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 4-108 .
The warning light À ashes when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Indication/Warning Lights on page 4-26 .

When Driving
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.

When Driving
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 9-8 .
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.

Climate Control System
Control Switches
Temperature control dial
This dial controls temperature. Turn it
clockwise for hot and counterclockwise
for cold.
N O T E
(Type A)
When the mode is set to
, or a position
in between them with the fan control dial
in a position other than 0 and the
temperature control dial in the maximum
cold position, the air intake selector
switches to the recirculated air position
and the A/C turns on automatically.
If A/C is not desired, press the A/C switch
to turn it off.
Fan control dial
This dial allows variable fan speeds.
The fan has seven speeds.
Mode selector dial
Turn the mode selector dial to select
air À ow mode (page 5-4 ).
N O T E
y The mode selector dial can be set at the
intermediate positions (
) between
each mode. Set the dial to an
intermediate position if you want to split
the air À ow between the two modes.
y For example, when the mode selector
dial is at the
position between the
and
positions, air À ow from the À oor
vent is less than that of the
position.
A/C switch
Press the A/C switch to turn the air
conditioner on. The indicator light on the
switch will illuminate when the fan control
dial is in any position except OFF.
Press the switch once again to turn the air
conditioner off.
N O T E
The air conditioner may not function when
the outside temperature approaches 0 °C
(32 °F).
Air intake selector
This switch controls the source of air
entering the vehicle.
Outside or recirculated air positions can be
selected. Press the switch to select outside/
recirculated air positions.
Recirculated air position (indicator light
illuminated)
Outside air is shut off. Use this position
when going through tunnels, driving in
congested traf ¿ c (high engine exhaust
areas) or when quick cooling is desired.
Outside air position (indicator light
turned off)
Outside air is allowed to enter the
cabin. Use this mode for ventilation or
windshield defrosting.
WARNING
Do not use the position in cold or
rainy weather:
Using the
position in cold or rainy
weather is dangerous as it will cause
the windows to fog up. Your vision will
be hampered, which could lead to a
serious accident.

y Setting the temperature to maximum
hot or cold will not provide the desired
temperature at a faster rate.
y When selecting heat, the system will
restrict air À ow until it has warmed to
prevent cold air from blowing out of the
vents.
Windshield Defrosting and
Defogging
Set the mode selector dial to the
position and turn the fan control dial to the
desired speed.
In this position, the outside air position
is automatically selected, and when the
fan control dial is ON, the air conditioner
automatically turns on. The air conditioner
will directly dehumidify the air to the
front windshield and side windows (page
5-4 ). Air À ow amount will be increased.
WARNING
Set the temperature control to the hot
or warm position when defogging (
position):
Using the
position with the
temperature control set to the cold
position is dangerous as it will cause
the outside of the windshield to fog up.
Your vision will be hampered, which
could lead to a serious accident.
N O T E
Use the temperature control dial to
increase the air À ow temperature and
defog the windshield more quickly.
