accelerator pedal, apply the brakes
gradually with light force, and slow-
ly move to a safe position off the
road.

Significantly low tire pressure makes the vehicle unstable
and can contribute to loss of
vehicle control and increased
braking distances.
Continued driving or low pres- sure tires will cause the tires to
overheat and fail.

WARNING - Backing Up &
Using Camera
Never rely solely on the rear
view camera display when
backing up. Prior to entering
your vehicle always do a visual
check of the area behind your
vehicle, and before backing up
be aware of your surroundings
and supplement the rear view
camera by looking over your
shoulders and checking your
rear view mirrors. Due to the dif-
ficulty of ensuring that the area
behind you remains clear,
always back up slowly and stop
immediately if you even suspect
that a person, and especially a
child, might be behind you.
