Fuel Economy
Several factors contribute to your vehicle's fuel economy, such as maintenance of your vehicle, driving style, environmental
conditions, vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics . Below are some tips on how to improve fuel economy:
•
Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular
maintenance
•
Don’t let the engine idle longer than necessary
•
Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly and
at a moderate rate
•
Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
†25
The indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure
Light and TPMS Malfunction Indicator .
The TPMS indicator is designed to illuminate
if it detects one or more tires is significantly
underinflated, the vehicle has a spare tire installed
without TPMS or the outside temperature becomes
significantly lower . The Low Tire Pressure Position
Indicator
A
is displayed on the LCD screen in the
Instrument Cluster when the tire(s) is underinflated .
•
Inflate tire(s) to specifications to turn off the Low Tire Pressure Light using an
accurate tire pressure gauge . See front driver’s door jamb for PSI specification
•
When there is a problem with the TPMS, the TPMS Malfunction Indicator will
blink for approximately one minute and then illuminate - See dealer for service
•
Even with TPMS, tire pressure
should be checked manually at
least once a month . Only adjust tire
pressure on “cold tires” that have
been sitting for approximately 20
minutes, and tires that are not hot
in temperature from direct sunlight
or heat .
•
For proper maintenance and
optimal fuel economy, maintain
recommended tire inflation
pressures and stay within the
load limits and weight distribution
recommended for your vehicle
•
In winter or cold weather, the
TPMS light may illuminate if the
tire pressure was adjusted to
the recommended tire inflation
pressure during warm weather

Consult your dealer for service if the Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s) .
•
Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of the driver's door jamb, visible
when the door is opened .
•
Personal electronic devices (such as laptops, wireless chargers, remote start systems, etc .) may
interfere with the TPMS system, which may cause the Malfunction Warning Indicator (Check Engine
