Learn about the indicators, gauges, and displays related to driving the vehicle. Indicators briely appear with each engine start and then go out. Red and amber 
indicators are most critical. Blue and green indicators are used for general information.
Malfunction Indicators
These are the most critical indicators. If they come on and stay lit while driving or at 
any other time, there may be a problem. See your dealer if necessary.
Brake system
• Brake luid is low.• The brake system has a problem.Press the brake pedal lightly to check pedal pressure. If normal, check 
the brake luid level when you stop. If abnormal, take immediate action. If 
necessary, downshift the transmission to slow the vehicle using engine
braking. Have your vehicle repaired immediately. Low oil pressure

off, have your vehicle repaired immediately. Charging system
The battery is not charging. Turn off all electrical items, but do not turn off  the vehicle to prevent further battery discharge. Have your vehicle repaired

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Monitors the tire pressure while you are driving. Available on U.S. models only.
If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes signiicantly 
low, the low tire pressure indicator comes on. Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire pressure and adjust the pressure to the specied level. The speciied tire pressure is on a label on the 
driver’s doorjamb.
TPMS Calibration
Any time you inate, change, or rotate one of more
of the tires, you need to recalibrate the system. Press and hold the TPMS button. The TPMS  indicator blinks, and calibration begins. The calibration process requires approximately 30  minutes of cumulative driving at speeds between 30–60 mph (48–97 km/h). The process inishes 
automatically.
Driving on an extremely underinlated tire can cause it to overheat. An overheated tire can fail. Always inate your tires to the specied pressure.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)—Required Federal Explanation
U.S. models only
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly  when cold and inlated to the inlation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire ination pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the  vehicle placard or tire inlation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire ination pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped  with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
signicantly under-inated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inlate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a signiicantly under-inlated tire causes the tire to overheat 
and can lead to tire failure. Under-ination also reduces fuel efciency
and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping
ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, 
and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even 
if under-ination has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator 
to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will ash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able  to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.

HANDLING THE UNEXPECTED
HANDLING THE UNEXPECTED
Replacing the Flat Tire
1. Remove the wheel nuts and at tire.
2. Mount the compact spare tire. Replace the
wheel nuts, and lightly tighten them.
3. Lower the vehicle and remove the jack. Tighten the wheel nuts in the order indicated in the image. Go around, tightening the nuts, two to
three times in this order. Do not overtighten the  wheel nuts. Models with wheel covers: Make sure the wire
support ring is hooked into the clips around the
edge of the wheel cover. Align the valve mark on the wheel cover to the tire valve on the wheel, then install the wheel
cover.
If you drive with the spare tire installed, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator*  appears. The indicator stays on until a regular tire is installed.
*if equippedWheel nuts
Storing the Flat Tire
1. Remove the center cap, if necessary.
2. Place the at tire face down in the spare tire well.
3. Remove the spacer cone from the wing bolt, lip 
it over, and insert it back on the bolt. Secure the lat tire with the wing bolt. Models with wheel covers: Make sure the wire
support ring is on the outer side of the tire valve as shown.
4. Securely store the wheel nut wrench, jack handle bar, and jack back in the tool  case. Store the case in the cargo area under the cargo oor lid.
Loose items can y around the interior in a crash and can seriously injure the occupants. Store the wheel, jack, and tools securely before driving.
