When to Check and Change Automatic
Transmission Fluid
It is usually not necessary to check the transmission
fluid level. The only reason for fluid loss is a
transmission leak or overheating the transmission.
If you suspect a small leak, then use the following
checking procedures to check the fluid level. However,
if there is a large leak, then it may be necessary to have
the vehicle towed to a dealer/retailer service department
and have it repaired before driving the vehicle further.
Notice: Use of the incorrect automatic transmission
fluid may damage the vehicle, and the damages may
not be covered by the vehicle's warranty. Always
use the automatic transmission fluid listed in
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 7‑2.
Change the fluid and filter at the intervals listed in the
Maintenance Schedule. See Scheduled Maintenance in
the owner manual. Be sure to use the transmission fluid
listed in Recommended Fluids and Lubricants
on
page 7‑2.

Turn the DMCM coolant surge tank pressure cap
slowly counterclockwise (left) about one full turn.
Wait 30 seconds.
2. Then keep turning the DMCM coolant surge tankpressure cap slowly, and remove it.
3. Add the pre‐mixed DEX‐COOL™, available at your dealer/retailer, to the DMCM coolant surge tank
until the level reaches the FULL COLD mark.
4. Turn the ignition to ON/RUN without starting the engine. The hybrid cooling pumps will run and any
trapped air will purge to the surge tank. 5. Add the pre‐mixed DEX‐COOL™, available at your
dealer/retailer, until the coolant level is maintained
at the FULL COLD mark. This should take no
longer than two minutes of hybrid cooling pump
operation.
If the level cannot be kept at the FULL COLD
level, your vehicle may need service. See your
dealer/retailer.
6. Then replace the
DMCM coolant surge
tank pressure cap.
Be sure the pressure
cap is hand-tight and
fully seated.
Notice: Using tap water, cooling system sealers or
conditioners in an attempt to stop coolant leaks can
damage the DMCM and engine cooling systems.
Never use tap water, cooling system sealers or
conditioners in your cooling system.

Electrical System
High Voltage Devices and Wiring
{WARNING:
Exposure to high voltage can cause shock, burns,
and even death. The high voltage systems in your
vehicle can only be serviced by technicians with
special training.
High voltage devices are identified by labels.
Do not remove, open, take apart, or modify
these devices. High voltage cable or wiring has
orange covering. Do not probe, tamper with, cut,
or modify high voltage cable or wiring.

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers
and fusible thermal links. This greatly reduces the
chance of fires caused by electrical problems.
Be sure you replace a bad fuse with a new one of the
identical size and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and do not
have a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the
same amperage. Just pick some feature of the vehicle
that you can get along without, like the radio or cigarette
lighter, and use its fuse, if it is the correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
The vehicle also has a special fuse in the battery box
for the 300-volt batteries. If this fuse has failed and
needs to be replaced, the vehicle will be disabled and
you will need to have the vehicle repaired by your
dealer/retailer. Do not attempt to self-service this fuse.
Underhood Fuse Block
Hybrid Auxiliary Underhood Fuse Block
The hybrid underhood fuse block is located in the
engine compartment near the front of the vehicle. Lift
the cover for access to the fuse/relay block. SeeEngine
Compartment Overview
on page 6‑4for more
information on its location. For more information on the
main underhood fuse block, see “Underhood Fuse
Block” in the owner manual.

8. Proceed to the driver side rear tire, and repeat theprocedure in Step 5. The horn sounds two times to
indicate the sensor identification code has been
matched to the driver side rear tire, and the TPMS
sensor matching process is no longer active.
The TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE message on the
DIC display screen goes off.
9. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK/OFF.
10. Set all four tires to the recommended air pressure level as indicated on the Tire and Loading
Information label.
11. Put the valve caps back on the valve stems.
Tire Inspection and Rotation
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles
(8 000 to 13 000 km).
Any time you notice unusual wear, rotate your tires as
soon as possible and check wheel alignment. Also
check for damaged tires or wheels. See “When It Is
Time for New Tires” and“Wheel Replacement” in the
Index of the owner manual for more information.
The purpose of regular rotation is to achieve more
uniform wear for all tires on the vehicle. The first
rotation is the most important. See “Scheduled
Maintenance” in the Index of the owner manual.
When rotating your tires, always use the correct rotation
pattern shown here.
After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and
rear inflation pressures as shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. See “Loading Your Vehicle”
in the Index of the owner manual for an example of the
label and its location on your vehicle.
The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) sensors will
need to be reset after a tire rotation. See “TPMS Sensor
Identification Codes” under“Tire Pressure Monitor
Operation”.
Make certain that all wheel nuts are properly tightened.
See “Wheel Nut Torque” under“Capacities and
Specifications” in the Index of the owner manual.

Always do a safety check first. SeeIf a Tire Goes Flaton page 6‑34.
1. Remove the tire sealant and compressor kit from its storage location. See Tire Sealant and
Compressor Kit Storage on page 6‑55.
Make sure the on/off button (D) is in the off (O)
position.
2. Unwrap the sealant/air hose (F) and the power plug (C).
3. Place the kit on the ground. Make sure the tire valve stem is positioned close to
the ground so the hose will reach it.
4. Remove the valve stem cap from the flat tire by turning it counterclockwise.
5. Attach the sealant/air hose (F) onto the tire valve stem. Turn it clockwise until it is tight. 6. Plug the power plug (C) into the accessory power
outlet in the vehicle. Unplug all items from other
accessory power outlets. See “Accessory Power
Outlet(s) in the owner manual.”
If the vehicle has an accessory power outlet,
do not use the cigarette lighter.
If the vehicle only has a cigarette lighter, use the
cigarette lighter.
Do not pinch the power plug cord in the door or
window.
7. Start the vehicle. The vehicle must be running while using the air compressor.
8. Press the on/off (D) button to turn the tire sealant and compressor kit on.
The compressor will inject sealant and air into
the tire.
The pressure gage (E) will initially show a high
pressure while the compressor pushes the sealant
into the tire. Once the sealant is completely
dispersed into the tire, the pressure will quickly
drop and start to rise again as the tire inflates with
air only.

9. Inflate the tire to the recommended inflationpressure using the pressure gage (E).
The recommended inflation pressure can be
found on the Tire and Loading Information label.
See Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 6‑28.
The pressure gage (E) may read higher than the
actual tire pressure while the compressor is on.
Turn the compressor off to get an accurate
pressure reading. The compressor may be turned
on/off until the correct pressure is reached.
Notice: If the recommended pressure cannot be
reached after approximately 25 minutes, the vehicle
should not be driven farther. The tire is too severely
damaged and the tire sealant and compressor kit
cannot inflate the tire. Remove the power plug from
the accessory power outlet and unscrew the
inflating hose from the tire valve. See “Roadside
Assistance Program” in the owner manual. 10. Press the on/off button (D) to turn the tire sealant
and compressor kit off.
The tire is not sealed and will continue to
leak air until the vehicle is driven and the
sealant is distributed in the tire, therefore,
Steps 11 through 17 must be done immediately
after Step 10.
Be careful while handling the tire sealant and
compressor kit as it could be warm after usage.
11. Unplug the power plug (C) from the accessory power outlet in the vehicle.
12. Turn the sealant/air hose (F) counterclockwise to remove it from the tire valve stem.
13. Replace the tire valve stem cap.
14. Replace the sealant/air hose (F), and the power plug (C) back in their original location.
