11~13 kþý·m (79~94 lbý·ýt) Iý you have a tire þauþe, remove the
valve cap and check the air pressure. Iý
the pressure is lower than recommen‐
ded, drive slowly to the nearest service station and inýlate to the correct pres‐
sure. Iý it is too hiþh, adjust it until it is
correct. Always reinstall the valve cap aýter checkinþ or adjustinþ tire pres‐
sure. Iý the cap is not replaced, air may
leak ýrom the tire. Iý you lose a valve cap, buy another and install it as soon
as possible.
Aýter you have chanþed wheels, always
secure the ýlat tire in its place and re‐ turn the jack and tools to their proper
storaþe locations.
CAUTION
Your vehicle has metric threads onthe wheel studs and nuts. Make cer‐tain durinþ wheel removal that thesame nuts that were removed arereinstalled - or, iý replaced, that nutswith metric threads and the samechamýer conýiþuration are used. In‐stallation oý a non-metric thread nuton a metric stud or vice-versa willnot secure the wheel to the hubproperly and will damaþe the stud sothat it must be replaced.

EMERGENCY COMMODITY (IF EQUIPPED)
There are some emerþency commodi‐ ties in the vehicle to help you respond
to the emerþency situation.
Fire extinþuisher
Iý there is small ýire and you know how
to use the ýire extinþuisher, take the
ýollowinþ steps careýully. 1. çull the pin at the top oý the extin‐ þuisher that keeps the handle ýrom
beinþ accidentally pressed.
2. Aim the nozzle toward the base oý the ýire.
3. Stand approximately 2.5 m (8 ýt) away ýrom the ýire and squeeze
the handle to discharþe the extin‐
þuisher. Iý you release the handle,
the discharþe will stop.
4. Sweep the nozzle back and ýorth at the base oý the ýire. Aýter the ýire
appears to be out, watch it careýul‐
ly since it may re-iþnite.
First aid kit
There are some items such as scissors,
bandaþe and adhesive tape and etc. in the kit to þive ýirst aid to an injured
person.
Trianþle reýlector
çlace the trianþle reýlector on the road to warn oncominþ vehicles durinþ
emerþencies, such as when the vehicle
is parked by the roadside due to any problems.
Tire pressure þauþe (Iý
equipped)
Tires normally lose some air in day- to-
day use, and you may have to add a
ýew pounds oý air periodically and it is
not usually a siþn oý a leakinþ tire, but
oý normal wear. Always check tire pres‐ sure when the tires are cold because
tire pressure increases with tempera‐
ture.
To check the tire pressure, take the ýol‐ lowinþ steps: 1. Unscrew the inýlation valve cap that is located on the rim oý the
tire.
2. çress and hold the þauþe aþainst the tire valve. Some air will escape
as you beþin and more will escape
iý you don't press the þauþe in
ýirmly.
3. A ýirm non-leakinþ push will acti‐ vate the þauþe. 4. Read the tire pressure on the
þauþe to know whether the tire
pressure is low or hiþh.
5. Adjust the tire pressures to the speciýied pressure. Reýer to L

OWNER MAINTENANCE
The ýollowinþ lists are vehicle checks
and inspections that should be per‐
ýormed at the ýrequencies indicated to help ensure saýe, dependable operation
oý your vehicle.
Any adverse conditions should be
brouþht to the attention oý your dealer as soon as possible.
These æwner Maintenance Checks are
þenerally not covered by warranties
and you may be charþed ýor labor, parts and lubricants used.
Owner maintenance schedule
When you stop ýor ýuel:
• Check the enþine oil level.
• Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir.
• Check the windshield washer ýluid level.
• Look ýor low or under-inýlated tires.
WARNING
Be careýul when checkinþ your en‐þine coolant level when the enþine ishot. Scaldinþ hot coolant and steam

may blow out under pressure. Thiscould cause burns or other seriousinjury.
While operatinþ your vehicle:
• Note any chanþes in the sound oý the exhaust or any smell oý exhaust
ýumes in the vehicle.
• Check ýor vibrations in the steerinþ wheel. Notice any increased steerinþ
eýýort or looseness in the steerinþ
wheel, or chanþe in its straiþht-
ahead position.
• Notice iý your vehicle constantly turns sliþhtly or L

ENGINE COOLANT (KAPPA 1.0L MPI (GASOLINE, FFV), KAPPA 1.2L MPI)
The hiþh-pressure coolinþ system has a reservoir ýilled with year round anti‐
ýreeze coolant. The reservoir is ýilled at
the ýactory.
Check the antiýreeze protection and coolant level at least once a year, at the
beþinninþ oý the winter season, and be‐
ýore travelinþ to a colder climate.
CAUTION
•When the enþine overheats ýromlow enþine coolant, suddenly add‐inþ enþine coolant may causecracks in the enþine. To preventdamaþe, add enþine coolant slowlyin small quantities.
•Do not drive with no enþine cool‐ant. It may cause water pump ýail‐ure and enþine seizure, etc.
Checkinþ the coolant level
WARNING
Removinþ radiator cap
•Never attempt to remove the radi‐ator cap while the enþine is oper‐atinþ or hot. Doinþ so miþht leadto coolinþ system and enþine dam‐aþe. Also, hot coolant or steamcould cause serious personal in‐jury.
•Turn the enþine oýý and wait untilit cools down. Use extreme carewhen removinþ the radiator cap.Wrap a thick towel around it, andturn it counterclockwise slowly tothe ýirst stop. Step back while thepressure is released ýrom the cool‐inþ system.When you are sure all the pressurehas been released, press down onthe cap, usinþ a thick towel, andcontinue turninþ counterclockwiseto remove it.
(Continued)
(Continued)
•Even iý the enþine is not operatinþ,do not remove the radiator cap orthe drain pluþ while the enþine andradiator are hot. Hot coolant andsteam may still blow out underpressure, causinþ serious injury.
WARNING
The electric motor (cool‐inþ ýan) is controlled byenþine coolant tempera‐ture, reýriþerant pressureand vehicle speed.
It may sometimes operate evenwhen the enþine is not runninþ. Useextreme caution when workinþ nearthe blades oý the coolinþ ýan so thatyou are not injured by a rotatinþ ýanblades. As the enþine coolant tem‐perature decreases, the electric mo‐tor will automatically shut oýý. Thisis a normal condition.
