Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) — Required Federal Explanatio\
n
U.S. models only
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 under-inflated.
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 under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat 
and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
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 maintenance, 
and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even 
if under-inflation 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 able 
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.
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 wit\
h the compact
spare tire. Go to a dealer as soon as possible to have the full-size tire repaired or 
replaced.
Getting Ready to Change the Tire
Park the vehicle on a firm, level, non-slippery surface. Apply the parking brake, 
shift to Park (P), and turn the vehicle off. Turn on the hazard warning lights.
1. Open the tailgate. Turn on the cargo lights if
necessary (see page 39).

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, tread life, and 
comfort. Refer to the driver’s doorjamb label or the specifications (see page 
140) 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 necessary, add 
or release air until the specified pressure is reached, and then calibrate the 
system (see page 115). If checked when hot, tire pressure can be as much as 
4–6 psi (30–40 kPa, 0.3–0.5 kgf/cm2) higher than checked when cold.
• 
At least once a month or before long trips, use a gauge to measure the pressure 
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.

Tire and Loading Information Label
The label attached to the driver’s doorjamb provides necessary tire and 
loading information. 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 and Wheel Replacement
Replace your tires with radials of the same size, load range, speed rating, 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.
Installing improper tires on your vehicle can affect handling and stability.
This can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.
Always use the size and type of tires recommended in the Owner’s Manual.
WARNING
Tire Service Life
The life of your tires is dependent on many factors, including driving habits, 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 Tires
If 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 Chains
Install tire chains on the front tires only. Because your vehicle has limited tire 
clearance, we strongly recommend using the following chains:
Models with 215/70R16 tires:
Cable type: SCC Radial Chain SC1042
Models with 225/65R17 or P225/60R18 99H tires:
Cable type: SCC Radial Chain TC2111MM
Mount chains as tightly as you can, and make sure that they do not touch\
the
brake lines or suspension.
Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly installed can damage your 
vehicle’s brake lines, suspension, body, and wheels. Stop driving if they are hitting 
any part of the vehicle.
NOTICEUsing 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 killed.
Follow all instructions in this guide regarding the selection and use of\
tire
chains.
