The Intelligent Key transmits radio waves
when the buttons are pushed. The FAA
advises that the radio waves may affect
aircraft navigation and communication sys-
tems. Do not operate the Intelligent Key
while on an airplane. Make sure the buttons
are not operated unintentionally when the
unit is stored during a flight.
It is possible to lock/unlock all doors and
fuel-filler door, open the trunk lid, activate
the panic alarm and open the windows by

The remote keyless entry function can
operate at a distance of approximately 33
ft (10 m) from the vehicle. (The effective
distance depends upon the conditions
around the vehicle.)
As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be used
with one vehicle. For information concern-

If the lever cannot be moved out of P

automatic transmission system as soon as
possible.
Adaptive Shift Control (ASC)
The adaptive shift control system automa-
tically operates when the transmission is
in the D (Drive) position and selects an
appropriate gear depending on the road
conditions such as uphill, downhill or
curving roads.
Control on uphill and curving roads:
A low gear is maintained that suits the
degree of the slope or curve to allow
smooth driving with a small number of
shifts.
Control on downhill roads:
The adaptive shift control system shifts to
a low gear that suits the degree of the
slope, and uses the engine braking to
reduce the number of times that the brake must be used.
Control on winding roads:
A low gear is maintained on continuous
curves that involve repeated acceleration
and deceleration, so that smooth accelera-
tion is available instantly when the accel-
erator pedal is depressed.
NOTE:
. Adaptive shift control may not operate
when the transmission oil temperature
is low immediately after the start of
driving or when it is very hot.
. During some driving situations, hard
braking for example, the adaptive shift
control may automatically operate. The
transmission may automatically shift
to a lower gear for engine braking. This
increases engine speed but not vehicle
speed. Vehicle speed is controlled by
the accelerator pedal when the vehicle
is in the Adaptive shift control mode.
. When the adaptive shift control oper-
ates, the transmission sometimes
maintains a lower gear for a longer
period of time than when adaptive shift
control is not operating. Engine speed
will be higher for a specific vehicle
speed while ASC system is operating than when ASC is not operating.
NAVI Shift Control (if so equipped)
NAVI Shift Control automatically adjusts
the Automatic Transmission (AT) gear posi-
tion in certain situations based on road
information from the navigation system.
When the navigation system detects that
the vehicle is approaching a curved road,
NAVI Shift Control will adjust the gear
position if needed to help the driver run
through the curve smoothly.
Precaution on NAVI shift control:
.
The NAVI Shift Control does not provide
steering input or automated driving on
a curve. It is not a speed limit support
system and will not modify your speed
according to local speed limits.
. The NAVI Shift Control is a convenient
system intended to help the vehicle
move through a curve smoothly. How-
ever, the driver must always drive
safely and use the brake pedal if
needed.
. The NAVI Shift Control may be delayed
or not operate properly in the following
situations, because this function uses
the road information provided by the
navigation system.
Starting and driving5-19

5-20Starting and driving
—When the navigation system cannot
accurately detect the location of the
vehicle.
— When the vehicle is driving on a
roadway that is not recognized by
the navigation system.
— When the actual roadway differs
from the map information on the
navigation system due to road con-
struction, traffic lane obstructions,
etc.
. The NAVI Shift Control may not operate
properly in the following situations:
— If the vehicle’s transmission, engine,
and/or navigation system, and/or
GPS is malfunctioning.
— If the vehicle speed is higher than
74 MPH (120 km/h) or lower than
19 MPH (30 km/h) and/or transmis-
sion gear is outside the operating
range of the system.
— When the vehicle is driving on a
freeway.
— When the vehicle is driving on a
gentle curve
— When the vehicle is driving with the
shift lever except in the D (Drive)
position.

How to enable/disable the NAVI Shift
Control:
Perform the following steps to enable or
disable the NAVI shift control.
1. Push the MENU button
*1and touch
[Settings] on the lower display.
2. Touch [Drive Mode Enhancement Set- tings].
3. Touch [Navi Shift Control] and select the ON (enabled) or OFF (disabled).
WARNING
. Be sure the parking brake is fully
released before driving. Failure to do so
can cause brake failure and lead to an
accident.
. Do not release the parking brake from
outside the vehicle.
. Do not use the gear shift in place of the
parking brake. When parking, be sure
the parking brake is fully engaged.
. Do not leave children unattended in a
vehicle. They could release the parking
brake and cause an accident.
PARKING BRAKE

5-100Starting and driving
6. Plan for the shortest route..Utilize a map or navigation system todetermine the best route to save
time.
7. Avoid idling.
.Shutting off your engine when safe for stops exceeding 30-60 seconds
saves fuel and reduces emissions.
8. Buy an automated pass for toll roads.
.Automated passes permit drivers to use special lanes to maintain cruis-
ing speed through the toll and avoid
stopping and starting.
9. Winter warm up.
.Limit idling time to minimize impact to fuel economy.
.Vehicles typically need no more than30 seconds of idling at start-up to
effectively circulate the engine oil
before driving.
.Your vehicle will reach its ideal
operating temperature more quickly
while driving versus idling.
10. Keeping your vehicle cool.
.Park your vehicle in a covered
parking area or in the shade when-
ever possible.
.When entering a hot vehicle, open- ing the windows will help to reduce
the inside temperature faster, result-
ing in reduced demand on your A/C
system. .
Keep your engine tuned up.
. Follow the recommended scheduled
maintenance.
. Keep the tires inflated to the correct
pressure. Low tire pressure increases
tire wear and lowers fuel economy.
. Keep the wheels in correct alignment.
Improper alignment increases tire wear
and lowers fuel economy.
. Use the recommended viscosity engine
oil. (See “Engine oil and oil filter
recommendation” (P.9-6).)
