how do i enable/disable the seatbelt reminder
buzzer noise using the trip meter button?
to enable/disable that annoying seatbelt reminder buzzer, follow these steps
using the trip meter button, but make sure you still buckle up!:
|
step 1
|
turn the key to the 'on' position. using the trip meter button, toggle the
lcd until 'ODO' is displayed. |
|
step 2
|
turn the key off. turn the key back to the 'on' position. within six seconds
of doing so, press and hold the trip meter button for ten seconds. after ten
seconds, buckle the driver's side seatbelt. |
|
step 3
|
the buzzer by default is set to on. once you've held the trip meter button
for ten seconds and then buckled the driver's side seatbelt, the lcd will
then disply 'b-OFF', telling you that the buzzer is now turned off. you can
now let go of the trip meter button. if pressed again in this mode, you will
set the buzzer back to on, 'b-ON'. |
|
*note*
|
if the battery or combination meter is disconnected, you will have to follow
the procedure again. |
how do i clear the 'maintenance required'/oil
change light using the trip meter button?
step 1 turn the key to the 'on' position. using the trip meter button, toggle
the lcd until 'ODO' is displayed.
step 2 turn the key off. now, push and hold the trip meter button. while
holding the trip meter button, turn the key to 'on'.
step 3 while you continue to hold the trip meter button, you will see on the
lcd disply five (5) small dashes and they will begin to 'count down' rather
quickly.
step 4 continue holding the trip meter button and once all the dashes have
been cleared, your lcd will display six zeros (000000) - release the trip meter
button now - and then the lcd will display 'ODO' and your current mileage. at
this time, your 'maintenance required'/oil change light has been reset.

i disconnected my battery and now
my power windows and power moonroof aren't working properly. what's wrong?
the power window system and power moonroof actually memorize their initial
positon and if you disconnect the battery or if you burn out a fuse or
disconnect just the right switch connector, they lose their memory and they need
to be reset. when this happens, the led's located in the power window switches
will blink when you turn on the car, the power windows 'one-touch' feature will
no longer work and the power moonroof will not entirely open. you need to to
reset them by following these procedures:
|
resetting the power windows
|
resetting the power moon roof
|
|
step 1
|
turn the key in the ignition to 'on'. |
step 1
|
turn the key in the ignition to 'on'. |
|
step 2
|
on the driver's side control, push down (do not use 'one-touch' down) the
power window switch for the driver's side window and lower the window
halfway. |
step 2
|
keep pressing the sliding roof switch to the close side until the center
glass panel is fully closed. |
|
step 3
|
pull up (do not use 'one-touch' up) the power window switch until the window
closes and hold the switch for *at least* one second. |
step 3
|
if the switch remains pressed for approximately two more seconds after the
panel is fully closed, the sliding roof ECU memorizes the fully closed
position. |
|
step 4
|
repeat these steps for the passenger side window on the passenger door
window control. the windows should now open and close like they should. |
step 4
|
the center panel glass returns in the open direction a little and informs
that initialization is complete. |
my tire pressure light is on and i know my tires
are correctly inflated. how do i re-initialize the tire pressure warning system?
the tire pressure monitor detects any changes in the tire inflation pressure.
therefore, it must initialize and store it in its memory if the tires or wheels
have been replaced or the tires have been rotated. you can re-initialize the
system by following these steps:
|
step 1
|
check and make sure that your tires are inflated to the correct pressure
|
|
step 2
|
turn the ignition switch to the ON position. If the low tire pressure
warning light comes on, push and hold the tire pressure warning reset
switch (in the glove box) until the warning light turns off and then
release the switch.
|
|
step 3
|
now press and hold the tire pressure warning reset switch until the low
tire pressure warning light blinks three times.
|
|
step 4
|
initialization is *not* completed until driving at the
vehicle speed of 19 mph or over for more than one hour. the tire pressure
monitoring starts when initialization is completed. |
