
operative.
Warning!
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) cannot
prevent the natural laws of physics from
acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase
the traction afforded by prevailing road
conditions. DSC cannot prevent accidents,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, driving on very slippery
surfaces, or hydroplaning. DSC also
cannot prevent accidents resulting from
loss of vehicle control due to inappropriate
driver input for the conditions. Only a safe,
attentive, and skillful driver can prevent
accidents. The capabilities of an DSC
equipped vehicle must never be exploited
in a reckless or dangerous manner which
could jeopardize the user’s safety or the
safety of others.
Vehicle modifications, or failure to
properly maintain your vehicle, may change
the handling characteristics of your vehicle,
and may negatively affect the performance
of the DSC system. Changes to the
steering system, suspension, braking
system, tire type and size or wheel size
may adversely affect DSC performance.
Improperly inflated and unevenly worn tires
may also degrade DSC performance. Any
vehicle modification or poor vehicle
maintenance that reduces the effectiveness
of the DSC system can increase the risk of
loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover,
personal injury and death.
AUXILIARY DRIVING
SYSTEMS
Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) System
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
system is designed to assist the driver
in checking the area to the rear of the
vehicle on both sides during lane
changes by alerting the driver to the
presence of vehicles approaching from
the rear in an adjacent lane.
The system detects vehicles
approaching from the rear while
traveling in the forward direction at a
speed of 18 mph (30 km/h) or faster
and turns on the warning lights
equipped on the door mirrors
depending on the conditions.
If the turn signal lever is operated to
signal a lane change in the direction in
which the warning light is illuminated,
the system warns the driver of a vehicle
in the detection area by flashing the
warning light and activating a beep
sound.

Traffic Alert function when the gear
selector is shifted to the REVERSE (R)
position.
BSM Warning Lights
The BSM warning lights are equipped
on the left and right door mirrors.
The warning lights turn on when a
vehicle approaching from the rear in an
adjacent lane is detected. When the ignition is switched ON, the
malfunction warning light turns on
momentarily and then turns off after a
few seconds.
Forward Driving (BSM System
Operation)
The BSM system detects vehicles
approaching from the rear and turns on
the warning lights equipped on the door
mirrors according to the conditions.
Additionally, while a warning light is
illuminated, if the turn signal lever is
operated to signal a turn in the direction
in which the warning light is illuminated,
the warning light flashes.

TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System)
Tire Pressure Monitoring System —
Lo/Hi Grade
The TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring
System) monitors the air pressure of all
four tires.
If the air pressure of one or more tires is
too low, the system warns the driver by
indicating the
warning light in the
instrument cluster and operating a
beep.
The system monitors the tire pressures
indirectly using the data sent from the
ABS wheel speed sensors.
To allow the system to operate
correctly, the system needs to be
initialized with the specified tire pressure
(value on the tire placard label). Follow
the procedure and perform the
initialization (refer to “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Initialization”
paragraph).
The
warning light flashes when the
system has a malfunction.
Because this system detects slight
changes in tire conditions, the timing of
the warning may be faster or slower in
the following cases:

STARTING AND OPERATING

Contact an Authorized Dealer to check
the following:
Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in
the radiator.
Inspect the battery and its leads.
Cold reduces battery capacity.
Use an engine oil appropriate for the
lowest ambient temperatures that the
vehicle will be driven in.
Inspect the ignition system for
damage and loose connections.
Use winter windshield washer fluid
that will not freeze.
Note:
Remove snow before driving. Snow
left on the windshield is dangerous as
it could obstruct vision.
Drive slowly. Braking performance
can be adversely affected if snow or
ice adheres to the brake components.
If this situation occurs, drive the vehicle
slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal
and lightly applying the brakes several
times until the brake performance
returns to normal.

the temperature is 41 °F (5 °C) or less.
The material of the soft top could be
damaged by freezing.
Do not apply excessive force to a
window scraper when removing ice or
frozen snow on the mirror glass and
windshield. Never use warm or hot water for
removing snow or ice from windows
and mirrors as it could result in the
glass cracking.
Snow Tires
If your vehicle is equipped with the tire
pressure monitoring system (vehicle
with run-flat tires), the system may not
function correctly when using tires with
steel wire reinforcement in the
sidewalls.
Use Snow Tires on all Four Wheels
:
Do not exceed the maximum
permissible speed for your snow tires or
legal speed limits.
When snow tires are used, select the
specified size and pressure.
Tire Chains
Check local regulations before using tire
chains.
If your vehicle is equipped with the
TPMS system, the system may not
function correctly when using tire
chains.
Install the chains on the rear tires only.
Do not use chains on the front tires.
Note:
Chains may affect handling.
Do not go faster than 30 mph
(50 km/h) or the chain manufacturer's
recommended limit, whichever is lower.
Drive carefully and avoid bumps,
holes, and sharp turns.
Avoid locked-wheel braking.
Do not use chains on roads that are
free of snow or ice. The tires and
chains could be damaged.
