A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS Y our vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. This system consists of a Key Fob with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and a W ir eless Ignition Node (WIN) with integral ignition switch. Y ou can insert the Key Fob into the ignition switch with either side up.
Key Fob The Key Fob operates the ignition switch. Insert the square end of the key fob into the ignition switch located on the instrument panel and r otate to the desired posi- tion. It also contains the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and an emergency key , which stores in the rear of the Key Fob.
T o remove the emer gency key , slide the mechanical latch at the top of the Key Fob sideways with your thumb and then pull the key out with your other hand. NOTE: Y ou can insert the double-sided emergency key into the lock cylinders with either side up.
• The power window switches, radio, power sunroof (if equipped), and power outlets will remain active for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position. Opening either front door will cancel this feature. The time for this featur e is programmable.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder Opening the driver’s door when the Key Fob is in the ignition and the ignition switch position is OFF or ACC, sounds a signal to remind you to r emove the Key Fob. NOTE: The Key-In-Ignition reminder only sounds when the Key Fob is placed in the OFF or ACC ignition position.
If the V ehicle Security Light turns on during normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 sec- onds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electr onics. Should this occur , have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an authorized dealer .
Duplication of Key Fobs may be performed at an autho- rized dealer , this procedure consists of pr ogramming a blank Key Fob to the vehicle electronics. A blank Key Fob is one that has never been programmed. NOTE: When having the Sentry Key 威 Immobilizer system serviced, bring all vehicle Key Fobs with you to the authorized dealer .
NOTE: The Panic and Security alarms are quite dif fer- ent. Please take a moment to activate the Panic and the Security modes to hear the differ ences in the horn. In case one should go off in the futur e, you will need to know which mode has been activated in order to deactivate it.

• An energy-absorbing steering column and steering wheel • Knee bolsters for front seat occupants • Front seat belts incorporate pr etensioners to enhance occupant protection by managing occupan.
Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver , even on short trips. Someone on the road may be a poor driver and cause an accident that includes you. This can happen far away from home or on your own str eet. Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they can reduce the seriousness of injuries in an accident.
W ARNING! (Continued) • It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In an accident, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. • Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
W ARNING! • A belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly . The lap portion could ride too high on your body , possibly causing internal injuries. Always buckle your belt into the buckle nearest you. • A belt that is too loose will not protect you properly .
W ARNING! (Continued) • A belt that is worn under your arm is dangerous. Y our body could strike the inside surfaces of the vehicle in an accident, increasing head and neck injury . A belt worn under the arm can cause internal injuries. Ribs aren’t as strong as shoulder bones.
6. T o release the belt, push the r ed button on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary , slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow it to retract fully . W ARNING! A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in an accident and leave you with no protection.
2. At about 6 to 12 in (15 to 30 cm) above the latch plate, grasp and twist the belt webbing 180 degrees to cr eate a fold that begins immediately above the latch plate. 3. Slide the latch plate upward over the folded webbing. The folded webbing must enter the slot at the top of the latch plate.

instrument panel, above the glove compartment. The words SRS AIRBAG are embossed on the airbag covers. NOTE: These airbags are certified to the new Federal regulations for Advanced Airbags. The Advanced Front Airbags have a multistage inflator design.
This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Airbags (SAB) to provide enhanced protection for an occupant during a side impact. The Supplemental Seat- Mounted Side Airbags are located in the outboar d side of the front seats.
Advanced Front Airbag Features The Advanced Front Airbag system has multistage driver and front passenger airbags. This system pr ovides output appropriate to the severity and type of collision as determined by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), which may receive information fr om the front impact sensors.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Airbags (SAB) Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Airbags pr ovide en- hanced protection to help pr otect an occupant during a side impact. The Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air - bag is marked with an airbag label sewn into the out- board side of the fr ont seats.
Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC) SABIC airbags may offer side-impact and vehicle r ollover protection to fr ont and rear seat outboar d occupants in addition to that provided by the body str ucture.
• Being too close to the SAB and SABIC airbags during deployment could cause you to be severely injur ed or killed. • Should a vehicle rollover occur , the pretensioners, SAB and/or SABIC airbags on both sides of the vehicle may deploy .
Knee Impact Bolsters The Knee Impact Bolsters help protect the knees of the driver and the front passenger , and position front occu- pants for the best interaction with the Advanced Fr ont Airbags.
If a child from 1 to 12 years old (not in a r ear facing child seat) must ride in the front passenger seat, move the seat as far back as possible and use the proper child r estraint. (Refer to “Child Restraints”) Y ou should read the instr uctions provided with your child restraint to make sur e that you are using it pr operly .
W ARNING! (Continued) • Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front Airbag deployment could cause serious injury , including death. Air- bags need room to inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or instrument panel.
Advanced Front Airbags may deploy in crashes with little vehicle front-end damage but that pr oduce a severe initial deceleration. The side airbags will not deploy in all side collisions. Side airbag deployment will depend on the severity and type of collision.
W ARNING! Ignoring the Airbag W arning Light in your instru- ment panel could mean you won’t have the airbags to protect you in a collision. If the light does not come on as a bulb check when the ig.
Based on the severity and type of collision, the side airbag inflator on the crash side of the vehicle may be triggered, r eleasing a quantity of non-toxic gas. The inflating side airbag exits through the seat seam into the space between the occupant and the door .
Front And Side Impact Sensors In front and side impacts, fr ont and side impact sensors can aid the ORC in determining the appropriate r esponse to certain impact events.
If you do have a collision which deploys the airbags, any or all of the following may occur: • The nylon airbag material may sometimes cause abra- sions and/or skin reddening to the driver and fr ont passenger as the airbags deploy and unfold.
Maintaining Y our Airbag System W ARNING! • Modifications to any part of the airbag system could cause it to fail when you need it. Y ou could be injured if the airbag system is not there to protect you.
Airbag W arning Light Y ou will want to have the airbags ready to inflate for your protection in a collision. The Airbag W arning Light monitors the internal circuits and inter connecting wiring associated with airbag system electrical components.
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened; • How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and, • How fast the vehicle was traveling. These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur .
There ar e differ ent sizes and types of restraints for children fr om newborn size to the child almost large enough for an adult safety belt. Always check the child seat Owner’s Manual to ensure you have the right seat for your child. Use the restraint that is corr ect for your child.
W ARNING! • Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of a vehicle with the front passenger airbag unless the airbag is turned off. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury or death to infants in this position. • Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint.

W ARNING! • An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly be- hind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap. • Do not use the cargo tie downs located on the load floor .
While cruising, brief full-thr ottle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws, contributes to a good br eak-in. W ide-open thr ottle acceleration in low gear can be detri- mental and should be avoided. The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving type lubricant.
Exhaust Gas W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you.
Safety Checks Y ou Should Make Inside The V ehicle Seat Belts Inspect the belt system periodically , checking for cuts, frays, and loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately . Do not disassemble or modify the system. Front seat belt assemblies must be r eplaced after a collision.
W ARNING! Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of serious per- sonal injury . • Always make sure that floor mats are properly attached to the floor mat fasteners.
Periodic Safety Checks Y ou Should Make OutsideThe V ehicle T ires Examine tires for excessive tr ead wear and uneven wear patterns. Check for stones, nails, glass, or other objects lodged in the tread. Inspect the tr ead and sidewall for cuts and cracks.

MIRRORS Inside Day/Night Mirror A single ball joint mirror is pr ovided in the vehicle. It is a twist on mirror that has a fixed position. The mirr or head can be adjusted up, down, left, and right for various drivers. The mirror should be adjusted to center on the view through the r ear window .
Automatic Dimming Mirror — If Equipped This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight glar e from vehicles behind you. Y ou can turn the feature on or off by pr essing the button at the base of the mirror . A light in the button will illuminate to indicate when the dim- ming feature is activated.
Outside Mirrors T o receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mirr ors to center on the adjacent lane of traffic with a slight overlap of the view obtained on the inside mirror . W ARNING! V ehicles and other objects seen in the passenger side convex mirror will look smaller and farther away than they really are.
Outside Power Mirrors The power mirror switch is located on the driver’s side door trim panel. The power mirror contr ols consist of mirror select but- tons and a four-way mirr or control switch. T o adjust a mirror , press the mirr or select button for the mirror that you want to adjust.
Heated Mirrors — If Equipped These mirrors ar e heated to melt frost or ice. This feature is activated whenever you turn on the r ear window defroster . Refer to “Rear W indow Featur es” in “Understanding the Features of Y our V ehicle” for further information.
BLIND SPOT MONITORING — IF EQUIPPED The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses two radar- based sensors, located inside the rear bumper fascia, to detect highway licensable vehicles (automobiles, trucks, motorcycles, etc.) that enter the blind spot zones fr om the rear/fr ont/side of the vehicle.
• The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT change if your vehicle is towing a trailer . Therefore, visually verify the adjacent lane is clear for both your vehicle and trailer before making a lane change.
The BSM system notifies the driver of objects in the detection zones by illuminating the BSM warning light located in the outside mirrors. The BSM system can also be configured to sound an audible (chime) alert and reduces the radio volume to notify the driver of objects that have entered the detec- tion zones.
Entering From The Side V ehicles that move into your adjacent lanes from either side of the vehicle. Entering From The Rear V ehicles that come up from behind your vehicle on either side and enter the rear detection zone with a r elative speed of less than 30 mph (48 km/h).
Overtaking T raf fic If you pass another vehicle slowly (with a relative speed less than 10 mph (16 km/h) and the vehicle remains in the blind spot for approximately 1.5 seconds, the warning light will be illuminated. If the differ ence in speed between the two vehicles is greater than 10 mph (16 km/h), the warning light will not illuminate.
The BSM system is designed not to issue an alert on stationary objects such as guardrails, posts, walls, foliage, berms, etc. However , occasionally the system may alert on such objects. This is normal operation and your vehicle does not requir e service.
W ARNING! The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an aid to help detect objects in the blind spot zones. The BSM system is not designed to detect pedestrians, bicy- clists, or animals.
NOTE: In a parking lot situation, oncoming vehicles can be obscured by vehicles parked on either side. If the sensors are blocked by other str uctures or vehicles, the system will not be able to alert the driver .
signal is then activated, and it corresponds to an alert present on that side of the vehicle, an audible chime will also be sounded. Whenever a turn signal and detected object are pr esent on the same side at the same time, both the visual and audio alerts will be issued.

POWER TIL T/TELESCOPING STEERING COLUMN — IF EQUIPPED This feature allows you to tilt the steering column upward or downwar d. It also allows you to lengthen or shorten the steering column. The power tilt/telescoping steering column lever is located below the multifunction lever on the steering column.
W ARNING! Do not adjust the steering column while driving. Adjusting the steering column while driving or driv- ing with the steering column unlocked, could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Be sure the steering column is locked before driving your ve- hicle.
W ARNING! • Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury , medication, alcohol use, ex- haustion, or other physical conditions must exer- cise care when using the steering wheel heater .
NOTE: In order to ensur e proper operation, the Elec- tronic Speed Contr ol System has been designed to shut down if multiple Speed Control functions ar e operated at the same time.
T o Set A Desired Speed T urn the Electronic Speed Contr ol ON. When the vehicle has reached the desir ed speed, press the SET (-) button and release. Release the accelerator and the vehicle will operate at the selected speed. NOTE: The vehicle should be traveling at a steady speed and on level ground befor e pressing the SET button.
T o Accelerate For Passing Press the accelerator as you would normally . When the pedal is released, the vehicle will r eturn to the set speed. Using Electronic Speed Control On Hills The transmission may downshift on hills to maintain the vehicle set speed.
ACC will allow you to keep cruise contr ol engaged in light to moderate traffic conditions without the constant need to reset your cr uise control. ACC utilizes a radar sensor designed to detect a vehicle directly ahead of you. NOTE: • If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set speed.
W ARNING! (Continued) − Cannot take street, traffic, and weather conditions into account, and may be limited upon adverse sight distance conditions. − Does not predict the lane curvature or the move- ment of preceding vehicles and will not compensate for such changes.
The Cruise Contr ol system has two control modes: • Adaptive Cruise Contr ol mode for maintaining an appropriate distance between vehicles. • Normal (fixed speed) cruise contr ol mode for cruising at a constant preset speed. For additional information, refer to “Normal (Fixed Speed) Cr uise Control Mode” in this section.
NOTE: Any chassis/suspension modifications to the vehicle will effect the performance of the Adaptive Cruise Control. Activating Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Y ou can only activate ACC if the vehicle speed is above 25 mph (40 km/h).
T o Activate Push and release the ON/OFF button. The ACC menu in the EVIC displays “Adaptive Cruise Ready .” T o turn the system OFF , push and release the ON/OFF button again. At this time, the system will turn off and the EVIC will display “Adaptive Cruise Contr ol Off.
T o Set A Desired ACC Speed When the vehicle reaches the speed desir ed, push the SET - button and release. The EVIC will display the set speed. Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal. If you do not, the vehicle may continue to accelerate beyond the set speed.
T o Cancel The system will disable ACC without erasing the memory if: • Y ou softly tap the brake pedal. • Y ou depress the brake pedal. • Y ou press the CANCEL switch. • An Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) event occurs. • A T railer Sway Control (TSC) event occurs.
NOTE: If ACC is resumed or set with the ESC/TCS is off, ESC will automatically be r e-engaged. T o T urn Off The system will turn off and erase the set speed in memory if: • Y ou push and release the ON/OFF button. • Y ou turn OFF the ignition. • Y ou switch off ESC.
W ARNING! The Resume function should only be used if traffic and road conditions permit. Resuming a set speed that is too high or too low for prevailing traffic and road conditions could cause the vehicle to accelerate or decelerate too sharply for safe operation.
• The ACC system maintains set speed when driving up hill and down hill. However , a slight speed change on moderate hills is normal. In addition, downshifting may occur while climbing uphill or descending down- hill. This is normal operation and necessary to main- tain set speed.
Distance Setting 2 Distance Setting 1 3 UNDERST ANDING THE FEA TURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 175.
T o change the distance setting, press the Distance button and release. Each time the button is pr essed, the distance setting adjusts between long, medium, and short.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Menu The EVIC displays the current ACC system settings. The EVIC is located in the upper part of the instrument cluster between the speedometer and the tachometer . The information it displays depends on ACC system status.
The set speed will continue to display in place of the odometer reading when changing the EVIC display while ACC is set. The ACC screen will display once again if any ACC activity occurs, which may in.
system may also become temporarily blinded due to obstructions, such as mud, dirt or ice. In these cases, the EVIC will display “Clean Radar Sensor In Front Of V ehicle” and the system will deactivate. NOTE: If the ACC “Clean Radar Sensor In Front Of V ehicle” warning is active Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control is still available.
• Do not attach or install any accessories near the sensor , including transparent material or aftermarket grilles. Doing so could cause an ACC system failure or malfunction.
NOTE: When the sensor is removed, Adaptive Cruise Control, Normal Cr uise Control, and Forward Collision W arning will not be available. The cluster will display the warning “ACC/FCW Unavailable - Service Radar Sen- sor .” T o reinstall the sensor and bracket assembly r everse the process above.
Precautions While Driving With ACC In certain driving situations, ACC may have detection issues. In these cases, ACC may brake late or unexpect- edly . The driver needs to stay alert and may need to intervene. Adding A T railer Hitch The weight of a trailer hitch may affect the performance of ACC.
ACC may occasionally provide braking and/or a driver alert that you consider unnecessary . This may be the system’s response to signs, guar drails, and other station- ary objects in a curve. This may also occur at the base of steep hills. This is normal operation and your vehicle does not requir e service.
Lane Changing ACC will not detect a vehicle until it is completely in the lane in which you are traveling. In the illustration shown, ACC has not yet detected the vehicle changing lanes and it may not detect the vehicle until it’s too late for the ACC system to take action.
Stationary Objects And V ehicles ACC does not react to stationary objects and stationary vehicles. For example, ACC will not react in situations where the vehicle you ar e following exits your lane and the vehicle ahead is stopped in your lane. Always be attentive and ready to apply the brakes if necessary .
Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode In addition to Adaptive Cruise Control mode, a normal (fixed speed) Cruise Contr ol mode is available for cruis- ing at fixed speeds. The normal Cruise Contr ol mode is designed to maintain a set cruising speed without r equir- ing the driver to operate the accelerator .
T o V ary The Speed Setting There ar e two ways to change the set speed: • Use the accelerator pedal to adjust the vehicle to the desired speed and pr ess the SET - button. • T ap the RES + or SET - button to increase or decr ease the set speed in 1 mph (1 km/h) increments r espec- tively .
Forward Collision W arning — If Equipped Forward Collision W arning (FCW) warns the driver of a potential collision with the vehicle in front of you and prompts the driver to take action in or der to avoid the collision.
W ARNING! Forward Collision W arning (FCW) is not intended to avoid a collision on its own. The driver has the responsibility to avoid a collision by controlling the vehicle via braking and steering. Failure to follow this warning could lead to serious injury or death.
Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting, allows the system to warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle in front of you when you ar e much closer . This setting provides less r eaction time than the “Far” setting, which allows for a more dynamic driving experience.
NOTE: • The system will retain the last setting selected by the driver after ignition shut down. • FCW will not react to irr elevant objects such as over- head objects, ground r eflections, objects not in the path of the car , stationary objects that are far away , oncom- ing traffic, or leading vehicles with the same or higher rate of speed.
Service FCW W arning If the system turns off, and the EVIC displays “ACC/ FCW Unavailable Service Radar Sensor”, it indicates there is an internal system fault. Although the vehicle is still drivable under normal conditions, have the system checked by an authorized dealer .

OFF-ROAD DRIVING TIPS NOTE: Prior to off-r oad driving, remove the fr ont air dam to prevent damage. The fr ont air dam is attached to the lower front fascia with seven quarter turn fasteners and can be removed by hand.
Driving Through W ater Although your vehicle is capable of driving through water , there are a number of pr ecautions that must be considered befor e entering the water . NOTE: Y our vehicle is capable of water fording in up to 20 inches (51 cm) of water , while crossing small rivers or streams.
Standing W ater A void driving in standing water deeper than 20 inches (51 cm), and reduce speed appr opriately to minimize wave effects. Maximum speed in 20 inches (51 cm) of water is less than 5 mph (8 km/h).
regulate your speed. If the brakes ar e requir ed to control vehicle speed, apply them lightly and avoid locking or skidding the tires. W ARNING! If the engine stalls, you lose forward motion, or cannot make it to the top of a steep hill or grade, never attempt to turn around.
• Completely inspect the underbody of your vehicle. Check tires, body str ucture, steering, suspension, and exhaust system for damage. • Inspect the radiator for mud and debris and clean as requir ed. • Check threaded fasteners for looseness, particularly on the chassis, drivetrain components, steering, and sus- pension.
and increased ease of maneuverability in tight spaces. The system will vary its assist to provide light ef forts while parking and good feel while driving. If the electro- hydraulic power steering system experiences a fault that prevents it fr om providing power steering assist, then the system will provide mechanical steering capability .
• If the condition persists, see your authorized dealer for service. 5.7L Engine The standard power steering system will give you good vehicle response and incr eased ease of maneuverability in tight spaces. The system will provide mechanical steering capability if power assist is lost.
Power Steering Fluid Check Checking the power steering fluid level at a defined service interval is not requir ed. The fluid should only be checked if a leak is suspected, abnormal noises are apparent, and/or the system is not functioning as antici- pated.
MUL TI-DISPLACEMENT SYSTEM (MDS) (IF EQUIPPED) — 5.7L ENGINE ONL Y This feature of fers improved fuel economy by shutting off four of the engine’s eight cylinders during light load and cruise conditions. The system is automatic with no driver inputs or additional driving skills requir ed.
NOTE: • When the parking brake is applied and the transmis- sion is placed in gear , the “Brake W arning Light” will flash. If vehicle speed is detected, a chime will sound to alert the driver . Fully release the parking brake before attempting to move the vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Always fully apply the parking brake when leav- ing your vehicle, or it may roll and cause damage or injury . Also be certain to leave the transmission in P ARK. Failure to do so may allow the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury .
W ARNING! The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. The ABS cannot prevent collisions, including those re- sulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning.
benefit of the system, you must apply continuous brak- ing pressur e during the stopping sequence (do not “pump” the brakes). Do not reduce brake pedal pr essure unless braking is no longer desired. Once the brake pedal is released, the BAS is deactivated.

(Continued) • Unequal tire pressures from one side of the ve- hicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left. • Always drive with each tire inflated to the recom- mended cold tire inflation pressure. Economy Improper inflation pr essures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tir e tread.
CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage it. Inflation pressur es specified on the placard ar e always cold tire inflation pr essure.
Tire Pressures For High Speed Operation The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or condi- tions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high speeds, maintaining correct tir e inflation pressur e is very important.
Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped T ire and Wheel – If Equipped The spare tir e of your vehicle is equivalent in look and function as the original equipment tire and wheel found on the front or r ear axle of your vehicle. This spare tir e may be used in the tire r otation for your vehicle.
Since this tire has limited tr ead life the original equip- ment tire should be r epaired (or r eplaced) and reinstalled on your vehicle at the first opportunity . Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount a conventional tire on the compact spar e wheel, since the wheel is designed specifically for the compact spare.
your original equipment tire, r eplace (or repair) the original equipment tire and r einstall on the vehicle at the first opportunity . W ARNING! Limited-use spares are for emergency use only . In- stallation of this limited-use spare tire affects vehicle handling.
T read W ear Indicators T read wear indicators ar e in the original equipment tires to help you in determining when your tires should be replaced. These indicators are molded into the bottom of the tr ead grooves. They will appear as bands when the tr ead depth becomes 1/16 in (2 mm).
W ARNING! T ires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure. Y ou could lose control and have an collision resulting in serious injury or death.
W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combinations of unapproved tires and wheels may change sus- pension dimensions and performance characteris- tics, resulting in changes to steering, handling, and braking of your vehicle.
• Due to limited clearance, use SAE class “S” low profile cables or traction devices only . Security Chain Com- pany (SCC) Super Z6 #SZ 441 cables or equivalent are recommended. W ARNING! Using tires of different size and type (M+S, Snow) between front and rear axles can cause unpredictable handling.
CAUTION! (Continued) • Observe the traction device manufacturer ’ s in- structions on the method of installation, operating speed, and conditions for use. Always use the suggested operating speed of the device manufac- turer ’ s if it is less than 30 mph (48 km/h).
These effects can be r educed by timely rotation of tir es. The benefits of rotation ar e especially worthwhile with aggressive tr ead designs such as those on On/Off-Road type tires. Rotation will incr ease tread life, help to main- tain mud, snow , and wet traction levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride.

FUEL REQUIREMENTS 3.6L Engine This engine is designed to meet all emis- sions regulations and pr ovide excellent fuel economy and performance when us- ing high-quality unleaded “regular” gaso- line having an octane rating of 87.
Reformulated Gasoline Many areas of the country r equire the use of cleaner burning gasoline referr ed to as “Reformulated Gasoline.” Reformulated gasoline contains oxygenates and are spe- cifically blended to reduce vehicle emissions and im- prove air quality .
If a Non-FFV vehicle is inadvertently fueled with E85 fuel, the engine will have some or all of these symptoms: • operate in a lean mode • OBD II “Malfunction Indicator Light” on • poor engi.
Materials Added to Fuel All gasoline sold in the United States is requir ed to contain effective deter gent additives. Use of additional detergents or other additives is not needed under normal conditions and they would result in additional cost. Therefor e, you should not have to add anything to the fuel.
Carbon Monoxide W arnings W ARNING! Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is deadly . Follow the precautions below to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning: • Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas, which can kill.
the other sections of this manual for information on features that ar e common between Flexible Fuel and gasoline-only powered vehicles. CAUTION! Only vehicles with the E85 fuel filler door label can operate on E85.
Ethanol Fuel (E85) E85 is a mixture of appr oximately 85% fuel ethanol and 15% unleaded gasoline. W ARNING! Ethanol vapors are extremely flammable and could cause serious personal injury . Never have any smok- ing materials lit in or near the vehicle when remov- ing the fuel filler tube cap (gas cap) or filling the tank.
• Some additives used in regular gasoline ar e not fully compatible with E85 and may form deposits in your engine. T o eliminate driveability issues that may be caused by these deposits, a supplemental gasoline additive, such as MOP AR 威 Injector Cleanup or T echron may be used.
Replacement Parts Many components in your Flexible Fuel V ehicle (FFV) are designed to be compatible with ethanol. Always be sure that your vehicle is serviced with correct ethanol com- patible parts. CAUTION! Replacing fuel system components with non-ethanol compatible components can damage your vehicle.
