3-4Pre-driving checks and adjustments
WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping
to prevent persons from being
thrown from the vehicle. This also
helps keep children and others from
unintentionally opening the doors,
and will help keep out intruders.
. Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents.
SPA2565
LOCKING WITH MECHANICAL KEY
The power door lock system allows you to lock
or unlock all doors simultaneously using the
mechanical key.
.Turning the driver’s door key cylinder to the
front of the vehicle
*1will lock all doors.
. Turning the driver’s door key cylinder once
to the rear of the vehicle
*2will unlock the
driver’s door. After returning the key to the
neutral position
*3, turning it to the rear
again within 60 seconds will unlock all
doors.
. You can switch the lock system to the mode
that allows you to open all the doors when
the key is turned once. (See “How to use SETTING button” (P.4-10).)
OPENING AND CLOSING WINDOWS
WITH THE MECHANICAL KEY
The driver’s door key operation also allows you
to open and close the window that is equipped
with the automatic open/close function. (See
“Power windows” (P.2-45).)
To open the window, turn the driver’s door key
cylinder to the rear of the vehicle for
longer
than 1 second. The door is unlocked and the
window keeps opening while turning the key.
This function can also be performed by pushing
and holding the UNLOCK button on the
Intelligent Key. (See “Remote keyless entry
system” (P.3-13) .)
To close the window, turn the driver’s door key
cylinder to the front of the vehicle for longer
than 1 second. The door is locked and the
window keeps closing while turning the key.

WARNING
.Park the vehicle in a safe and level
place and apply the parking brake.
. Make sure the area is clear of
obstacles and there is enough clear-
ance over the top (for example, in a
garage or a covered area) . More
than approximately 6.6 ft (2 m) from
the ground is required to open or
close the top safely. Otherwise, the
top may damage any objects above
it while moving. The top operating
system could also be damaged.
. Do not operate the top in a strong
wind. It could be blown by the wind,
striking someone or damage the
top.
. Do not allow anyone to stand up or
extend any portion of their body out
of the opening while the vehicle is in
motion or while the top is being
operated.
. In an accident you could be thrown
from the vehicle with an open top.
Always use seat belts and proper child restraints.CAUTION
.
Do not operate the top when the
temperature is below 328 F(08C) .
This may result in damage to the
top material or operating system.
. Remove water drops, snow, ice or
sand from the top, and dry the
surface of the top completely before
opening it.
. Do not open the top when it is wet
or damp. This may cause interior
water damage, stains or mildew on
the top material.
. Be sure to turn off the rear window
defroster switch. Never turn it on
while the top is being operated or
fully opened. The heat may damage
the top material.
SPA2691
CAUTION
.Do not place any objects between
the top cloth and the structure.
Doing so could interfere with top
operation and cause damage to the
top operating system or the objects.
. Do not place anything on the top
and the storage lid. Even small
items may interfere with the top
operation and could cause damage
to the top or the vehicle body.

3-36Pre-driving checks and adjustments
WARNING
.Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose control
of your vehicle and cause an acci-
dent.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel
any closer to you than is necessary
for proper steering operation and
comfort. The driver’s air bag inflates
with great force. If you are unrest-
rained, leaning forward, sitting side-
ways or out of position in any way,
you are at greater risk of injury or
death in a crash. You may also
receive serious or fatal injuries from
the air bag if you are up against it
when it inflates. Always sit back
against the seatback and as far
away as practical from the steering
wheel. Always use the seat belts.
SPA2583
