Vehicles with spare wheel:
Some tire sizes do not allow the damaged
road wheel to be stored in the spare wheel
well in the trunk/cargo compartment. It
should then be transported in the trunk/
cargo compartment wrapped in the
protective film/bag that comes with the
spare wheel.
i
Vehicles with TPMS or Advanced TPMS:
Do not restart the tire inflation pressure
monitor until a full size wheel/tire with
functioning sensor has been placed back
into service on the vehicle.

refueling the vehicle.

X
Make sure the automatic transmission is in
park position P.
X
Do not depress the accelerator.
X
Turn the SmartKey in the starter switch to
position 2 for at least 10 seconds.
X
Return the SmartKey in the starter switch
to position 0.
X
Turn the SmartKey in the starter switch to
position 3 and hold it there for a maximum
of 40 seconds or until the engine runs
surge-free.
If the engine does not start:
X
Wait for approximately 2 minutes.
X
Turn the SmartKey in the starter switch to
position 3 and hold it there for a maximum
of 40 seconds or until the engine runs
