l When
taking a key on flights, do not
press any switches on the key while on
the plane. If a switch is pressed on the
plane, the key emits electromagnetic
waves, which could adversely affect the
plane’s flight operation.
When carrying a key in a bag, be careful
that no switches on the key can be easily
pressed by mistake. NOTE
l The

key number is stamped on the tag as in-
dicated in the illustration.
Make a record of the key number and store
the key and key number tag in separate pla-
ces, so that you can order a key in the event
the original keys are lost.
l The key is a precision electronic device with
a built-in signal transmitter. Please observe
the following in order to prevent a malfunc-
tion.
• Do not leave in a place that is exposed todirect sunlight, for example on the dash-
board.
• Do not disassemble or modify.
• Do not excessively bend the key or sub- ject it to strong impacts.
• Do not expose to water.
• Keep away from magnetic key rings.
• Keep away from audio systems, personal computers, TVs, and other equipment
that generates a magnetic field.
• Keep away from devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves, such as cellular
phones, wireless devices and high frequen-
cy equipment (including medical devices).
• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners or similar equipment.
• Do not leave the key where it may be ex- posed to high temperature or high humid-
ity.
l The engine is designed so that it will not
start if the ID code registered in the immobil-
izer computer and the key’s ID code do not
match. Refer to the “Electronic immobilizer”
section for details and key usage.

CAUTION
l
Do not use alcohol or methanol anti-
freeze or any engine coolants mixed with
alcohol or methanol anti-freeze. The use
of an improper anti-freeze can cause cor-
rosion of the aluminium components.
l Do not use water to adjust the concentra-
tion of coolant.
l Concentrations exceeding 60 % will re-
sult in a reduction of both the anti-freeze
and cooling performance thus adversely
affecting the engine.
l Do not top up with water only.
Water by itself reduces the rust-protec-
tive and anti-freeze qualities of the cool-
ant and has a lower boiling point. It can
also cause damage to the cooling system if
it should freeze. Do not use tapwater, as it
can cause corrosion and rust formation.
During cold weather
If
the temperatures in your area drop below freez-
ing, there is the danger that the coolant in the en-
gine or radiator could freeze and cause severe dam-
age to the engine and/or radiator. Add a sufficient
amount of anti-freeze to the coolant to prevent it
from freezing.
The concentration should be checked before the
start of cold weather and anti-freeze added to the
system if necessary. Washer fluid
E01000700832
Open

the washer fluid reservoir cap and check the
level of washer fluid with the dipstick.
If the level is low, replenish the container with wash-
er fluid.
EMPTY
FULL NOTE
l The

washer fluid container serves the wind-
screen, rear window and headlamps (if so
equipped).
During cold weather
To ensure proper operation of the washers at low
temperatures, use a fluid containing an anti-freez-
ing agent. Brake fluid/Clutch fluid*
E01000800631
The

brake fluid and the clutch fluid share the reser-
voir tank.
To check the fluid level
The fluid level must be between the “MAX” and
“MIN” marks on the reservoir. The fluid level is monitored by a float. When the
fluid

level falls below the “MIN” mark, the brake
fluid warning lamp lights up.
The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the brake
pads, but this does not indicate any abnormality.

The fluid in the master cylinder should be checked
when doing other work under the bonnet. The
brake system should also be checked for leakage at
the same time.
If the fluid level falls markedly in a short length of
time, it indicates leaks from the brake system.
If this occurs, we recommend you to have the vehi-
cle checked. Maintenance
