Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)*
Can assist you when there is a possibility of your vehicle colliding wit\
h a vehicle or a
pedestrian detected in front of yours.
The system can give you visual, audible, and tactile alerts when a poten\
tial collision
is determined, and reduce your vehicle speed to help minimize collision \
severity
when a collision is deemed unavoidable.
When a potential collision with a detected oncoming vehicle is determine\
d, a B
rAKe
message appears in the multi-information display
, the head-up warning lights flash,
a beep sounds, and the steering wheel vibrates.
The system activates when:
•
The speed difference between your vehicle and a vehicle or pedestrian de\
tected
in front of you is about 3 mph (5 km/h) and over with a chance of a co\
llision.
•
Your vehicle speed is about 62 mph (100 km/h) or less and there is a ch\
a
nce of a
collision with an oncoming detected vehicle or a pedestrian in front of \
you.
*if equipped
Alert Stages
The system has three alert stages for a possible collision. Depending on\
the
circumstances or CMBS settings, CMBS may not go through all of the stage\
s
before initiating the last stage.
Stage 1:
visual and audible warning, steering wheel vibrations
Stage 2:
visual and audible warning, light brake application
Stage 3:
visual and audible warning, strong brake application
Beep Head-up
warning lights Steering vibrations
Important Safety Reminder
CMBS is designed to reduce the severity of an unavoidable collision. It \
does not
prevent collisions nor stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your responsibility to
operate the brake pedal and steering wheel appropriately according to th\
e driving
conditions.

Overheating
If the temperature gauge needle is at the H mark, the engine suddenly lo\
ses power,
or steam or spray comes out from under the hood, your engine is overheat\
ing.
1.
Immediately park the vehicle in a safe place. Turn
off all accessories and turn on the hazard warning
lights.
2.
If steam or spray is not present: Keep the engine
running and open the hood.
If steam or spray is present: T
urn off the engine and
wait until it subsides. Then, open the hood.
3.
Check that the cooling fan is operating and stop the engine once the tem\
perature
gauge needle goes down. If the cooling fan is not operating, immediately\
stop the
engine.
4.
o
nce the engine has cooled down, inspect the coolant level and check the \
cooling system components for leaks. If the coolant level in the reserve\
t
ank
is low, add coolant until it reaches the MAX mark. If there is no coolant in t\
he
reserve tank, make sure the radiator is cool, then cover the radiator ca\
p with a
heavy cloth and open the cap. If necessary, add coolant up to the base of the
filler neck, and put the cap back on.
once the engine has cooled sufficiently
, restart it and check the temperature gauge.
If the temperature gauge needle has gone down, resume driving. If it has\
not gone
down, contact a dealer for repairs.

Steam and spray from an overheated engine can seriously scald you.
Do not open the hood if steam is coming out.
WARNING
removing the radiator cap while the engine is hot can cause the coolant t\

Changing a Flat Tire
If a tire goes flat while driving, grasp the steering wheel firmly, and brake gradually
to reduce speed. Then, stop in a safe place.
replace the flat tire with the compact
spare tire. Go to a dealer as soon as possible to have the full-size tir\
e re
paired or
replaced.
Getting Ready to Change the Tire
Park the vehicle on a firm, level, non-slippery surface. Apply the par\
king brake,
shift to Park (P), and turn the vehicle off. Turn on the hazard warning lights.
1.
open the trunk floor lid.
2.
Take the tool case out of the trunk. T
ake the jack
and wheel nut wrench out of the tool case.
3.
Unscrew the wing bolt, then remove the spacer
cone.
remove the spare tire.
4.
Place the compact spare tire (wheel side up)
under the vehicle body, near the tire that needs
to be replaced.
5.

Spare tire
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation
U.S. models
each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly\
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the \
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure\
label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated \
on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine\
the
proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped
with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates
a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly underinflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the\
proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly underinflated tire causes the tire to ove\
rheat and
can lead to tire failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel efficienc\
y and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehicle’
s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenanc\
e,
and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even
if underinflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of\
the
TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator
to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This \
sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the \
malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be abl\
e
to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle \
that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or altern\
ate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
Driving on an extremely underinflated tire can cause it to overheat. A\
n overheated
tire can fail. Always inflate your tires to the specified pressure.
