CAUTION
.The glass screen on the liquid crystal
display may break if it is hit with a hard
or sharp object. If the glass screen
breaks, do not touch it. Doing so could result in an injury.
. To clean the display, use a soft, dry
cloth. If additional cleaning is necessary,
use a small amount of neutral detergent
with a soft cloth. Never use a rough
cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner or any
kind of solvent or paper towel with a
chemical cleaning agent. They will
scratch or deteriorate the panel.
. Do not splash any liquid such as water
or car fragrance on the display. Contact
with liquid will cause the system to
malfunction.
To ensure safe driving, some functions
cannot be operated while driving.
The on-screen functions that are not
available while driving will be “grayed
out” or muted.
Park the vehicle in a safe location and then
operate the navigation system.
WARNING
. ALWAYS give your full attention to
driving.
. Avoid using vehicle features that could distract you. If distracted, you could lose
control of your vehicle and cause an
accident.

WARNING
. The air conditioner cooling function
operates only when the engine is run-
ning.
. Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets should
not be left alone either. On hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed vehicle
could quickly become high enough to
cause severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.
Start the engine and operate the automatic
climate control system.
When the “STATUS”button is pushed, the
automatic climate control status screen
will appear. (See “How to use STATUS
button” earlier in this section.)
