DRIVING
DRIVING
Learn about preparation for driving, as well as other features.
Before Driving
Check the following items before you begin driving.
Exterior Checks
• 
Make sure there are no obstructions on the windows, door mirrors, exterior 
lights, or other parts of the vehicle.
•  Remove any frost, snow, or ice.
•  Make sure the hood is securely closed.
• 
Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite flammable materials left under 
the hood, causing a fire. If you’ve parked your vehicle for an extended period, 
inspect and remove any debris that may have collected, such as dried grass 
and leaves that have fallen or have been carried in for use as a nest by a small 
animal. Also check under the hood for leftover flammable materials after you or 
someone else has performed maintenance on your vehicle.
•  Make sure the tires are in good condition.
• 
Make sure there are no people or objects behind or around the vehicle.
Interior Checks • 
Store or secure all items on board properly.
• Do not pile items higher than the seat height.
• Do not place anything in the front seat footwells. Make sure to secure the floor 
mats.
• 
If you have any animals on board, do not let them move freely around in the 
vehicle.
•  Securely close and lock all doors and the tailgate.
•  Adjust your seating position, mirrors, and steering wheel properly.
• 
Make sure items placed on the floor behind the front seats cannot roll under the 
seats.
• 
Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
•  Make sure that the indicators in the instrument panel come on when you s\
tart
the vehicle, and go off soon after.
DRIVING
If the doors are frozen shut, use warm water around the door edges to melt any 
ice. Do not try to force them open, as this can damage the rubber trim around the 
doors. When done, wipe dry to avoid further freezing.
NOTICE
Maximum Load Limit
Carrying too much cargo or improperly storing it can affect your vehicle\
’s handling,
stability, stopping distance, and tires, and make it unsafe. 
The maximum load for your vehicle is 1,340 lbs (608 kg). See the Tire and Loading 
Information label on the driver’s doorjamb.
Improper accessories or modifications can affect your vehicle’s handling, and 
stability, and performance, and cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt 
or killed.
Follow all instructions in the vehicle owner’s manual regarding accessories and
modifications.
WARNING
In addition:
• During the first 600 miles (1,000 km) of operation, avoid sudden acceleration or 
full throttle operation so as to not damage the engine or powertrain.
• 
Avoid hard braking for the first 200 miles (300 km). You should also follow this 
when the brake pads are replaced.
Label example
The headlight aim on your vehicle was set by the factory, and does not need to be 
adjusted. However, if you regularly carry heavy items in the cargo area or pull a
trailer, have the aiming readjusted at your dealer or by a qualified technician.
Overloading or improper loading can affect handling and stability and cause a 
crash in which you can be hurt or killed.
Follow all load limits and other loading guidelines in this guide.

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, choose 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.
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 truck. 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.
Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. 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
NOTICE
*if equipped
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 to VEHICLE OFF.
Because turning off the engine also disables the power assist the engine provides 
to the steering and braking systems, it will require significantly more physical effort 
and time to steer and slow the vehicle. Downshift gears and use both feet 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.
Driving on an extremely underinflated tire can cause it to overheat. An overheated 
tire can fail. Always inflate your tires to the specified pressure.
NOTICE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Monitors the tire pressure while you are driving.
If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes significantly 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 specified
level. The specified tire pressure is on a label on the 
driver’s doorjamb.
Changing a Flat Tire
If a tire goes flat while driving, grasp the steering wheel firmly, and brake gradually 
to reduce speed. Then, stop in a safe place. Replace the flat tire wit\
h the compact
spare tire. Go to a dealer as soon as possible to have the full-size tire repaired or 
replaced.
Getting Ready to Change the Tire
Park the vehicle on a firm, level, non-slippery surface. Apply the parking brake, 
shift to Park (P), and turn the vehicle off. Turn on the hazard warning lights.
1. Open the tailgate. Turn on the cargo lights if
necessary (see page 39). Remove the floor mat
under the second-row seat.
2. Pull up the floor carpet.
3. Lift up the floor lid using the handle and remove it.
4. Take the tool case out of the spare tire well. Take
the jack and wheel nut wrench out of the tool
case.
