RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the vehicle unless a
separate aerial is mounted externally.
Transmission and reception of these devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle body. As far as the use of
EC-approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS, LTE), follow the usage instructions provided by the mobile
phone Manufacturer.
The use of these devices inside the vehicle (without an external aerial) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction. This
could compromise the vehicle safety in addition to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health.
If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/tablets are inside the vehicle and/or close to the electronic key, a reduced performance
of the Advanced Keyless Entry System may occur.
CELL PHONE WARNING
Note: Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of communication equipment in vehicles in your country.
Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices by the driver
while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. Dialing a number on a cell phone while driving also ties-up the driver's hands. Use of
these devices will cause the driver to be distracted and could lead to a serious accident. If a passenger is unable to use the
device, pull off the right-of-way to a safe area before use. If use of a cell phone is necessary despite this warning, use a
hands-free system to at least leave the hands free to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell phone or other electrical devices while
the vehicle is moving and, instead, concentrate on the full-time job of driving.

As an added safety feature, your vehicle
has been equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS) that
illuminates a low tire pressure telltale
when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly,
when the low tire pressure telltale
illuminates, you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle's handling
and stopping ability. Please note that
the TPMS is not a substitute for proper
tire maintenance, and it is the driver's
responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination
of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not
operating properly. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will
flash for approximately one minute and
then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction telltale after replacing one
or more tires or wheels on your vehicle
to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function properly.
System Error Activation
When the
warning light flashes,
there may be a system malfunction.
Contact your authorized dealer.
A system error activation may occur in
the following cases:
When there is equipment or a device
near the vehicle using the same radio
frequency as that of the tire pressure
sensors.
When a metallic device such as a
non-genuine navigation system is
equipped near the center of the
dashboard, which may block radio
signals from the tire pressure sensor to
the receiver unit.
When using the following devices in
the vehicle that may cause radio
interference with the receiver unit.
A digital device such as a personal
computer.
A current converter device such as a
DC-AC converter. When excess snow or ice adheres to
the vehicle, especially around the
wheels.
When the tire pressure sensor
batteries are discharged.
When using a wheel with no tire
pressure sensor installed.
When using tires with steel wire
reinforcement in the side walls.
When using tire chains.
Tires And Wheels
Note: When inspecting or adjusting the
tire air pressures, do not apply
excessive force to the stem portion of
the wheel unit. The stem portion could
be damaged.
Changing Tires And Wheels
The following procedure allows the
TPMS to recognize a tire pressure
sensor's unique ID signal code
whenever tires or wheels are changed,
such as changing to and from winter
tires.
Note:
Each tire pressure sensor has a
unique ID signal code. The signal code
must be registered with the TPMS
before it can work. The easiest way to
do it is to have your authorized dealer
change your tire and complete ID
signal code registration.
