ESSENTIAL
INFORMATION
FEATURES
FUEL TYPE AND TANK CAPACITY
Front Wheel Drive (FWD) vehicles have a fuel
tank capacity of 17.5 gallons (66.2L) while All
Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicles have a fuel tank
capacity of 16.5 gallons (62.4L). Your vehicle is
designed to use “Regular” unleaded gasoline
with an octane rating of 87. Do not use gasoline
labeled as “Regular” in high altitude areas that
are sold with octane ratings less than 87. Do
not use E85 fuels as your vehicle was not
designed to run on E85 fuels thatare blended
witha maximum of 85% ethanol.
TIRE PRESSURE Your vehicle’s tire
pressure specifications are found on the
vehicle’s Safety Compliance Certification Label
or Tire Label located on the driver’s door jamb.
Check your tires for proper air pressure monthly
and before long trips. Use a tire gauge to check
the tire inflation pressure, including the spare
tire. Check the tire pressure when tires are
cold, after the vehicle has been parked for at
least three hours or has been driven less than
three miles. (As you drive, the temperature in
the tire warms up, increasing the tire pressure.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has
been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire
pressure warning light when one or more of
your tires is significantly under-inflated.
Warning: Improperly inflated tires can affect
handling and can fail suddenly possibly
resulting in loss of vehicle control. R
efer to the
Tires, Wheels and Loading chapter in the
Owner’s Guide for further information.
FUSES
If the vehicle’s electrical components
are not operating, a fuse may have blown. The
fuse panel is located below the instrument
panel on the driver’s side; remove the cover to
view the fuses. Additional fuses are located in
the power distribution box in the engine
compartment. For more information regarding
changing fuses, refer to the Roadside
Emergencies chapter of your Owner’s Guide.
FUEL PUMP SHUT-OFF SWITCH
The fuel pump shut-off switch stops the electric
fuel pump from sending fuel to your engine
when your vehicle has sustained a substantial
jolt. The switch is located in the passenger’s
footwell, in the upper right corner. For more
information
, refer to the Roadside Emergencies
chapter of your Owner’s Guide.
LOCATION OF SPARE TIRE AND
TOOLS
If you get a flat tire while driving, do
not apply the brake heavily. Instead, gradually
decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel
firmly and slowly move to a safe place on the
side of the road. Your vehicle is equipped with
a temporary spare tire. The spare tire, jack and
tool bag are located under the carpeted floor
panel in the trunk. The temporary spare is
designed for emergency use only and should
be replaced as soon as possible. For complete
details on how to change your tire, refer to
the Roadside Emergencies chapter in your
Owner’s Guide.
