WARNING
Cancel FCA in the UserSettings on the LCD display,
before towing another vehicle.
While towing, the brake appli-
cation may adversely affect
your vehicle safety.
Exercise extreme caution to the vehicle in front, when it
has heavy loading extended
rearward, or when it has high-
er ground clearance.
Never try to test the operation of FCA. Doing so may cause
severe injury or death.
FCA is designed to detect and monitor the vehicle ahead or
detect a pedestrian in the
roadway through front view
camera recognition. It is not
designed to detect bicycles,
motorcycles, or smaller
wheeled objects such as lug-
gage bags, shopping carts, or
strollers.

WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using Cruise Control:
Always set the vehicle speed
under the speed limit in your
country. Keep Cruise Control
off when the function is not in
use, to avoid inadvertently
setting a speed. Check that
the Cruise ( CRUISE) indi-
cator is off.
Cruise Control does not sub- stitute for proper and safe
driving. It is the responsibility
of the driver to always drive
safely and should always be
aware of unexpected and sud-
den situations from occurring.
Always drive cautiously to prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. Pay attention to the road
conditions at all times.
Do not use Cruise Control when it may be unsafe to keep
the vehicle at a constant speed:
(Continued)
(Continued)- When driving in heavy traf-fic, or when traffic condi-
tions make it difficult to
drive at a constant speed
- When driving on rainy, icy, or snow-covered roads
- When driving on hilly or windy roads
- When driving in windy areas
- When driving with limited view (possibly due to bad
weather, such as fog, snow,
rain and sandstorm)
Do not use Cruise Control when towing a trailer.

Hazardous driving conditions
When hazardous driving conditions
are encountered such as water,
snow, ice, mud, sand, or similar haz-
ards, follow these suggestions:
Drive cautiously and allow extradistance for braking.
Avoid sudden braking or steering.
When braking with non-ABS brakes, pump the brake pedal with
a light up-and-down motion until
the vehicle is stopped. Do not pump the brake pedal on a
vehicle equipped with ABS.
If stalled in snow, mud, or sand,
use second gear. Accelerate slow-
ly to avoid spinning the drive
wheels.
Use sand, rock salt, tire chains, or other non-slip material under the
drive wheels to provide traction
when stalled in ice, snow, or mud.
Rocking the vehicle
If it is necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from snow, sand, or mud,
first turn the steering wheel right and
left to clear the area around your
front wheels. Then, shift back and
forth between 1st (First) and R
(Reverse) in vehicles equipped with
a Manual Transmission or R
(Reverse) and any forward gear in
vehicles equipped with an Intelligent
Variable Transmission. Do not race
the engine, and spin the wheels as
little as possible. If you are still stuck
after a few tries, have the vehicle
pulled out by a tow vehicle to avoid
engine overheating and possible
damage to the transmission.
The ESC system should be turned
OFF prior to rocking the vehicle.
SPECIAL DRIVING CONDITIONS
CAUTION- Vehicle
rocking
Prolonged rocking may causeengine overheating, transmis-sion damage or failure, and tiredamage.
WARNING- Downshifting
Do not downshift with an intelli-
gent variable transmission
while driving on slippery sur-
faces. The sudden change in
tire speed could cause the tires
to skid and result in an acci-
dent.

Carry emergency equipment
Depending on the severity of the
weather you should carry appropri-
ate emergency equipment. Some of
the items you may want to carry
include tire chains, tow straps or
chains, flashlight, emergency flares,
sand, a shovel, jumper cables, a win-
dow scraper, gloves, ground cloth,
coveralls, a blanket, etc.
TRAILER TOWING
We do not recommend using this
vehicle for trailer towing.

Seating capacity:
Total : 5 persons
(Front seat : 2 persons, Rear seat : 3 persons)
Seating capacity is the maximum
number of occupants, including a
driver, your vehicle may carry.
However, the seating capacity may
be reduced based upon the weight of
all of the occupants and the weight of
the cargo being carried or towed.
Do not overload the vehicle as there
is a limit to the total weight, or load
limit including occupants and cargo,
the vehicle can carry.
Towing capacity:
We do not recommend using this
vehicle for trailer towing.
Cargo capacity:
The cargo capacity of your vehicle
will increase or decrease depending
on the weight and the number of
occupants.
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit -
(1) Locate the statement "The com- bined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX
kg or XXX lbs.'' on your vehicle's
placard.
(2) Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that
will be riding in your vehicle.
(3) Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from
XXX kg or XXX lbs. (4) The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For exam-
ple, if the "XXX" amount equals
1400 lbs. and there will be five
150 lb passengers in your vehi-
cle, the amount of available cargo
and luggage load capacity is 650
lbs.
(1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.)
(5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being
loaded on the vehicle. That
weight may not safely exceed the
available cargo and luggage load
capacity calculated in Step 4.
(6) If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will
be transferred to your vehicle.
Consult this manual to determine
how this reduces the available
cargo and luggage load capacity
of your vehicle.
