ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) — IF EQUIPPED The ABS pr ovides incr eased vehicle stability and brake performance under most braking conditions. The system automatically “pumps” the brakes during severe braking conditions to prevent wheel lock-up. W ARNING! Pumping of the ABS will diminish their effective- ness and may lead to an accident. Pump[...]

The ABS telltale light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System. The light will come on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position and may stay on for as long as four seconds. If the ABS light remains on or comes on while driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is r equired. How[...]

• A slight drop or fall away of the brake pedal at the end of the stop. These are all normal characteristics of ABS. W ARNING!

W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle. Never overload them. TIRES — GENERAL INFORMA TION Tire Pressure Proper tir e inflation pressure is essential to the safe and satisfactory o[...]

2. Economy— Improper inflation pressur es can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tire tread. These abnormal wear patterns will r educe tr ead life resulting in a need for earlier tire replacement. Under-inflation also increases tire r olling resistance and results in higher fuel consump- tion. 3. Ride Comfort and V ehicle Stability?[...]

check tire pressure. Do not make a visual judgement when determining pr oper inflation. Radial tires may look properly inflated even when they are under-inflated. CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap (if equipped). This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which coul[...]

T ire Pressures for High Speed Operation The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or condi- tions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high speeds, maintaining correct tire inflation pressure is very important. Increased tire pressure and reduced vehicle loading may be requir ed for high[...]

Compact Spare Tire — If Equipped The compact spare is for temporary emer gency use with radial tires. It is engineered to be used on your style vehicle only .

T read Wear Indicators T read wear indicators are in the original equipment tires to help you in determining when your tires should be replaced. These indicators are molded into the bottom of the tread grooves. They will appear as bands when the tr ead depth becomes 1/16 in (2 mm). When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the tire shoul[...]

W ARNING! T ires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure. Y ou could lose control and have an accident resulting in serious injury or death. Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as little exposure to light as possible. Prote[...]

W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combinations of unapproved tires and wheels may change suspension dimensions and performance characteristics, result- ing in changes to steering, handling, and braking of your vehicle. This can cause unpredictable handling and stress to steering a[...]

Improper alignment will not cause vehicle vibration. V ibration may be a result of tire and wheel out-of- balance. Proper balancing will reduce vibration and avoid tire cupping and spotty wear .

TIRE ROT A TION RECOMMENDA TIONS T ires on the front and rear axles of vehicles operate at differ ent loads and perform differ ent steering, driving, and braking functions. For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates and tend to develop irregular wear pat- terns. These effects can be reduced by timely rotation of the tires. The benefits of rotati[...]

TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS) — IF EQUIPPED • The T ire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pressur e based on the vehicle recommended cold placard pressur e. • The tire pressur e will vary with temperature by about 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C). This means that when the outside temperature decreases[...]

If the ambient temperature is 68° F (20° C) and the measured tire pressur e is 28 psi (193 kPa), a temperature dr[...]

NOTE: • TPMS is not intended to replace normal tire care and maintenance, or to provide warning of a tire failure or condition. • TPMS should not be used as a tire pressur e gauge while adjusting your tire pressure. • Driving on a significantly under-inflated tir e causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also[...]

T ire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure W arnings The TPM Light will illuminate in the instrument cluster and a chime will sound when tire pressure is low in one or more of the four active r oad tires. Should this occur , you should stop as soon as possible, check the inflation pressur e of each tire on your vehicle, and inflate each tire to the veh[...]

2. If you install the compact spare tire in place of a road tire that has a pressur e below the low-pressure warning limit, upon the next ignition key cycle, a chime will sound and the TPM T elltale Light will turn ON due to the low tire. 3. After driving the vehicle for up to 10 minutes above 15 mph (25 km/h), the TPM T elltale Light will flash on[...]

TRAILER AND TONGUE WEIGHT Always load a trailer with 60% to 65% of the weight in the fr ont of the trailer . This places 10% to 15% of the Gross T railer W eight (GTW) on the tow hitch of your vehicle. Loads balanced over the wheels or heavier in the rear can cause the trailer to sway severely side to side which will cause loss of control of the ve[...]

Consider the following items when computing the weight on the rear axle of the vehicle: • The tongue weight of the trailer . • The weight of any other type of cargo or equipment put in or on your vehicle. • The weight of the driver and all passengers. NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle. [...]

W ARNING! • Improper towing can lead to an injury accident. • Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and will not shift during travel. When trailering cargo that is not fully secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that may be difficult for the driver to control. Y ou could lose control of your vehicle and have an accident. • Whe[...]
