3. When the designated pressure is reached,

the horn beeps once and the hazard indica-
tors stop flashing.

4. Perform the above steps for each tire.

● If the tire is over-inflated more than ap-

proximately 4 psi (30 kPa), the horn
beeps and the hazard indicators flash 3
times. To correct the pressure, push the
core of the valve stem on the tire briefly to
release pressure. When the pressure
reaches the designated pressure, the
horn beeps once.

● If the hazard indicator does not flash

within approximately 15 seconds after
starting to inflate the tire, it indicates that
the Easy Fill Tire Alert is not operating.

● The TPMS will not activate the Easy Fill

Tire Alert under the following conditions:

– If there is interference from an external

device or transmitter.

– The air pressure from the inflation device

is not sufficient to inflate the tire.

– There is a malfunction in the TPMS sys-

tem.

– There is a malfunction in the horn or haz-

ard indicators.

– The identification code of the tires pres-

sure sensor is not registered to the sys-
tem.

– The battery of the tire pressure sensor is

low.

● If the Easy Fill Tire Alert does not operate

due to TPMS interference, move the ve-
hicle about 3 ft (1 m) backward or forward
and try again.

If the Easy Fill Tire Alert is not working, use a tire
pressure gauge.

AVOIDING COLLISION AND
ROLLOVER

WARNING

Failure to operate this vehicle in a safe
and prudent manner may result in loss of
control or an accident.

Be alert and drive defensively at all times. Obey
all traffic regulations. Avoid excessive speed,
high speed cornering, or sudden steering ma-
neuvers, because these driving practices could
cause you to lose control of your vehicle. As with
any vehicle, loss of control could result in a
collision with other vehicles or objects or
cause the vehicle to roll over, particularly if
the loss of control causes the vehicle to

slide sideways. Be attentive at all times, and
avoid driving when tired. Never drive when under
the influence of alcohol or drugs (including pre-
scription or over-the-counter drugs which may
cause drowsiness). Always wear your seat belt
as outlined in the “Safety – Seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system” section of this
manual, and also instruct your passengers to do
so.

Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in colli-
sions and rollovers. In a rollover crash, an
unbelted or improperly belted person is
significantly more likely to be injured or
killed than a person properly wearing a
seat belt.

OFF-ROAD RECOVERY

If the right side or left side wheels unintentionally
leave the road surface, maintain control of the
vehicle by following the procedure below. Please
note that this procedure is only a general guide.
The vehicle must be driven as appropriate based
on the conditions of the vehicle, road and traffic.

1. Remain calm and do not overreact.

2. Do not apply the brakes.

3. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel

with both hands and try to hold a straight
course.
