Tire Inflator Kit

The tire inflator kit is located at the
back of the trunk on the driver's side.
It includes an air compressor, a tire
sealant canister, an accessory plug and
an air pressure gauge. Refer to the tire
inflator kit instructions for complete
operating information.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.

Towing and Dinghy Towing

Your vehicle was not designed to tow
a trailer.
It also was not designed to be towed
behind another vehicle with any of its
wheels on the ground; therefore, dinghy
towing also is not recommended.
See Section 4 of your Owner Manual.

Premium Unleaded Gasoline

Use premium unleaded gasoline with a
posted octane rating of 91 or higher for
best engine performance. You may also
use regular unleaded gasoline rated at
87 octane or higher, but your vehicle's
performance may be slightly reduced.
Unleaded gasoline with an octane rating
below 87 is not recommended.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.

Resetting the Oil Life System

(if equipped)
The Oil Life System calculates engine oil
life based on vehicle use and displays a
