Warranty Information

ITEM NO.1:
D.C.C. FUSE INSTALLATION DURING PDS

Introduction

The D.C.C. fuse has been removed at the assembly plant to reduce parasitic current draw during transit and storage.

Installation Procedure





The removed D.C.C. fuse (30 A) is stored in the blank space of the junction block in the engine compartment. The D.C.C. fuse must be reinstalled to the original location during Pre-Delivery Service (PDS) in the dealership as shown.

NOTE

^ Removing the D.C.C. fuse cuts oft power sources relating to the Dome, ECU-B and RAD No.1 fuses.

^ If the vehicle is stored in the dealership for a long period of time after PDS, disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent battery discharge. Refer to TSB PG017-02 for battery maintenance information.

ITEM NO.2:
FRONT LICENSE PLATE MOUNTING BRACKET AND LICENSE PLATE INSTALLATION

Introduction

The front license plate mounting bracket and two self-tapping screws are included in the luggage compartment at the assembly plant.

Installation Procedure





1. Insert the front license plate into the front license plate mounting bracket.

2. Attach the hook of the front license plate mounting bracket to the upper lip of the air intake and rotate bracket upwards. Align center notch on the front license plate mounting bracket with the center line of the front bumper and hold in place.

NOTE

The mounting bracket should snap securely into the upper lip of the air intake.

3. Align the installation holes on the front license plate mounting bracket and front license plate with the dimples on the front bumper.

4. Using the two self-tapping screws install the front license plate and front license plate mounting bracket by directly screwing the self-tapping screws into the dimples.

NOTE

^ Do NOT pre-drill holes in the dimples.

^ Do NOT overtighten the self-tapping screws.





ITEM NO. 3:
INITIALIZATION OF TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM

Introduction

While the vehicle is in motion the tire pressure warning system monitors wheel speed signals that are output by the speed sensors for the brake control system. The system informs the driver if it detects low tire pressure in one or more of the tires.

To operate the tire pressure warning system under normal conditions the ECU must be initialized with tires at normal tire pressure conditions.

Tire pressure is set high at the assembly plant for transport and storage to prevent tire flat spots. Therefore after adjusting all tires to the standard air pressure please perform initialization of the ECU at your dealership prior to delivery to customers.

Initialization Procedure





1. Adjust all tires to the standard air pressure.





2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position with the vehicle stopped. Check that the low tire pressure warning light blinks (twice per second).





3. Push and hold the tire pressure warning reset switch for 3 seconds until the low tire pressure warning light blinks 3 times (once per two seconds). After that make sure that the tire pressure warning light goes off.

NOTE

If the low tire pressure warning light doesn't blink, release the tire pressure warning switch and press it again.

Reference:

While performing the system initialization the tire pressure will not be monitored.

After the customer drives the vehicle under normal conditions for 30 to 60 minutes initialization of the ECU will be complete and the system will begin monitoring tire pressure.

NOTE

If the low tire pressure warning light begins to blink (twice a second) while driving, return to step 2.

ITEM NO. 4:
INITIALIZATION OF DRIVER'S DOOR POWER WINDOW

Introduction

If the battery terminal has been disconnected, the "one-touch open and close" and "jam protection" functions of the driver's door power window will be inoperative due to loss of the driver's door power window position memory stored in the microcomputer. Therefore, please initialize the driver's door power window after reconnecting the battery terminal.

Initialization Procedure





1. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position. At this time, the power window switch for the driver's door window should be blinking.

2. Push down and hold the driver's door power window switch to completely open the window.





3. Pull and hold up the driver's door power window switch until the window closes. Continue holding the switch for approximately one second until the switch changes from blinking to a constant illumination.

4. Check for proper operation of the "One-touch open and close" by fully pushing the switch "DOWN" once and fully pulling the switch "UP" once.

NOTE

Jam protection function becomes effective through the above initialization procedure.

ITEM NO. 5:
INITIALIZATION OF MOON ROOF

Introduction

If the battery terminal has been disconnected, the "one-touch tilt up and down," "one-touch slide open and close" and 'lam protection" functions of the Moon Roof will be inoperative due to loss of the moon roof position memory stored in the microcomputer. Therefore, please initialize the moon roof after reconnecting the battery terminal.

Initialization Procedure





1. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

2. Push and hold the moon roof switch to the "TILT- UP" side until the moon roof tilts all the way up and then tilts down slightly (approximately 10 mm at rear end).

3. Check for proper operation of the "One-touch slide open and close" and "One-touch tilt up and down" functions by pushing the switch briefly to the "SLIDE OPEN" and "TILT UP" positions.

NOTE

Jam protection function becomes effective through the above initialization procedure.

ITEM NO. 6:
INITIAL CALIBRATION OF COMPASS

Introduction

The compass indicates the direction that the vehicle is heading by detecting the direction and strength of the earth's magnetic field and processing this data using the compass sensor and microcomputer.

Detection of the direction and strength of the earth's magnetic field varies according to the area in which the vehicle is used and is affected by the residual magnetism of the vehicle. For this reason, the geographic direction displayed may also deviate from the direction determined by the earth's magnetic field according to the area in which the vehicle is used.





Therefore, please perform the initial calibration of the compass in your dealership prior to delivery to customers.

Compass Calibration Procedure





1. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position and check that the direction (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW) appears on the compass display.

NOTE

Pushing the "COMP" switch turns on or off the compass display.





2. Push the "COMP" switch for approximately 3 seconds until the zone number (1 - 15) appears on the display. Then push the switch to select the number of the zone where the vehicle is located.





See the map for zone reference.

3. Check that the direction appears several seconds after adjustment.





4. Start the engine and push the switch for about 6 seconds until "C" appears on the display.





5. Drive the vehicle slowly at 5 mph, or less, in a circle until the direction is displayed. If there is not enough space to drive in a circle, drive around the block until the direction is displayed.





After driving in 1 to 3 circles in the above method, calibration is complete with the direction shown on the display.

NOTE

^ Do not perform calibration of the compass in a place where the earth's magnetic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields (underground parking, under a steel tower, between buildings, roof parking, near a railroad crossing, near a large vehicle, etc.)

^ During calibration, do not operate electric systems (moon roof, power windows, etc.) as they may interfere with the calibration.
