Loose Fuel Cap
A LOOSE FUEL CAP warning message will appear in the
dot matrix liquid crystal display

01 when the fuel-
filler cap is not tightened correctly.

to tighten, turn the cap clockwise until a single click
is heard.

the warning message will disappear when the vehicle
detects the fuel-filler cap is properly tightened and the
reset button

02 is pressed for more than 1 second.

If the cap is not properly tightened, the Malfunction
Indicator Light

may illuminate.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” and
the
“Pre-driving checks and adjustments (section 3)” of your Owner’s Manual.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

A ChECk tIRE PRESSURE warning message will
appear in the dot matrix liquid crystal display

01
and the low tire pressure warning light
02 will

illuminate when one or more tires are low on
pressure and air is needed.
• The tire pressures should be checked when the
tires are cold. the tires are considered cold after
the vehicle has been parked for 3 hours or more or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6km) at moderate speeds.

After tire pressures are adjusted, drive the vehicle
at speeds above 16 Mph (25km/h). the ChECk tIRE
PRESSURE warning message and low tire pressure warning light will disappear.

when the low tire pressure warning light flashes for 1 minute and then remains on, the tpMS
is not functioning properly. have the system checked by an InFInItI retailer.

tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the
outside temperature. Low outside temperature can lower the temperature of the air inside the
tire, which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure. this may cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates in low ambient temperature, check
the tire pressure in your tires.
• Check the tire pressure (including the spare tire) often and always prior to long distance trips.

the tire and Loading Information label contains valuable information. please refer to section 9,
“technical and consumer information”, in your Owner’s Manual for the location of the tire
and Loading Information label.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, “Starting and driving (section 5)” and the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself (section 8)” of your Owner’s Manual.
