speed indicated in km/h: 1 km/h (0.6 mph)
Instrument cluster display for vehicle
speed indicated in mph: 1 mph (1.6 km/h)
To Resume Cruising Speed at
More Than 25 km/h (16 mph)
If some other method besides the OFF/
CANCEL switch was used to cancel
cruising speed (such as applying the brake
pedal) and the system is still activated, the
most recent set speed will automatically
resume when the RESUME/
switch is
pressed.
If vehicle speed is below 25 km/h (16
mph), increase the vehicle speed up to 25
km/h (16 mph) or more and press the
RESUME/
switch.
To Temporarily Cancel
To temporarily cancel the system, use one
of these methods:
y Slightly depress the brake pedal.
y Press the OFF/CANCEL switch.
If the RESUME/ switch is pressed when
the vehicle speed is 25 km/h (16 mph) or
higher, the system reverts to the previously
set speed.
N O T E
y If any of the following conditions occur,
the cruise control system is temporarily
canceled.
y The parking brake is applied.
y The selector lever is in the P or N
position.
y When the cruise control system is
temporarily canceled by even one of the
applicable cancel conditions, the speed
cannot be re-set.
y The cruise control cannot be cancelled
while driving in manual mode (selector
lever shifted from D to M position).
Therefore, engine braking will not be
applied even if the transaxle is shifted
down to a lower gear. If deceleration is
required, lower the set speed or depress
the brake pedal.
To Deactivate

When Driving
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
*Some models.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System *
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all four tires. If
the air pressure of one or more tires is too low, the system warns the driver by indicating the
tire pressure monitoring system warning light in the instrument cluster and operating a beep
sound. The system monitors the tire pressures indirectly using the data sent from the ABS
wheel speed sensors.
To allow the system to operate correctly, the system needs to be initialized with the speci ¿ ed
tire pressure (value on the tire pressure label). Follow the procedure and perform the
initialization.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on page 4-154 .
The warning light À ashes when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Indication/Warning Lights on page 4-33 .

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
N O T E
Because this system detects slight changes in tire conditions, the timing of the warning may
be faster or slower in the following cases:
y The size, manufacturer, or the type of tires is different from the speci ¿ cation.
y The size, manufacturer, or the type of a tire is different from the others, or the level of tire
wear is excessively different between them.
y A run- À at tire, studless tire, snow tire, or tire chains are used.
y An emergency tire is used (The tire pressure monitoring system warning light may À ash
and then continue illuminating).
y A tire is repaired using the emergency À at tire repair kit.
y The tire pressure is excessively higher than the speci ¿ ed pressure, or the tire pressure is
suddenly lowered for some reason such as a tire burst during driving.
y The vehicle speed is lower than about 15 km/h (9.3 mph) (including when the vehicle is
stopped), or the drive period is shorter than 5 minutes.
y The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road.
y Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as during aggressive
driving on a winding road.
y Load on the vehicle is applied to a tire such as by loading heavy luggage to one side of
the vehicle.
y System initialization has not been implemented with the speci ¿ ed tire pressure.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization
In the following cases, system
initialization must be performed so that the
system operates normally.
y A tire pressure is adjusted.
y Tire rotation is performed.
y A tire or wheel is replaced.
y The battery is replaced or completely
drained.
y The tire pressure monitoring system
warning light is illuminated.
Initialization method
1. Park the car in a safe place and ¿ rmly
apply the parking brake.
2. Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire
pressure of all four (4) tires to the
speci ¿ ed pressure indicated on the tire
pressure label located on the driver's
door frame (door open).
Refer to Tires on page 9-9 .
3. Switch the ignition ON.
4. Press and hold the tire pressure
monitoring system set switch and
verify that the tire pressure monitoring
system warning light in the instrument
cluster À ashes twice and a beep sound
is heard once.
CAUTION
If the system initialization is performed
without adjusting the tire pressure,
the system cannot detect the normal
tire pressure and it may not illuminate
the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light even if a tire pressure is
low, or it may illuminate the light even
if the pressures are normal.
Adjust the tire pressure on all four
tires and initialize the system when
the warning light is turned on. If the
warning light turns on for a reason
other than a fl at tire, the tire pressure
of all four tires may have decreased
naturally.
The system initialization will not be
performed if the switch is pressed while
the vehicle is being driven.
