page 11-3. If driving in dusty/dirty
conditions, inspect the filter at each
engine oil change.
How to Inspect the Engine Air
Cleaner/Filter
To inspect the air cleaner/filter,
remove the filter from the vehicle
and lightly shake the filter to release
loose dust and dirt. If the filter
remains covered with dirt, a new
filter is required. Never use
compressed air to clean the filter.
1. Air Duct Clamp 2. Electrical Connector
3. Retaining Clips
1. Cover Cut Outs
2. Air Filter Tabs
To inspect or replace the engine air
cleaner/filter:
1. Open the hood. See
Hood on
page 10-4.
2. Locate the air filter housing on the front passenger side of the
engine compartment. See
Engine Compartment Overview
on page 10-5. 3. Disconnect the outlet duct by
loosening the air duct clamp (1).
4. Disconnect the electrical connector (2). First, remove the
connector lock clip at the bottom
of the connector, then press on
the top and bottom of the
connector to remove.
5. Lift the retaining clips (3) on the air filter housing.
6. Tilt and lift the cover slightly upward and slide the cover away
from outside edge of the vehicle.
Remove the air filter.
7. To install the air filter, place filter inside box where the pleats fit in
between the tabs inside the
lower box. Ensure that the cover
cut outs (1) on both sides match
the air filter tabs (2) on both
sides.
8. Replace air cleaner cover by inserting the four tabs into the
slots. Lower cover to meet
bottom of the box. Attach the
retaining clips (3).

Then check to see if the engine
cooling fans are running. If the
engine is overheating, both fans
should be running. If they are not,
do not continue to run the engine
and have the vehicle serviced.
{Caution
Running the engine without
coolant may cause damage or a
fire. Vehicle damage would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
If Steam Is Coming from the
Engine Compartment
{Warning
Steam from an overheated engine
can burn you badly, even if you
just open the hood. Stay away
from the engine if you see or hear
steam coming from it. Just turn it
off and get everyone away from
the vehicle until it cools down.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Wait until there is no sign of
steam or coolant before you open
the hood.
If you keep driving when the
engine is overheated, the liquids
in it can catch fire. You or others
could be badly burned. Stop the
engine if it overheats, and get out
of the vehicle until the engine
is cool.
If No Steam Is Coming from
the Engine Compartment
If an engine overheat warning is
displayed but no steam can be seen
or heard, the problem may not be
too serious. Sometimes the engine
can get a little too hot when the
vehicle:
.Climbs a long hill on a hot day.
.Stops after high-speed driving.
.Idles for long periods in traffic.
.Tows a trailer.
If the overheat warning displays with
no sign of steam:
1. Turn the air conditioning off.
2. Turn the heater on to the highest temperature and to the highest
fan speed. Open the windows as
necessary.
3. When it is safe to do so, pull off the road, shift to P (Park) or
N (Neutral), and let the
engine idle.
If the temperature overheat gauge is
no longer in the overheat zone or an
overheat warning no longer
displays, the vehicle can be driven.
Continue to drive the vehicle slowly
for about 10 minutes. Keep a safe
vehicle distance from the vehicle in
front. If the warning does not come
back on, continue to drive normally
and have the cooling system
checked for proper fill and function.
If the warning continues, pull over,
stop, and park the vehicle
right away.

{Warning
Liquids from environment or
spillage and/or tools placed on
top of or used in the underhood
electrical center while the cover is
removed can pose a risk of
electrical shock/burn to anyone in
the vicinity. These conditions can
also cause damage to electrical
components on the vehicle. Keep
liquids and tools away from the
underhood electrical center when
the cover is removed.
2. Unlatch the three clips and lift upthe underhood electrical center
cover to remove.
Passenger Side
The removal of the air filter/cleaner
assembly and base is required for
the replacement of one of these
bulbs:
1. Open the hood. See Hood on
page 10-4.
2. Remove the air cleaner/filter cover. See Engine Air Cleaner/
Filter on page 10-10. 3. Lift the air cleaner/filter base to
disengage from the three pins.
Low-Beam Headlamps/Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL),
High-Beam Headlamps (Base)
1. From the back side of theheadlamp assembly, remove the
top cap to replace the low-beam
headlamp/DRL bulb.

The Tire and Loading
Information label on the vehicle
indicates the original equipment
tires and the correct cold tire
inflation pressures. The
recommended pressure is the
minimum air pressure needed to
support the vehicle's maximum
load carrying capacity. See
Vehicle Load Limits on
page 9-9.
How the vehicle is loaded
affects vehicle handling and ride
comfort. Never load the vehicle
with more weight than it was
designed to carry.
When to Check
Check the tires once a month or
more. Do not forget the compact
spare, if the vehicle has one.
The cold compact spare tire
pressure should be at 420 kPa
(60 psi). SeeCompact Spare
Tire on page 10-78. How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type
gauge to check tire pressure.
Proper tire inflation cannot be
determined by looking at the tire.
Check the tire inflation pressure
when the tires are cold, meaning
the vehicle has not been driven
for at least three hours or no
more than 1.6 km (1 mi).
Remove the valve cap from the
tire valve stem. Press the tire
gauge firmly onto the valve to
get a pressure measurement.
If the cold tire inflation pressure
matches the recommended
pressure on the Tire and
Loading Information label, no
further adjustment is necessary.
If the inflation pressure is low,
add air until the recommended
pressure is reached. If the
inflation pressure is high, press
on the metal stem in the center
of the tire valve to release air.Recheck the tire pressure with
the tire gauge.
Return the valve caps on the
valve stems to prevent leaks
and keep out dirt and moisture.
Tire Pressure for
High-Speed Operation
{Warning
Driving at high speeds, 160 km/h
(100 mph) or higher, puts an
additional strain on tires.
Sustained high-speed driving
causes excessive heat buildup
and can cause sudden tire failure.
You could have a crash and you
or others could be killed. Some
high-speed rated tires require
inflation pressure adjustment for
high-speed operation. When
speed limits and road conditions
are such that a vehicle can be
driven at high speeds, make sure
