Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that may lead to an accident, severe personal injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, and handheld devices, other equipment or vehicle systems which take the driver’s eyes, attention and focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle or that are not permissible by law should never be used during operation of the vehicle.

(Indicator located on Instrument Cluster)
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)†24
The TPMS indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure Light
and TPMS Malfunction Indicator A. The indicator is designed
to illuminate if it detects one or more tires is significantly underinflated,
the vehicle has a spare tire installed without TPMS or the outside
temperature becomes significantly lower.
The Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator B is displayed on the LCD
screen in the Instrument Cluster when the tire(s) is underinflated. Inflate
tire(s), using an accurate digital tire pressure gauge, to specifications to
turn off the Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator B; see the front driver’s
door jamb for PSI specification.
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator
will blink for approximately one minute and then illuminate–see dealer
for service.

•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month. Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires” that have been sitting for 20 minutes, and tires that are not hot in temperature from direct sunlight or heat
•For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle
•In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather
QUICK TIPS
REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of driver's door jamb, which is visible when the door is open
• Consult your dealer for service if the Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s)
• Personal electronic devices (such as laptops, wireless chargers, remote start systems, etc.) can interfere with the TPMS system, which may cause the Malfunction Warning Indicator (Check Engine Light) to illuminate

If the vehicle speed exceeds 1 mph (1.6 km/h) after being refueled with more than 1.6 gallons (6 liters), the average fuel economy will be cleared to zero (----)
Your vehicle’s steering wheel buttons may differ from those in the illustrations.
Refer to section 4 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
There are several factors that contribute
to your vehicle’s fuel economy, such as
maintenance of your vehicle, driving style,
environmental conditions, vehicle weight and
vehicle aerodynamics. Below are some tips on
how to help improve fuel economy:
•Keep your vehicle in good condition with
regular maintenance
•Don’t let the engine idle longer
than necessary
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating
smoothly and at a moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended
pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying
unnecessary weight in your vehicle
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
