NOTE
l To
avoid erroneous operation, move the se-
lector lever firmly into each position and brief-
ly hold it there. Always check the position
shown by the selector lever position indica-
tion lamp after moving the selector lever.
l If the brake pedal is not depressed and held,
the shift-lock device activates to prevent the
selector lever from being moved from the
“P” (PARK) position.
l For a shift indicated by in the illustration,
depress

the brake pedal before moving the se-
lector lever. If you attempt to move the selec-
tor lever before depressing the brake pedal,
the selector lever may become immovable. Selector lever position indication

E00603500452 A- Selector lever position indication lamps
When
the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, the indication lamps in the
instrument panel illuminate to show the po-
sition of the selector lever (i.e. “PARK”,
“DRIVE”, “REVERSE”, etc.).
B- “N” indication lamp When
the “N” indication lamp blinks with
the “D” (DRIVE) position or “Sports
mode” being selected, the A/T may be mal-
functioning. CAUTION
l
If
a malfunction occurs in the A/T while
driving, the “N” indication lamp will blink.
In this case, immediately park your vehi-
cle in a safe place and follow these proce-
dures:
(The “N” indication lamp warning func-
tion does not operate with the selector lev-
er in the “P” (PARK), “R” (REVERSE)
or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.)
[The “N” indication lamp blinks rapidly
(twice per second)]
The automatic transmission fluid is over-
heating.
Park your vehicle in a safe place but do
not turn off the engine. Move the selector
lever to the “P” (PARK) position and
open the bonnet. Keep the engine idling.
After a while, move the selector lever to
the “D” (DRIVE) position and confirm
that the “N” indication lamp stops blink-
ing. It is safe to continue driving if the
“N” indication lamp no longer is no lon-
ger blinking.
If the “N” indication lamp continues blink-
ing or blinks intermittently, we recom-
mend you to have your vehicle inspected.
[The “N” indication lamp blinks slowly
(once per second)]
The A/T safety device may be operating
due to a malfunction.
We recommend you to have your vehicle
inspected as soon as possible. Starting and driving

The regulations concerning towing may differ from
country
to country. It is recommended that you
obey the regulations of the area where you are driv-
ing your vehicle. Towing the vehicle by a tow truck
CAUTION
l
This
vehicle must not be towed by a tow
truck using sling lift type equipment
(Type A) as illustrated.
Using a sling lift will damage the bumper
and front end.
l If the transmission is malfunctioning or
damaged, transport the vehicle with the
driving wheels on a carriage (Type C, D
or E) as illustrated.
l [For vehicles equipped with the Active sta-
bility control (ASC) system]
If the vehicle is towed with the ignition
key in the “ON” position and only the
front wheels or only the rear wheels
raised off the ground, the traction control
function may operate, resulting in an acci-
dent.
l If you tow an A/T vehicle with the driving
wheels on the ground (Type B) as illustra-
ted, make sure that the towing speed and
distance given below are never exceeded,
causing damage to the transmission.
Towing speed: 50 km/h (30 mph)
Towing distance: 30 km (19 miles)

For the towing speed and the towing dis-
tance, follow the local driving laws and
regulations. Towing with rear wheels off the ground (Type B)
Place

the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) posi-
tion (M/T) or the selector lever in the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position (A/T). Turn the ignition key to the
“ACC” position and secure the steering wheel in a
straight ahead position with a rope or tie-down
strap. Never place the ignition key in the “LOCK”
position when towing. CAUTION
l
Never
tow an A/T vehicle with the rear
wheels up (and the front wheels on the
ground) when the automatic transmission
fluid level is low. This may cause serious
and expensive damage to the transmission.
Towing with front wheels off the ground (Type C)
Release the parking brake.
Place
the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) posi-
tion (M/T) or the selector lever in the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position (A/T).
Emergency towing
If towing service is not available in an emergency,
your vehicle may be temporarily towed by a rope
secured to the towing hook.
If your vehicle is to be towed by another vehicle or
if your vehicle tows another vehicle, pay careful at-
tention to the following points:
If your vehicle is to be towed by another vehicle
1. Take out the towing hook, wheel nut wrenchand jack bar. (Refer to “Tools and jack” on
page 6-06.) For emergencies

Automatic transmission fluid*
E01000600857
The
proper amount of automatic transmission fluid
is essential to the life and operation of the automat-
ic transmission. Either insufficient fluid or exces-
sive fluid could cause transmission trouble. The
transmission fluid filler port cap is equipped with a
dipstick. Use the following procedure to check the
fluid level.
Procedure for checking the fluid level
1. Check the fluid level after the vehicle hasbeen driven enough to warm up the transmis-
sion fluid.
2. Park the vehicle on a flat, level surface and apply the parking brake.
3. With the engine idling and the brake pedal fully depressed, move the transmission selec-
tor lever through all the positions from P”
(PARK) to “D” (DRIVE), stopping momen-
tarily at each position.
4. Move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position.
5. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a clean lint-free cloth.
6. Reinsert the dipstick as far as it goes. 7. Remove dipstick and read the oil level.
The fluid level should always be between the
two marks on the dipstick. WARNING
l Do
not spill the fluid onto a hot exhaust
manifold during topping up or inspec-
tion, or a fire may occur.
Fluid type
Use
only “DIA QUEEN ATF SP III” transmission
fluid to ensure optimum transmission performance. Washer fluid
E01000700164
Check

the float (A) is between the “FULL” and
“EMPTY” marks on the washer fluid reservoir.
If the level is low, replenish the container with wash-
er fluid. NOTE
l The

washer fluid container serves the wind-
screen, rear window and headlamps*.
During cold weather
To ensure proper operation of the washers at low
temperatures, use a fluid containing an anti-freez-
ing agent. Maintenance
