Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)*†2 5
The TPMS indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure Light
and TPMS Malfunction Indicator A . The indicator is designed
to illuminate if it detects one or more tires is significantly underinflated,
the vehicle has a spare tire installed without TPMS or the outside
temperature becomes significantly lower .
The Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator B is displayed on the LCD
screen in the Instrument Cluster when the tire(s) is underinflated . Inflate
tire(s), using an accurate digital tire pressure gauge, to specifications to
turn off Low Tire Pressure Position Indicator B; see the front driver’s
door jamb for PSI specification .
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator
will blink for approximately one minute and then illuminate–see dealer
for service .

•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month . Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires” •For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle •In winter or cold weather, the TPMS light may illuminate if the tire pressure was adjusted to the recommended tire inflation pressure during warm weather
QUICK TIPS
REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of driver's door jamb, which is visible when the door is open
• Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s)
• Personal electronic devices (such as laptops, wireless chargers, remote start systems, etc .) can emit frequencies that may interfere with TPMS system, which may cause the Malfunction Warning Indicator (Check Engine Light) to illuminate

Instant Fuel Consumption Mode
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
There are several factors that contribute
to your vehicle’s fuel economy, including
maintenance of your vehicle, driving style,
environmental conditions, vehicle weight
and vehicle aerodynamics . Below are tips
on how to help improve fuel economy:
•Keep your vehicle in good condition
with regular maintenance
•Don’t let the engine idle longer than
necessary
•Drive at a moderate speed,
accelerating smoothly and at a
moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the
recommended pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying
unnecessary weight in your vehicle
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
For more information on Fuel Economy, you can snap the QR Code above to view a video or refer to the Owner's Manual.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)†9 / Forward Collision Warning (FCW)†9
The FCA is designed to help alert the driver and, under certain conditions if necessary, apply emergency braking when rapidly approaching a vehicle
that is slowing down, braking or stopped . Initially, the Forward Collision Warning (FCW ) will provide a warning when it detects a potential collision with a
vehicle in front and emits an audible warning and visual alert on the instrument cluster . Adjust the alert settings (Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings .
To turn the FCA /FCW off, go to User Settings again and turn off .
If the system detects that the collision risk increases, the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)
automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, helping to minimize the effects of a possible
collision . FCA can be turned ON in the User Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display .
The FCA /FCW will become active when the:
• Engine Start /Stop button is ON
• Vehicle is traveling faster than 5 mph
• Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
The Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)* / Forward Collision Warning (FCW)* are not substitutes for safe and proper driving. Always drive safely and use caution. FCA and FCW may not always alert the driver when the vehicle is approaching another vehicle.REMINDERS:
• The FCA will be activated by default when vehicle power is cycled on, even when previously set to off
• The FCW will not operate when the vehicle is traveling faster than approximately 50 mph
• If the FCA is operating and the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off, the FCA system is automatically turned off .
• When FCA system is off, the FCA warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster
