Your vehicle has a fuel tank capacity of 12.4 gallons (47L). Use
only “Regular” gasoline with an octane rating of 87. Do not use E85 fuels because your vehicle was not designed to run on fuels with more than 10% ethanol.
Tire preSSureThe recommended specifications are on
the Safety Compliance Certification Label
or Tire Label located on the B-Pillar or the
edge of the driver’s door. As an added

SySTem
With this system, you simply open the
fuel filler door, insert the nozzle and
begin fueling. Wait five seconds from the
time the refueling nozzle is
shut-off until the nozzle is pulled back
out of the fill pipe to allow residual fuel
in the nozzle to drain into the tank.
This system is self-sealing and therefore
protected against dust, dirt, water, snow
and ice. To use a portable fuel container,
slowly insert the fuel funnel (located
in the spare tire compartment in your
trunk), and pour the fuel into the funnel.
When done, clean the funnel or properly
dispose of it. Extra funnels can be
purchased from your authorized dealer.
Do not use aftermarket funnels as they
will not work with the Easy Fuel
® system
and may cause damage. Do not overfill
the fuel tank.
HiLL STAr T ASSiST
Hill start assist (HSA) makes it easier to
pull away when your vehicle is parked
on a slope without using a parking
brake. When active, this feature allows
your vehicle to remain stationary on a
slope for up to two to three seconds
after you release the brake pedal thereby
giving you time to move your foot to the
accelerator and pull away. This feature
is activated automatically if the sensors
detect that the vehicle is on a slope.
fueL ecoNomy TipS
Driving style can affect fuel usage.
With these tips you may be able to
change a number of variables and
improve your fuel economy.
o Drive sensibly.
o Keep your tires properly inflated.
o Use cruise control when you can.
o Don’t carry more than you need.
You will lose up to 1% in fuel economy
per 100 lb (45 kg).
o Observe the speed limit. Speeds
over 70 mph (112 km/h) decrease
your overall fuel economy.
o Ensure that your car is
properly maintained.
o Check and replace your air
filter regularly.
o Use the recommended grade
of motor oil.
o Avoid excessive idling.
