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,
which is smaller than a regular tire and is designed for emergency use only.
Brake Dust – For more information about brake dust, see the brake section of the
Owner's Manual.
