If the brake fluid level is at or below the MIN mark, have a dealer inspect the
vehicle for leaks or worn brake pads as soon as possible.

To safely operate your vehicle, your tires must be of the proper type and size, in
good condition with adequate tread, and properly inflated.

Inflation Guidelines
• Properly inflated tires provide the best combination of handling, tread life,
and comfort. Refer to the driver’s doorjamb label or see SPECIFICATIONS
for the specified pressure.
• Underinflated tires wear unevenly, adversely affect handling and fuel
economy, and are more likely to fail from overheating.
• Overinflated tires make your vehicle ride harshly, are more prone to road
hazards, and wear unevenly.
