On snowy roads, ice can form on the brakingsystem, making the brakes less effective.While driving in such conditions, pay closeattention to surrounding
vehicles and to the
condition of the road surface. From time totime, lightly depress the brake pedal andcheck how effective the brakes are.It is important to take
advantage of the engine
braking by downshifting while driving onsteep downhill roads in order to prevent thebrakes from overheating.

When parking on a hill, set the parking brake,and turn the front wheels toward the curb on adownhill, or away from
the curb on an uphill.
If necessary, apply chocks to the wheels.Be sure that the parki
ng brake is firmly set
when parked and that the selector lever is inthe “P” (PARK) position.
When parking on a hill, it is important to setthe parking brake befo
re moving the selector
lever to the “P” (PARK) position. This pre-vents loading the parking brake against thetransaxle. When this ha
ppens, it is difficult to
move the selector lever out of the “P”Never leave the engine running while youtake a short nap or rest. Also, never leave theengine running in a closed or poorly venti-lated place.Your front bumper can be damaged if youscrape it over curbs or parking stop blocks.Be careful when traveling up or down steepslopes where your bumper can scrape theroad.
Always carry the key and lock all doors andthe liftgate when leaving the vehicle unat-tended.Always try to park your vehicle in a well litarea.Move effort could be required to turn thesteering wheel.Refer to “Electric power steering system(EPS)” on page 5-99.

the trailer, if any, being towed. The tire andloading information placard located on thedriver’s door sill of your vehicle will showhow much weight it may properly carry.It is important to famil
iarize yourself with the
following terms before loading your vehicle:Vehicle maximum load on the tire: loadon an individual tire that is determined bydistributing to each axle its share of themaximum loaded vehicle weight anddividing by two.Vehicle normal load on the tire: load on anindividual tire that is determined by dis-tributing to each axle its share of the curbweight, accessory weight, and normaloccupant weight and dividing by two.Maximum loaded vehicle weight: the sumof -(a) Curb weight;(b) Accessory weight;(c) Vehicle capacity weight; and(d) Production options weight.
Curb weight: the weight of a motor vehi-cle with standard equipment including themaximum capacity of
fuel, oil, and cool-
ant.Accessory weight: the combined weight(in excess of those st
andard items which
may be replaced) of automatic transaxle,power steering, power brakes, power win-dows, power seats, radio, and heater, tothe extent that these items are available asfactory- installed equipment (whetherinstalled or not).Vehicle capacity weight: the rated cargoand luggage load plus 150 lbs (68 kg)*times the vehicle’s designated seatingcapacity.Production options weight: the combinedweight of those installed regular produc-tion options weighing over 5 lbs (2.3 kg)in excess of those standard items whichthey replace, not prev
iously considered in
curb weight or accessory weight, includ-ing heavy duty brakes,
ride levelers, roof
rack, heavy duty battery, and special trim.Normal occupant weight: 150 lbs (68 kg)*times the number of
specified occupants
(3 in the case of your vehicle)Occupant distribution:

tion within the passenger compartment (Inyour vehicle the distribution is 2 in front,1 in second row seat)

To determine the cargo load capacity for yourvehicle, subtract the
weight of all vehicle
occupants from the vehi
cle capacity weight.
For additional information, if needed, refer to“Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit”on page 6-8.DO NOT USE the Gross Vehicle Weight Rat-ing and Gross Axle Weight Rating numberslisted on the safety certification label locatedon the inside sill of the driver’s door as theguide for passengers and/or cargo weight.(Except for Vehicles for Mexico)

Cargo loads Cargo load precautions
WA R N I N GTo reduce the risk of serious injury ordeath, the combined weights of the driver,passengers and cargo and must neverexceed the vehicle capacity weight.Exceeding the vehicle capacity weight willadversely affect ve
hicle performance,
including handling and braking, and maycause an accident.Do not load cargo or luggage higher thanthe top of the seatback. Be sure that yourcargo or luggage cann
ot move when your
vehicle is in motion.Having either the re
ar view blocked, or
your cargo being thrown
inside the cabin
if you suddenly have to brake can cause aserious accident or
injury or death.
Put cargo or luggage in the cargo area ofyour vehicle. Try to spread the weightevenly.
Loading cargo on the roof
WA R N I N GWeight placed on the
roof of the vehicle
will raise the vehicle’and adversely affect
its handling charac-
teristics. As a result, driving errors oremergency maneuvers could lead to a lossof control and result in an accident. Driveslowly and avoid excessive maneuverssuch as sudden brak
ing or quick turning.
Make sure that the
weight of luggage and
the roof carrier do not exceed the maxi-mum roof load, 110 lb (50 kg). If the maxi-mum roof load is ex
ceeded, this could
cause damage to the ve
hicle or result in an
accident.The total weight of all occupants and lug-gage, including your r
oof load, must not
exceed the vehicle capacity weight. Formore information, refer to “Tire and load-ing information placard” on page 11-3Roof load is determined by adding theweight of the roof
carrier and the weight
of the luggage placed
on the roof carrier.
For additional information, refer to“Maximum roof load” on page 11-5.CAUTIONDo not load luggage directly onto the roof.Use a roof carrier that properly fits yourvehicle.For installation, refer to the instruction man-ual provided with the roof carrier.Place the luggage on the carrier so that itsweight is distri
buted evenly with the heaviest
items on the bottom. Do not load items thatare wider than the roof carrier.WA R N I N G

Towing a trailer will adversely affect yourvehicle’s handling, performance, braking,durability and driving economy (fuel con-sumption, etc.).If you do tow a trailer
with this vehicle, be
sure to use proper e
quipment and cautious
steering and braking for safe driving.
Before driving and after traveling a short dis-tance, always check the load to make sure itis securely fastened to the roof carrier.Stop the vehicle periodi
cally and check that
the load remains secure. If the load is notsecure, it could fall from the vehicle anddamage your vehicle,
another vehicle or cre-
ate a road hazard.NOTE
To prevent wind noise or reduction in gasmileage, remove the roof carrier when not inuse.Before using an automatic car wash, checkwith the attendant to determine if the roofcarrier should be removed.
