The fuel filler opening is designed to accept only service station filler nozzles for
refueling. Use of smaller diameter tubes (e.g., to siphon fuel for other uses) or
other non-service station devices can damage the area in and around the filler
opening.
Refueling from a Portable Fuel Container If you need to refuel your vehicle from a portable fuel container, use the funnel
provided with your vehicle.
1.
Turn off the
engine.
2.
Pr
ess the fuel fill door release button. The fuel
fill door opens.
3.
T

(see page 107).
4.
R
emove the funnel from the case.
5.
Place the
end of the funnel on the lower part
of filler opening, then insert it slowly and fully.
Make sure that the end of the funnel goes down
along with the filler pipe.
6.
Fill
the tank with fuel from the portable fuel
container. Pour fuel carefully so you do not spill
any.
7.
R
emove the funnel from the filler neck. Wipe up
any fuel from the funnel before storing it.
8.
Shut
the fuel fill door by hand.
Funnel
Do not insert the nozzle of a portable fuel container or any funnel other than the
one provided with your vehicle. Doing so can damage the fuel system.
Do not try to pry open or push open the sealed fuel tank with foreign objects.
This can damage the fuel system and its seal.
NOTICE
Improving Fuel Economy and Reducing CO2
Achieving fuel economy and reducing CO
2 emissions is dependent on several
factors, including driving conditions, load weight, idling time, driving habits, and
vehicle condition. Depending on these and other factors, you may not achieve
the rated fuel economy of this vehicle.

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:
•
Pr
ess and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for
two seconds, or
•
Firml
y press the ENGINE START/STOP button two
times.
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.
Emergency Towing
Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.
All models
Flat bed equipment: The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a truck. This is
the best way to transport your vehicle.
2WD models
Wheel lift equipment: The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the front
tires and lift them off the ground. The rear tires remain on the ground. This is an
acceptable way to tow your vehicle.
NOTICE
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
Overheating
Signs your engine is overheating: •
The
temperature gauge needle is at the H mark
•
The engine suddenl
y loses power
•
Steam
or spray comes out from under the hood
•
The message
Engine Temperature Too Hot appears on the display.
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
118).
If steam or spray is present: Turn off the engine
and wait until it subsides. Then, open the hood
(see page 118).
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.
Reserve tank MAX
MIN
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.

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

Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting
Below are some frequently asked questions and troubleshooting items that you
may have about the vehicle.
Q: How do I set the vehicle clock?
A:
For vehicles without navigation, see page 40. For vehicles with navigation, the
time is automatically set using GPS signals.
Q: Why doesn’t the vehicle start when I press the ENGINE START/STOP button?
A: The brake pedal must be pressed to start the engine.
Q: What is the AUTO setting on my headlight lever?
A: When in the AUTO position, the vehicle’s exterior lights will automatically turn
on or off depending on the ambient lighting.
Q: Why won’t the driver’s door unlock when I grab the door handle, even though the
keyless access remote is within range?
A: If you pull the handle too quickly, the system may not have time to confirm the
door is unlocked. Wait to hear a beep to confirm the door is unlocked. If you are
wearing gloves, the system may be slow to respond.
Q: After my battery was disconnected or went dead, the audio system is asking for a
code. Where do I find this?
A: In most cases, you do not need to enter a code. Turn on the vehicle and the audio
system, and press and hold the power button until the system reactivates.
Q: Why can’t I select an item using the interface dial?*
A: To prevent driver distraction, certain items are limited or inoperable while the
vehicle is moving. Use voice commands or pull over to select the items.
Q: Where can I find the vehicle identification number (VIN)?
A: Check the label on the driver’s doorjamb.
Q: Why can’t I operate Pandora through the audio system?
A: Audio may be streaming through Bluetooth® Audio. Make sure Pandora mode
is selected and the phone cable is properly connected to the USB adapter. Some
