Protecting Your Discs
General Information
When using CD-R or CD-RW discs, use only high quality discs labelled for audio use.
When recording a CD-R or CD-RW, the recording must be closed for it to be used by the system.
Play only standard round discs. Odd-shaped discs may jam in the drive or cause other problems.
Handle your discs properly to prevent damage and skipping.
Do not use discs with adhesive labels. The label can curl up and cause the disc to jam in the unit.
268
Features
Protecting Discs When a disc is not being played, store it in its case to protect it from dust and other contamination. To prevent warpage, keep discs out of direct sunlight and extreme heat.
To clean a disc, use a clean soft cloth. Wipe across the disc from the centre to the outside edge.
A new disc may be rough on the inner and outer edges. The small plastic pieces causing this roughness can flake off and fall on the recording surface of the disc, causing skipping or other problems. Remove these pieces by rubbing the inner and outer edges with the side of a pencil or pen.
Never try to insert foreign objects in the disc player.
Handle a disc by its edges; never touch either surface. Do not place stabilizer rings or labels on the disc. These, along with contamination from fingerprints, liquids, and felt-tip pens, can cause the disc to not play properly, or possibly jam in the drive.

your vehicle and valuables from theft.
The horn sounds (the beeping alarm
on vehicles with ultrasonic sensor)
and the turn signal lights flash if
someone attempts to break into your
vehicle or remove the audio display

seconds, then the system resets.
To turn off an alarming system before 30 seconds have elapsed, unlock the driver’s door with the ignition key or the remote transmitter.
Security System (For some types)
SECURITY SYSTEM INDICATOR On vehicles with the ultrasonic sensor, only the remote transmitter can turn off the security system. Unlocking the driver’s door with the key cannot turn off the security system and activates the alarm.
The security system sets
automatically 15 seconds (25
seconds on vehicles equipped with
the ultrasonic sensor activated) after
you lock the doors, bonnet, and
tailgate. For the system to activate,
you must lock the doors and the
tailgate from the outside with the
key or remote transmitter. The

immediately to show you the system
is setting itself.
To set the ultrasonic sensor along with the security system, you should lock the doors and the tailgate with the key or the remote transmitter.

Security System (For some types)
When you lock the doors and the tailgate with the key or the remote transmitter, all outside turn signals and both indicators in the instrument panel flash three times to verify the doors and the tailgate are locked and the security system has set. When you unlock them, these lights flash once.
The security system also sets after you lock the doors and the tailgate with the lock tab or master door lock switch on the driver’s door while pulling the outside door handle.
Once the security system is set, opening either door or tailgate (without using the key or the remote transmitter), or the bonnet, will cause it to alarm. It also alarms if the audio unit is removed from the dashboard or the wiring is cut.
The alarm will also be activated if the passenger inside the locked vehicle turns the ignition switch on.

Ultrasonic Sensor (For some types)
ULTRASONIC SENSORS
The ultrasonic sensor is only activated when the security system is set by the key or the remote transmitter. It monitors the interior of the vehicle and activates the alarm if someone intrudes into the passenger compartment through a window, or moves in the compartment. With the security system set, only the ultrasonic sensor may activate.
Security System (For some types)
Whether the ultrasonic sensor is activated or not, the security system can only be turned off by the remote transmitter, not the key.
If you set the security system with the windows open, the ultrasonic sensor may activate the alarm unexpectedly when the system senses strong vibrations on the vehicle or loud sound.
You can set the security system without activating the ultrasonic sensor. Pull the driver’s outside door handle and push the lock tab in. Release the handle, then close the door. The security system indicator on the instrument panel comes on for 3 seconds, then starts blinking.

Cruise Control (For some types)
Cruise control allows you to maintain a set speed above 40 km/h (25 mph) without keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal. It should be used for cruising on straight, open motorways. It is not recommended for city driving, winding roads, slippery roads, heavy rain, or bad weather.
Improper use of the cruise control can lead to a crash.
Use the cruise control only when travelling on open motorways in good weather.

Optionalonvehicleswithnavigation system Your vehicle is equipped with the Hands-Free Telephone (HFT) system. HFT system uses Bluetooth technology as a wireless link between it and your Bluetooth compatible mobile phone. When you are in your vehicle and your phone is linked to the HFT system, you’ll enjoy hands-free phone use. The HFT system is available in any of the five languages; English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish. To change the language, see page

Hands-Free Telephone (HFT) System (For some types)
To use the HFT system, your phone must have approved Bluetooth capability along with the Hands Free Profile. This type of phone is available through many phone makers and network operators.
Incoming/Outgoing Calls With a linked phone, the HFT system allows you to send and receive calls in your vehicle without holding the phone.
Voice Control
HFT system recognizes simple voice
commands, such as phone numbers
and names. It uses these commands
to automatically dial, receive, and
store numbers. For more
information on voice control, see

Bluetooth Wireless Technology
Bluetooth is a registered trademark
of Bluetooth SIG, Inc.
Bluetooth is the wireless technology

The HFT system can store up to 50
names and phone numbers in its
phonebook. With a linked phone, you
can then automatically dial any name
or number in the phonebook.
Here are the main components of the HFT system:
Microphone The HFT system microphone is on the ceiling console. The microphone is shared with the navigation system.
Audio System When the HFT system is in use, the sound comes through the vehicle’s front audio system speakers. If the audio system is in use while operating either of HFT buttons or making a call, the HFT system over- rides the audio system. To change the volume level, use the audio system volume knob.
