Break-in period
First 600 miles: Drive at varying
road and engine speeds; avoid
full throttle, rapid acceleration
or kick-down of transmission
Do not use special “break-in” oils
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)*
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
ABS self test*
A self-diagnostic test is performed
when starting; you may feel some
brake pedal pulsation and hear
some noise, this is normalTraction Control System*
Automatically applies and releases
brakes to prevent excessive wheel
spin at all speeds, especially when
accelerating on slippery surfaces
Tire economy and tips
Check pressure regularly when tires
are cold, maintain correct front-
end alignment and tire balance;
rotate tires at the mileage shown
in the Maintenance Guide; see
Owner’s Manual for rotation chart
Tire pressure
P205/60R1691H, P215/50R1793V
Front/rear: 32psi cold
Tips: Correct tire pressure ensures
safe handling and ride comfort
If you experience pull/drift while
driving, possible causes may
be road crown, tire pressure,
or wheel alignment
The suspension is sport-tuned
with firmer ride for optimum
handling and responseTire 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 miles;
chains may affect handling
Never exceed 30 mph with
tire chains
