Automatic Door Lock and
Unlock Features
Your vehicle is equipped with fea-
tures that will automatically lock or
unlock your vehicle based on set-
tings you select in the LCD cluster
display.
Auto LOCK - Enable on Speed
When this feature is set in the LCD
cluster display, all the doors will be
locked automatically when the vehi-
cle exceeds 9 mph (15 km/h).
Auto LOCK - Enable on Shift(Automatic transmission vehicle)
When this feature is set in the LCD
cluster display, all the doors will be
locked automatically when the vehi-
cle is shifted out of P (Park) while the
engine is running.
Always secure your vehicle.
Leaving your vehicle unlocked
increases the potential risk to
you or others from someone
hiding in your vehicle.
To secure your vehicle, while
depressing the brake pedal, shift
the vehicle to P (Park, for auto-
matic transmission) or neutral
(for manual transmission), apply
the parking brake, and press the
Engine Start/Stop button to the
OFF position, close all windows,
lock all doors, and always take
the Smart Key with you.
WARNING
If you stay in the vehicle for a
long time while the weather is
very hot or cold, there are risks
of injuries or danger to life. Do
not lock the vehicle from the
outside when someone is in the
vehicle.
WARNING
Opening a door when something
is approaching may cause dam-
age or injury. Be careful when
opening doors and watch for
vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles
or pedestrians approaching the
vehicle in the path of the door.
WARNING

Convenient features of your vehicle
Closing the fuel filler door
1. To install the fuel tank cap, turn itclockwise until it "clicks" one time.
2. Close the fuel filler door until it is latched securely.Do not use cellular phones
while refueling. Electric cur-
rent and/or electronic interfer-
ence from cellular phones can
potentially ignite fuel vapors
and cause a fire.
Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refuel-
ing. You can generate a build-
up of static electricity by touch-
ing, rubbing or sliding against
any item or fabric capable of
producing static electricity.
Static electricity discharge can
ignite fuel vapors causing a
fire. If you must re-enter the
vehicle, you should once again
eliminate potentially danger-
ous static electricity discharge
by touching a metal part of the
vehicle, away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle or other gasoline
source, with your bare hand.
When using an approved
portable fuel container, be
sure to place the container on
the ground prior to refueling.
Static electricity discharge
from the container can ignite
fuel vapors causing a fire.
Gasoline is highly flammable
and explosive. Failure to follow
these guidelines may result in
SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
Read and follow all warnings
posted at the gas station.
Before refueling, note the
location of the Emergency
Gasoline Shut-Off, if available,
at the gas station.
Before touching the fuel noz-
zle, you should eliminate the
potential build-up of static
electricity by touching a metal
part of the vehicle, a safe dis-
tance away from the fuel filler
neck, nozzle, or other gas
source, with your bare hand.
WARNING
Once refueling has begun,
contact between your bare
hand and the vehicle should
be maintained until the filling
is complete.
Use only approved portable
plastic fuel containers designed
to carry and store gasoline.
When refueling, always shift
the vehicle to P (Park, for
automatic transmission) or
neutral (for manual transmis-
sion), apply the parking brake,
and press the Engine
Start/Stop button to the OFF
position. Sparks produced by
electrical components related
to the engine can ignite fuel
vapors causing a fire.
Do not use matches or a
lighter and do not smoke or
leave a lit cigarette in your
vehicle while at a gas station,
especially during refueling.

Range
The range is the estimated dis-tance the vehicle can be driven
with the remaining fuel.
If the estimated distance is below 1 mi. (1 km), the trip computer will
display "---" as range.
Information
• If the vehicle is not on level groundor the battery power has been inter-
rupted, the range function may not
operate correctly.
• The range may differ from the actu- al driving distance as it is only an
estimate of the available driving
range for the vehicle and driving
conditions.
• The trip computer may not register additional fuel if less than 1.6 gallon
(6 liters) of fuel are added to the
vehicle.
• The range may vary significantly based on driving conditions, driving
habits, and condition of the vehicle.
