Starting the engine (petrol-powered vehicles)
E00307000478
The starting procedure is as follows:
1.
Fasten the seat belt.
2. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
3. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
4. Fully depress the clutch pedal (M/T).
NOTE l On vehicles with the Auto Stop & Go
(AS&G) system, the starter will not operate
unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed
(Clutch interlock).
5. On vehicles equipped with M/T, place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) position.
On vehicles equipped with CVT, make sure
the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion.
Vehicles with M/T Vehicles with CVT NOTE
l The
engine can only be started when the se-
lector lever is in the “P” (PARK) or “N”
(NEUTRAL) position (CVT).
For safety reasons, the engine should be star-
ted when the selector lever is in the “P”
(PARK) position in which the driving wheels
lock.
6. Press the engine switch.
7. Make sure that all warning lamps are func- tioning properly.
NOTE l Minor noises may be heard on engine start-
up. These will disappear as the engine warms
up.
Starting the engine (diesel-powered vehicles) E00308600077
1. Fasten the seat belt.
2.
Make sure the parking brake is applied.
3. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
4. Fully depress and hold the clutch pedal.
NOTE l On vehicles with the Auto Stop & Go
(AS&G) system, the starter will not operate
unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed
(Clutch interlock). 5. Place
the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral)
position. 6. Press the engine switch.
The
diesel preheat indication lamp will first
illuminate, and then after a short time go out,
indicating that preheating is completed. The
engine will start.
NOTE l If the engine is cold, the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp is on for a longer time.
l Putting the operation mode in ON will also
start preheating the engine. When the engine
has not been started within about 5 seconds
after the diesel preheat indication lamp went
out, put the operation mode in OFF. Then, at-
tempt the engine start procedure to preheat
the engine again.
l Minor noises may be heard on engine start-
up. These will disappear as the engine warms
up. Locking and unlocking

Using the MIVEC engine*
The
MIVEC engine automatically switches its in-
take-valve control between a low-speed mode and
a high-speed mode in accordance with driving con-
ditions for maximum engine performance.
NOTE
l To protect the engine, the high-speed mode
may not be selected while the engine coolant
temperature is low.
Stopping the engine E00312600023WARNING
l Do
not operate the engine switch while
driving except in an emergency. If the en-
gine is stopped while driving, the brake
servomechanism will cease to function
and braking efficiency will deteriorate.
Also, the power steering system will not
function and it will require greater man-
ual effort to operate the steering. This
could result in a serious accident.
NOTE l If
you have to bring the engine to an emergen-
cy stop while driving, press and hold the en-
gine switch for 3 seconds or more, or press it
quickly 3 times or more. The engine will
stop and the operation mode will go to ACC. l
Do not stop the engine with the selector lever
in
any position other than the “P” (PARK) po-
sition (CVT). If the engine is stopped with
the selector lever in any position other than
the “P” (PARK) position, the operation
mode will go to ACC rather than OFF.
Put the operation mode in OFF after placing
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position.
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Fully engage the parking brake while depress- ing the brake pedal.
3. On vehicles with M/T, press the engine switch to stop the engine, move the gearshift
lever to the 1 st
(on a uphill) or “R” (Reverse)
(on a downhill) position.
On vehicles with CVT, move the selector lev-
er to the “P” (PARK) position, press the en-
gine switch to stop the engine.
If the keyless operation key is not oper-
ating properly E00312500093
Insert the keyless operation key into the key slot in
the
glove box. Starting the engine and changing the
operation mode should now be possible. Remove the keyless operation key from the key
slot
after starting the engine or changing the opera-
tion mode. NOTE
l Do
not insert into the key slot anything other
than the keyless operation key. This could
cause damage or a malfunction.
l Remove the object or additional key from the
the keyless operation key before inserting the
key into the key slot.
The vehicle may not be able to receive the
registered ID code from the registered key.
Therefore, the engine may not start and the
operation mode may not change.

Warning lamps
E00502400147Brake warning lamp
E00502502357
This
lamp illuminates when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position or
the operation mode is put in ON, and
goes off after a few seconds.
Always make sure that the lamp goes off
before driving.
With the ignition switch or the operation
mode in ON, the brake warning lamp il-
luminates under the following conditions:
l When the parking brake lever has
been engaged.
l When the brake fluid level in the
reservoir falls to a low level.
l When the brake force distribution
function is not operating correctly. CAUTION
l
In
the situations listed below,
brake performance may be com-
promised or the vehicle may be-
come unstable if brakes are ap-
plied suddenly; consequently,
avoid driving at high speeds or
applying the brakes suddenly.
Furthermore, the vehicle
should be brought to a stop in a
safe location and to have it
checked. CAUTION
• The
brake warning lamp
does not illuminate when
the parking brake is applied
or does not turn off when
the parking brake is re-
leased.
• The ABS warning lamp and brake warning lamp illumi-
nate at the same time
For details, refer to “ABS
warning lamp” on page
4-39.
• The brake warning lamp re- mains illuminated during
driving.
l The vehicle should be brought
to a halt in the following man-
ner when brake performance
has deteriorated.
• Depress the brake pedalharder than usual.
Even if the brake pedal
moves down to the very end
of its possible stroke, keep it
pressed down hard.
• Should the brakes fail, use engine braking to reduce
your speed and pull the park-
ing brake lever.
Depress the brake pedal to
operate the stop lamp to
alert the vehicles behind you. Check engine warning lamp
E00502601638
This
lamp is a part of an onboard diag-
nostic system which monitors the emis-
sions, engine control system or CVT con-
trol system.
If a problem is detected in one of these
systems, this lamp illuminates or flashes.
Although your vehicle will usually be
drivable and not need towing, we recom-
mend you to have the system checked as
soon as possible.
This lamp will also illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned “ON” or the op-
eration mode is put in ON, and goes off
after the engine has started. If it does not
go off after the engine has started, we rec-
ommend you to have the vehicle checked. CAUTION
l
Prolonged
driving with this
lamp on may cause further dam-
age to the emission control sys-
tem. It could also affect fuel
economy and drivability.
l If the lamp does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position or
the operation mode is put in
ON, we recommend you to
have the system checked. Instruments and controls

Brake warning display E00524700267
Type 1 Type 2
This warning is displayed if you drive with the park-
ing
brake still applied. The warning lamp in the in-
strument cluster only illuminates when the parking
brake is applied. CAUTION
l
If a vehicle is driven without releasing the
parking
brake, the brake will be overhea-
ted, resulting in ineffective braking and
possible brake failure.
If this warning is displayed, release the
parking brake.
Type 1 Type 2
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” po-
sition
or the operation mode is put in ON, if the
brake fluid is low, this warning is displayed.
The warning lamp in the instrument cluster also il-
luminates. CAUTION
l
If
this warning stays illuminated and
does not go out while driving, there is a
danger of ineffective braking. In this
case, immediately park your vehicle in a
safe place and we recommend you to
have it checked.
l If the brake warning display is displayed
and the brake warning lamp and the ABS
warning lamp are illuminated at the same
time, the braking force distribution func-
tion will not operate, so the vehicle may
be destabilised during sudden braking.
Avoid sudden braking and high-speed
driving, stop the vehicle in a safe place,
and we recommend you to have it checked.
l The vehicle should be brought to a halt in
the following manner when brake per-
formance has deteriorated.
• Depress the brake pedal harder thanusual.
Even if the brake pedal moves down
to the very end of its possible stroke,
keep it pressed down hard.
• Should the brakes fail, use engine brak- ing to reduce your speed and pull the
parking brake lever.
Depress the brake pedal to operate
the stop lamp to alert the vehicles be-
hind you. Instruments and controls
