Owner’s Guide.

FUEL PUMP SHUT OFF
SWITCH

This device

stops the electric
fuel pump from
sending fuel to the
engine when your
vehicle has had a
substantial jolt. After
an accident, if you
find that the engine
cranks, but does not
start, this switch
may have been
activated. The fuel
pump shut off switch
is in the front
passenger’s footwell,
behind a flip-up
cover, by the kick
panel access cover.

LOCATION OF SPARE
TIRE AND TOOLS

The jack and tools
are either under the
carpeted floorboard
or in the right rear of
the cargo area
behind an access
panel. The spare tire
is under the rear
of the vehicle. For
more information,
please consult your
Owner’s Guide.

TIRE PRESSURE

Safe operation of
your Mariner requires
your tires to be

At least once a
month and before
long trips, inspect
each tire and check
the air pressure with
a tire gauge. Don’t
forget the spare.

Air pressure should
be checked when
the tires are cold.

CHANGING THE TIRES

heavily. Instead,
gradually decrease
your speed. Hold the

which is smaller
than a regular tire,
