STARTING AND OPERATING
Shifting to NEUTRAL from any gear will maintain the
selected view (Zoom or Standard) as long as the vehicle
speed is below 8 mph (13 km/h).
If the vehicle is in PARK, Zoom View is available until the
gear selector is placed in DRIVE or REVERSE and speeds
are at or above 8 mph (13 km/h).
NOTE:
 If the vehicle is in DRIVE, NEUTRAL, or REVERSE, and
speed is greater than or equal to 8 mph (13 km/h),
Zoom View is unavailable and the icon will appear gray.
 While in Zoom View, the guidelines will not be visible.

REFUELING THE VEHICLE

There is no fuel filler cap. Two flapper doors inside the pipe
seal the system.
1.
Open the fuel filler door by pushing on the outer
edge of the fuel door.

2.
Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler pipe; the
nozzle opens and holds the flapper door while
refueling.
3.
Fill the vehicle with fuel, and when the fuel nozzle
"clicks" or shuts off, the fuel tank is full.
4.
Keep the nozzle in the filler for five seconds after
nozzle clicks to allow fuel to drain from the nozzle.
5.
Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel door.
WARNING!
 Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the
vehicle when the fuel door is open or the tank is
being filled.
 Never add fuel when the engine is running. This is in
violation of most state and federal fire regulations
and may cause the Malfunction Indicator Light to
turn on.
 A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a portable
container that is inside of a vehicle. You could be
burned. Always place fuel containers on the ground
while filling.

VEHICLE LOADING

C
ERTIFICATION
As required by National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration regulations, your vehicle has a certification
label affixed to the driver's side door or pillar.
This label contains the month and year of manufacture,
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), front and rear Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR), and Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN). A Month-Day-Hour (MDH) number is
included on this label and indicates the Month, Day and
Hour of manufacture. The bar code that appears on the
bottom of the label is your VIN.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
The GVWR is the total permissible weight of your vehicle
including driver, passengers, vehicle, options and cargo.
The label also specifies maximum capacities of front and
rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). Total load must be
limited so GVWR and front and rear GAWR are not
exceeded.
