If the doors are frozen shut, use warm water around the door edges to melt any ice. Do not

NOTICE
n
Interior Checks
Store or secure all items

on board properly.
Do not pile items higher than the seat height.
Do not place anything in the footwells. Make sure to secure the floor mats.
If you have any animals on board, do not let them move freely in the vehicle.
Securely close and lock both doors.
Adjust your seating position, mirrors, and steering wheel properly.
Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
Make sure that the indicators in the instrument panel come on when you start the vehicle,
and go off soon after.
Improper accessories or modifications can affect your vehicle’s handling,
stability, and performance, and cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt
or killed.
Follow all instructions in the vehicle owner’s manual regarding accessories and
modifications.
WARNING
Maximum Load Limit
Carrying too much cargo or improperly storing it can affect your vehicle’s handling, stability,
stopping distance, and tires, and make it unsafe.
The maximum load for your vehicle is 507 lbs (230 kg). See the Tire and Loading Information
label on the driver’s doorjamb. The maximum load in the trunk is 100 lbs (45 kg).
The vehicle maximum load includes the total weight of all occupants, cargo,
accessories, and the tongue load if you are towing a trailer. Below are the steps for
determining the correct load limit:
1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle’s placard.
2.
Determine the combined weight of the driver

and passengers that will be riding in your
vehicle.
3.
Subtract the combined weight of the driver

and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
4.
The resulting figure equals

the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For
example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1,400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb. passengers in
your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1,400 -
750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.)
High Voltage Battery Maintenance
All batteries discharge if not used. For best battery life and capacity, drive your vehicle for at
least 30 minutes, at least once every three months. Try to avoid parking under direct summer
sun. For battery maintenance while storing the vehicle, see page 207.

Brake pedal
n Brake Assist System
During hard or emer
gency braking, the system increases braking force. The brake pedal may
move slightly or make a noise; this is normal. Continue to hold the brake pedal firmly down.
n
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
During har

d or emergency braking, the system rapidly pumps the brakes to prevent wheel
lockup and help you maintain steering control. Do not pump the brake pedal, and continue
to firmly hold it down.
The ABS may not function correctly if you use an incorrect tire type and size.
