*: The needle indicators may move slightly
after the ignition switch is placed in the
OFF position. This is not a malfunction.
CAUTION
. For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dam-
pened with water. 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 cause discoloration to the
lens.
. Do not spray any liquid such as water
on the meter lens. Spraying liquid
may cause the system to malfunction.
METERS AND GAUGES

2-8Instruments and controls
JVI0638X
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM).Do not rev
the engine into the red zone
.
The scale length and the red zone vary with
the engine model.
CAUTION
When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear or reduce
engine speed. Operating the engine in
the red zone may cause serious engine
damage.
JVI0639X
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERA-
TURE GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature.
The engine coolant temperature is within the
normal range when the gauge needle points
within the zone
shown in the illustration.
The engine coolant temperature varies with
the outside air temperature and driving
conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature is near the hot (H) end of
the normal range, reduce vehicle speed
to decrease the temperature. If the
gauge is over the normal range, stop
the vehicle as soon as safely possible and
let the engine idle. If the engine is
overheated, continued operation of the
vehicle may seriously damage the engine.
See “If your vehicle overheats” (P.6-16)
for immediate action required.

.Be sure to turn off the rain-sensing auto
wiper system when you use a car wash.
. Using genuine wiper blades is recom-
mended for proper operation of the
rain-sensing auto wiper system. (See
“Windshield wiper blades” (P.8-22) for
wiper blade replacement.)
JVI1441X
To defog/defrost the rear window glass and
outside mirrors, start the engine and push
the switch
on. The indicator lightwill
come on. Push the switch again to turn the
defroster off.
It will automatically turn off in approxi-
mately 15 minutes.
If the engine is started using the remote start
function (if so equipped) when the outside
air temperature, the interior temperature
and the engine coolant temperature are
low, the rear window glass and outside
mirror defroster may turn on automatically.
For additional information about the remote
engine start function, see “Remote engine
start” (P.3-20).
CAUTION
When cleaning the inner side of the rear
window, be careful not to scratch or
damage the rear window defroster.

Other conditions can affect the performance
of the Intelligent Key transmitter. See “In-
telligent Key system” (P.3-7) for additional
information.
REMOTE ENGINE START OPER-
ATING RANGE
The remote engine start function can only be
used when the Intelligent Key is within the
specified operating range from the vehicle.
When the Intelligent Key battery is dis-
charged or other strong radio wave sources
are present near the operating location, the
Intelligent Key operating range becomes
narrower, and the Intelligent Key may not
function properly.
The remote engine start operating range is
approximately 197 ft (60 m) from the
vehicle.
REMOTE STARTING THE ENGINE
To use the remote start function to start the
engine, perform the following:
1. Aim the Intelligent Key at the vehicle.
2. Push the LOCK
button to lock all
doors.
3. Within 5 seconds push and hold the remote engine start
button until
the turn signal lights flash and the tail lights illuminate. If the vehicle is not
within view, push and hold the remote
engine start
button for at least 2
seconds.
The following events will occur when the
engine starts:
. The front parking lights will turn on and
remain on as long as the engine is
running.
. The doors will be locked and the air
conditioner system may turn on.
. The engine will continue to run for about
10 minutes. Repeat the steps to extend
the time for an additional 10 minutes.
See “Extending engine run time” (P.3-
21).
. The rear window glass and outside mirror
defroster may turn on automatically
when the outside air temperature, the
interior temperature and the engine
coolant temperature are low.
Depress and hold the brake pedal, then place
the ignition switch in the ON position before
driving. For further instructions, see “Driving
the vehicle” (P.5-16).
EXTENDING ENGINE RUN TIME
The remote engine start function can be
extended one time by performing the steps
listed in “Remote starting the engine” (P.3-
21). Run time will be calculated as follows:
. The first 10 minute run time will start
when the remote engine start function is
performed.
. The second 10 minutes will start imme-
diately when the remote engine start
function is performed. For example, if
the engine has been running for 5
minutes, and 10 minutes are added, the
engine will run for a total of 15 minutes.
. Extending engine run time will count
towards the two remote engine start
limit.
A maximum of two remote engine starts, or
a single start with an extension, are allowed
between ignition cycles.
The ignition switch must be cycled to the ON
position and then back to the OFF position
before the remote engine start procedure
can be used again.

air temperature, the interior temperature
and the engine coolant temperature are
low, the rear window glass and outside
mirror defroster may turn on automatically.
For additional information about the remote
engine start function, see “Remote engine

Foldable outside mirrors
Fold the outside mirror by pushing it toward
the rear of the vehicle.
Reverse tilt-down feature (if so
equipped)
When backing up the vehicle, the right and
left outside mirrors will turn downward
automatically to provide better rear visibility.
1. Push the ignition switch to the ONposition.
2. Move the shift lever to the R (Reverse) position.
3. Select the right or left side mirror by operating the outside mirror control switch.
4. The outside mirror surface moves down- ward.
When one of the following conditions has
occurred, the outside mirror surface will
return to its original position.
. The shift lever is moved to any position
other than R (Reverse).
. The outside mirror control switch is set to
the center position.
. The ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
Automatic anti-glare (if so
equipped)
The outside mirrors are designed so that
they automatically change reflection ac-
cording to the intensity of the headlights of
the vehicle following you.
The anti-glare system will be automatically
turned on when the ignition switch is placed
in the ON position.
