ESSENTIAL
INFORMATIONFEATURES
FUEL TYPE AND TANK CAPACITYYour fuel tank can accommodate approximately
17.5 gallons (66.2 L) of gasoline. Your vehicle is
designed to use unleaded gasoline with an
(R+M)/2 octane rating of 87.Using gasoline
with a lower octane rating may degrade
performance.
TIRE PRESSUREYour vehicle’s tire
pressure specifications are found on the
vehicle’s Safety Compliance Certification Label
located on the driver’s door jamb. Check your
tires for proper air pressure monthly; check the
air pressure in your spare tire every six months.
Always use an accurate tire pressure gauge.
Check the tire pressure when tires are cold,
after the vehicle has been parked for at least
three hours or has been driven less than three
miles. (As you drive, the temperature in the tire
warms up, increasing the tire pressure.)
Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle
handling and can fail suddenly, resulting in a
possible loss of vehicle control.
Refer to the
Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter in the
Owner’s Guide for further information.
FUSESIf the vehicle’s electrical components
are not operating, a fuse may have blown. The
fuse panel is located below the instrument

compartment. For more information regardingchanging fuses, refer to the Roadside
Emergencies chapter of your Owner’s Guide.
FUEL PUMP SHUTOFF SWITCHThe fuel pump shutoff switch stops the electric
