insert it slowly and fully. Make sure that the end of the funnel goes down
along with the filler pipe.
5. Fill the tank with fuel from the
portable fuel container. Pour fuel

Smart Entry System Battery Strength

If the battery life in your remote transmitter is weak, a message appears in the
driver information interface with information on how to start the engine.
1. Touch the back of the remote
transmitter to the ENGINE START/STOP
button while the indicator is flashing.
2. With the brake pedal or clutch pedal
pressed, press the ENGINE START/
STOP button within 10 seconds.
When you carry the remote transmitter (for
example, in a pocket or purse) and it is
outside the vehicle and within range (about 32 inches or 80 cm), you can lock or
unlock the doors and the trunk without handling the transmitter.

Shift Lever Does Not Move

you cannot move the shift lever out of Park (P).

switch.
