For driving or starting the vehicle on snowy
roads or slippery areas, push the SNOW mode
switch and indicator light

on the switch will
illuminate. When the SNOW mode is activated,
engine output is controlled to avoid wheel spin.The vehicle should be driven with the Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) System ON for most
driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
system reduces the engine output to reduce
wheel spin. The engine speed will be reduced
even if the accelerator is depressed to the floor.
If maximum engine power is needed to free a
stuck vehicle, turn the VDC system off.
To cancel the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
System, push the VDC OFF switch. The
indicator light will come on.
Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the
engine to turn ON the system. See “Vehicle

until ratcheting clicks, more
than twice, after refueling.
Put the fuel-filler cap on the cap holder while
refueling.WARNING

Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-tions. You could be burned or seri-
ously injured if it is misused or mis-
handled. Always stop the engine and
do not smoke or allow open flames
or sparks near the vehicle when refu-
eling.

Fuel may be under pressure. Turn the
cap a third of a turn, and wait for any
hissing sound to stop to prevent fuel
from spraying out and possible per-
sonal injury. Then remove the cap.

Do not attempt to top off the fuel
tank after the fuel pump nozzle shuts
off automatically.
Continued refueling may cause fuel
overflow, resulting in fuel spray and
possibly a fire.

Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has
a built-in safety valve needed for
proper operation of the fuel system
and emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious
malfunction and possible injury. It
could also cause the
