• This light indicates the ESC system has been turned off by the driver .
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
51

•When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect orsignal low tire pressure as intended .TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that pre-
vent the TPMS from functioning properly .Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after
replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly .
NOTE:
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air temperature
change.Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in the
Winter .Example: If garage temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature is
32°F (0°C), then the cold tire inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa),
which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle .
Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement
equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style .Aftermarket wheels can cause
sensor damage .Do not use tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is
equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.
BRAKE- Brake Warning Light
• The Brake Warning light illuminates when there is either a system malfunction or the
parking brake is applied. If the light is on and the parking brake is not applied, it indicates
a possible brake hydraulic malfunction, brake booster problem or an Anti-Lock Brake
System problem.
• Please have your vehicle serviced immediately .
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may
have failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle .You could have a collision. Have the
vehicle checked immediately .
- 12 Volt Charging System Light
•This light shows the status of the 12 Volt electrical charging system .If the charging system light
remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging system .
•We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately .

- Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
•This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS).
• If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, we recommend
you drive to the nearest authorized studio immediately and have the vehicle serviced
immediately .
- Air Bag Warning Light
•If the light is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the vehicle
serviced by an authorized studio immediately .
TIREFIT KIT
•Your vehicle may be equipped with a TIREFIT kit. The TIREFIT kit is located under the
front driver’s seat.
• Small punctures up to 1/4 in (6 mm) in the tire tread can be sealed with TIREFIT .Foreign
objects (e .g., screws or nails) should not be removed from the tire .TIREFIT can be used
in outside temperatures down to approximately -4°F (-20°C) .
• This kit will provide a temporary tire seal, allowing you to drive your vehicle up to
100 miles (160 km) with a maximum speed of 55 mph (88 km/h).
TIREFIT Storage
• The TIREFIT kit is located in the rear cargo area.

ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE SYSTEM
•In the event of an impact causing air bag deployment, if the communication network andpower remains intact, depending on the nature of the event, the ORC will determine
whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following functions:
• Disable the high voltage battery .
• Place the transmission into PARK.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the 12 Volt battery has power or until the ignition key is
turned off.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the 12 Volt battery has power or
until the ignition key is removed.
• Unlock the doors automatically .
•
In order to move your vehicle to the side of the road the transmission must be in NEUTRAL and the 12 Volt system must be functional .To place the transmission into NEUTRAL you must
turn the ignition OFF and then back to the RUN position (cycle the ignition) then press the
NEUTRAL button .
NOTE:
The high voltage battery will remain disabled after an Enhanced Accident Response Event
and must be reset by your authorized studio .
FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
•If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved using a
rocking motion. Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the front
wheels. Then shift back and forth between DRIVE and REVERSE while gently pressing
the accelerator .Use the least amount of accelerator pedal pressure that will maintain the
rocking motion, without spinning the wheels.
NOTE:
Press the “ESC Off ” switch, to place the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system in “Partial
Off ” mode, before rocking the vehicle .Refer to “Electronic Brake Control” in “Starting And
Operating” for further information. Once the vehicle has been freed, press the “ESC Off ”
switch again to restore “ESC On” mode .
CAUTION!
•When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by shifting between DRIVE and REVERSE, do not
spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may result.
• Spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission overheating and failure .It can
also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels above 30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear .
