FUEL CAP:

LOOSE GAS CAP MESSAGE

• If the “gASCAP” message appears in the odometer display, tighten the
gas cap until a “clicking” sound is heard.

• If the message continues to appear for more than three days after

tightening the gas cap, see your dealer.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS):

• A Tire Pressure Monitoring Light and a “low tire” message will display

in your instrument cluster along with an audible chime if one or more of
your vehicle’s four road tires are signicantly under-inated.

• Check the ination pressure of each tire and inate to the recommended

pressure for your vehicle. The tire pressures recommended for your

vehicle are found on the “Tire and Loading Information” label located on

the driver’s side door opening. The TPMS light should not be used as a
tire pressure gauge when adjusting your tire pressure.

• It is recommended that you check the tire pressure in the morning

when tires are cool; inate each tire to the recommended pressure for
your vehicle. The light will turn off after your vehicle’s tire pressures are
properly inated and the pressure has been recognized. The vehicle may
need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (25 km/h) before the
light will turn off.

•

Temperature changes can affect tire pressure, causing the TPMS light
to turn on. Tire pressures will also increase as the vehicle is driven - this
is normal and you should not adjust for this increased pressure.

• Driving on under-inated tires reduces your vehicle’s fuel efciency and
tire tread life. If a spare tire is in use on the vehicle, the TPMS light may

turn on. Refer to your Owner’s Manual.

OIL CHANGE INDICATOR:

• A “CHAngE OIL” message will display and a single chime will sound when
