HANDLING THE UNEXPECTED
HANDLING THE UNEXPECTED
Emergency Engine Stop*
The ENGINE START/STOP button may be used to stop the engine due to an
emergency situation even while driving. If you must stop the engine, cho\
ose one of
the following operations:
• Press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for
two seconds, or
• Firmly press the ENGINE START/STOP button two times.
The steering wheel will not lock. The power mode changes to ACCESSORY, unless
the shift lever is in Park (P), in which case the power mode changes t\
o VEHICLE OFF.
Because turning off the engine also disables the power assist the engine\
provides
to the steering and braking systems, it will require signifi cantly more physical effort
and time to steer and slow the vehicle. Downshift gears and use both fee\
t on the
brake pedal, if necessary, to slow the vehicle and stop immediately in a safe place.
Do not press the button while driving unless it is absolutely necessary \
for the engine
to be switched off.
Emergency Towing
Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.
Flat bed equipment: The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a tru\
ck. This is
the best way to transport your vehicle.
Wheel lift equipment: The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under\
the front
tires and lift them off the ground. The rear tires remain on the ground.\
This is an
acceptable way to tow your vehicle (2WD models only).
Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious dama\
ge. The
bumpers are not designed to support the vehicle’s weight.
Improper towing such as towing behind a motorhome or other motor vehicle\
can
damage the transmission.
NOTICE
*if equipped
Tire Pressure Monitoring System ( TPMS)
Monitors the tire pressure while you are driving.
If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes signifi cantly low,
the low tire pressure indicator comes on and a message
appears on the multi-information display.
What to Do Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire
pressure and adjust the pressure to the specifi ed
level. The specifi ed tire pressure is on a label on the
driver’s doorjamb.
TPMS CalibrationAny time you infl ate, change, or rotate one of more of the tires, you need to
recalibrate the system.
On vehicles with information display
Press and hold the TPMS button on the dashboard.
The TPMS indicator blinks, and calibration begins.
On vehicles with multi-information display (MID)
Use the buttons on the steering wheel to enter and operate the Vehicle Settings
menu (see page 30).
1. Scroll to the Vehicle Settings screen and enter the menu.
2. Select TPMS Calibration.
3. Select Calibrate. Calibration begins.
4. Exit the menu.
Driving on an extremely underinfl ated tire can cause it to overheat. An overheated
tire can fail. Always infl ate your tires to the specifi ed pressure.

Tire Information
To safely operate your vehicle, your tires must be of the proper type and\
size, in good
condition with adequate tread, and properly infl ated.
Inflation Guidelines
• Properly infl ated tires provide the best combination of handling, tread life, and comfort. Refer to the driver’s doorjamb label or the specifi cations (see page
140) for the specifi ed pressure.
• Underinfl ated tires wear unevenly, adversely affect handling and fuel economy, and are more likely to fail from overheating.
• Overinfl ated tires make your vehicle ride harshly, are more prone to road hazards, and wear unevenly.
• Every day before you drive, look at each of the tires. If one looks lowe\
r than the others, check the pressure with a tire gauge.
• Measure the air pressure when tires are cold. This means the vehicle has\
been parked for at least 3 hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km). If n\
ecessary, add
or release air until the specifi ed pressure is reached, and then calibrate the
system (see page 115). If checked when hot, tire pressure can be as mu\
ch as
4–6 psi (30–40 kPa, 0.3–0.5 kgf/cm
2) higher than checked when cold.
• At least once a month or before long trips, use a gauge to measure the p\
ressure in all tires, including the spare. Even tires in good condition can lose\
1–2 psi
(10–20 kPa, 0.1–0.2 kgf/cm
2) per month.
Inspection Guidelines
Every time you infl ate the tires, check for the following:
• Any damage to tires, including bumps, bulges, cuts, splits, or cracks in\
the side or tread. Remove any foreign objects and inspect for air leaks. Replace \
tires if
you see fabric or cord.
• Uneven or excessive tread wear. Have a dealer check the wheel alignment.
• Cracks or other damage around the valve stems.
Wear Indicators The groove where the wear indicator is located is
1/16 inch (1.6 mm) shallower than elsewhere on the
tire. If the tread has worn so low that the indicator is
exposed, replace the tire. Worn out tires have poor
traction on wet roads.
Example of a wear
indicator mark
Tire and Loading Information LabelThe label attached to the driver’s doorjamb provides necessary tire and
loading information. Using tires that are excessively worn or improperly infl ated can cause
a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner’s manual regarding tire infl
ation
and maintenance
.

Tire and Wheel Replacement
Replace your tires with radials of the same size, load range, speed rati\
ng, and
maximum cold tire pressure rating (as shown on the tire’s sidewall). Using tires
of a different size or construction can cause certain vehicle systems to\
work
incorrectly. It is best to replace all four tires at the same time. If that isn’\
t possible,
replace the front or rear tires in pairs.
If you change or replace a wheel, make sure that the wheel’s specifi cations match
those of the original wheels. Only use TPMS-specifi ed wheels approved for your
vehicle.
Installing improper tires on your vehicle can affect handling and stabil\
ity.
This can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.
Always use the size and type of tires recommended in the Owner’s Manual.
