The light acts as a reminder to have the front passenger buckle up the seat belt. Once the ignition key is turned to “ON”, the reminder light flashes if a passenger sits in the front passenger seat and does not fasten the seat belt. Unless the front passenger fastens the belt, the light con- tinues flashing.

(g) Low Fuel Level Warning Light This light comes on when the fuel level in the tank becomes nearly empty. Fill up the tank as soon as possible. On inclines or curves, due to the move- level ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel warning light may come on earlier than usual. (h) “ABS” Warning Light
(on some models)
The light comes on when the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position. If the anti− lock brake system works properly, the light turns off after a few seconds. There- after, if the system malfunctions, the light comes on again.

Be sure to shift the se- lector lever to the “D” position immedi- ately afterward.
D When towing a trailer, in order to main- tain engine braking efficiency, do not use “D” position. The selector lever must be in the “4” (5−speed models) or “3” (4−speed models) position.
CAUTION
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the engine running. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.
NOTICE
Always use the brake pedal or the parking brake to hold the vehicle on an upgrade. Do not attempt to hold the vehicle using the accelerator ped- al, as this can cause the transmission to overheat.

If you cannot move the selector le- ver out of “P” position
If you cannot shift the selector lever from the “P” position even though the brake pedal is depressed, use the “SHIFT LOCK” button. For instructions, see “If you cannot shift automatic transmission selec- tor lever” on page 218.

The shift pattern is conventional as shown above. Press the clutch pedal down fully while shifting, and then release it slowly. Do not rest your foot on the pedal while driving, because it will cause clutch trouble. Do not use the clutch to hold the vehicle when stopped on an uphill grade—use the parking brake. Upshifting too soon or downshifting too late will cause lugging, and possibly ping- ing. Regularly revving the engine to maxi- mum speed in each gear will cause ex- cessive fuel consumption.

Cruise control (on some models) The cruise control is designed to main- tain a set cruising speed without requir- ing the driver to operate the accelera- tor. Cruising speed can be set to any speed above 40 km/h (25 mph). Within the limits of the engine’s capabili- ties, cruising speed can be maintained up or down grades. However, changes in ve- hicle speed may occur on steeper grades.
CAUTION
D To help maintain maximum control of your vehicle, do not use the cruise control when driving in heavy or varying traffic, or on slip- pery (rainy, icy or snow–covered) or winding roads.

TURNING THE SYSTEM ON AND OFF To turn the cruise control on, press the “ON−OFF” button. The “CRUISE” indicator light on the instrument panel will come on to indicate that the cruise control is opera- tional. Pressing the “ON−OFF” button again turns the system off. When the system is turned off, cruising speed must be reset when the cruise con- trol
is turned on again.

If you need acceleration—for example, when passing—depress the accelerator the vehicle to exceed pedal enough for the set speed. When you release it, the vehicle will return to the speed set prior to the acceleration. CANCELING THE CRUISE CONTROL The cruise control may be temporarily canceled by the driver or by the system itself under certain circumstances. Tempo- rary cancellation allows the set cruising speed to remain in memory. The cruise control can be temporarily can- celed by doing the following: D Pulling the lever in the “CANCEL” di-

RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED Push the lever down in the “SET/COAST” direction and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held down, the vehicle speed will gradually decrease. However, a faster way to reset is to de- press the brake pedal and then push the lever down in the “SET/COAST” direction. Even if you downshift the transmission from “D” to “4” (5−speed models) or “3” (4−speed models) with the cruise control on, engine braking will not be applied be- cause the cruise control is not canceled. To decrease the vehicle speed, reset to a lower speed with the cruise control lever or depress the brake pedal. If you use the brake pedal, cruise control is canceled.

Tone How good an audio program sounds to you is largely determined by the mix of the treble and bass levels. In fact, differ- ent kinds of music and vocal programs usually sound better with different mixes of Balance A good balance of the left and right stereo channels and of the front and rear sound levels is also important.
