If your vehicle is equipped with tow hooks,
there will be one in the rear and two mounted
on the front of the vehicle. The rear hook will
be located on the driver's side of the vehicle.
NOTE:

then the OFF/LOCK position, without
removing it. By extracting the key this will
automatically engage the steering wheel
lock. Place the transmission into NEUTRAL.
Vehicles With Keyless Enter-N-Go
Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position,
and subsequently in OFF/LOCK, without
opening the door. During towing, remember
that not having the aid of the power brakes
and the electromechanical power steering
will require greater force when applying the
brakes and steering of the vehicle.
Tow Eye Usage — If Equipped
Your vehicle is equipped with a tow eye that
can be used to move a disabled vehicle.
When using a tow eye be sure to follow the
“Tow Eye Usage Precautions” and the
“Towing A Disabled Vehicle” instructions in
this section.

Tow Eye Installation
Front Tow Eye
The front tow eye receptacle is located
behind a door on the front bumper fascia.
To install the tow eye, open the door using
the vehicle key or a small screwdriver, and
thread the tow eye into the receptacle.
CAUTION!
The tow eye must only be used for road-
side emergencies. Use with an appro-
priate device in accordance with highway
code (a rigid bar) to maneuver the
vehicle in preparation for transport via a
tow truck.
The tow eye must not be used to move
the vehicle off the road or where there
are obstacles.
Do not use the tow eyes for tow truck
hookup or highway towing.
Do not use the tow eye to free a stuck
vehicle. Refer to the “Freeing A Stuck
Vehicle” section for further information.
Please refer to the “Towing A Disabled
Vehicle” section for detailed
instructions. Damage to your vehicle
may occur if these guidelines are not
followed.
WARNING!
Stand clear of vehicles when pulling with
tow eyes.
Do not use a chain with a tow eye. Chains
may break, causing serious injury or
death.
Do not use a tow strap with a tow eye.
Tow straps may break or become disen -
gaged, causing serious injury or death.
Failure to follow proper tow eye usage
may cause components to break
resulting in serious injury or death.
The brake and steering power assist
systems will not function while the
vehicle is being towed. You will, there-
fore, need to apply more force on the
brake pedal and steering wheel. Do not
use flexible ropes when towing, and
avoid jerky movements. Do not start the
engine while towing the car. Before
tightening the ring, clean the threaded
housing thoroughly. Make sure that the
ring is fully screwed into the housing
before towing the car.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
236
(Continued)
NOTE:
Wheel Valve Stem must be replaced as well
when installing new tires due to wear and
tear in existing tires.
Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place
with as little exposure to light as possible.
Protect tires from contact with oil, grease,
and gasoline.
Replacement Tires
The tires on your new vehicle provide a
balance of many characteristics. They should
be inspected regularly for wear and correct
cold tire inflation pressures. The manufac-
turer strongly recommends that you use tires
equivalent to the originals in size, quality
and performance when replacement is
needed. Refer to the paragraph on “Tread
Wear Indicators” in this section. Refer to the
Tire and Loading Information placard or the
Vehicle Certification Label for the size desig -
nation of your tire. The Load Index and
Speed Symbol for your tire will be found on
the original equipment tire sidewall.
It is recommended to replace the two front
tires or two rear tires as a pair. Replacing just
one tire can seriously affect your vehicle’s
handling. If you ever replace a wheel, make
sure that the wheel’s specifications match
those of the original wheels. It is recommended you contact an authorized
tire dealer or original equipment dealer with
any questions you may have on tire specifica
-
tions or capability. Failure to use equivalent
replacement tires may adversely affect the
safety, handling, and ride of your vehicle.
Tire Types
All Season Tires — If Equipped
All Season tires provide traction for all
seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter).
Traction levels may vary between different all
season tires. All season tires can be identi -
fied by the M+S, M&S, M/S or MS designa -
tion on the tire sidewall. Use all season tires
only in sets of four; failure to do so may
adversely affect the safety and handling of
your vehicle.
WARNING!
Do not use a tire, wheel size, load rating,
or speed rating other than that specified
for your vehicle. Some combinations of
unapproved tires and wheels may change
suspension dimensions and performance
characteristics, resulting in changes to
steering, handling, and braking of your
vehicle. This can cause unpredictable
handling and stress to steering and
suspension components. You could lose
control and have a collision resulting in
serious injury or death. Use only the tire
and wheel sizes with load ratings
approved for your vehicle.
Never use a tire with a smaller load index
or capacity, other than what was origi -
nally equipped on your vehicle. Using a
tire with a smaller load index could result
in tire overloading and failure. You could
lose control and have a collision.
Failure to equip your vehicle with tires
having adequate speed capability can
result in sudden tire failure and loss of
vehicle control.
CAUTION!
Replacing original tires with tires of a
different size may result in false
speedometer and odometer readings.

list of prompts by pushing the Uconnect
phone button and saying the phrase.
Uconnect will confirm the message by
reading it back to you. 4. Push the Phone button and say “Send.”
*Use only the numbering listed or the system

-
phones do not currently support Bluetooth®
MAP. Visit driveuconnect.eu or an authorized
dealer for device compatibility.
Siri® Eyes Free — If Equipped
Siri lets you use your voice to send text
messages, select media, place phone calls
