After a few driving trips, the
light should
turn off if no other potential emission control
system malfunction exists.
If this indicator light remains on for 20 seconds
and then blinks for 10 seconds when the engine
is not running, it indicates that the vehicle is not
ready for an emission control system inspection/
maintenance test. (See “Readiness for Inspec-
tion/Maintenance (I/M) test” (P.10-18) .)

To back up, pull the shift lever ring*1upward
and then move it to the R (Reverse) gear after
stopping the vehicle completely.
The shift lever ring returns to its original position
when the shift lever is moved to the N (Neutral)
position.
If it is difficult to move the shift lever into the R
(Reverse) or 1st gear, shift to the N (Neutral)
position, and then release the clutch pedal once.
Fully depress the clutch pedal again and shift
into the R (Reverse) or 1st gear.Suggested maximum speed in each gear
Downshift to a lower gear if the engine is not
running smoothly, or if you need to accelerate.
Do not exceed the maximum suggested speed
(shown below) in any gear. For level road
driving, use the highest gear suggested for that
speed. Always observe posted speed limits, and
drive according to the road conditions, which
will ensure safe operation. Do not over-rev the
engine when shifting to a lower gear as it may
cause engine damage or loss of vehicle control.

WARNING
.Never drive the vehicle with the
parking brake applied. The brake
will overheat and fail to operate and
will lead to an accident.
.Never release the parking brake
from outside the vehicle. If the
vehicle moves, it will be impossible
to push the foot brake pedal and
will lead to an accident.
.Never use the shift lever in place of
the parking brake. When parking, be
sure the parking brake is fully
applied.
.To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of
the vehicle and/or its systems, do
not leave children, people who re-
quire the assistance of others or
pets unattended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature inside
a closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or
death to people and pets.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the RCTA
system could result in serious injury or
death.
.The RCTA system is not a replace-
ment for proper driving procedures
and is not designed to prevent
contact with vehicles or objects.
When backing out of a parking
space, always use the side and rear
mirrors and turn and look in the
direction your vehicle will move.
Never rely solely on the RCTA sys-
tem.
The RCTA system will assist you when backing
out from a parking space. When the vehicle is in
reverse, the system is designed to detect other
vehicles approaching from the right or left of the
vehicle. If the system detects cross traffic, it will
alert you.
