undesirable odors from entering
the vehicle.

knob to adjust the volume of air
circulated in the vehicle.

engines have 16-gallon fuel tanks.
Octane Recommendations– Your vehicle is designed to use "Regular" unleaded gasoline
with pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87 for optimum performance. The use of gasoline
with lower octane ratings may degrade performance.
Tire Pressure– Your tire pressure is properly set at the dealership according to the
recommended specifications found on the Certification Label located on the front door
latch pillar on the driver’s side. Tire pressure information can also be found on the Tire
Information label located on the inside of the fuel filler door. Please check your tire
pressure during routine maintenance and seasonal changes.
Warning:Improperly inflated
tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, possibly resulting in loss of
vehicle control.
Fuses– If electrical components in the vehicle are not working, a fuse may have blown. For
more information about changing the fuse, please consult your Owner’s Guide.
Changing the Tires– If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily.
Instead, gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly and slowly move to
a safe place on the side of the road. Your vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire,
which is smaller than a regular tire and is designed for emergency use only.
