Handling the Unexpected
1. Remove the center cap.
2. Place the flat tire face down in the compact
spare tire well.
3. Remove the spacer cone from the wing
bolt, flip it over, and insert it back on the
bolt. Secure the flat tire with the wing bolt.
4. Securely put the jack and wheel nut wrench
back in the tool case in the cargo area.
If you replace a flat tire with the spare tire, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator
comes on while you are driving. After driving for a few miles (kilometers), the
indicator will start blinking for a short time and then stay on. CHECK TPMS
SYSTEM appears on the multi-information display, but this is normal.
If you replace the tire with a specified regular tire, the warning message on the
multi-information display and the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator will go off after
a few miles (kilometers).

then open the hood.
1.Connect the first jumper cable to your
vehicle's + terminal.
2. Connect the other end of the first jumper
cable to the booster battery + terminal.
uUse a 12 volt booster battery only.
3. Connect the second jumper cable to the booster battery - terminal.
4. Connect the other end of the second
jumper cable to the grounding strap as
shown.
Do not connect this jumper cable to any other part.
5. If your vehicle is co nnected to another
vehicle, start the assisting vehicle's engine
and increase its rpm slightly.
6. Attempt to start your vehicle's engine. If it
turns over slowly, check that the jumper cables have good metal-to-metal contact.
■Jump Starting Procedure1Jump Starting
Securely attach the jumper cables clips so that they
do not come off when the engine vibrates. Also be
careful not to tangle the jumper cables or allow the
cable ends to touch each other while attaching or
detaching the jumper cables.
Battery performance degrades in cold conditions and
may prevent the engine from starting.
3WARNING
A battery can explode if you do not follow the correct procedure, seriously injuring anyone nearby.
Keep all sparks, open flames, and smoking
materials away from the battery.
