The maximum capacity of the power outlet varies depending on

the position of the shift lever.

• The maximum capacity is 120 V AC/100 W when the shift

lever is in any position other than P or N.

• The maximum capacity is 120 V AC/400 W when the shift

lever is in P or N.

The maximum capacity of 400 W can only be restored by turning the

dard, or may be cut off completely, even when the vehicle is stationary.

■The protection circuit may be activated to cut the power supply if any of

5

the following conditions apply:

● The engine is started with the power outlet main switch on.

● Use of electrical appliances exceeding the maximum capacity is attempted.

A sound may be heard when the protection circuit is activated. This is nor-

mal and does not indicate a malfunction.

● Electrical appliances, which consume power exceeding 100 W, have been

used continuously for a long time period.

■ Before programming HomeLink^®

● During programming, it is possible that garage doors, gates, or

other devices may operate. For this reason, make sure that peo-

ple and objects are clear of the garage door or other devices to

prevent injury or other potential harm.

● It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the remote

control transmitter for more accurate programming.

● Garage door openers manufactured after 1995 may be equipped

with rolling code protection. If this is the case, you will need a

stepladder or other sturdy, safe device to reach the “learn” or

“smart” button on the garage door opener motor.

■Programs stored in the HomeLink^® memory

● The registered codes are not erased even if the 12-volt battery cable is dis-

connected.

● If learning failed when registering a different code to a HomeLink^® button

that already has a code registered to it, the already registered code is not

erased.

■ Before programming

● Install a new battery in the transmitter.

● The battery side of the transmitter must be pointed away from the Home-

Link^®.

WARNING

■When programming a garage door or other remote control device

The garage door may operate, so ensure people and objects are out of dan-

ger to prevent potential harm.

■ Conforming to federal safety standards

Do not use the HomeLink^® Compatible Transceiver with any garage door

opener or device that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by

federal safety standards.

This includes any garage door that cannot detect an obstruction object. A

door or device without these features increases the risk of death or serious

injury.

Never allow a child to operate or play with the HomeLink^® buttons.

6-1. Maintenance and care

405

■ Wheels and wheel ornaments

● Remove any dirt immediately by using a neutral detergent.

● Wash detergent off with water immediately after use.

● To protect the paint from damage, make sure to observe the following pre-

cautions.

• Do not use acidic, alkaline or abrasive detergent

• Do not use hard brushes

• Do not use detergent on the wheels when they are hot, such as after driv-

ing or parking in hot weather

■ Brake pads and calipers

Rust may form if the vehicle is parked with wet brake pads or disc rotors,

causing them to stick. Before parking the vehicle after it is washed, drive

slowly and apply the brakes several times to dry the parts.

■Bumpers and side moldings

Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.

■ Plated portions

If dirt cannot be remove, clean the parts as follows:

● Use a soft cloth dampened with an approximately 5% solution of neutral

detergent and water to clean the dirt off.

● Wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth to remove any remaining moisture.

● To remove oily deposits, use alcohol wet wipes or a similar product.

■ Notes for a smart key system (if equipped)

6

If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective

range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In this case, follow the fol-

lowing correction procedures to wash the vehicle:

• Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from the vehi-

cle. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)

• Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart key sys-

tem. (P. 122)

WARNING

■ When washing the vehicle

Do not apply water to the inside of the engine compartment. Doing so may

cause the electrical components etc. to catch fire.

■ Precautions regarding the exhaust pipe

Exhaust gases cause the exhaust pipe to become quite hot.

When washing the vehicle, be careful not to touch the pipe until it has

cooled sufficiently, as touching hot exhaust pipe can cause burns.

406

6-1. Maintenance and care

NOTICE

■ To prevent paint deterioration and corrosion on the body and compo-

nents (aluminum wheels etc.)

● Wash the vehicle immediately in the following cases:

• After driving near the sea coast

• After driving on salted roads

• If coal tar or tree sap is present on the paint surface

• If dead insects, insect droppings or bird droppings are present on the

paint surface

• After driving in an area contaminated with soot, oily smoke, mine dust,

iron powder or chemical substances

• If the vehicle becomes heavily soiled with dust or mud

• If liquids such as benzene and gasoline are spilled on the paint surface

● If the paint is chipped or scratched, have it repaired immediately.

● To prevent the wheels from corroding, remove any dirt and store in a place

with low humidity when storing the wheels.

■ Cleaning the exterior lights

● Wash carefully. Do not use organic substances or scrub with a hard brush.

This may damage the surfaces of the lights.

● Do not apply wax to the surfaces of the lights.

Wax may cause damage to the lenses.
