WARNING!

nt in all exhaust gases. If you ever smell exhaust
fumes inside the vehicle, make sure the passenger compartment is ventila\
ted, and immediately return the vehicle to your
retailer for correction.

Fuel requirements
WARNING!
Driving with the tailgate open: Driving with the tailgate open could lead to poisonous exhaust gases e\
ntering the
passenger compartment. If the tailgate must be kept open for any reason,\
proceed as follows:
l Close the windows
l Set the ventilation system control to air flow to floor, windshield and \
side windows and blower control to its highest
setting.
Weight distribution affects handling
At the specified curb weight your vehicle has a tendency to understeer, \
which means that the steering wheel has to be
turned more than might seem appropriate for the curvature of a bend. Thi\
s ensures good stability and reduces the risk of
rear wheel skid. Remember that these properties can alter with the vehic\
le load. The heavier the load in the cargo area, the
less the tendency to understeer.
Handling, roadholding
Vehicle load, tire design and inflation pressure all affect vehicle hand\
ling. Therefore, check that the tires are inflated to the
recommended pressure according to the vehicle load. See "Tire pressure" \
section. Loads should be distributed so that
capacity weight or maximum permissible axle loads are not exceeded.
Conserving electrical current
Keep the following in mind to help minimize battery drain:
l When the engine is not running, avoid turning the ignition key to positi\
on II (see page 121). Many electrical systems
(the audio system, the optional infotainment/ navigation systems, power\
windows, etc) will function with the ignition key
in position I. This position reduces drain on the battery.
l Please keep in mind that using systems, accessories, etc that consume a \
great deal of current when the engine is not
running could result in the battery being completely drained.
NOTE: A warning message will be displayed in the text window in the instrumen\
t panel when the battery charge is low.
