Vehicle Warranty
For a detailed description of what is covered by your vehicle’s New Vehicle
Limited Warranty, refer to the Warranty Guide that is provided to you along with
your Owner’s Manual.
All-Wheel Drive
All-wheel drive uses all four wheels to power the
vehicle. This increases traction, enabling you
to drive over terrain and road conditions that a
conventional two-wheel drive vehicle cannot. The
AWD system is active all the time and requires no
input from the driver.
Tips for Driving on Various Surfaces
Sand: When driving over sand, try to keep all four
wheels on the most solid area of the trail. Avoid
reducing the tire pressures but shift to a lower gear
and drive steadily through the terrain. Apply the
accelerator slowly and avoid spinning the wheels.
Mud and Water: If you must drive through high
water, drive slowly. Traction or brake capability may
be limited.
Be cautious of sudden changes in vehicle speed or
direction when you are driving in mud. Even AWD
vehicles can lose traction in slick mud. As when you
are driving over sand, apply the accelerator slowly
and avoid spinning your wheels. If the vehicle does
slide, steer in the direction of the slide until you
regain control of the vehicle. After driving through mud, clean off residue stuck to
rotating driveshafts and tires. Excess mud stuck on
tires and rotating driveshafts causes an imbalance
that could damage drive components.
Snow and Ice: AWD vehicles have advantages over
2WD vehicles in snow and ice but can skid like any
other vehicle. Should you start to slide while driving
on snowy or icy roads, turn the steering wheel in the
direction of the slide until you regain control. Avoid
sudden applications of power and quick changes
of direction on snow and ice. Apply the accelerator
slowly and steadily when starting from a full stop.
Note: Your AWD vehicle is not intended for off-road
use. The AWD feature gives your vehicle some
limited off-road capabilities. See the All-Wheel Drive
chapter in your Owner's Manual for complete details.
Hill Start Assist
When the system is active, your vehicle remains
stationary on the slope for two to three seconds
after you release the brake pedal. Once the
engine develops sufficient drive, the brakes

release automatically.
Note: The driver is always responsible for controlling
the vehicle, supervising the system and intervening
if required. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for safety
information, more details and limitations.
Fuel-Efficient Transmission
Your vehicle has been designed to improve
fuel economy by reducing fuel usage while
coasting or decelerating. You may perceive this
as a light to medium braking sensation when
removing your foot from the accelerator pedal.
Open Window Buffeting
You may hear a pulsing noise when just one of the
windows is open. Lower the opposite window slightly
to reduce this noise. Press the control to open the
window. Lift the control to close the window.
