Fuel Economy
Several factors 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
§ 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

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)† 26
The TPMS indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure Light and TPMS
Malfunction Indicator A.
The TPMS indicator
is designed to illuminate if it detects one or more tires
is significantly underinflated, if a spare tire has been installed that does not
have a TPMS device, or when the outside temperature drops considerably.
The LCD screen in the instrument cluster will display the Low Tire Pressure
indicator
B showing which tire(s) is underinflated.
§ Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate digital tire pressure gauge.
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

REMINDERS:
§ Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of the driver’s door jamb, 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.) may interfere with the TPMS system, which
may cause the Malfunction Warning Indicator (Check Engine Light) to illuminate
§ 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, safety and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressure 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
