uuWhen Driving uTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Driving
Press and hold the TPM S button until the low 
tire pressure/TPMS indicator blinks twice, 
indicating the calibration process has begun.
• If the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator does 
not blink, confirm the above conditions 
then press and hold the TPMS button again.
• The calibration process finishes 
automatically.
1TPMS Calibration
•TPMS cannot be calibrated if  a compact spare tire is 
installed.
•The calibration process  requires approximately 30 
minutes of cumulative dr iving at speeds between 
30-65 mph (48-105 km/h).
•During calibration,  if the ignition is turned off then 
on again, and the vehicle is not moved within 45 
seconds, the low tire pres sure indicator may come 
on briefly. This is norma l and indicates that the 
calibration process is  not yet complete.
If the snow chains are installed, remove them before 
calibrating the TPMS.
If the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator comes on even 
when the properly inflated specified regular tires are 
installed, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.
We recommend that the tires be replaced with the 
same brand, model, and size  as the originals. Ask a 
dealer for details.

Driving
Tire Pressure Monitoring  System (TPMS) - Required 
Federal Explanation
Each tire, including the spare (i f 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 infl ation pressure label, you should 
determine the proper tire inflat ion 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 tire s is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pr essure 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-in flated tire causes the tire to 
overheat and can lead to tire fail ure. Under-inflation also reduces 
fuel efficiency and tire tread li fe, and may affect the vehicle's 
handling and stopping ability.

uuWhen Driving uTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation
Driving
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 un der-inflation has not reached the 
level to trigger illumination of th e TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equi pped 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 syst em detects a malfunction, the 
telltale will flash fo r approximately one minute and then remain 
continuously illumina ted. 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.

Brake System
Use the parking brake to keep the vehicle stationary when parked. When the 
parking brake is applied, you can manually or automatically release it.
■To apply
The electric parking brake can be applied any 
time the vehicle has battery, no matter which 
position the ignition switch
*1 is in.
Pull the electric parkin g brake switch up gently 
and securely. u The parking brake indicator comes on.
■To release
The vehicle must be ON 
(w*1 in order to 
release the electric parking brake.
1. Depress the brake pedal.
2. Press the electric parking brake switch.
u The parking brake indicator goes off.
Manually releasing the parking brake using 
the switch helps your ve hicle start slowly and 
smoothly when facing down hill on steep hills.
*1: Models with the smart entry system have an  ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an 
ignition switch.
■Parking Brake1 Parking Brake
You may hear the electric parking brake system 
operating from the rear wh eel area when you apply 
or release the parking brake. This is normal.
The brake pedal may slightly  move due to the electric 
parking brake system opera tion when you apply or 
release the parking br ake. This is normal.
You cannot apply or  release the parking brake if the 
battery goes dead. 2 Jump Starting  P. 629
If you pull up and hold the electric parking brake switch 
while driving, the brakes on all four wheels are applied 
by the VSA
® system until the vehicle come to a stop. The 
electric parking brake then applies, and the switch 
should be released.
In the following situations, the parking brake 
automatically operates.
•When the vehicle stops with the automatic brake 
hold system activated for more than 10 minutes.
•When the driver’s seat belt is unfastened while your 
vehicle is stopped and the brake hold system is applied.
•When the engine is turned off while the brake hold 
system is applied.
•When there is a problem with the brake hold 
system while brake hold is applied.
•When the vehicle is stops more than 10 minutes 
while ACC with LSF is activated.
•When the driver’s seat belt is unfastened while your 
vehicle is stopped automatically by ACC with LSF.
•When the engine is turned off while ACC with LSF 
is activated.

uuBraking uBrake System
Driving
Your vehicle is equipped with disc brakes at  all four wheels. The brake assist system 
increases the stopping force when you  depress the brake pedal hard in an 
emergency situation. The an ti-lock brake system (ABS) helps you retain steering 
control when brak ing very hard.

■Foot Brake1Foot Brake
Check the brakes after driving through deep water, 
or if there is a buildup of  road surface water. If 
necessary, dry the brakes by  lightly depressing the 
pedal several times.
If you hear a continuous me tallic friction sound when 
applying the brakes, this is  caused by the brake wear 
indicator rubbing on the  brake rotor and indicates 
that the brake pads need to be replaced. Have the 
vehicle checked by a deal er. If you hear only an 
occasional squeak or squeal  when you initially apply 
the brake pedal, this may be normal and caused by 
high frequency vibr ation of the brake pads against 
the rotating brake disc.
Constantly using the brak e pedal while going down a 
long hill builds up heat, which reduces the brake 
effectiveness. Apply engine  braking by taking your 
foot off the accelerator pe dal and downshifting to a 
lower gear/speed position.  With manual transmission 
use a lower gear for gr eater engine braking.
Do not rest your foot  on the brake pedal while 
driving, as it will lightly  apply the brakes and cause 
them to lose effectiveness  over time and reduce pad 
life. It will also conf use drivers behind you.
Whenever the brakes are activated by CMBS
TM * or 
another system that automa tically controls braking, 
the brake pedal is depressed and released in 
accordance with braking function.
* Not available on all models
