such as door/trunk ajar, see a more
accurate speed than your analog
speedometer while driving, see how many
kilometers/miles you can drive before
running out of fuel, and see how many
liters/gallons of fuel remain in the fuel tank.

Fuel Tank Capacity – Your vehicle’s fuel tank can accommodate 71.9L (19 gallons) of gasoline.
Your vehicle is designed to use "Regular" unleaded gasoline with pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87
for optimum performance. The use of gasoline with lower octane ratings may degrade performance.
Tire Pressure – Your tire pressure is properly set at the dealership according to the recommended
specifications found on the Certification Label located on the front door latch pillar on the driver’s
side. Please check your tire pressure during routine maintenance and seasonal changes.
Warning: Improperly inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and can fail suddenly, possibly
resulting in loss of vehicle control.
Fuses – If electrical components in the vehicle are not working, a fuse may have blown. For more
information about changing the fuse, please consult your Owner’s Guide.
Changing the Tires – 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 temporary spare is
smaller than a regular tire and is designed for emergency use only. Replace this tire with a full-size
tire as soon as possible. Also, be sure to turn OFF the air suspension switch (if equipped) prior to
jacking, hoisting, or towing your vehicle.
