particular side that must always
face outward when mounting on a
vehicle.
.

or not).
.
Curb weight

maximum capacity of fuel, oil, and
coolant and air conditioning.
.

considered in curb weight or acces-
sory weight.
.
Vehicle capacity weight
The total weight of cargo, luggage
and occupants that can be added to

.
Vehicle maximum load on a tire
Load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each
axle its share of the maximum loaded
vehicle weight and dividing by two.
.
Vehicle normal load on a tire
Load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each

pant weight and dividing by two.
& Tire care –maintenance and
safety practices.
Check on a daily basis that the tires
are free from serious damage, nails,
and stones. At the same time, check
the tires for abnormal wear.
.
Inspect the tire tread regularly and
replace the tires before their tread
wear indicators become visible. When
a tire ’s tread wear indicator becomes
visible, the tire is worn beyond the
acceptable limit and must be replaced
immediately. With a tire in this condi-
tion, driving at even low speeds in wet
weather can cause the vehicle to
hydroplane. Possible resulting loss
of vehicle control can lead to an
accident.
.
To maximize the life of each tire
and ensure that the tires wear uni-
formly, it is best to rotate the tires
every 7,500 miles (12,500 km). Rotat-
ing the tires involves switching the
front and rear tires on the right-hand
side of the vehicle and similarly
switching the front and rear tires on
the left-hand side of the vehicle.
(Each tire must be kept on its original
side of the vehicle.) Replace any
damaged or unevenly worn tire at
the time of rotation. After tire rotation,
adjust the tire pressures and make
sure the wheel nuts are correctly
tightened. A tightening torque specifi-
cation and a tightening sequence

GAS STATION REFERENCE
&
Fuel:
! 2.5-liter non-turbo models
Use only unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI or
higher.
! 2.5-liter turbo models
Use premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 AKI
or higher. For temporary purposes if premium unleaded
gasoline is not available, you may use regular unleaded
gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI or higher. For optimum
engine performance and driveability, it is required that you use
premium grade unleaded gasoline.
! 3.0-liter models
Use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 AKI or
higher. Regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87
AKI or higher may be used. However for optimum engine
performance and driveability, it is recommended that you use
91 AKI or higher grade unleaded gasoline. You may experience
reduced output, poor accelerator response, and reduced fuel
economy when using gasoline with an octane rating lower than
91 AKI, depending on your driving habits and conditions. If you
experience any of these conditions while using a lower octane
rated fuel, you may want to return to using 91 AKI octane rated
fuel as soon as possible. Additionally, if your vehicle knocks
heavily or persistently, or if you are driving with heavy loads
such as when towing a trailer, the use of 91 AKI or higher grade
unleaded gasoline is required.
&
Fuel octane rating
This octane rating is the average of the Research Octane and
Motor Octane numbers and is commonly referred to as the Anti
Knock Index (AKI). Refer to “Fuel”section in this manual.&
Fuel capacity:
16.9 US gal (64 liters, 14.1 Imp gal)&
Engine oil:
Use only API classification SM with the words “ENERGY
CONSERVING ”and the ILSAC certification mark (starburst
mark) displayed on the container.&
Engine oil capacity:
2.5-liter models: 4.2 US qt (4.0 liters, 3.5 Imp qt)
3.0-liter models: 5.8 US qt (5.5 liters, 4.8 Imp qt)
