Automatic-Dimming Night Vision Safety™  (NVS®
) Mirror (if equipped)
The NVS® Mirror automatically reduces  
glare by monitoring light levels in the 
front and the rear of the vehicle. Any 
object that obstructs either light sensor 
will degrade the automatic dimming 
control feature. 
For more information regarding NVS®  
mirrors and other applications, please 
refer to the Gentex website: 
www.gentex.com 
Your mirror will automatically dim  
upon detecting glare from the vehicles 
traveling behind you.  
The mirror defaults to the ON position  
each time the vehicle is started.
Integrated HomeLink ®
 Wireless Control 
System
The HomeLink® Wireless Control System  
provides a convenient way to replace 
up to three hand held radio-frequency 
transmitters used to activate compatible 
devices such as gate operators, garage 
door openers, entry door locks, security 
systems, and home lighting.
NOTICE
HomeLink® operates while the ignition  
switch is in the ACC or ON position 
for safety reasons. It is to prevent 
unintentional security problems from 
happening when the vehicle is parked 
outside the garage.
 WARNING
Before programming HomeLink® to a  
garage door opener or gate operator, 
make sure people and objects are out 
of the way of the device to prevent 
potential harm or damage. Do not 
use the HomeLink® with any garage 
door opener that lacks the safety 
stop and reverse features required 
by U.S. federal safety standards (this 
includes any garage door opener model 
manufactured before April 1, 1982). 
A garage door that cannot detect an 
object - signaling the door to stop and 
reverse - does not meet current U.S. 
federal safety standards. Using a garage 
door opener without these features 
increases the risk of serious injury or 
death. 
For more information, contact  
HomeLink®  at www.homelink.com, or 
call Home-Link customer support at 
1-800-355-3515. 
It is also recommended that a new  
battery be replaced in the handheld 
transmitter of the device being trained 
to HomeLink® for quicker training and 
accurate transmission of the radio 
frequency.

•	
Check that all smart keys are  
outside the vehicle when using 
Remote Operation function.
•	 Remote Operation function will 
operate only when the smart key is 
within 13 ft. (4 m) from the vehicle. If 
there is no vehicle movement even 
when the Forward (
) or Backward 
() button is pressed on the smart 
key, check the distance to the  
vehicle and press the button again.
•	 The detecting range of the smart 
key may vary depending on the 
surroundings that are affected by 
radio waves such as transmission 
tower, broadcast station, etc.
•	 When remotely moving forward 
using method (1), it is recognized 
as an exit situation, and the 
vehicle moves 13 ft. (4 m) to 
check for pedestrians, animals or 
objects around the vehicle. After 
confirmation, the steering wheel 
is controlled according to the condition ahead. 
•	 When remotely moving forward 
using method (2), it is recognized 
as a parking situation, and will 
immediately control the steering 
wheel according to the condition 
ahead to assist with entering the parking space and aligning the 
vehicle. However, performance 
may reduce depending on the 
pedestrians, animals, shape of 
objects, location, etc., around the 
vehicle.
•	 For moving remotely backward, 
both method (1) and (2) aligns the 
steering wheel first, and then will 
only move the vehicle straight. 
•	 When remotely moving forward or 
backward is completed, the vehicle 
will automatically shift to P (Park) 
and engage EPB (Electronic Parking 
Brake).
 CAUTION
•	 When using Remote Operation  
function, make sure that all 
passengers have gotten out of the 
vehicle.
•	 If the vehicle’s battery is discharged 
or Remote Smart Parking Assist 
malfunctions when parked in a 
narrow parking space, Remote 
Operation function will not operate. 
Always park your vehicle in a space 
wide enough for you to get in or out 
of your vehicle.
•	 Please note that depending on the 
parking space, you may not be able 
to exit from the space you have 
entered by using Remote Operation function.
•	 After parking, the surrounding may 
change due to the movement of 
surrounding vehicles. If this occurs, 
Remote Operation function may not 
operate. 
•	 Before leaving the vehicle, close 
windows and sunroofs, and make 
sure the vehicle is off before locking 
the doors.

Temperature - A, B & C
The temperature grades are A (the  
highest), B and C representing the tire’s 
resistance to the generation of heat 
and its ability to dissipate heat when 
tested under 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 lead to sudden tire 
failure. Grades B and A represent higher 
levels of performance on the laboratory 
test wheel than the minimum required 
by law.
 WARNING
The temperature grade for this tire is  
established for a tire that is properly 
inflated and not overloaded. Excessive 
speed, under-inflation, over-inflation, 
or excessive loading, either separately 
or in combination, can cause heat build-
up and possible sudden tire failure. 
This may cause loss of vehicle control 
resulting in an accident.
Tire Terminology and Definitions
Air pressure 
The amount of air inside the tire  
pressing outward on the tire. Air 
pressure is expressed in pounds per 
square inch (psi) or kilopascal (kPa). 
Accessory weight 
This means the combined weight  
of optional accessories. Some 
examples of optional accessories 
are automatic transmission, power 
seats, and air conditioning. 
Aspect ratio 
The relationship of a tire’s height to  its width. Belt 
A rubber coated layer of cords that  
is located between the plies and the 
tread. Cords may be made from steel 
or other reinforcing materials. Bead 
The tire bead contains steel wires  
wrapped by steel cords that hold the 
tire onto the rim.
