Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Your vehicle comes with a Tire Pressure

Fuel Type and Fuel Tank Capacity
Your Navigator's fuel tank capacity is
28 gallons (106L). Navigator L models have
a fuel tank capacity of 33.5 gallons (126.8L).
We recommend regular unleaded gasoline
with a pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87.
To provide improved performance, we
recommend premium fuel for severe duty
usage such as trailer towing. Do not use E85
(ethanol), diesel, fuel-methanol, leaded fuel
or any other fuel because it could damage or
impair the emission control system.
Location of Spare Tire and Tools
The temporary spare tire is under the vehicle,
just forward of the rear bumper. Use it only
for emergency use and replace it as soon as
possible. The jack and tools are under the
access panel in the floor compartment behind

power running boards* prior to jacking,
hoisting or towing your vehicle. Refer to your
Owner’s Manual for more information.
