standard equipment including the
maximum capacity of fuel, oil and
coolant, and if so equipped, air
conditioning and additional weight
optional engine.
.Extra load tire

loads and higher inflation pressure
than the corresponding standard
tire.
.Groove
The space between two adjacent
tread ribs.
.Innerliner

face of a tubeless tire that contains
the inflating medium within the tire.

cord material in the carcass.
.Intended outboard sidewall(1)The sidewall that contains a
whitewall, bears white lettering
or bears manufacturer, brand,
and/or model name molding that
is higher or deeper than the

ways face outward when mount-
ing on a vehicle.
.Light truck (LT) tire
A tire designated by its manufac-
turer as primarily intended for use
on lightweight trucks or multipur-
pose passenger vehicles.
.Load rating
The maximum load that a tire is
rated to carry for a given inflation
pressure.
.Maximum inflation pressure
The maximum cold inflation pres-
sure to which a tire may be inflated.
.Maximum load rating
The load rating for a tire at the
maximum permissible inflation
pressure for that tire.
.Maximum loaded vehicle weight
The sum of:
(a)Curb weight(b)Accessory weight(c)Vehicle capacity weight(d)Production options weight.Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
The maximum cold inflation pres-
sure to which a tire may be inflated.

GAS STATION REFERENCE
&Fuel
Useunleaded gasolinewith an octane rating of87 AKI (90RON) or higher.
&Fuel octane rating
This octane rating is the average of the Research Octane andMotor Octane numbers and is commonly referred to as theAntiKnock Index (AKI). Refer to“Fuel octane rating”F7-2.
&Fuel capacity
16.9 US gal (64 liters, 14.1 Imp gal)
&Engine oil
Use only the following oils..API classification SM or SN with the words“ENERGYCONSERVING”or“RESOURCE CONSERVING”.or ILSAC GF-4 or GF-5, which can be identified with theILSAC certification mark (Starburst mark)
For the complete viscosity requirements, refer to“Engine oil”F12-4.
&Engine oil capacity
6.9 US qt (6.5 liters, 5.7 Imp qt)
The indicated oil quantity is only a guideline and is estimatedbased on a case when the engine oil is changed with an oilfilter. After refilling the engine with oil, the oil level should bechecked using an oil level gauge. For more details aboutmaintenance and service, refer to“Engine oil”F11-7.
&Cold tire pressure
Refer to“Tires”F12-8.
