How to RefuelYour fuel tank is not equipped with a fuel fill cap. You can insert the filler nozzle
directly into the filler pipe. The tank seals itself again when you pull out the filler
nozzle.
1.

The
fuel fill door is located at the left rear of the
vehicle. Park next to the service pump that is
most accessible, and turn off the engine.
2.

Pr
ess the fuel fill door release button on the
driver’s door. The fuel fill door opens.
3.

Place the
end of the filler nozzle on the lower
part of the filler opening, then insert it slowly
and fully. Make sure that the end of the filler
nozzle goes down along with the filler pipe.
4.

After
filling, wait about 5 seconds before
removing the filler nozzle. Close the fuel fill door
by hand.
Refueling
Use the proper fuel and refueling procedure to ensure the best performance and
safety of your vehicle.
Fuel Information

Overheating
If the temperature gauge needle is at the H mark, the engine suddenly loses power,
or steam or spray comes out from under the hood, your engine is overheating.
1.

Immediatel
y park the vehicle in a safe place. Turn
off all accessories and turn on the hazard warning
lights.
2.

If no steam
or spray is present: Keep the
engine running and open the hood (see page
115).
If steam or spray is present: Turn off the engine
and wait until it subsides. Then, open the hood.
3.

Check that the
cooling fan is operating and stop the engine once the
temperature gauge needle goes down. If the cooling fan is not operating,
immediately stop the engine.

4.


Once
the engine has cooled down, inspect the coolant level and check the
cooling system components for leaks. If the coolant level in the reserve tank
is low, add coolant until it reaches the MAX mark. If there is no coolant in the
reserve tank, make sure the radiator is cool, then cover the radiator cap with a
heavy cloth and open the cap. If necessary, add coolant up to the base of the
filler neck, and put the cap back on.
Once the engine has cooled sufficiently, restart it and check the temperature
gauge. If the temperature needle has gone down, resume driving. If it has not gone
down, contact a dealer for repairs.
Steam and spray from an overheated engine can seriously scald you.
Do not open the hood if steam is coming out.
WARNING
Removing the radiator cap while the engine is hot can cause the coolant to
spray out, seriously scalding you.
Always let the engine and radiator cool down before removing the radiator
cap.
WARNING
Continuing to drive with the temperature gauge needle at the H mark may
damage the engine.
NOTICE
Emergency Engine Stop
The ENGINE START/STOP button may be used to stop the engine due to an
emergency situation even while driving. If you must stop the engine, choose one of
the following operations:
The steering wheel will not lock. The power mode changes to ACCESSORY, unless
the shift lever is in Park, in which case the power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF.
Because turning off the engine also disables the power assist the engine provides to
the steering and braking systems, it will require significantly more physical effort
and time to steer and slow the vehicle. Downshift gears and use both feet on the
brake pedal, if necessary, to slow the vehicle and stop immediately in a safe place.
Do not press the button while driving unless it is absolutely necessary for the
engine to be switched off.
• Press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for two seconds, or
•

Firml
y press the ENGINE START/STOP button two
times.
Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. The
bumpers are not designed to support the vehicle’s weight.
Improper towing such as towing behind a motorhome or other motor vehicle can
damage the transmission.
NOTICE
Emergency Towing
Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.
Flat bed equipment: The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a truck. This is
the only way you can safely transport your vehicle. Any other towing method
will damage the vehicle’s drive system.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Monitors the tire pressure while you are driving. Use the right selector wheel on the
steering wheel to scroll to the tire pressure monitor to see pressure readings for
each tire (see page 26).
If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes significantly low, the low tire pressure
indicator appears with a message in the multi-information display.
What to Do
Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire pressure and adjust the pressure
to the specified level. The specified tire pressure is on a label on the driver’s
doorjamb.
Driving on an extremely underinflated tire can cause it to overheat. An
overheated tire can fail. Always inflate your tires to the specified pressure.
NOTICE
The specific tire
with low pressure
is displayed.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal
Explanation
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped
with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that
illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more
of your tires is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping
ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct
tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator
to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle
that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement
or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.

Setting Up the Jack
1.
Place
the jack under the jacking point closest to
the tire to be changed.
2.

Turn
the end bracket clockwise (as shown in
the image) until the top of the jack contacts
the jacking point. Make sure that the jacking
point tab is resting in the jack notch.
3.

Raise
the vehicle, using the jack handle bar and
the jack handle, until the tire is off the ground.
The following instructions must be followed to use the jack safely:
•

Do not use
the jack with people or luggage in the vehicle.
•

Use
the jack provided in your vehicle. Other jacks may not support the weight
(“load”) or fit the jacking point.
•

Do not use
while the engine is running.
•

Use
only where the ground is firm and level.
•

Use
only at the jacking points.
•

Do not get in
the vehicle while using the jack.
•

Do
not put anything on top of or underneath the jack.
The vehicle can easily roll off the jack, seriously injuring anyone underneath.
Follow the directions for changing a tire exactly, and never get under the
vehicle when it is supported only by the jack.
WARNING
Do not use the jack if it doesn’t work properly. Call your dealer or a professional
towing service.

Inspecting and Changing Fuses
1.
Turn off the
vehicle, including the headlights and
all accessories.
2.

R
emove the fuse box cover.
3.

Check all
fuses inside the combined fuse case in
the engine compartment. If any fuse is blown,
use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the
screw and replace the fuse with a new one.
4.

Inspect
the small fuses in the engine
compartment and the vehicle interior. If there is
a burned out fuse, remove it with the fuse puller
and replace it with a new one.
Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chances
of damaging the electrical system.
