REAR VIEW MONITOR SETTING
WARNING
Do not adjust the Brightness, Contrast,
Tint and Color of the rear view monitor
while the vehicle is moving. Make sure
the parking brake is firmly applied and
the engine is not running.
To adjust the Brightness, Contrast, Tint and
Color of the rear view monitor, push the “SET-
TING” button with the rear view monitor on,
select the item key and adjust the level using the
joystick.OPERATING TIPSWhen the shift lever is shifted to R, the
monitor screen automatically changes to the
rear view monitor mode. However, the radio
can be heard.
It may take some time until the rear view
monitor is displayed after the shift lever has
been shifted to R. Objects may be distorted
momentarily until the rear view monitor
screen is displayed completely. When the
shift lever is returned to a position other than
R, it may take some time until the screenchanges. Objects on the screen may be
distorted until they are completely displayed.
When the temperature is extremely high or
low, the screen may not clearly display ob-
jects. This is not a malfunction.
When strong light directly enters the camera,
objects may not be displayed clearly.
Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light
from the bumper. This is not a malfunction.
The screen may flicker under fluorescent
light. This is not a malfunction.
The colors of objects on the rear view monitor
may differ somewhat from those of the actual
object.
When the contrast of objects is low at night,
pushing the “ENTER” button may not change
the brightness.
Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a
dark place or at night.
If dirt, rain or snow attaches to the camera,
the rear view monitor may not clearly display
objects. Clean the camera.
Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to
clean the camera. This will cause discolora-
tion. To clean the camera, wipe with a cloth

Turn the ignition switch to ACC or ON and push
the power on switch to turn on the radio. If you
listen to the radio with the engine not running,
the key should be turned to the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external in-
fluences. Intermittent changes in reception qual-
ity normally are caused by these external
influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the ve-
hicle may influence radio reception quality.Radio receptionYour radio system is equipped with state-of-the-
art electronic circuits to enhance radio recep-
tion. These circuits are designed to extend re-
ception range, and to enhance the quality of that
reception.
However there are some general characteristics
of FM, AM and satellite radio signals that can
affect radio reception quality in a moving vehicle,
even when the finest equipment is used. These
characteristics are completely normal in a given
reception area, and do not indicate any malfunc-
tion in your radio system.
Remember that a moving vehicle is not the ideal
place to listen to a radio. Because of the move-
ment, reception conditions will constantlychange. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and
interference from other vehicles can work
against ideal reception. Described below are
some of the factors that can affect your radio
reception.
FM RADIO RECEPTIONRange: FM range is normally limited to 25 to 30
miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural (single
channel) FM having slightly more range than
stereo FM. External influences may sometimes
interfere with FM station reception even if the FM
station is within 25 miles (40 km). The strength
of the FM signal is directly related to the distance
between the transmitter and receiver. FM signals
follow a line-of-sight path, exhibiting many of the
same characteristics as light. For example they
will reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from

speed for a short distance first, especially in
cold weather.
In cold weather, keep the engine running for
a minimum of2-3minutes before shutting it
off. Starting and stopping the engine over a
short period of time may make the vehicle
more difficult to start.
CVT (Continuously Variable
Transmission)
Gate type shiftThe CVT in your vehicle is electronically con-
trolled by a transmission control module to pro-
duce maximum power and smooth operation.
Shown on the following pages are the recom-
mended operating procedures for this transmis-
sion. Follow these procedures for maximum ve-
hicle performance and driving enjoyment.Starting the vehicleAfter starting the engine, fully depress the foot
brake pedal before shifting the shift lever to the
R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), S (Second)
or L (Low) position. Be sure the vehicle is fully
stopped before attempting to shift the selector
lever.
This CVT model is designed so that the
foot brake pedal must be depressed be-
fore shifting from P (Park) to any drive
position while the ignition switch is ON.
The shift lever cannot be moved out of P
(Park) position and into any of the other
shift range if the ignition switch is turned
to the LOCK, OFF or ACC position or if the
key is removed from the switch.
