SEATS
Manual Adjustment
Forward / Rearward
To move the seat forward or rearward,
pull the adjustment bar. Release the bar
once the desired position is reached.
Using body pressure, move forward
and rearward on the seat to be sure
that the seat adjusters have latched.
Height
To adjust the height for front edge of
the seat bottom, rotate the dial to the
desired position.Seat Recline
To recline the seatback, lift up the
recline lever, lean back until the desired
position has been reached, and release
the lever. Make sure the lever returns to
its original position and the seatback is
locked in place by attempting to push it
forward and rearward.
Warning!
Adjusting a seat while driving may be
dangerous. Moving a seat while driving
could result in loss of control which could
cause a collision and serious injury or
death.
Seats should be adjusted before
fastening the seat belts and while the
vehicle is parked. Serious injury or death
could result from a poorly adjusted seat
belt.
Do not ride with the seatback reclined
so that the shoulder belt is no longer
resting against your chest. In a collision
you could slide under the seat belt, which
could result in serious injury or death.
Heated Seats
On some models, the front driver and
passenger seats may be equipped with
heaters in both the seat cushions and
seatbacks. The controls for the front
heated seats are located on the center
instrument panel.
The heated seats have three settings;
High, Medium, and Low. Push the
switch once to turn the heated seats on
High, twice for Medium, and three times
for Low.
Note:
If the ignition is switched OFF while
the seat warmer is operating (High,
Mid or Low) and then switched ON
again, the seat warmer will
automatically operate at the
temperature set before switching off
the ignition.
Use the seat warmer when the
engine is running. Leaving the seat
warmer on for long periods with the
engine not running could discharge the
battery.
The temperature of the seat warmer
cannot be adjusted beyond High, Mid
and Low.

indicated by the arrow to hold the hood
open.Closing The Hood
Proceed as follows:
1. Check under the hood area to make
certain all filler caps are in place and all
loose items (e.g. tools, oil containers,
etc.) have been removed.
2. Lift the hood, grasp the padded area
on the support rod, and secure the
support rod in the prop rod clip. Verify
that the support rod is secured in the
clip before closing the hood.
3. Lower the hood slowly to a height of
about 8 inches (20 cm) above its closed
position and then let it drop.
Warning!
Be sure the hood is fully latched before
driving your vehicle. If the hood is not fully
latched, it could open when the vehicle is
in motion and block your vision. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious
injury or death.
Caution!
To prevent possible damage, do not slam
the hood to close it. Lower hood to
approximately 8 inches (20 cm) and drop
the hood to close. Make sure hood is fully
closed for both latches. Never drive vehicle

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Page 117 of 292
Driving on steep slopes.
Crossing the summit of a hill or
mountain pass.
The turning radius is small (making a
sharp turn, turning at intersections).
When there is a difference in the
height between your driving lane and
the adjacent lane.
Directly after pushing the BSM
switch and the system becomes
operable.
If the road width is extremely narrow,
vehicles two lanes over may be
detected. The detection area of the
radar sensors (rear) is set according to
the road width of expressways.
The BSM warning lights may turn on in
reaction to stationary objects on the
road or the roadside such as guardrails,
tunnels, sidewalls, and parked vehicles.
A BSM warning lights may flash or the
warning beep may be activated several
times when making a turn at a city
intersection.
Turn off the BSM system while pulling a
trailer or while an accessory such as a
bicycle carrier is installed to the rear of
the vehicle. Otherwise, the radar’s
sound system waves will be blocked
causing the system to not operate
normally. In the following cases, it may be difficult
to view the illumination/flashing of the
BSM warning lights equipped on the
door mirrors:
Snow or ice is adhering to the door
mirrors.
The door glass is fogged or covered
in snow, frost or dirt.
The system switches to the Rear Cross
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.
Reverse Driving (RCTA System
Operation)
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
system detects vehicles approaching
from the left and right of your vehicle
and flashes the BSM warning lights.
Function For Cancelling Illumination
Dimmer
When the headlight switch is in the
orposition, the brightness of
the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
warning lights is dimmed. If the Blind
Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning lights
are difficult to see due to glare from
surrounding brightness when traveling
on snow-covered roads or under foggy
conditions, push the dimmer
cancellation button to cancel the

Caution!
If the rear bumper receives a severe
impact, the system may no longer operate
normally. Stop the system immediately and
contact an authorized dealer.
The detection ability of the radar
sensors has limitations. In the following
cases, the detection ability may lower
and the system may not operate
normally:
The rear bumper near the radar
sensors has become deformed.
Snow, ice or mud adheres to the
radar sensors on the rear bumper.
Under bad weather conditions such
as rain, snow and fog.
Note: Under the following conditions,
the radar sensors cannot detect target
objects or it may be difficult to detect
them:
Stationary objects on a road or a
road side such as small, two-wheeled
vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians,
animals, and shopping carts.
Vehicle shapes which do not reflect
radar waves well such as empty trailers
with a low vehicle height and sports
cars. Vehicles are shipped with the direction
of the radar sensors adjusted for each
vehicle to a loaded vehicle condition so
that the radar sensors detect
approaching vehicles correctly. If the
direction of the radar sensors has
changed, contact an authorized dealer.
The radar sensors are regulated by the
relevant radio wave laws of the country
in which the vehicle is driven. If the
vehicle is driven abroad, authorization
from the country in which the vehicle is
driven may be required.
Note:
For repairs or replacement of the
radar sensors, bumper repairs, paint
work, or replacement near the radar
sensors, consult an authorized dealer.
Turn off the system while pulling a
trailer or while an accessory such as a
bicycle carrier is installed to the rear of
the vehicle. Otherwise, the radio waves
emitted by the radar will be blocked
causing the system to not operate
normally.
REAR PARK ASSIST
— IF EQUIPPED
Rear Park Assist
Warning!
Do not rely completely on the parking
sensor system and be sure to confirm the
safety around your vehicle visually when
driving. This system can assist the driver in
operating the vehicle in the forward and
backward directions while parking. The
detection ranges of the sensors are limited,
therefore, driving the vehicle while relying
only on the system may cause an accident.
Always confirm the safety around your
vehicle visually when driving.
Parking and other potentially dangerous
manoeuvres are, however, always the
driver’s responsibility. When performing
these operations, always make sure that
there are no other people (especially
children) or animals on the route you want
to drive into. The parking sensors are an
aid for the driver, but the driver must never
allow their attention to lapse during
potentially dangerous manoeuvres, even
those executed at low speeds.
The rear park assist system uses four
ultrasonic sensors (two rear sensors
and two rear corner sensors) to detect
obstructions around the vehicle while
parking the vehicle in a garage or
during parallel parking when the gear
selector is in REVERSE (R).
