camera screen
§Consider moving your device closer to or farther away from the code
§The code should be well lit, without significant shadow
§Avoid scanning from a significant angle
§Confirm that the device’s app supports 2D QR Code scanning
§Try another QR Code Reader app; not all apps are created equal
2. After scanning, you may experience a “connection error” message or a “connecting” message with no subsequent response. These messages typically

Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle
control that may lead to an accident, severe personal
injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility
is in the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, and
handheld devices, other equipment or vehicle
systems which take the driver’s eyes, attention and
focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle or
that are not permissible by law should never be used
during operation of the vehicle.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)†24
The indicator functions as both Low Tire Pressure Light
and TPMS Malfunction Indicator.
The TPMS indicator illuminates if it detects
one or more tires is significantly under
inflated, the vehicle has a spare tire installed
without TPMS or the outside temperature
becomes significantly lower.
• The LCD screen in the instrument cluster will display the Low Tire
Pressure indicator Ashowing which tire(s) is underinflated
• Inflate tire(s) to specifications using an accurate tire pressure gauge to
turn off Low Tire Pressure Light . 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 at least
20 minutes tires and 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
QUICK TIPS
Fuel Economy
There are several factors that 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
help 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
• Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary
weight in your vehicle
• Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof
racks
• Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
Refer to section 4 in the Owner’s Manual for more information
or snap the QR Code above to view a video.
Images are for illustrative purposes only. Actual image or
feature may vary.
REMINDERS:
• Check the recommended tire pressure label located on the left side of driver’s door jamb, visible when the door is opened
• Consult your dealer for service if Low Tire Pressure Light remains illuminated after inflating your tire(s)
• 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 Light) to illuminate
