The compact spare tire and tools are
located under the cargo load floor.
For access, slide the levers on the load
floor to unlock the floor cover. Lift the
floor cover, unsnap the hook under the
floor cover handle, and hang the hook
(A) to the liftgate opening.
The compact spare tire is made to per-
form well at speeds up to 50 mph. It’s
best to replace the compact spare tire
with a full-size tire as soon as possible.

Tire Pressure Monitor
The Tire Pressure Monitor alerts you
when a significant reduction in pressure
occurs in one or more of your vehicle’s
tires by illuminating the
(Low Tire
Pressure) warning light on the instru-
ment panel. The low tire pressure
warning light will remain on until you
correct the tire pressure.
Correcting the Tire Pressure
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you must inflate the tire to
the proper tire pressure.The Tire and
Loading Information label, located on
the center pillar below the driver’s door
latch, shows the correct tire pressure for
the tires when they’re cold. “Cold”
means your vehicle has been sitting for
at least three hours or driven no more
than one mile.
During cooler conditions, the low tire
pressure warning light may appear when
the vehicle is first started and then turn
off as you drive. This may be an early
indicator that your tire pressures are get-
ting low and the tires need to be inflated
to the proper pressure.
See Section 5 of your Owner Manual.
Note:
The Tire Pressure Monitor can
alert you about low tire pressure, but it
doesn’t replace normal monthly tire
maintenance.
Resetting the Oil Life System
The Oil Life System calculates engine oil
life based on vehicle use and illuminates
the
(Change Engine Oil) light in
the instrument panel cluster when it’s
necessary to change the engine oil and
filter. The Oil Life System should be
reset to 100% only following an oil
change.
To reset the Oil Life System:
1. Turn on the ignition, with the
engine off.
2. Fully press and release the accelera-
tor pedal slowly three times within
five seconds.
