Fuel Type and Tank Capacity –
Your fuel tank can

of 87. Using gasoline with a lower octane rating
may degrade performance.
Tire Pressure – Your vehicle’s tire pressure
specifications are found on the vehicle’s Safety
Compliance Certification Label located on the
driver’s door jamb. Check your tires for proper
air pressure monthly; Use a tire gauge to check
the tire inflation pressure, including the spare (if equipped), at least monthly and before long
trips. Always use an accurate tire pressure
gauge. Check the tire pressure when tires are
cold, after the vehicle has been parked for
at least three hours or has been driven less
than three miles (5 km). (As you drive, the
temperature in the tire warms up, increasing
the tire pressure.) Improperly inflated tires can
affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly,
resulting in a possible loss of vehicle control.
Refer to the Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter
in your Owner’s Guide for further information.
Fuel
Pump Shut-Off Switch –

pump shut-off switch, refer to the Roadside
Emergencies chapter in your Owner’s Guide.

and support of a 24-hour emergency roadside
assistance program is included. Roadside
