DRIVING TIPS
Always check the Owner’s Manual for more operating information and safety features
Driving
Tips
Break-in period
First 600 miles: Avoid heavy
braking and acceleration; drive at
varying road and engine speeds
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
When brake pedal is pressed, ABS
automatically reduces hydraulic
pressure to any wheel on the
verge of locking up
You may feel a slight pulsing of the
brake pedal and hear a clicking noise;
this tells you the ABS is functioning
properly; increase pressure on pedal
for maximum braking
Tips: Maintain constant
pressure on the brake pedal
Do not pump the brakes
Unique driving conditions†
Every 5,000 miles change oil/
filter, inspect coolant level,
lights, brake/clutch fluid, tire
pressure/wear, power steering
fluid, locks/hinges, washer fluid
and rotate tires
Maintenance notes:
Rotate tires every 7,500 miles
or sooner if needed
Replace cabin air filter once
every 2 years or 25,000 miles
†
Replace spark plugs every
100,000 miles (or 60,000 miles
if following the Unique driving
conditions
†)
Replace (FL22)* engine coolant
every 120,000 miles or 10 yearsTraction Control System*
Automatically controls engine
torque to prevent excessive
wheel spin at all speeds,
especially when accelerating
on slippery surfaces
Tire economy and tips
Check pressure at least monthly
when tires are cold
Maintain correct front-end
alignment and tire balance; rotate
tires at 7,500-mile intervals; see
Owner’s Manual for rotation chart
Tire pressure
Decal on the edge of the
driver’s door provides tire
pressure information
A.Change: Engine oil/
replace filter
Lubricate: All locks and hinges
B.Inspect: Disc brakes
C.Inspect: Drive belts, fuel lines
and hoses, cooling system,
brake lines, hoses and
connections, steering
operation and linkages,
front suspension ball joints,
driveshaft dust boots
D.Replace: Air filter
E.Inspect: Exhaust system and
heat shields
F.Inspect: PCV valve
Change: Engine coolant
(Other than FL22) Tire chains
†Tire chains can damage aluminum
wheels; use on steel wheels only
Tips: Use only SAE class “S”
chains, install only on front
tires; install as tightly as
possible and retighten
after driving 1/4 -1/2 mile;
chains may affect handling
Never exceed 30 mph with
tire chains
