WARNING
■Before using the head-up display
●Check that the position and brightness of the head-up display image does
not interfere with safe driving. Incorrect adjustment of the image’s position
or brightness may obstruct the driver’s view and lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.
●Do not continuously look at the head-up display while driving as you may
fail to see pedestrians, objects on the road, etc. ahead of the vehicle.
■Caution for changing settings of the head-up display
As the engine needs to be running while changing the settings of the head-
up display, ensure that the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate venti-
lation. In a closed area such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful
carbon monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to
death or a serious health hazard.
