SPORT MODE
• In Sport mode, the engine is more responsive to the throttle pedal, and provides
more power by increasing turbo boost.
• Steering feedback is also improved, and steering effort is slightly higher.
• Sport mode driving is useful while driving on winding roads where more steering
precision is desired.
To activate Sport Mode
• Press the SPORT button, located
above the climate controls.
• Momentarily release the accelerator
pedal.
• Press the accelerator pedal again to
activate.
NOTE:
• Once SPORT mode is activated, a
“SPORT” message will be displayed in
the instrument cluster.
• For maximum aerodynamics and han-
dling, your vehicle has a lowered ride
height. Use caution when entering steep driveways and parking spaces to pre-
vent damage.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
• Be sure the transmission is in first gear, not third, when starting from a standing
position. Damage to the clutch can result from starting in third gear.
• Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal, and never try to hold the
vehicle on a hill with the clutch pedal partially engaged. This will cause abnormal
wear on the clutch.
NOTE:
• Never shift into REVERSE until the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
• During cold weather, until the transmission lubricant is warm, you may experience
slightly higher shift efforts. This is normal and not harmful to the transmission.

Sealing A Tire With TIREFIT
(A) Whenever You Stop To Use TIREFIT:
1. Pull over to a safe location and turn on the vehicle’s Hazard Warning flashers.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the deflated tire) is in a position that
is near to the ground. This will allow the TIREFIT Hoses (6) and (7) to reach the
valve stem and keep the TIREFIT kit flat on the ground. This will provide the best
positioning of the kit when injecting the sealant into the deflated tire and running
the air pump. Move the vehicle as necessary to place the valve stem in this posi-
tion before proceeding.
3. Place the transmission in PARK (auto transmission) or in Gear (manual transmis-
sion) and cycle the ignition to the OFF position.
4. Set the parking brake.
(B) Setting Up To Use TIREFIT:
1. Turn the Mode Select Knob (5) to the Sealant Mode position.
2. Uncoil the Sealant Hose (6) and then remove the cap from the fitting at the end
of the hose.
3. Place the TIREFIT kit flat on the ground next to the deflated tire.
4. Remove the cap from the valve stem and then screw the fitting at the end of the
Sealant Hose (6) onto the valve stem.
5. Uncoil the Power Plug (8) and insert the plug into the vehicle’s 12 Volt power
outlet.
6. Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) from the tire.
(C) Injecting TIREFIT Sealant Into The Deflated Tire:
• Always start the engine before turning ON the TIREFIT kit.
NOTE:Manual transmission vehicles must have the parking brake engaged and the shift lever inNEUTRAL.
• After pressing the Power Button (4), the sealant (white fluid) will flow from the
Sealant Bottle (1) through the Sealant Hose (6) and into the tire.
NOTE:Sealant may leak out through the puncture in the tire.
•If the sealant (white fluid) does not flow within 0 – 10seconds
through the Sealant Hose (6):
1.Press the Power Button (4) to turn Off the TIREFIT kit. Disconnect the Sealant Hose
(6) from the valve stem. Make sure the valve stem is free of debris. Reconnect the
Sealant Hose (6) to the valve stem. Check that the Mode Select Knob (5) is in the
Sealant Mode position and not Air Mode. Press the Power Button (4) to turn On the
TIREFIT kit.
