N00301100900
Front-wheel drive vehicles: 15.5 gal (59.0 L) All-wheel drive vehicles: 14.5 gal (55.0 L) 1. Before filling with fuel, stop the engine. 2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear driver side of your vehicle. The fuel tank filler door can be openedfrom inside the vehicle with the fuel tank filler door release lever located at the left side of the driver’s seat.
3. Open the fuel tank filler pipe by slowly turning the cap counterclockwise. 4. While filling with fuel, store the cap in the cap holder located on the inside of the fuel tank filler door.
Filling the fuel tank
WA R N I N G Gasoline is highly flammable and explo- sive. You could be burned, seriously injured or killed when handling it. When refueling your vehicle, always turn theengine off and keep away from flames, sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel in well-ventilated outdoorareas. Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to get rid of your body’s static electricity by touching a metal part of the car or fuel pump. Any static electricity on your bodycould create a spark that ignites fuel vapor. Perform the whole refueling process (opening the fuel tank filler door, remov- ing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do notlet any other person come near the fuel tank filler. If you allowed a person to help you and that person was carrying staticelectricity, fuel vapor could be ignited. Do not move away from the fuel tank filler until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for example, sitting on a seat) part-way through the refueling process, you could pick up a fresh charge of static electricity. Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor. Fuel contains toxic substances.
 Keep the doors and windows closed while refueling the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.
Fuel tank capacity Refueling
WA R N I N G
A- Remove B- Close
WA R N I N G Since the fuel system may be under pres- sure, remove the fuel tank filler cap slowly. This relieves any pressure or vac-uum that might have built up in the fuel tank. If the cap is venting vapor or if you hear a hissing sound, wait until it stopsbefore removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you or others.

Cautions on handling of all-wheel drive vehicles
Features and controls 5-87
5
Set the drive mode-selector to “4WD LOCK” and then gradually depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start. Keep the pressure on the accelerator pedal asconstant as possible, and drive at low speed.
Your vehicle may not provide sufficient hill climbing ability and engine braking on steepslopes. Avoid driving on steep slopes even though the vehicle is a 4-wheel drive vehicle.
N00530800190
Since driving torque can
be applied to all four
wheels, the performance of the vehicle when operating in all-wheel drive is greatly affected by the condition of the tires. Pay close attention to the tires. Install specified tires on all wheels. Refer to “Tires and wheels” on page 11-5.  Be sure to fit all four tires and wheels of the same size and type.When replacement of any of the tires or wheels is necessary, replace all of them.  All tires should be rotated whenever the wear difference between the front and rear tires is recognizable.
NOTE
 The use of snow tires is recommended.  Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, avoid sudden braking, and use engine brak- ing (downshifting).CAUTION Avoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration, and sharp turning. Skidding occurs and con- trol of the vehicle could be lost.
Moving out of mud
CAUTION If any of the following conditions occur, fol- low these procedures:• The engine coolant temperature display appears on the information screen in the multi-information display or the engine power drops suddenly. Refer to “Engine overheating” on page 8-4.
• The “ ” warning display or the “ ” warning display appear on the information screen in the multi-information display. Refer to “Warning display” on page 5-64.WA R N I N G When attempting to rock your vehicle out of a stuck position, be sure that the area around the vehicle is clear of people and physical objects. The rocking motion may cause the vehicle to suddenly launch for- ward/backward, causing injury or dam-age to nearby people or objects.NOTE
 Avoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration and sharp turning; such operations couldresult in the vehicle becoming stuck.  If the vehicle becomes stuck in muddy roads, it can often be moved with a rocking motion. Move the selector lever alternately between “D” (DRIVE) and “R” (REVERSE) posi-tions, while pressing lightly on the accelera- tor pedal.CAUTION

Limited-slip differential (if so equipped) 5-88 Features and controls
5
Good vehicle performance cannot be expected if there is a difference in wear between tires. Refer to “Tire rotation” on page 9-23.  Check the tire inflation pressure regularly.
N00517400069
A limited-slip differential is applied for rear wheel differential. The features of this lim-ited-slip differential are described below: Just as with a conventional differential, the wheel on one side is allowed to turn at a dif- ferent speed from the wheel on the other sidewhen the vehicle is cornering. The difference between the limited-slip differential and a conventional differential is that if the wheelon one side of the vehicle loses traction, a greater amount of torque is applied to the wheel on the other side to improve traction.
CAUTION Always use tires of the same size, same type, and same brand, and which have no wear dif-ferences. Using tires that differ in size, type, brands or the degree of wear, will increase the differential oil temperature, resulting inpossible damage to the driving system. Fur- ther, the drive train will be subjected to excessive loading, possibly leading to oilleakage, component seizure, or other serious problems.
To w i n g
CAUTION Do not tow all-wheel drive vehicles with the front or rear wheels on the ground (Type Aor Type B) as illustrated. This could result in damage to the drivetrain, or unstable towing. If you tow all-wheel drive vehicles, use Type C or Type D equipment. [For vehicle equipped with the Electronically controlled 4WD system] Even in “2WD” mode, the vehicle cannot betowed with the front or the rear wheels on the ground.
Jacking up a all-wheel drive vehicles
WA R N I N G Do not start or run the engine while the vehicle is on the jack.The jack could slip out of position and result in an accident.
