Fuel Economy
There are several factors that contribute to your
vehicle’s fuel economy, including maintenance of
your vehicle, driving style, environmental conditions,
vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics. Below are
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 vehicles
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
REMINDER: Driving range varies depending on a vehicle’s fuel tank size, e.g., 12-gal. vs. 24-gal. Even though the two vehicles' MPG may be the same, the vehicle with the larger tank will have the greater range.

The TPMS indicator
functions as both Low
Tire Pressure Light and TPMS
Malfunction Indicator.
The indicator will illuminate if
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 A is displayed on the
LCD screen in the instrument cluster when one or more of your
tires are underinflated.
Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate digital tire
pressure gauge to turn off Low Tire Pressure Light and Low Tire
Pressure Position Indicator A. See 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.
REMINDER: Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s).
