IMPORTANT OPERATION
TIPS FOR THE AIR
CONDITIONING
Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking in the hot sun will make the
vehicle inside extremely hot, and it will
require more time to cool the interior. If
it is necessary to park in the sun, open
the windows for the first few minutes of
air conditioning operation to expel the
hot air.
Close the windows when the air
conditioning is in use. The entry of
outside air through open windows will

67
reduce the cooling efficiency.

NOTE The demister switch is not to
melt snow but to clear mist. Remove
snow before use of the demister switch.
NOTE To avoid unnecessary discharge
of the battery, do not use the rear
window demister during starting of the
engine or when the engine is not
running. Turn the demister off
immediately after the window is clear.
NOTE When cleaning the inside of the
rear window, use a soft cloth and wipe
gently along the heater wires, being
careful not to damage the wires.
NOTE Do not allow objects to touch
the inside of the rear window glass,
damaged or broken wires may result.
Customizing the automatic rear
window demister (for vehicles
equipped with the rear window
demister switch - Automatic type)
Function can be changed as desired,
as stated below.
Enable automatic rear window
demister — If the outside air
temperature drops below approx. 3 °C
(37 °F), the rear window demister
operates once automatically after the
engine starts. The heated mirrors will
also operate once automatically at the
same time.
Disable automatic rear window
demister — The rear window demister
does not operate automatically. The
heated mirrors will not operate
automatically as well.
Setting change method — Hold
down the rear window demister switch
for about 10 seconds or more. When
the setting is changed from enable to
disable 3 sounds are emitted and the
indicator lamp flashes 3 times. When
the setting is changed from disable to
enable 2 sounds are emitted and the
indicator lamp flashes 3 times.
NOTE The factory setting is “Disable
automatic rear window demister”.
WARNING
67)For safety, make sure you have a clear
view through all windows.
68)Use of the recirculation position for an
extended time may cause the windows to
fog up.
IMPORTANT
22)The engine speed may increase when
the air conditioning is operating. With an
increased engine speed, an A/T vehicle will
creep to a greater degree than with a lower
engine speed. Fully depress the brake
pedal to prevent the vehicle from creeping.
23)When using the air conditioning, the
idling speed may slightly increase as the air
conditioning compressor is switched on/off
automatically. While the vehicle with an
automatic transmission is stationary, fully
depress the brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from creeping.24)When using the mode selection dial
between the
andpositions, prevent
fogging by moving the air selection lever to
select outside air (refer to “Air selection
lever”).
25)Use of the
(recirculation) position
for extended time may cause the windows
to fog up.
26)If the outside air is dusty or otherwise
contaminated, or if high cooling
performance is desired, set air selection
lever to the
(recirculation) position
and the temperature control dial all the way
to the right. Switch to the
(outside)
position periodically to increase ventilation
so that the windows do not become
fogged up.
IMPORTANT
2)The system uses a coolant that is
compatible with the laws in force in the
countries where the vehicle is sold, R134a
(indicated on a specific plate in the engine
compartment). The use of other coolants
affects the efficiency and condition of the
system. Also the compressor coolants
used must be compatible with the
indicated coolant.

STARTING AND DRIVING

104)In the following cases, the engine will
restart automatically even if the engine was
stopped by the Start&Stop system. Pay
careful attention, otherwise an unexpected
accident might occur when the engine
restarts: vehicle speed is 3 km/h or higher
when coasting down a slope; brake
booster vacuum pressure is low because
the brake pedal is depressed repeatedly or
depressed harder than usual; engine
coolant temperature is low; when the air
conditioner is operated by pressing the air
conditioning switch; when the preset
temperature of the air conditioner is
changed significantly; when the air
conditioner is operated in AUTO mode
where the temperature control is set to the
max. hot or the max. cool (for vehicles with

difficult until the transmission lubricant
has warmed up. This is normal and not
harmful to the transmission.
If it is hard to shift into 1st, depress the
clutch pedal again; the shift will then be
easier to make.
In case of hot weather condition or long
time cruising with high speed, a speed
limitation function may work to restrict
the oil temperature rising of the manual
transmission. After the oil temperature
drops to the appropriate level, the
speed limitation function is cancelled.
The gearshift indicator shows
recommended gearshift points for
fuel-efficient driving. It shows a
