Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Monitors the tire pressure while you are driving. If your vehicle’s tire pressure
becomes significantly low, the low tire pressure indicator comes on and a message
appears on the display. Available on U.S. models only.
What to Do
Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire
pressure and adjust the pressure to the specified
level on the label on the driver’s doorjamb.
TPMS CalibrationAny time you inflate, change, or rotate one or more of the tires, you \
need to
recalibrate the system.
The calibration process requires approximately 30 minutes of cumulative driving at
speeds between 30–65 mph (48–105 km/h). The vehicle must be stop\
ped to begin
calibration, and the process finishes automatically.
Models with TPMS button
Press and hold the TPMS button until the low tire
pressure indicator blinks twice, indicating the
calibration process has begun.

TPMS indicator
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation
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 alternate 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.

Tire Information
To safely operate your vehicle, your tires must be of the proper type and\
size, in good
condition with adequate tread, and properly inflated.
Inflation Guidelines
•  Properly inflated tires provide the best combination of handling, trea\
d life, and
comfort. refer to the driver’s doorjamb label or the specifications (see page
147) for the specified pressure.
•  Underinflated tires wear unevenly, adversely affect handling and fuel economy,
and are more likely to fail from overheating.
• 
overinflated tires make your vehicle ride harshly, are more prone to road
hazards, and wear unevenly.
• 
every day before you drive, look at each of the tires. If one looks lower\
than the
others, check the pressure with a tire gauge.
•  Measure the air pressure when tires are cold. This means the vehicle has been
parked for at least 3 hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km). If n\
ecessary, add
or release air until the specified pressure is reached, and then calib\
rate the
system (see page 118). If checked when hot, tire pressure can be as mu\
ch as
4–6 psi (30–40 kPa, 0.3–0.5 kgf/cm
2) higher than checked when cold.
•  At least once a month or before long trips, use a gauge to measure the p\
ressure
in all tires, including the spare. even tires in good condition can lose 1–2 psi
(10–20 kPa, 0.1–0.2 kgf/cm2) per month.
Inspection Guidelines
every time you inflate the tires, check for the following:
•  Any damage to tires, including bumps, bulges, cuts, splits, or cracks in\
the side
or tread. remove any foreign objects and inspect for air leaks. replace tires if
you see fabric or cord.
•  Uneven or excessive tread wear. Have a dealer check the wheel alignment.
•  Cracks or other damage around the valve stems.
Wear Indicators
The groove where the wear indicator is located is
1/16 inch (1.6 mm) shallower than elsewhere on the
tire. If the tread has worn so low that the indicator is
exposed, replace the tire. Worn out tires have poor
traction on wet roads.
Example of a wear
indicator mark
Tire and Loading Information LabelThe label attached to the driver’s doorjamb provides necessary tire and
loading information.
Tire and Wheel Replacement
replace your tires with radials of the same size, load range, speed ratin\
g, and
maximum cold tire pressure rating (as shown on the tire’s sidewall). Using tires
of a different size or construction can cause certain vehicle systems to\
work
incorrectly. It is best to replace all four tires at the same time. If that isn’\
t possible,
replace the front or rear tires in pairs.
If you change or replace a wheel, make sure that the wheel’s specifications match
those of the original wheels. only use TPMS-specified wheels approved for your
vehicle.
Using tires that are excessively worn or improperly inflated can cause\

a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner’s manual regarding tire inflation
and maintenance
.

Tire Service Life
The life of your tires is dependent on many factors, including driving h\
abits, road
conditions, vehicle loading, inflation pressure, maintenance history, speed, and
environmental conditions (even when the tires are not in use).
In addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure maintenance,\
it is
recommended that you have annual inspections performed once the tires re\
ach
five years old. All tires, including the spare, should be removed from\
service after
10 years from the date of manufacture, regardless of their condition or \
state of
wear.
Winter TiresIf driving on snowy or frozen roads, mount all season tires marked “M\
+S”, snow
tires, or tire chains; reduce speed; and maintain sufficient distance \
between
vehicles when driving. For winter tires, select the size and load ranges\
that are the
same as the original tires, and mount them to all four wheels.
Tire ChainsBecause your vehicle has limited tire clearance, we strongly recommend u\
sing
the following chains:
For 215/55R16 tires:
Cable-type: Autotrac 0154505
For 215/50R17 tires:
Cable-type: Autotrac 0154005
Install tire chains on the front tires only. Mount chains as tightly as you can, and
make sure that they do not touch the brake lines or suspension.
Using the wrong chains, or not properly installing chains, can damage th\
e
brake lines and cause a crash in which you can be seriously injured or k\
illed.
Follow all instructions in this guide regarding the selection and use of\
tire
chains.
WARNING
Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly installed can dama\
ge your
vehicle’s brake lines, suspension, body, and wheels. Stop driving if they are hitting
any part of the vehicle.
NOTICE
Tire Labeling
The tires that came on your vehicle have a number of markings. Those you\

should be aware of are described below.
Here is an example of what each marking means: P205/55R16 89H
P: vehicle type (passenger)
205: tire width in millimeters
55: aspect ratio (tire section height as a
percentage of its width)
r: tire construction code (radial)
16: rim diameter in inches
89: load index (code indicating maximum load
tire can carry)
H: speed symbol (code indicating maximum
speed rating)
Tire Identification Number (TIN)The tire identification number
(TIN) is a group of numbers
and letters that look like the
example below. TIN is located
on the sidewall of the tire.
Glossary of Tire TerminologyCold Tire Pressure – The tire air pressure when the vehicle has been
parked for at least three hours or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km).
Load rating – The maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given
inflation pressure.

DOT Tire Quality Grading
The tires on your vehicle meet all U.S. Federal Safety requirements. All tires are
also graded for treadwear, traction, and temperature performance according
to Department of Transportation (DoT) standards. The following explains these
gradings.
Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall betwee\
n tread
shoulder and maximum section width.
For example:
Treadwear 200
Traction AA
Temperature A
All passenger car tires must conform to Federal Safety requirements in
addition to these grades.
TreadwearThe treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of th\
e tire
when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test\
course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1 1/2) tim\
es as well
on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance \
of
tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, servi\
ce practices,
and differences in road characteristics and climate.
TractionThe traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those \
grades
represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concre\
te. A tire
marked C may have poor traction performance.
WARNING: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead
braking traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hy\
droplaning,
or peak traction characteristics.
Temperature
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the\
tire’s
resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat w\
hen tested
under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test whee\
l. Sustained
high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and re\
duce
tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. Th\
e grade
C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and
A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel th\
an the
minimum required by law.
WARNING: The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not overloaded. excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat b\
uildup
and possible tire failure.
Air Conditioning
To ensure proper and safe operation, the Society of Automotive engineers (SAe
J2845) recommends that the refrigerant system only be serviced by train\
ed and
certified technicians.
Never repair or replace the air conditioning evaporator (cooling coil)\
with one
removed from a used or salvaged vehicle.
New replacement mobile air conditioning evaporators must be certified \
(and
labeled) as meeting SAe Standard J2842.
vented refrigerant is harmful to the environment. To avoid refrigerant from
venting, never replace the evaporator with one removed from a used or sa\
lvaged
vehicle.

Testing of Readiness Codes
Your vehicle has “readiness codes” as part of the onboard self-diag\
nostic system.
Some states refer to these codes as a test to see if your vehicle’s emissions
components are working properly. The codes may not be read if you go through the
testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected.
To check if they are set, turn the vehicle on without starting the engine\
. The
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it goes \
off, the
readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times, the readiness codes \
are not set.
If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness cod\
es are set,
prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:
1. Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.
2. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.
3. Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°\
C and 35°C).
4. Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle\
for 20
seconds.
5. Keep the vehicle in Park (P) or Neutral for manual transmission. Incre\
ase the
engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for about 3 minutes.
6. Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.
7. Select a nearby, lightly traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed
of 50 to 60 mph (80 to 97 km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the \
highway
with the vehicle in Drive (D) or 5th gear. Do not use cruise control. When traffic
allows, drive for 90 seconds without using the accelerator pedal. (vehicle speed
may vary slightly; this is oK.) If you cannot do this for a continuous 90 seconds
because of traffic conditions, drive for at least 30 seconds, then rep\
eat two more
times (for a total of 90 seconds).
8. Drive in city/suburban traffic for at least 10 minutes. When traffic\
conditions
allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal.
9. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 30 minutes.
The readiness codes are erased when the battery is disconnected, and set\
again
only after several days of driving under a variety of conditions.
If a testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, y\
ou may be
requested to return at a later date to complete the test, or see your de\
aler.

Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting
Below are some frequently asked questions and troubleshooting items that\
you may
have about the vehicle.
Q:
How do I set the vehicle clock?
A: For vehicles without navigation, see page 51. For vehicles with navigati\
on, the
time is automatically set using GPS signals.
Q: Why doesn’t the vehicle start when I press the ENGINE START/STOP button?*
A: The brake pedal must be pressed to start the engine.
Q: What is the AUTO* setting on my headlight lever?
A: When in the AUTo position, the vehicle’s exterior lights will automatically turn
on or off depending on the ambient lighting.
Q: Why won’t the driver’s door unlock when I grab the door handle, even though 
 the keyless access remote is within range?*
A: If you pull the handle too quickly, the system may not have time to confirm the
door is unlocked. Wait to hear a beep to confirm the door is unlocked. If you are
wearing gloves, the system may be slow to respond.
Q: After my battery was disconnected or went dead, the audio system is asking for 
 a code. Where do I find this?
A: In most cases, you do not need to enter a code. Turn on the vehicle and the
audio system, and press and hold the power button until the system react\
ivates.
Q: Why can’t I operate Pandora® through the audio system?*
A: Audio may be streaming through Bluetooth® Audio. Make sure Pandora mode
is selected and the phone cable is properly connected to the USB adapter\

cable (if using). Some phones may prompt you to “Allow” a connec\
tion.
Q: Is my phone compatible with Bluetooth features?
A: visit handsfreelink.com (U.S.) or www.handsfreelink.ca (Canada) to
check phone compatibility for Bluetooth® Audio, Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®,
and SMS text messaging.
Q: Every time I press the Talk button, the system gives me voice prompts. Can I turn 
 these off?*
A: From the Home screen, select SeTTINGS. Select System, then select voice
Prompt. Select off.
