nates, cold air mostly blows in the
direction of the driver’s seat.
However, some of the cold air may
come out of other seats’ ducts to
keep indoor air pleasant.
If you use the button with no passen-
ger in the front passenger seat, ener-
gy consumption will be reduced.
Economy air conditioning

work less and may improve fuel effi-
ciency.

ing the ECON button.
Automatic Ventilation (if equipped)
When the ignition is ON or when the
engine is running and the outside
temperature is below 59°F (15°C),
the automatic ventilation feature will

mode is selected. In this condition
the air intake position will automati-
cally switch to the outside (fresh) air

Towing capacity:
We do not recommend using this
vehicle for trailer towing.
Cargo capacity:
The cargo capacity of your vehicle
will increase or decrease depending
on the weight and the number of
occupants.
Steps For Determining Correct
Load Limit -
1. Locate the statement "The com- bined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX
kg or XXX lbs.'' on your vehicle's
placard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will
be riding in your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from
XXX kg or XXX lbs.
4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and lug-
gage load capacity. For example, if
the "XXX" amount equals 1400
lbs. and there will be five 150 lbs.
passengers in your vehicle, the
amount of available cargo and lug-
gage load capacity is 650 lbs.
(1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.) 5. Determine the combined weight of
luggage and cargo being loaded
on the vehicle. That weight may
not safely exceed the available
cargo and luggage load capacity
calculated in Step 4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a trail- er, load from your trailer will be
transferred to your vehicle. Consult
this manual to determine how this
reduces the available cargo and
luggage load capacity of your
vehicle.
WARNING - Loose cargo
Do not travel with unsecured
blunt objects in the passenger
compartment of your vehicle
(e.g. suit cases or unsecured
child seats). These items may
strike occupant during a sud-
den stop or crash.

Temperature -A, B & C
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
when tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can
cause the material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce tire life, and
excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure. The grade C cor-
responds 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 labora-
tory test wheel than the minimum
required by law. Tire terminology and definitions
Air Pressure:
The amount of air
inside the tire pressing outward on
the tire. Air pressure is expressed in
kilopascal (kPa) or pounds per
square inch (psi).
Accessory Weight: This means the
combined weight of optional acces-
sories. Some examples of optional
accessories are, automatic
transaxle, power seats, and air con-
ditioning.
Aspect Ratio: The relationship of a
tire's height to its width.
Belt: A rubber coated layer of cords
that is located between the plies and
the tread. Cords may be made from
steel or other reinforcing materials.
Bead: The tire bead contains steel
wires wrapped by steel cords that
hold the tire onto the rim.
Bias Ply Tire: A pneumatic tire in
which the plies are laid at alternate
angles less than 90 degrees to the
centerline of the tread. Cold Tire Pressure:
The amount of
air pressure in a tire, measured in
kilopascals (kPa) or pounds per
square inch (psi) before a tire has
built up heat from driving.
Curb Weight: This means the weight
of a motor vehicle with standard and
optional equipment including the
maximum capacity of fuel, oil and
coolant, but without passengers and
cargo.
DOT Markings: A code molded into
the sidewall of a tire signifying that
the tire is in compliance with the U.S.
Department of Transportation motor
vehicle safety standards. The DOT
code includes the Tire Identification
Number (TIN), an alphanumeric des-
ignator which can also identify the
tire manufacturer, production plant,
brand and date of production.

CAUTION - Natural leather
seat cover (If equipped)
Natural leather has visible pores, scars or blood vessels,etc. Pressure marks or wrinklesmay be made when used.Prolonged exposure to sunlightor heat may cause discol-oration. These things occur dueto the natural characteristics ofcowhides. If the leather isexposed to rain or gets wet,remove water with a dry clothand dry the leather in the shadeto minimize damage. Make sureto keep sharp objects away fromthe leather as these can createscratches on the surface. Forlight-colored leather, be carefulof spots or color transfer, suchas from jeans.
CAUTION - Fabric seat
cover (If equipped)
Please clean the fabric seats regularly with a vacuum cleanerin consideration of fabric mate-rial characteristics. If they areheavily soiled with beveragestains, etc., use a suitable interi-or cleaner. To prevent damage toseat covers, wipe off the seatcovers down to the seams witha large wiping motion and mod-erate pressure using a softsponge or microfiber cloth.
Velcro closures on clothing orsharp objects may cause snag-ging or scratches on the surfaceof the seats. Make sure not torub such objects against thesurface.
CAUTION - Leather
When cleaning leather products(steering wheel, seats etc.), useneutral detergents or low alco-hol content solutions. If you usehigh alcohol content solutionsor acid/alkaline detergents, thecolor of the leather may fade orthe surface may get stripped off.
