is recommended that the air intake

mode be set to outside air mode and

the fan speed to any setting except

off.

■Outside/recirculated air mode

●Setting to the recirculated air

mode temporarily is recom-

from entering the vehicle interior

and helping to cool the vehicle

●Do not place luggage or get

near the vicinity of the tailpipe.

●Normal operations may not be

possible for electronic devices

that require level installation.

●Make sure that the hood is

closed. Do not put your head or

hands anywhere inside the

engine room, as the cooling fan

may operate suddenly. If too

close, hands and clothing

(especially a tie, scarf, etc.) may

get caught in a fan.

●Excluding electronic devices

with waterproof specifications,

do not use in places where it

can be covered by rain or water,

or places with lots of humidity.

●Do not use medical equipment

as the power supply function

may temporarily stop depending

the conditions of the vehicle.

●Do not stop the vehicle near

objects which burn easily.

●Install and use appropriately

related devices to make air sup-

ply and exhaust ventilation pos-

sible in places where ventilation

is bad, such as within garages,

and places where the vehicle is

surrounded (places where snow

accumulates).

NOTICE

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may lead to the

power outlets not operating cor-

rectly or damage to the vehicle or

a connected device.

●Do not use in places where ven-

tilation is bad, such as within

garages where there are no air

supply and exhaust ventilation

devices, and places where the

vehicle is surrounded (places

where snow accumulates, etc.).

malfunction or short circuit.

3 To use the side extender,

place the visor in the side

position, then slide it back-

ward.

●Do not use a multi-point outlet

adapter as doing so may over-

load the power outlet.

WARNING

■When programming a garage

door or other remote control

device

 It is recommended that a new

battery be placed in the

remote control transmitter for

more accurate programming.

The garage door or other device

may operate, so ensure people

and objects are out of danger to

prevent potential harm.

 Garage door opener motors

manufactured after 1995 may

be equipped with rolling code

protection. If this is the case,

you may need a stepladder or

other sturdy, safe device to

reach the “Learn” or “Smart”

button on the garage door

opener motor.

■Conforming to federal safety

standards

®

Do not use the HomeLink com-

patible transceiver with any

garage door opener or device that

lacks safety stop and reverse fea-

tures as required by federal safety

standards.

This includes any garage door

that cannot detect an interfering

object. A door or device without

these features increases the risk

of death or serious injury.
