This placard shows the maximum number of occupants permit-
ted to ride in your vehicle as well as “the combined weight of
occupants and cargo” (A), which is called the vehicle capacity
weight. The weight of roof load is included in the definition of
“cargo” when determining the vehicle capacity weight. This
placard also tells you the size and recommended inflation pres-
sure for the original equipment tires on your vehicle. For more
information, refer to “Tires” on page 7-23.

5General information about your radio
N00733900442
Your vehicle’s radio receives both AM and FM stations.
The quality of your reception is affected by distance, obstacles,
and signal interference.
This radio complies with Part 15 of Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules (for vehicles sold in U.S.A.). Opera-
tion is subject to the following conditions:

The device may not cause harmful interference.

This device must accept any interference recieved, includ-
ing interference that may cause undesirable operation.
Signal transmissionFM signals do not follow the earth surface nor are they
reflected by the upper atmosphere. For this reason, FM broad-
casts cannot be received over long distances. AM signals fol-
low the earth’s surface and are reflected by the upper
atmosphere. For this reason, AM broadcasts can be received
over longer distances.Weak reception (fading)Because of the limited range of FM signals and the way FM
waves transmit, you may experience weak or fading FM recep-
tion. When the broadcast is blocked by mountains or similar
obstructions, reception can be disturbed.
CAUTION
!
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party meeting the above conditions could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Towing the vehicle by a tow truck
Towing with rear wheels off the ground (Type B)Set the gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) position.
Secure the steering wheel in a straight-ahead position with a
rope or tie-down strap.
CAUTION
!
This vehicle must not be towed by a tow truck using
sling lift type equipment (Type A) as illustrated.
Using a sling lift will damage the bumper and front
end.
Do not tow all-wheel drive vehicles with the front or
rear wheels on the ground (Type B or Type C) as
illustrated. This could result in the driving system
damage or vehicle may jump at the carriage.
If you tow all-wheel drive vehicles, use only Type D
or E equipment.
All-wheel-drive vehicles cannot be towed with only
the front or rear tires on the ground even if it is in
“2WD” drive mode.
Do not tow continuously variable transmission
(CVT) vehicles with the driving wheels on the
ground (Type B) as illustrated. If the vehicle is
towed like this, the continuously variable transmis-
sion (CVT) fluid may not reach all parts of the
transmission, thus damaging it.
If you tow CVT vehicles, use Type C, D or E equip-
ment.
If the manual transaxle is malfunctioning or dam-
aged, transport the vehicle with the driving wheels
on a carriage (Type C, D or E) as illustrated.

[For front-wheel drive vehicle equipped with the
active stability control (ASC)]
If the vehicle is towed with the ignition switch in the
“ON” position or the operation mode in ON and
only the front wheels or only the rear wheels raised
off the ground (Type B or C), the ASC may operate,
resulting in an accident. When towing the vehicle
with the rear wheels raised, turn the ignition switch
to “OFF” or “ACC” position or put the operation
mode in OFF or ACC. When towing the vehicle with
the front wheels raised, keep the ignition switch or
the operation mode as follows.
[Except for vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key]
The ignition switch is in “OFF” or “ACC” position.
[Vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key]
The operation mode is in OFF or ACC.
