the air bag system is not on and the air
bags will not inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the air
bags even if the battery loses power or
it becomes disconnected prior to de-
ployment.Also, the ORC turns on the
Air Bag Warning Light in
the instrument panel for
approximately four to eight
seconds for a self-check when the ig-
nition is first turned on. After the self-
check, the Air Bag Warning Light will
turn off. If the ORC detects a mal-
function in any part of the system, it
turns on the Air Bag Warning Light,
either momentarily or continuously. A
single chime will sound if the light
comes on again after initial startup.
It also includes diagnostics that will
illuminate the instrument cluster Air
Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is
noted that could affect the air bag
system. The diagnostics also record
the nature of the malfunction.
WARNING!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light
in your instrument panel could
mean you won't have the air bags to
protect you in a collision. If the light
does not come on as a bulb check
when the ignition is first turned on,
stays on after you start the vehicle,
or if it comes on as you drive, have
an authorized dealer service the air
bag system immediately.
Driver And Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag Inflator Units
The Driver and Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag Inflator Units are lo-
cated in the center of the steering
wheel and on the right side of the
instrument panel. When the ORC de-
tects a collision requiring the Ad-
vanced Front Air Bags, it signals the
inflator units. A large quantity of non-
toxic gas is generated to inflate the
Advanced Front Air Bags. Different
air bag inflation rates are possible,
based on the collision type and sever-
ity. The steering wheel hub trim cover
and the upper right side of the instru-
ment panel separate and fold out of the way as the air bags inflate to their
full size. The air bags fully inflate in
about 50 to 70 milliseconds. This is
about half of the time it takes to blink
your eyes. The air bags then quickly
deflate while helping to restrain the
driver and front passenger.
The Advanced Front Air Bag gas is
vented through the vent holes in the
sides of the air bag. In this way, the air
bags do not interfere with your con-
trol of the vehicle.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bag (SAB) Inflator Units
The Supplemental Seat-Mounted
Side Air Bags (SAB) are designed to
activate only in certain side collisions.
The ORC determines if a side collision
requires the side air bags to inflate,
based on several factors, including the
severity and type of collision.
Based on several factors, including
the severity and type of collision, the
side air bag inflator on the crash side
of the vehicle may be triggered, re-
leasing a quantity of non-toxic gas.
The inflating SAB exits through the
seat seam into the space between the

TIRE PRESSURES FOR
HIGH-SPEED OPERATION
The manufacturer advocates driving
at safe speeds within posted speed
limits. Where speed limits or condi-
tions are such that the vehicle can be
driven at high speeds, maintaining
correct tire inflation pressure is very
important. Increased tire pressure
and reduced vehicle loading may be
required for high-speed vehicle op-
eration. Refer to original-equipment
information, or an authorized tire
dealer, for recommended safe operat-
ing speeds, loading and cold tire infla-
tion pressures.WARNING!
High-speed driving, with your ve-
hicle at or above maximum load, is
dangerous. The added strain on your
tires could cause them to fail. You
could have a serious collision. Do not
drive a vehicle loaded to the maxi-
mum capacity at continuous speeds
above 120 km/h.RADIAL-PLY TIRES
WARNING!
Combining radial ply tires with
other types of tires on your vehicle
will cause your vehicle to handle
poorly. The instability could cause a
collision. Always use radial ply tires
in sets of four. Never combine them
with other types of tires.
Cuts and punctures in radial tires are
repairable only in the tread area be-
cause of sidewall flexing. Consult
your authorized tire dealer for radial
tire repairs.
SPARE TIRE MATCHING
ORIGINAL EQUIPPED
TIRE AND WHEEL (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Your vehicle may be equivalent with a
spare tire and wheel in look and func-
tion as the original equipment tire and
wheel found on the front or rear axle
of your vehicle. This spare tire may be
used in the tire rotation for your ve-
hicle. If your vehicle has this option refer to an authorized tire dealer for
the recommended tire rotation pat-
tern.
If your vehicle is not equipped with an
original equipment tire and wheel as a
spare, a non-matching temporary
emergency use spare may be equipped
with your vehicle. Temporary use
spares are engineered to be used only
with your vehicle. Your vehicle may
be equipped with one of the following
types of non-matching temporary use
spares; compact, full size, or limited-
use. Do not install more than one non-
matching temporary use spare tire/
wheel on the vehicle at any given time.
CAUTION!
Because of the reduced ground clear-
ance, do not take your vehicle
through an automatic car wash with
a compact, full size or limited-use
temporary spare installed. Damage
to the vehicle may result.

 The TPMS should not be used asa tire pressure gauge while ad-
justing your tire pressure.
 Driving on a significantly under- inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also re-
duces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the ve-
hicle’s handling and stopping
ability.
 The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it
is the driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure,
using an accurate tire pressure
gage, even if under-inflation has
not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring Telltale Light.”
 Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire pressure, and the
TPMS will monitor the actual
tire pressure in the tire.
BASE SYSTEM
The TPMS uses wireless technology
with wheel rim mounted electronic
sensors to monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors, mounted to each wheel as
part of the valve stem, transmit tire
pressure readings to the Receiver
Module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important for you
to check the tire pressure in all of
your tires regularly and to main-
tain the proper pressure.
The Basic TPMS consists of the fol-
lowing components:
 Receiver Module
 Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sen-
sors
 TPMS Telltale Warning Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low
Tire Pressure Warnings The “Tire Pressure Moni-
toring Telltale Light” will
illuminate in the instru-
ment cluster, a "TIRE LOW
PRESSURE" message will display in
the instrument cluster, and an audible
chime will be activated when one or
more of the four active road tire pres-
sures are low. Should this occur, you
should stop as soon as possible, check the inflation pressure of each tire on
your vehicle, and inflate each tire to
the vehicle's recommended cold tire
pressure value (located on the placard
on the driver's-side B-Pillar). The
system will automatically update and
the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light” will extinguish once the up-
dated tire pressures have been re-
ceived.
NOTE:
The vehicle may need to be driven
for up to 20 minutes above 24 km/h
to receive this information.
The “Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light” will flash on and off for
75 seconds, and remain on solid when
a system fault is detected. The system
fault will also sound a chime. If the
ignition switch is cycled, this se-
quence will repeat, providing the sys-
tem fault still exists. The “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring Telltale Light” will
turn off when the fault condition no
longer exists. A system fault can occur
with any of the following scenarios:252

1. Jamming due to electronic devices
or driving next to facilities emitting
the same radio frequencies as the
TPMS sensors.
2. Installing some form of aftermar-
ket window tinting that affects radio
wave signals.
3. Accumulation of excessive snow
and/or ice around the wheels or wheel
housings.
4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped
with TPMS sensors.
Vehicles With Compact Spare
1. The compact spare tire (for
versions/markets, where provided)
does not have a TPMS sensor. There-
fore the TPMS will not monitor the
pressure in the compact spare tire.
2. If you install the compact spare
tire in place of a road tire that has a
pressure below the low-pressure
warning limit, upon the next ignition
switch cycle, a chime will sound, a
"TIRE LOW PRESSURE" messagewill be displayed and the “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring Telltale Light” will
turn on.
3. After driving for up to 20 minutes
above 24 km/h, the “Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light” will flash
on and off for 75 seconds and then
remain on solid.
4. For each subsequent ignition
switch cycle, a chime will sound, the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light” will flash on and off for 75 sec-
onds and then remain on solid.
5. Once you repair or replace the
original road tire and reinstall it on
the vehicle in place of the compact
spare tire, the TPMS will automati-
cally update, and the “Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light” will turn
off as long as no tire pressure is below
the low-pressure warning limit in any
of the four active road tires. The ve-
hicle may need to be driven for up to
20 minutes above 24 km/h for the
TPMS to receive this information.
TPMS Deactivation And
Reactivation
The TPMS can be deactivated if re-
placing all four wheel and tire assem-
blies (road tires) with wheel and tire
assemblies that do not have TPMS
Sensors, such as when installing win-
ter wheel and tire assemblies on your
vehicle. To deactivate the TPMS, first,
replace all four wheel and tire assem-
blies (road tires) with those not
equipped with TPM Sensors. Then,
drive the vehicle for at least 20 min-
utes above 24 km/h. The TPMS will
chime and the “TPM Telltale Light”
will flash on and off for 75 seconds
and then remain on solid. Upon the
next ignition switch cycle, the TPMS
will no longer chime or turn on the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light.” To reactivate the TPMS, first,
replace all four wheel and tire assem-
blies (road tires) with those equipped
with TPM Sensors. Then, drive the
vehicle for up to 20 minutes above
24 km/h. The TPMS will chime and
the “Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light” will flash on and off for 75 sec-
onds.
253

PREMIUM SYSTEM (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The TPMS uses wireless technology
with wheel rim-mounted electronic
sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.
Sensors mounted to each wheel as
part of the valve stem transmit tire
pressure readings to the Receiver
Module.
NOTE:
It is particularly important to
regularly check and maintain
proper tire pressure in all the tires.
The Premium TPMS consists of the
following components:
 Receiver Module
 Four TPMS Sensors
 Various TPMS messages, whichdisplay in the Electronic Vehicle In-
formation Center (EVIC), and
graphics displaying tire pressures
 TPMS Telltale Warning Light
TPMS Low Pressure Warnings
The “Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light” will illuminate in the in- strument cluster, and an audible
chime will be activated when one or
more of the four active road tire pres-
sures are low. In addition, the EVIC
will display a “LOW TIRE PRES-
SURE” message for a minimum of
five seconds and a graphic display of
the pressure value(s) with the low
tire(s) flashing.
Should a low tire condition occur on
any of the four active road tire(s), you
should stop as soon as possible, and
inflate the low tire(s) that is flashing
on the graphic display to the vehicle’s
recommended cold tire pressure
value. The system will automatically
update, the graphic display of the
pressure value(s) will stop flashing,
and the “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” will extinguish oncethe updated tire pressure(s) have been
received. The vehicle may need to be
driven for up to 20 minutes above
24 km/h to receive this information.
SERVICE TPM SYSTEM Message
The “Tire Pressure Monitoring Tell-
tale Light” will flash on and off for
75 seconds, and remain on solid when
a system fault is detected. The system
fault will also sound a chime. The
EVIC will display a “SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM” message for a minimum of
five seconds. This text message is then
followed by a graphic display, with
- -
in place of the pressure value(s) indi-
cating which TPMS Sensor(s) is not
being received.
If the ignition switch is cycled, this
sequence will repeat, providing the
system fault still exists. If the system

FUEL REQUIREMENTS
— GASOLINE ENGINE
All engines are designed to meet all
emissions regulations and provide ex-
cellent fuel economy and performance
when using high quality unleaded
gasoline with a minimum research oc-
tane rating of 91. The use of premium
gasoline is not recommended, as itwill not provide any benefit over regu-
lar gasoline in these engines.
Light spark knock at low engine
speeds is not harmful to your engine.
However, continued heavy spark
knock at high speeds can cause dam-
age and immediate service is required.
Poor quality gasoline can cause prob-
lems such as hard starting, stalling,
and hesitations. If you experience
these symptoms, try another brand of
gasoline before considering service for
the vehicle.
Over 40 automobile manufacturer's
world wide have issued and endorsed
consistent gasoline specifications (the
World Wide Fuel Charter, WWFC)
which define fuel properties necessary
to deliver enhanced emissions, perfor-
mance, and durability for your ve-
hicle. The manufacturer recommends
the use of gasoline that meets the
WWFC specifications if they are
available.

Cooling System
To reduce potential for engine and
transmission overheating, take the
following actions:
 City Driving
When stopped for short periods of
time, shift the transmission into NEU-
TRAL but do not increase engine idle
speed.
 Highway Driving
Reduce speed.
 Air Conditioning
Turn off temporarily.
Trailer Hitch Attaching Points
Your vehicle will require extra equip-
ment to tow a trailer safely and effi-
ciently. The trailer tow hitch must be
attached to your vehicle using the
provided attaching points on the ve-
hicle's frame. Refer to the following
