Cargo Area
Driving Tips
Spare tire
1. Temporary spare tire
Stored under vehicle; to change
flat tire: Follow instructions in
Owner’s Manual.
WARNING: Do not exceed
50 mph with temporary spare.
Tip: For instructions
and restrictions on use
of temporary spare tire,
see Owner’s Manual.
Gas cap
After filling vehicle with gasoline,
fully reinstall gas cap by turning
clockwise until a clicking sound is
heard, if gas cap is not fully installed,
Check Engine light and/or gas cap
indicator light may come on.
For more information on Check
Engine light, see Owner’s Manual.
Tire economy and tipsCheck tire pressure monthly when
tires are cold, use a digital tire
pressure gauge for accurate tire
pressure measurement.
Tires should be of the same
type and size.
Maintain correct front-end alignment
and tire balance; rotate tires at
5,000 or 7,500 mile intervals; see
Owner’s Manual for rotation chart.
Tire pressure Decal on Driver’s B-pillar provides
tire pressure information.
Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)
Warning light illuminates for a
few seconds after ignition is on.
If tire pressure is too low in one
or more tires, warning light will
illuminate and beeper will sound;
flashing warning light indicates
possible malfunction; dealer
inspection required.
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 normal.
Traction Control System (TCS)
Enhances traction and safety
by regulating engine torque.
When TCS detects drive wheel
slippage it lowers engine torque
to prevent loss of traction.
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
Controls braking and engine
torque in conjunction with ABS
and TCS to help control side slip
on slippery surfaces or during
sudden or evasive maneuvering.
Roll Stability Control (RSC)
System determines when corrective
action is needed; by controlling
engine torque and braking on
each wheel.
*Denotes optional equipment†See Owner’s Manual
UNDER HOOD

rpm in Park or Neutral.
Tip: Follow similar procedures
with newly overhauled engine
or when brakes are replaced.
Maintenance notes:
Rotate tires every 7,500
miles or sooner if needed.
Replace cabin air filter every
25,000 miles or 24 months.

100,000 miles.
Inspect drive belts every 105,000
miles; replace every 150,000 miles.
Replace (FL22) engine
coolant at 120,000 miles.
WARNING: Using coolant other
than FL22 requires more frequent
maintenance intervals.Tip: For additional service
intervals and complete
details, see Owner’s Manual.

fluid level dipstick
Fluid Hot scale A
Fluid above 150
oF, level
must be between full
