Listening To Audio With The Screen Closed
To listen to only audio portion of the channel with the
screen closed:
• Set the audio to the desired source and channel.
• Close the video screen.
• To change the current audio mode, press the remotecontrol’s MODE button. This will automatically se-
lect the next available audio mode without using the
MODE/SOURCE Select menu.
If the screen is closed and there is no audio heard,
verify that the headphones are turned on (the ON
indicator is illuminated) and the headphone selector
switch is on the desired channel. If the headphones are
turned on, press the remote control’s power button to
turn audio on. If audio is still not heard, check that fully
charged batteries are installed in the headphones.
Disc Formats
The DVD player is capable of playing the following
types of discs (12 cm or 8 cm diameter):
• DVD-Video discs (MPEG-2 video compression) (see notes about DVD Region Codes)
• Audio Compact Discs (CDs)
• CD Data discs with MP3 and WMA compressed audio format files
• Video CDs (MPEG-1 video compression) DVD Region Codes
The DVD player and many DVD discs are coded by
geographic region. These region codes must match in
order for the disc to play. If the region code for the
DVD disc does not match the region code for the
player, the disc will stop playing and a warning will be
displayed.
DVD Audio Support
When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in the DVD player,
the DVD-Audio title on the disc is played by default
(most DVD-Audio discs also have a Video title, but the
Video title is ignored). All multi-channel program ma-
terial is automatically mixed down to two channels,
which may result in a lowered apparent volume level.
If you increase the volume level to account for this
change in level, remember to lower the volume before
changing the disc or to another mode.
Recorded Discs
The DVD player will play CD-R and CD-RW discs
recorded in CD-Audio or Video-CD format, or as a
CD-ROM containing MP3 or WMA files. The player
will also play DVD-Video content recorded to a
DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD-ROM discs.
If you record a disc using a personal computer, there
may be cases where the DVD player may not be able to
play some or the entire disc, even if it is recorded in a

Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they
can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision.
Some of the worst injuries happen when people are
thrown from the vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possi-
bility of ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking
the inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle
should be belted at all times.
Lap/Shoulder Belts
All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with
a combination lap/shoulder belt.
The belt webbing retractor is designed to lock during
very sudden stops or impacts. This feature allows the
shoulder part of the belt to move freely with you under
normal conditions. However, in a collision, the belt will
lock and reduce your risk of striking the inside of the
vehicle or being thrown out.
WARNING!
• It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area,
inside or
outside of a vehicle. In a colli-
sion, people riding in these areas are more likely
to be seriously injured or killed.
• Donotallowpeopletorideinanyareaofyour
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat
belts.
(Continued)(Continued)
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a seat belt properly.
• Wearing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous.
Seat belts are designed to go around the large
bones of your body.These are the strongest parts
of your body and can take the forces of a collision
the best . Wearing your belt in the wrong place
could make your injuries in a collision much
worse. You might suffer internal injuries, or you
could even slide out of part of the belt . Follow
these instructions to wear your seat belt safely
and to keep your passengers safe, too.
• Two people should never be belted into a single
seat belt . People belted together can crash into
one another in a collision, hurting one another
badly. Never use a lap/shoulder belt or a lap belt
for more than one person, no matter what their
size.

WARNING!
• Abeltthatisbuckledintothewrong
buckle will
not protect you properly.The
lap portion could ride too high on your body,
possibly causing internal injuries. Always buckle
your belt into the buckle nearest you.
• Abeltthatistooloosewillnotprotectyou
properly. In a sudden stop you could move too far
forward, increasing the possibility of injury.Wear
your seat belt snugly.
• A belt that is worn under your arm is danger-
ous.Your body could strike the inside surfaces of
the vehicle in a collision, increasing head and
neck injury. A belt worn under the arm can cause
internal injuries. Ribs aren't as strong as shoulder
bones. Wear the belt over your shoulder so that
your strongest bones will take the force in a
collision.
• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not
protect you from injury during a collision.You are
more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do
not wear your shoulder belt .The lap and shoulder
belt are meant to be used together. 4. Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your
abdomen. To remove slack in the lap belt portion,
pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap
belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on
the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding
under the belt in a collision. (fig. 131)

• When your child restraint is not in use, secure
it in the vehicle with the seat belt or ISOFIX
anchorages, or remove it from the vehicle. Do not
leave it loose in the vehicle. In a sudden stop or
accident , it could strike the occupants or seat-
backs and cause serious personal injury.

Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN
mode. A child could operate power windows,
other controls, or move the vehicle.

vehicles in hot weather; interior heat buildup
may cause serious injury or death.
KEYLESS ENTER-N-GO™

RUN and START. To change the ignition switch posi-
tions without starting the vehicle and use the accesso-
ries follow these steps.

IF ENGINE FAILS TO START
WARNING!
• Never pour fuel or other flammable
liqui ds
into the throttle body air inlet
opening in an attempt to start the vehicle. This
could result in a flash fire causing serious per-
sonal injur y.
• Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to
get it started. Unburned fuel could enter the
catalytic converter and once the engine has
started, ignite and damage the converter and
vehicle. If the vehicle has a discharged battery,
booster cables may be used to obtain a start from
a booster battery or the battery in another ve-
hicle.This type of start can be dangerous if done
improperly. Refer to “Jump Starting” in “In An
Emergency” for further information.

determining the amount of engine idle time required to
sufficiently cool down the turbocharger before shut
down, depending upon the type of driving and the
amount of cargo.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION
(for versions/markets, where
provided)
WARNING!
You or others could be injured if you leave
the vehicle unattended without having
the parking brake fully applied.The parking brake
should always be applied when the driver is not in
the vehicle, especially on an incline.
Fully press the clutch pedal before you shift gears. As
you release the clutch pedal, lightly press the accelera-
tor pedal.
(fig. 153)
Use each gear in numerical order, do not skip a gear. Be
sure the transmission is in first gear, (not third), when
starting from a standing position. Damage to the clutch
can result from starting in third.
For most city driving you will find it easier to use only
the lower gears. For steady highway driving with light
accelerations, sixth gear is recommended.
Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal,
or try to hold the vehicle on a hill with the clutch pedal
partially engaged. This will cause abnormal wear on the
clutch.
To shift into REVERSE, pull up on the ring just below
the gear shift knob and then move into the REVERSE
(R) position.
Never shift into REVERSE until the vehicle has come to
a complete stop.
NOTE: During cold weather, until the transmission
lubricant is warm, you may experience slightly higher
shift efforts. This is normal and not harmful to the
transmission.
