AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:Always set the parking brake fully and make sure
the gearshift is latched in position P. Turn the ignition off and
remove the key whenever you leave your vehicle.
Your vehicle has been designed to improve fuel economy by reducing
fuel usage while coasting or decelerating. When you take your foot off
the accelerator pedal and the vehicle begins to slow down, the torque
converter clutch locks up and aggressively shuts off fuel flow to the
engine while decelerating. This fuel economy benefit may be perceived
as a light to medium braking sensation when removing your foot from
the accelerator pedal.
Position P
This position locks the transmission and prevents
the front wheels from turning.
To put your vehicle in gear:
•Press the brake pedal.
•Move the gearshift lever into the desired gear.
To put your vehicle in position P:
•Come to a complete stop.
•Move the gearshift lever and securely latch it in position P.
Position R
With the gearshift lever in position R, the vehicle will move backward.
Always come to a complete stop before shifting into and out of position R.
Position N
With the gearshift lever in position N, the vehicle can be started and is
free to roll. Hold the brake pedal down while in this position.
Position D with overdrive
The normal driving position for the best fuel economy. The transmission
operates in gears one through six. The automatic transmission shift
strategy has the ability to detect hilly terrain or mountainous areas and
will provide a limited amount of grade assist features automatically.

7. Put the jack in the jack notch
next to the tire you are changing.
Turn the jack handle clockwise until
the wheel is completely off the
ground.
8. Remove the lug nuts with the lug
wrench.
9. Replace the flat tire with the
spare tire, making sure the valve
stem is facing outward. Reinstall lug
nuts until the wheel is snug against the hub. Do not fully tighten the lug
nuts until the wheel has been lowered.
If you are using the temporary tire, the lug nut washers will not appear
to be flush with the rim. This is normal only when using the temporary
spare tire.
10. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
11. Remove the jack and fully tighten the
lug nuts in the order shown. SeeWheel Lug
Nut Torque Specificationslater in this
chapter for the proper lug nut torque
specification.
12. Put flat tire, wheel ornament, jack and
lug wrench away. Make sure the jack is
fastened so it does not rattle when you
drive.
13. Unblock the wheel.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications
WARNING:When a wheel is installed, always remove any
corrosion, dirt or foreign materials present on the mounting
surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure that any fasteners that
attach the rotor to the hub are secured so they do not interfere with
the mounting surfaces of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct
metal-to-metal contact at the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off while the vehicle is in
motion, resulting in loss of control.
Retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque within 100 miles
(160 kilometers) after any wheel disturbance (such as rotation, flat tire,
wheel removal).
