Convenience

Fuel Tank Capacity
and Fuel Info
Your vehicle has a 15.4
gallon (58.5L) fuel
tank capacity. Use only
UNLEADED gasoline
blended with a maximum
of 15% ethanol and a
minimum octane rating
of 87. Do not use fuel
ethanol (E85), diesel,
fuel-methanol, leaded
fuel or any other fuel
because it could damage
or impair the emission
control system.
Easy Fuel® System
With this system, you
simply open the fuel door,
insert the nozzle and begin
fueling. It is self-sealing
and therefore protected
against dust, dirt, water,
snow and ice.
Wait 5–10 seconds from
the time the refueling
nozzle is shut-off until you
remove the nozzle from the
vehicle to allow residual
fuel in the nozzle to drain
into the tank. When using
a portable fuel container,
slowly insert the fuel funnel
(located in the spare tire
compartment), and pour
the fuel into the funnel.
Note: Do not use
aftermarket funnels as they
do not work with the Easy
Fuel system and may cause
damage. Properly clean the
funnel after each use.Location of

Your spare tire and tools
are beneath the carpeted
load floor in the rear of your
vehicle. The spare tire is
designed for emergency
use only and should
be replaced as soon as
possible. For complete
details on changing your
tire, refer to the Changing a
Road Wheel section in the
Wheels and Tires chapter
of your Owner’s Manual.

Monitoring System

tire pressure warning light in your instrument
cluster when one or more
of your tires are significantly
under-inflated. If this
happens, stop and check
your tires as soon as
possible. Inflate them to
the proper pressure.
Refer to the Inflating Your
Tires section in the Wheels
and Tires chapter of

Fuel-efficient
Transmission
Your vehicle has been
designed to improve fuel
economy by reducing fuel
usage while coasting or
decelerating. This may
be perceived as a light to
medium braking sensation
when removing your foot

the window.
Front and Rear
Sensing System*
This system sounds an
audible warning tone if
there is an obstacle near
the vehicle’s front or rear

moves closer to the
obstacle, the rate of the
warning tone increases
in frequency. The front
sensors are automatically
activated when the vehicle
is in drive (D) and the
vehicle speed is below
6 mph (10 km/h). The
system can detect
objects up to 27 inches
(70 centimeters) away
from the front of the
vehicle and about 14 inches
(35 centimeters) to the
side of the front end.

Essential Information continued
The rear sensors are active
only when the vehicle is
in reverse (R), and can
detect objects up to 6 feet
(1.8 meters) away, with
decreased coverage at
the outer corners of the
bumper). See the Parking
Aids chapter in your Owner’s
Manual for complete
information on your
vehicle’s sensing systems.

not replace the need to
watch where the vehicle
is moving. Refer to your
Owner’s Manual for safety
information, more details
and limitations.
