NOTE:
•The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light”
come on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
•Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC system will be ON even if it
was turned off previously.
•ESC Activation/Malfunction Light can blink during a ESC or TC intervention.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the ve-
hicle placard or tire inflation pressure label.(If your vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated.Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure.Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping ability.
IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRESSURE, ADJUST
THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE LOW TIRE TO THE AIR PRESSURE SHOWN ON THE
VEHICLE PLACARD OR TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE LABEL LOCATED ON THE
DRIVER'S DOOR.
NOTE:
AFTER INFLATION, THE VEHICLE MAY NEED TO BE DRIVEN FOR 20 MINUTES
BEFORE THE FLASHING LIGHT WILL TURN OFF.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly.The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with
the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one min-
ute and then remain continuously illuminated.This sequence will continue upon subse-
quent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.When the malfunction indicator
is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as in-
tended.TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent 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.

8.Finish tightening the bolts.Push down on the wrench while tightening the wheel bolts.
Alternate bolts until each bolt has been tightened twice.The correct wheel bolt
torque is 63 ft lbs (86 N·m) for steel wheels and 89 ft lbs (120 N·m) for aluminum
wheels.If you doubt that you have tightened the bolts correctly, have them checked
with a torque wrench by your authorized dealer or service station.
9.Disassemble the jack and tools and place them in the in the rear cargo area.
10.Place the deflated (flat) tire in the cargo area.Have the tire repaired or replaced as
soon as possible.
11.Check the spare tire pressure as soon as possible.Correct the tire pressure as re-
quired.
Spare Tire Stowage
•Reverse instructions of the spare removal section.
•Rotate the jack wrench tool on the winch drive nut clockwise until effort becomes
heavy and an audible click is heard indicating the spare is properly stowed.
CAUTION!
•The winch mechanism is designed for use with the jack extension tube only.Use
of an air wrench or other power tools is not recommended and they can damage
the winch.
•Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by jacking on locations other than those indi-
cated in the Jacking Instructions for this vehicle.
•Be sure to mount the spare tire with the valve stem facing outward.The vehicle
could be damaged if the spare tire is mounted incorrectly.

5.Start the engine in the vehicle that has the booster battery, let the engine idle a few
minutes, and then start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged battery.
6.Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cables in the reverse sequence:
•Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1.Disconnect the negative(-)jumper cable from the negative(-)battery cable terminal
of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
2.Disconnect the opposite end of the negative(-)jumper cable from the negative(-)
post of the booster battery.
3.Disconnect the positive(+)jumper cable from the positive(+)post of the booster
battery.
4.Disconnect the opposite end of the positive(+)jumper cable from the positive(+)
post of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
NOTE:
The negative(-)battery cable must be connected to the negative(-)post of the battery.
Follow these steps to connect the negative(-)battery cable:
1.Connect the negative(-)battery terminal to the negative(-)post of the battery.
2.Push inward on the negative(-)battery cable terminal release lever to the closed
position.
•If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle, you should have the battery
and charging system inspected at your authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
•Accessories that can be plugged into the vehicle power outlets draw power from
the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.).Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from starting.
•Do not use a portable battery booster pack or any other booster source with a
system voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to the battery, starter motor, alter-
nator or electrical system may occur.
•Failure to follow these procedures could result in damage to the charging system
of the booster vehicle or the discharged vehicle.
