OPERATING THE PASSENGER'S WIN-
DOW
Use the switch on the passenger's
door. The driver's door also has a
switch that controls the passenger's
window.
The window moves as long as you hold the switch.
To open: Pull down the switch.
To close: Push up the switch.
If you push in the window lock button on
the driver's door, the passenger's window cannot be operated.
CAUTION!
To avoid serious personal injury,
you must do the following. Always make sure the head,
hands and other parts of the
body of all occupants are kept
completely inside the vehicle be-
fore you close the power win-
dows. If someone's neck, head or
hands gets caught in a closing
window, it could result in a seri-
ous injury. When anyone closes
the power windows, be sure that
they operate the windows safely.
When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the pow-
er window switches without su-
pervision. Use the window lock
button to prevent them from mak-
ing unexpected use of the switches.
Never leave small children alone
in the vehicle, especially with the
ignition key still inserted. They
could use the power window
switches and get trapped in a
window. Unattended children
can become involved in serious accidents.

side, insert the key and turn it clock- wise.

Part 2 for precautions to observe in load- ing luggage.
To close the back door, lower it and press
down on it. After closing the back door, try
pulling it up to make sure it is securely closed.
Keep the back door closed while
driving. This not only keeps the
luggage from being thrown out but
also prevents exhaust gases from
entering the vehicle.

er's seat, pull up on the lock release
lever.To open the hood, pull the hood lock
release lever under the dash. The hood

Before closing the hood, check to see that
you have not forgotten any tools, rags,
etc. and return the support rod to its clipÐthis prevents rattles.

To close the hood, lower the hood until it is about 30 cm (12 in.) above the engine
compartment and release it. If the hood is
still not fully closed, press down on it
above the two hood locks. Make sure the
hood is locked securely.
If you notice while driving that the hood is not securely locked, stop the vehicle at
once and close the hood.
CAUTION!
After inserting the rod, make sure
it supports the hood securely.
When closing the hood, be care- ful not to get your hands caught
between the hood and the vehicle
body.
NOTICE

may deform the hood.

To deter the vehicle theft, the system is
designed to give an alarm and keep the
engine from being started if any of the
side doors, back door or hood is forci-
bly unlocked or the battery terminal is
disconnected and then reconnected
when the vehicle is locked.
The alarm blows the horn intermittently
and flashes the headlights, tail lights andother exterior lights. The engine cannot
be started because the starter circuit will be cut.SETTING THE SYSTEM
1. Turn the ignition key to the LOCKº
position and remove it.
2. Have all passengers get out of the ve- hicle.
3. Close and lock all the side doors, back
door and hood.
The indicator light will come on when all
the side doors, back door and hood are
closed and locked.
As the side doors are locked, the system
will give you a preparation time of 30 sec-
onds before the setting, during which the
side doors, back door and hood may be
opened to prepare for the setting. Be careful not to use the key when open-
ing either side door. This will cancel the system.
4. After making sure the indicator light
starts fl
ashing, you may leave the vehicle.
The system will automatically be set after the preparation time passes. The indica-
tor light will flash to show the system is
set. If any of the side doors, back door or
hood is open at that time, the setting is in-
terrupted until it is closed and locked. Never leave anyone in the vehicle when you set the system, because unlocking
from the inside will activate the system. WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SET Activating the system
The system will give the alarm and cut the
starter circuit under the following condi- tions: If any of the side doors, back door or
hood is unlocked without using the
key.
If the battery terminal is disconnectedand then reconnected
After one minute, the alarm will automati-
cally stop with the starter circuit cut kept on.

Interrupting the setting When the system set, the back door can
be opened by using the key without set-
ting off the system. While the back door is

side doors and hood may be opened in
addition. However, when the battery ter-
minal is disconnected and then recon-
nected, the system is activated. Close and lock the side doors and hood,
and the system will automatically be reset
after two seconds when the back door isclosed with the key removed. CANCELLING THE SYSTEM
