When driving on a road covered withsnow or ice, use s
now tires. Tire chains
cannot be used on your vehicle. Theremay be state or local regulations aboutusing snow tires. Al
ways check the regu-
lations in your local area before usingthem. Refer to “Snow tires” on page 9-21and “Tire chains” on page 9-22.Drive slowly. Do not make sudden startsor stops, sharp turns, or slam on thebrakes.Allow extra distance
between your vehi-
cle and the vehicle in front of you, andavoid sudden braking.If a skid occurs when the acceleratorpedal is depressed, take your foot off thepedal. Steer gently in the direction of theskid.Your vehicle is equipped with an anti-lockbraking system (ABS). Hold the brakepedal down firmly and keep it depressed.Do not pump the brake pedal which willresult in reduced braking performance.After parking on snowy or icy roads, itmay be difficult to move your vehicle dueto the brake being frozen. Depress theaccelerator pedal little by little to movethe vehicle when safe to do so.
Drive as slow as pos
sible when driving on
bumpy, rutted roads or over potholes.
N00860600031
In the event of a collision causing frontal air-bag deployment, the fuel pump shut-off sys-tem will activate to st
op fuel supply to the
engine.
On snowy or icy roads
CAUTIONDo not depress the acce
lerator pedal rapidly.
The vehicle could start moving when itbreaks free from the
ice, possibly resulting in
an accident.
On a bumpy or rutted road
CAUTIONDriving on bumpy, rutted roads or over pot-holes can damage th
e tires and wheels.
Wheels with low-profiles tires or under-inflated tires are especially at risk for dam-age.

It is important to familiarize yourself with thefollowing terms:Cold tire pressure:• The measured pressure after the vehiclehas been parked for
at least three hours,
or• The measured pressure when the vehicleis driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) afterhaving been parked for three hours.
Maximum pressure: the maximum per-missible cold tire inflation pressure forthis tire.Recommended inflation pressure: theinflation pressure for optimum tire perfor-mance.Intended outboard sidewall:• The sidewall that
contains a whitewall,
bears white lettering or bears manufac-turer, brand, and/or model name moldingthat is higher or deeper than the samemolding on the other sidewall of the tire,or
• The outward facing si
dewall of an asym-
metrical tire that has a particular sidethat must always face outward whenmounted on a vehicle.
Passenger car tire: a
tire intended for use
on passenger cars, multipurpose passen-ger vehicles, and trucks
that have a gross
vehicle weight rati
ng (GVWR) of 10,000
pounds or less.Light truck (LT) tire: a tire designated byits manufacturer as primarily intended foruse on lightweight truc
ks or multipurpose
passenger vehicles.Tread: portion of a ti
re that comes into
contact with the road.Tread rib: a tread se
ction running circum-
ferentially around a tire.Tread separation: pulling away of thetread from the tire carcass.Carcass: the tire structure, except treadand sidewall rubber wh
ich, when inflated,
bears the load.Sidewall: portion of
a tire between the
tread and bead.Section width: the lin
ear distance between
the exteriors of th
e sidewalls of an
inflated tire, excluding elevations due tolabeling, decoration,
or protective bands.
Bead: the part of the tire that is made ofsteel wires, wrapped or reinforced by plycords and that is shaped to fit the rim.
NOTE
Check each battery terminal for corrosion.You can prevent further corrosion by wash-ing with a solution of
baking soda and water.
Grease the posts and cl
amps after cleaning or
tightening them.Ensure the battery is securely installed andcannot be moved. Also
check each terminal
for tightness.If you will not be driv
ing your vehicle for a
long period of time, re
move the battery and
store it in a place where the battery fluid willnot freeze. The batter
y only should be stored
with a full charge.Before cleaning the battery, tighten all thefiller port caps to keep
dirt and moisture out.
Tires
WA R N I N GDriving with tires that are worn, damagedor improperly infl
ated is dangerous.
These type tire conditions will adverselyaffect vehicle performance.These type tire conditions can also cause atread separation or blowout which mayresult in an accident causing seriousinjury or death.
Tires, including spar
e tire, degrade over
time with age even when they are notbeing used.It is recommended that tires over 6 yearsgenerally be replaced
even if damage is
not obvious.WA R N I N G

Proper tire inflation pre
ssure is essential for
the safe and satisfac
tory operation of your
vehicle. The wrong tire pressure will causeproblems in three major areas:SafetyToo little pressure increases flexing in thetire and can cause tire failure. Too muchpressure can cause a tire to lose its abilityto cushion shock. Objects on the road andpotholes could then ca
use tire damage that
may result in tire failure.EconomyThe wrong tire pressu
re can cause uneven
wear patterns in the tire tread. Theseabnormal wear patter
ns will reduce the
tread life, and the tire will have to bereplaced sooner.Too little pressure also makes it harder forthe tire to roll, and this uses up more fuel.Ride comfort and vehicle stabilityThe superior riding e
xperience built into
your vehicle partly de
pends on the correct
tire pressure. Too much pressure gives anuncomfortable and jarring ride. Too littlepressure feels as if
your vehicle is slow to
respond.Unequal tire pressure
s can make steering
your vehicle uneven
and unpredictable.
The tire pressure for your vehicle under nor-mal driving conditions is listed on the placardattached to the driver’s door sill.(Refer to “Tire and loading information plac-ard” on page 11-3.)The recommended inflation pressures undernormal driving conditions should be used forthe tires listed below.Tire pressures should be checked, andadjusted if necessary, at least once a month.Pressures should be checked more oftenwhenever weather temperatures changeseverely, becaus
e tire pressures change with
outdoor temperatures. The pressures listedare always “cold in
flation pressure”.
Cold inflation pressure is measured after thevehicle has been parked for at least threehours or is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km)after having been parked for three hours.Cold inflation pressure must not go above themaximum values molded into the tire side-wall. After driving several miles, your tireinflation pressure may increase 2 to 6 psi (14
to 41 kPa) from the cold inflation pressure.Do not let air out of the tires to get back to thespecified cold pressure, or your tires will betoo low.Check your tires each t
ime you refuel. If one
tire looks lower than the others, check thepressure for all of them.You should also take the following safety pre-cautions:Keep your tires inflated to the recom-mended pressures. (See the tire and load-ing information placard attached to thedriver’s door sill.)Stay within the recommended load limits.Make sure that the weight of any load inyour vehicle is evenly distributed.Drive at safe speeds.After filling your tires to the correct pres-sure, check them for damage and airleaks. Be sure to reinstall the caps on thevalve stems.

This information is provided in compliancewith the requirements of the National High-way Traffic Safety Ad
ministration, Depart-
ment of Transportation. It provides thepurchasers and/or prospective purchaserswith information on repor
ting safety defects.
DOT quality grades - Al
l passenger vehicle
tires must conform to
Federal Safety Require-
ments in addition to these grades. The spe-cific grade rating in each grade category isshown on the side wall of the tires on yourvehicle. The treadwear grade is a comparative ratingbased on the wear rate of
the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specifiedgovernment test course
. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half(11/2) times as well on the government course
as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance
of tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart signifi-cantly from the norm due to variations indriving habits, service practices and differ-ences in road characteristics and climate. The traction grades, from highest to lowest,are AA, A, B and C. Those grades representthe tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled conditions onspecified government te
st surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may have poortraction performance. The temperature grades are A (the highest), Band C, representing the ti
re’s resistance to the
generation of heat and it
s ability to dissipate
heat when tested un
der controlled conditions
on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature can leadto sudden tire failure. The grade C corre-sponds to a level of performance which allpassenger car tires must meet under the Fed-eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109.Grades B and A represent higher levels ofperformance on the labora
tory test wheel than
the minimum required by law.
