Maintenance
The maintenance menu allows the user to set
reminders for various vehicle maintenance items.
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. For additional
information, refer to “Changing wheels
and tires” in the “Maintenance and do-it-
yourself” section of this manual. Many fac-
tors including tire inflation, alignment,
driving habits and road conditions affect
tire wear and when tires should be re-
placed. Setting the tire replacement indi-
cator for a certain driving distance does
not mean your tires will last that long. Use
the tire replacement indicator as a guideonly and always perform regular tire
checks. Failure to perform regular tire
checks, including tire pressure checks
could result in tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to a
collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.

NOTE:
If the surface temperature of the steering
wheel is above 68°F (20°C) when the switch
is turned on, the system will not heat the
steering wheel. This is not a malfunction.The vehicle should be driven with the VDC sys-
tem on for most driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
system reduces the engine output to reduce
wheel spin. The engine speed will be reduced
even if the accelerator is depressed to the floor. If
maximum engine power is needed to free a stuck
vehicle, turn the VDC system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC OFF
switch. The
indicator will come on.Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the
engine to turn on the system. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
system” in the “Starting and driving” section of
this manual.
