Fuel Tank Capacity– Your vehicle’s fuel tank can accommodate 28 gallons (106L) of
gasoline. Your vehicle is designed to use "Regular" unleaded gasoline with a pump (R+M)/2
octane rating of 87 for optimum performance. The use of gasoline with lower octane
ratings may degrade performance.
Tire Pressure– Your tire pressure is properly set at the dealership according to the
recommended specifications found on the Certification Label located on the front door
latch pillar on the driver’s side. Please check your tire pressure during routine maintenance
and seasonal changes and when the Tire Pressure Monitoring System warning indicator (ifequipped)is illuminated.
Warning:Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle handling
and can fail suddenly, possibly resulting in loss of vehicle control. See “Additional Features”
on reverse side for more information.
Fuses– If electrical components in the vehicle are not working, a fuse may have blown. For
more information about changing a fuse, please consult your Owner’s Guide.

quarter trim panel, near the liftgate. For complete details on resetting the switch, please
