TRACTION
ENGAGED
Your vehicle has a traction control system that limits wheel spin. This is
especially useful in slippery road conditions. The traction control system
works at all speeds. It limits wheel spin by reducing engine torque by
closing the throttle and applying the rear brakes. You may feel the system
working, or you may notice some noise, but this is normal. You may also
feel the accelerator pedal push back against your foot.

The “Traction Control” warning light lets you know when there is a
problem with your traction control system, unless your system is turned
off. When this light is on,
you have no automatic wheel spin protection.
Adjust your driving accordingly. If you can’t get the light off after
recycling the ignition, have your car serviced.

If you’re going uphill

If there is no curb when you’re parking uphill on the left side of a
one-way street, your wheels should be turned to the left.
Torque Lock (Automatic Transmission)
If you are parking on a hill and you don’t shift your transmission into “P”
(Park) properly, the weight of the vehicle may put too much force on the
parking pawl in the transmission. You may find it difficult to pull the shift
lever out of “P” (Park). This is called “torque lock.”
To prevent torque
lock, always be sure to shift into “P’, (Park) properly before you leave the
driver’s seat. To find out how, see “Shifting Into ‘P’ (Park)” in the Index.

Tighten the wheel nuts firmly in a criss-cross sequence as shown.
A CAUTION:
A wheel can become loose and even come off if the wheel nuts
aren’t tightened properly. This could lead to an accident. Stop
as soon as you can and have the wheel nuts tightened with a
torque wrench.
Don’t try to put a wheel cover on your compact spare tire. It won’t fit.

After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and rear inflation
pressure as shown on the Tire-Loading Information label. Make certain
that all wheel nuts are properly tightened. See “Wheel Nut Torque” in the
Index.
A CAUTION:
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to which it is fastened,
can make wheel nuts become loose after a time. The wheel could
come
off and cause an accident. When you change a wheel,
remove any rust
or dirt from places where the wheel attaches to
the vehicle. In an emergency, you can use
a cloth or a paper towel
to do this; but be sure to use a scraper
or wire brush later, if you
need to, to get all the rust
or dirt off. (See “Changing a Flat Tire”
in the Index.)
