WARNING
∙ Failure to follow the warnings and in-structions for proper use of the Moving
Object Detection system could result in
serious injury or death.
∙ The MOD system is not a substitute for proper vehicle operation and is not de-
signed to prevent contact with objects
surrounding the vehicle. When maneu-
vering, always use the outside mirrors
and rearview mirror and turn and check
the surroundings to ensure it is safe to
maneuver.
∙ The system is deactivated at speeds above 6 mph (10 km/h). It is reactivated
at lower speeds.
∙ The MOD system is not designed to de- tect surrounding stationary objects.
The MOD system can inform the driver of
moving objects near the vehicle when back-
ing out of garages, maneuvering in parking
lots and in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the
image shown in the display.
MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automatically
under the following conditions: ∙ When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position.
∙ When the CAMERA
button is
pressed to activate the camera view on
the display.
∙ When vehicle speed decreases below ap- proximately 6 mph (10 km/h) and the
camera screen is displayed.
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is dis-
played:∙ When the shift lever is in the P (Park) or N (Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects mov-
ing objects in the bird’s-eye view. The
MOD system will not operate if the out-
side mirrors are moving in or out, in the
stowed position, or if either front door is
opened.

cordance with these system limitations
could result in serious injury or death.
∙ Do not use the MOD system when tow- ing a trailer. The system may not function
properly.
∙ Excessive noise (for example, audio sys- tem volume or open vehicle window) will
interfere with the chime sound, and it
may not be heard.
∙ The MOD system performance will be limited according to environmental con-
ditions and surrounding objects such as:
– When there is low contrast between background and the moving objects.
– When there is a blinking source of light.
– When strong light such as another ve- hicle’s headlight or sunlight is present.
– When camera orientation is not in its usual position, such as when a mirror is
folded. – When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving ob- jects in the display is not changed.
∙ The MOD system might detect flowing water droplets on the camera lens, white
smoke from the muffler, moving shad-
ows, etc.
∙ The MOD system may not function prop- erly depending on the speed, direction,
distance or shape of the moving objects.
∙ If your vehicle sustains damage to the parts where the camera is installed, leav-
ing it misaligned or bent, the sensing zone
may be altered and the MOD system may
not detect objects properly.
∙ When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not display objects
clearly. This is not a malfunction.
NOTE:
The blue MOD icon will change to orange if
one of the following has occurred: ∙ When the system is malfunctioning.

WARNING
∙ Do not leave children or adults whowould normally require the assistance of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets should
also not be left alone. They could acciden-
tally injure themselves or others through
inadvertent operation of the vehicle.
Also, 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.
∙ Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
WARNING
∙ Do not breathe exhaust gases; they con-tain colorless and odorless carbon mon-
oxide. Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It
can cause unconsciousness or death.
∙ If you suspect that exhaust fumes are en- tering the vehicle, drive with all windows
fully open, and have the vehicle inspected
immediately. ∙ Do not run the engine in closed spaces
such as a garage.
∙ Do not park the vehicle with the engine running for any extended length of time.
∙ Keep the rear vent windows, liftgates, doors and trunk lids (if so equipped)
closed while driving, otherwise exhaust
gases could be drawn into the passenger
compartment. If you must drive with one
of these open, follow these precautions:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the
air recirculation button
to off and the fan control dial to high
to circulate the air.
∙ If electrical wiring or other cable connec- tions must pass to a trailer through the
seal on the liftgate or the body, follow
the manufacturer’s recommendation to
prevent carbon monoxide entry into the
vehicle.
∙ The exhaust system and body should be inspected by a qualified mechanic
whenever:
a. The vehicle is raised for service.
b.
You suspect that exhaust fumes are en-
tering into the passenger compartment.
c. You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
d. You have had an accident involving damage to the exhaust system, un-
derbody, or rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYST
The three-way catalyst is an emission control
device installed in the exhaust system. Ex-
haust gases in the three-way catalyst are
burned at high temperatures to help reduce
pollutants.
WARNING
∙ The exhaust gas and the exhaust systemare very hot. Keep people, animals or
flammable materials away from the ex-
haust system components.
∙ Do not stop or park the vehicle over flam- mable materials such as dry grass, waste
paper or rags. They may ignite and cause
a fire.
CAUTION
∙ Do not use leaded gasoline. Depositsfrom leaded gasoline will seriously reduce
the three-way catalyst’s ability to help
reduce exhaust pollutants.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING
AND DRIVING
5-4Starting and driving
Page 272 of 540

∙ The low tire pressure warning light doesnot automatically turn off when the tire
pressure is adjusted. After the tire is in-
flated to the recommended pressure, the
vehicle must be driven at speeds above
16 mph (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS
and turn off the low tire pressure warning
light. Use a tire pressure gauge to check
the tire pressure.
∙ The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warn- ing appears in the vehicle information
display when the low tire pressure warn-
ing light is illuminated and low tire pres-
sure is detected. The “Tire Pressure Low -
Add Air” warning turns off when the low
tire pressure warning light turns off.
∙ The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warn- ing appears each time the ignition switch
is in the ON position as long as the low
tire pressure warning light remains illumi-
nated.
∙ The “Tire Pressure Low — Add Air” warn- ing does not appear if the low tire pres-
sure warning light illuminates to indicate
a TPMS malfunction. ∙ Tire pressure rises and falls depending on
the heat caused by the vehicle’s opera-
tion and the outside temperature. Do not
reduce the tire pressure after driving be-
cause the tire pressure rises after driving.
Low outside temperature can lower the
temperature of the air inside the tire
which can cause a lower tire inflation
pressure. This may cause the low tire
pressure warning light to illuminate. If the
warning light illuminates, check the tire
pressure for all four tires.
∙ The Tire and Loading Information label is located in the driver’s door opening.
∙ You can also check the pressure of all tires (except the spare tire) on the vehicle
information display screen. The order of
the tire pressure figures displayed on the
screen corresponds with the actual order
of the tire position.
For additional information, refer to “Low tire
pressure warning light” and “Tire Pressure
Low — Add Air” in the “Instruments and con-
trols” section and “Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)” in the “In case of emergency”
section of this manual.WARNING
∙ Radio waves could adversely affect elec- tric medical equipment. Those who use a
pacemaker should contact the electric
medical equipment manufacturer for the
possible influences before use.
∙ If the low tire pressure warning light illu- minates while driving, avoid sudden
steering maneuvers or abrupt braking,
reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the vehicle as
soon as possible. Driving with under-
inflated tires may permanently damage
the tires and increase the likelihood of
tire failure. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to an accident and
could result in serious personal injury.
Check the tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on
the Tire and Loading Information label to
turn the low tire pressure warning light
off. If you have a flat tire, replace it with a
spare tire as soon as possible. (For addi-
tional information, refer to “Flat tire” in
the “In case of emergency” section for
changing a flat tire.)
