Driving tips
Chain installation
When installing chains, follow the manu-
facturer's instructions and mount them as
tightly as you can. Drive slowly with
chains installed. If you hear the chains
contacting the body or chassis, stop and
tighten them. If they still make contact,
slow down until it stops. Remove the
chains as soon as you begin driving on
cleared roads.
CAUTION
Make sure the snow chains arethe correct size and type for yourtires. Incorrect snow chains cancause damage to the vehicle body and suspension and may not becovered by your vehicle manufac-turer warranty. Also, the snow chain connecting hooks may bedamaged from contacting vehiclecomponents causing the snowchains to come loose from the tire. Make sure the snow chainsare SAE class “S” certified. Cable-type, or plastic-type snow chain can also be used.
Always check chain installation for proper mounting after drivingapproximately 0.5 to 1 km to ensure safe mounting. Retightenor remount the chains if they areloose.
WARNING
When mounting snow chains, park
the vehicle on level ground away
from traffic. Turn on the vehicle
Hazard Warning flashers and place
a triangular emergency warning
device behind the vehicle if avail-
able. Always place the vehicle in
park (P), apply the parking brake
and turn off the engine before
installing snow chains.
WARNING
- Tire chains
The use of chains may adversely affect vehicle handling.
Do not exceed 20 mph (30 km/h) or the chain manufacturer’s rec-
ommended speed limit, whichev-
er is lower.
Drive carefully and avoid bumps, holes, sharp turns, and other road
hazards, which may cause the
vehicle to bounce.
Avoid sharp turns or locked- wheel braking.
Chains that are the wrong size or improperly installed can damage
your vehicle's brake lines, sus-
pension, body and wheels.
Stop driving and retighten the chains any time you hear them
hitting the vehicle.

remaining two buttons may now be
programmed if this has not previously
been done. Refer to the
“Programming” portion of this text.
Operating HomeLink To operate, simply press the pro-
grammed HomeLink button. Activation
will now occur for the trained product

lock, estate gate, or home or office light-
ing). For convenience, the hand-held
transmitter of the device may also be
used at any time. The HomeLink
Wireless Controls System (once pro-
grammed) or the original hand-held
transmitter may be used to activate the
device (e.g. garage door, entry door lock,
etc.). In the event that there are still pro-
gramming difficulties, contact HomeLink

HomeLink is now in the train (or learning)
mode and can be programmed at any
time.

In case of an emergency86If you do not have a spare, use a fuse ofthe same rating from a circuit you maynot need for operating the vehicle, suchas the radio or room lamp fuse.If the headlights or other electrical com-
ponents do not work and the fuses are
OK, check the fuse block in the engine
compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must
be replaced. To check the fuse or relay in the engine
compartment, remove the engine com-
partment shroud.
1. Turn the ignition switch and all other
switches off.
2. Remove the fuse box cover by remov- ing the bolt on the cover and unhook-
ing the tab on one end and tilting the
cover back toward the other end.
3. Check the fuses. If one is blown, replace it with a new one of the same
rating.
✽ ✽NOTICEAfter checking the fuse box in the engine
compartment, securely install the fuse
box cover. If not, electrical failures may
occur from water leaking in.

Power connectorYour vehicle is equipped with a power connector to prevent bat-
tery discharge if your vehicle is parked without being operated
for prolonged periods. Use the following procedures before
parking the vehicle for prolonged period.
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Turn off the headlights and tail lights.
3. Open the driver-side knee bolster cover and pull up the
“POWER/CONN”.✽ ✽NOTICE• If the power connector is pulled up from the fuse panel, the
warning chime, AV system, clock and intetrior lamps, etc.,
will not operate. Some items must be reset after replace-
ment.
• Even though the power connector is pulled up, the battery can still be discharged by operation of the headlights or
other electrical devices.

In case of an emergency16
6 Use a towing strap less than 16 feet (5
m) long. Attach a white or red cloth
(about 12 inches (30 cm) wide) in the
middle of the strap for easy visibility.
Drive carefully so that the towing strap is not loosened during towing.
When your vehicle is being towed
by another vehicle other than a
tow truck (In case of an emer-
gency) Turn the ignition switch to ACC so thesteering wheel isn’t locked.
Place the transaxle shift lever in N (Neutral).
Release the parking bake.
Vehicle equipped with automatic transaxles should not exceed 28 mph
(45 km/h) and should not be towed
more than 50 miles (80 km).
Press the brake pedal with more force than normal since you will have
reduced brake performance.
More steering effort will be required because the power steering system
will be disabled.
If you are driving down a long hill, the brakes may overheat and brake per-
formance will be reduced. Stop often
and let the brakes cool off.
Tips for towing a stuck vehicleThe following methods are effective
when your vehicle is stuck in mud, sand
or similar substances that prevent the
vehicle from being driven out under its
own power.
Remove the soil and sand, etc. fromthe front and the back of the tires.
Place a stone or wood under the tires.
1GHA4107
CAUTION
To prevent internal damage to the transaxle, never tow your vehiclefrom the rear (backwards) with allfour tires in contact with the sur- face.

In case of an emergency22
6IF YOU HAVE A FLAT TIRE The spare tire, jack, jack handle,
and wheel lug nut wrench are stored
in the trunk compartment. Move the
carpeting out of the way to reach this
equipment.
The jack assembly is located in the
trunk, under the carpeting, on the
spare tire. Removing the spare tire
Turn the tire hold-down wing bolt
counterclockwise.
Store the tire in the reverse order of
removal.
To prevent the spare tire and tools
from “rattling” while the vehicle is in
motion, store them properly.Important - use of compact spare
tire (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a com-
pact spare tire. This compact spare
tire takes up less space than a regu-
lar-size tire. This tire is smaller than a
conventional tire and is designed for
temporary use only.
OGH046010N
1GHA407
CAUTION
- Compact spare
You should drive carefully
when the compact spare is inuse. The compact spareshould be replaced by theproper conventional tire andrim at the first opportunity.
The operation of this vehicle is not recommended withmore than one compact sparetire in use at the same time.

In case of an emergency
4. Remove the wheel lug nut wrench,jack, jack handle, and spare tire
from the vehicle.
5. Block both the front and rear of the wheel that is diagonally opposite
the jack position. 6. Wrap a piece of cloth around the
tip of the screwdriver to avoid
scratching.
7. Insert a screwdriver into the notch of the wheel cover and pry gently
to remove the wheel cover (if
equipped).
WARNING
- Changing a tire
To prevent vehicle movementwhile changing a tire, always
set the parking brake fully, and
always block the wheel diago-
nally opposite the wheel being
changed.
It is recommended that the wheels of the vehicle be
chocked, and that no person
should remain in a vehicle that
is being jacked.
