Do not attempt to start the engine by pushing the
vehicle.
CAUTION:
. Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)/
Manual Transmission (MT) model cannot be
started by pushing. Attempting to do so may
cause damage to the transmission.
. Three-way catalyst equipped model should
not be started by pushing. Attempting to do
so may cause damage to the three-way
catalyst.
. Never try to start the engine by towing.
When the engine starts, the forward surge
could cause the vehicle to collide with the
towing vehicle.
. Stop/Start System or Idling Stop System
equipped model cannot be started by push-
ing the vehicle.
WARNING:
. Never continue driving if your vehicle over-
heats. Doing so could cause a vehicle fire.
. Never open the hood if steam is coming out.
. Never remove the radiator or coolant reser-
voir cap while the engine is hot. If the
radiator or coolant reservoir cap is removed
when the engine is hot, pressurized hot
water will spurt out and possibly cause
burning, scalding or serious injury.
. If steam or coolant is coming from the
engine, stand clear of the vehicle to prevent
getting burned.
. The engine cooling fan can start at any time
when the coolant temperature exceeds pre-
set degrees.
. Be careful not to allow your hands, hair,
jewelry or clothing to come into contact with,
or to get caught in the cooling fan or drive
belts.
If your vehicle is overheating (indicated by the high
temperature indicator), or if you feel a lack of engine
power, detect unusual noise, etc., take the following
steps:
1. Safely move the vehicle off the road away from
traffic.
2. Turn on the hazard indicator flasher lights.
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) model:
Move the shift lever to the “P” (Park) position.
Manual Transmission (MT) model: Move the shift
lever to the “N” (Neutral) position.
DO NOT STOP THE ENGINE.
5. Open all the windows.
6. Turn off the air conditioner. Move the temperature
control to maximum hot and the fan control to high
speed.
7. Get out from the vehicle.
8. Visually inspect and listen for steam or coolant
escaping from the radiator before opening the
hood. Wait until no steam or coolant can be seen
before proceeding.
9. Open the engine hood.
10. Visually inspect if the cooling fan is running.
11. Visually inspect the radiator and radiator hoses for
leakage.
If the cooling fan is not running or the coolant is
leaking, stop the engine.
12. After the engine cools down, check the coolant
level in the reservoir with the engine running. Do
not open the radiator cap.
13. Add coolant to the reservoir if necessary.
