Getting to Know Your Vibe
10
Reverse Gear Alert Signal
To ensure that First and Reverse gears
on 6-speed manual transaxle-equipped
models are not confused, a beeping sig-
nal alerts the driver when the transaxle
is placed into Reverse gear.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
EVAP Leak Detection Pump
Your Vibe is equipped with a vacuum
pump for the vehicle's fuel evaporation
system. This pump performs a fuel
evaporation leakage test approximately
five hours after the engine is turned off.
You may hear a sound coming from
underneath the rear cargo compartment
for several minutes. The noise is normal
and does not signify a malfunction.
Auxiliary Power Outlets
To use the auxiliary power outlets on the
instrument panel, place the ignition key
in the ACC (Accessory) or ON position
to supply the necessary power. This
feature reduces the chances of encoun-
tering a weak or dead battery.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
The DRL safety feature illuminates the
headlamps at a reduced intensity during
the day to make the front of the vehicle
more visible to others. This feature
can be of particular help in the short
periods just after dawn and shortly
before sunset. The DRL illuminates only
the headlamps — not the taillamps or
side-marker lamps.
See Section 3 of your Owner Manual.
Note: DRL does not activate if the park-
ing brake is engaged prior to turning the
ignition on.
Rear Cargo Track Tie-Downs
At vehicle delivery, four cargo tie-downs
and a corresponding installation diagram
were provided under the rear cargo floor
panel.
See Section 2 of your Owner Manual.
