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 Keyless Ignition Node (KIN).
Key Fob The Key Fob also contains the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and an emergency key , which stor es in the rear of the Key Fob. The emergency key allows for entry into the vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the Key Fob go dead.
T o remove the emer gency key , slide the mechanical latch on the back 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.
W ARNING! • When leaving the vehicle, always remove the Key Fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle. • Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. • Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons.
After cycling the ignition to the ON/RUN position, the V ehicle Security Light will turn on for three seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the electronics.
NOTE: • When having the Sentry Key 威 Immobilizer System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an autho- rized dealer . • If a programmed Key Fob is lost, see your authorized dealer to have all remaining Key Fobs erased from the system’s memory .

T ransmitter Battery Replacement The recommended replacement battery is one CR2032 battery . NOTE: • Perchlorate Material — special handling may apply . See www .dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate • Do not touch the battery terminals that are on the back housing or the printed circuit board.
3. Remove the battery by turning the back cover over (battery facing downward) and tapping it lightly on a solid surface such as a table or similar , then replace the battery . When replacing the battery , match the + sign on the battery to the + sign on the inside of the battery clip, located on the back cover .
REMOTE ST ARTING SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED This system uses the Key Fob with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter to start the engine conveniently from outside the vehicle while still maintaining security . The system has a range of approximately 300 ft (91 m).
W ARNING! • Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or confined area. Exhaust gas contains Carbon Mon- oxide (CO) which is odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous and can cause serious in- jury or death when inhaled. • Keep Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitters away from children.
• The park lamps will turn on and remain on during Remote Start mode. • For security , power window and power sunroof op- eration (if equipped) are disabled when the vehicle is in the Remote Start mode. • The engine can be started two consecutive times (two 15-minute cycles) with the RKE transmitter .
If the door lock knob is down when you shut the door , the door will lock. Therefor e, make sure the Key Fob is not inside the vehicle before closing the door . W ARNING! • For personal security and safety in the event of a collision, lock the vehicle doors before you drive as well as when you park and leave the vehicle.
Power Door Locks A power door lock switch is on each front door trim panel. Use this switch to lock or unlock the doors. The doors can also be locked and unlocked with the Keyless Enter -N-Go™ (Passive Entry) system. For further information, refer to “Keyless Enter-N-Go™ ” in “Things T o Know Before Starting Y our V ehicle”.
Automatic Unlock Doors On Exit The doors will unlock automatically on vehicles with power door locks if: 1. The Automatic Unlock Doors On Exit feature is en- abled. 2. The vehicle was in motion, then speed returned to 0 mph (0 km/h) and the transmission shift lever is placed in NEUTRAL.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the opposite rear door . W ARNING! A void trapping anyone in a vehicle in a collision. Remember that the rear doors can only be opened from the outside when the Child-Protection locks are engaged (locked).
NOTE: • Passive Entry may be programmed ON/OFF; refer to “Uconnect 威 Settings” in “Understanding Y our Instru- ment Panel” for further information. • If wearing gloves on your hands, or if it has been raining on the Passive Entry door handle, the unlock sensitivity can be affected, resulting in a slower re- sponse time.
NOTE: If “Unlock All Doors 1st Press” is programmed all doors will unlock when you grab hold of the front driver ’s door handle. T o select between “Unlock Driver Door 1st Press” and “Unlock All Doors 1st Press”, refer to “Uconnect 威 Settings” in “Understanding Y our Instru- ment Panel” for further information.
NOTE: The vehicle will only unlock the doors when the doors are locked using the door panel switch, a valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter is detected inside the vehicle, and no valid Passive Entry RKE transmitter is detected outside the vehicle.
NOTE: If you inadvertently leave your vehicle’s Passive Entry RKE transmitter in the trunk and try to close the deck lid, the deck lid will automatically unlatch, unless another one of the vehicle’s Passive Entry RKE transmit- ters is outside the vehicle and within 3 ft (1.
NOTE: • After pressing the door handle LOCK button, you must wait two seconds before you can lock or unlock the doors, using either Passive Entry door handle. This is done to allow you to check if the vehicle is locked by pulling the door handle, without the vehicle reacting and unlocking.
WINDOWS Power Windows The window controls on the driver’s door control all the door windows. There are single window contr ols on each passenger door trim panel, which operate the passenger door windows. The window controls will operate only when the ignition is in the ACC or ON/RUN position.
W ARNING! Never leave children unattended in a vehicle, and do not let children play with power windows. Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, and do not leave a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN mode.
NOTE: • If the window runs into any obstacle during auto- closure, it will reverse direction and then go back down. Remove the obstacle and use the window switch again to close the window . • Any impact due to rough road conditions may trigger the auto-reverse function unexpectedly during auto- closure.
sunscreen, press and release the window lockout button (setting it in the DOWN position). T o enable the window controls and the rear sunscreen, press and release the window lockout button again (setting it in the UP position).
NOTE: The transmission must be in P ARK before the button will operate. The trunk lid can be released fr om outside the vehicle by pr essing the TRUNK button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter twice within five seconds or by using the external release switch located on the underside of the decklid overhang.
T runk Emergency Release As a security measur e, a T runk Internal Emergency Release lever is built into the trunk latching mechanism. In the event of an individual being locked inside the tr unk, the trunk can be simply opened by pulling on the glow-in-the- dark handle attached to the trunk latching mechanism.
• Front seat belts incorporate pretensioners that may enhance occupant protection by managing occupant energy during an impact event Please pay close attention to the information in this section. It tells you how to use your restraint system properly , to keep you and your passengers as safe as possible.
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 restraint. (Refer to “Child Restraints”) Y ou should read the instructions provided with your child r estraint to make sur e that you are using it properly .
W ARNING! (Continued) • Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front Air Bag 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.
Lap/Shoulder Belts All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with lap/shoulder belts. The belt webbing retractor is designed to lock during very sudden stops or impacts. This feature allows the shoulder part of the belt to move freely with you under normal conditions.
W ARNING! (Continued) • T wo people should never be belted into a single seat belt. People belted together can crash into one another in a collision, hurting one another badly . Never use a lap/shoulder belt or a lap belt for more than one person, no matter what their size.
3. When the belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.” 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.
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 a collision, increasing head and neck injury . A belt worn under the arm can cause internal injuries. Ribs aren’t as strong as shoulder bones.
W ARNING! • A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of internal injury in a collision. The belt forces won’t be at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across your abdomen. Always wear the lap belt as low as possible and keep it snug. • A twisted belt may not protect you properly .
above the webbing to r elease the anchorage, then move it up or down to the position that fits you best. As a guide, if you are shorter than average you will prefer a lower position, and if you are taller than average you will prefer a higher position.
Seat Belts In Passenger Seating Positions The seat belts in the passenger seating positions are equipped with Automatic Locking Retractors (ALR) which are used to secure a child restraint system. For additional information, refer to “Installing Child Re- straints Using The V ehicle Seat Belt” under the “Child Restraints” section.
position that has a belt with this feature. Children 12 years old and under should always be properly restrained in the rear seat. How T o Engage The Automatic Locking Mode 1. Buckle the combination lap and shoulder belt. 2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pull downward until the entire belt is extracted.
Seat Belt Pretensioner The seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with pretensioning devices that are designed to remove slack fr om the seat belt in the event of a collision. These devices may improve the performance of the seat belt by assuring that the belt is tight about the occupant early in a collision.
unbuckled while traveling at speeds greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), BeltAlert 威 will provide both audio and visual notification. The fr ont passenger seat BeltAlert 威 is not active when the front passenger seat is unoccupied.
W ARNING! Using a seat belt extender when not needed can in- crease the risk of injury in a collision. Only use when the seat belt is not long enough when it is worn low and snug and in the recommended seating positions. Remove and store the extender when not needed.
NOTE: The Driver and Front Passenger Advanced Fr ont Air Bags are certified to the new Federal regulations for Advanced Air Bags. The Advanced Front Air Bags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the air bag to have different rates of inflation based on several factors, including the severity and type of collision.
Air Bag System Components Y our vehicle may be equipped with the following air bag system components: • Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) • Air Bag W arning Light • Steering Wheel and Column .
W ARNING! • No objects should be placed over or near the air bag on the instrument panel, because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a collision severe enough to cause the air bag to inflate. • Do not put anything on or around the air bag covers or attempt to open them manually .
When the air bag deploys, it opens the seam between the front and side of the seat’s trim cover . Each air bag deploys independently; a left side impact deploys the left air bag only and a right-side impact deploys the right air bag only .
The system includes side impact sensors that are cali- brated to deploy the side air bags during impacts that requir e air bag occupant protection. W ARNING! • Y our vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC), do not stack luggage or other cargo up high enough to block the location of the SABIC.
Knee Impact Bolsters The Knee Impact Bolster helps protect the knees of the front passenger , and position the front occupant for the best interaction with the Advanced Front Air Bag.
Advanced Front Air Bags may deploy in crashes with little vehicle fr ont-end damage but that pr oduce a severe initial deceleration. The side air bags will not deploy in all side collisions. Side air bag deployment will depend on the severity and type of collision.
W ARNING! Ignoring the Air Bag W arning Light in your instru- ment panel could mean you won’t have the air bags to protect you in a collision. If the light does not come on as a bulb check when the .
A large quantity of non-toxic gas is generated to inflate the Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air Bag. The trim cover separates and folds out of the way allowing the air bag to inflate to the full size. The air bag fully inflates in about 15 to 20 milliseconds.
blink your eyes) with enough force to injure you if you are not belted and seated properly , or if items are positioned in the area where the side curtain air bag inflates. This especially applies to children. The side curtain air bag is only about 3-1/2 in (9 cm) thick when it is inflated.
If A Deployment Occurs The Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to deflate immediately after deployment. NOTE: Front and/or side air bags will not deploy in all collisions.
W ARNING! Deployed air bags and seat belt pretensioners cannot protect you in another collision. Have the air bags, seat belt pretensioners, and the front seat belt retrac- tor assemblies replaced by an authorized dealer im- mediately . Also, have the Occupant Restraint Con- troller (ORC) system serviced as well.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not attempt to modify any part of your air bag system. The air bag may inflate accidentally or may not function properly if modifications are made. T ake your vehicle to an authorized dealer for any air bag system service.
NOTE: If the speedometer , tachometer , or any engine related gauges are not working, the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) may also be disabled. The air bags may not be ready to inflate for your protection. Promptly check the fuse block for blown fuses.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no per- sonal data (e.
Before buying any restraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets all applicable Safety Standards. Y ou should also make sur e that you can install it in the vehicle where you will use it. NOTE: For additional information, refer to www .
Summary Of Recommendations For Restraining Children In V ehicles Child Size, Height, W eight or Age Recommended T ype of Child Restraint Infants and T oddlers Children who are two years old or younger.
Infants And Child Restraints Safety experts r ecommend that childr en ride r earward- facing in the vehicle until they are two years old or until they reach either the height or weight limit of their rear facing child safety seat. T wo types of child restraints can be used rearwar d-facing: infant carriers and convertible child seats.
remain in a forward-facing child seat with a harness for as long as possible, up to the highest weight or height allowed by the child seat. All children whose weight or height is above the forward-facing limit for the child seat should use a belt-positioning booster seat until the vehicle’s seat belts fit properly .
Children T oo Large For Booster Seats Children who are large enough to wear the shoulder belt comfortably , and whose legs are long enough to bend over the front of the seat when their back is against the seatback, should use the seat belt in a rear seat.

What is the weight limit (child’s weight + weight of the child restraint) for using the LA TCH anchorage system to attach the child restraint? 65 lbs (29.5 kg) Use the LA TCH anchorage system until the combined weight of the child and the child restraint is 65 lbs (29.
Can two child restraints be attached using a common lower LA TCH anchorage? No Never “share” a LA TCH anchorage with two or more child restraints. If the center position does not have dedicated LA.
Locating The LA TCH Anchorages The lower anchorages are round bars that are found at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback, below the anchorage sym- bols on the seatback. They are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child r estraint.
window . These tether strap anchorages are under a plastic cover with the tether anchorage symbol on it. LA TCH-compatible child restraint systems will be equipped with a rigid bar or a flexible strap on each side. Each will have a hook or connector to attach to the lower anchorage and a way to tighten the connection to the anchorage.
Always follow the directions of the child restraint manu- facturer when installing your child r estraint. Not all child restraint systems will be installed as described here.
How T o Stow An Unused ALR Seatbelt When using the LA TCH attaching system to install a child restraint, stow all ALR seat belts that are not being used by other occupants or being used to secur e child restraints. An unused belt could injure a child if they play with it and accidentally lock the seatbelt retractor .

Installing A Child Restraint with a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) 1. Place the child seat in the center of the seating position. For some second row seats, you may need to recline the seat and/or raise the head restraint to get a better fit.
9. T est that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat at the belt path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any direction. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally , and pull it tight if necessary .

1 — Cover A — T ether Strap Hook 3 — Attaching Strap B — T ether Anchor 4. Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to the top tether anchorage as shown in the diagram. 5. Remove slack in the tether strap accor ding to the child restraint manufacturer ’s instructions.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws contributes to a good break-in. W ide-open throttle 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.
W ARNING! • Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather . Interior heat build-up may cause serious injury or death. • It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.
W ARNING! (Continued) • If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running, adjust your heating or cooling controls to force outside air into the vehicle. Set the blower at high speed. The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle body is a pr operly maintained engine exhaust system.
Defroster Check operation by selecting the defrost mode and place the blower control on high speed. Y ou should be able to feel the air directed against the windshield. See your authorized dealer for service if your defroster is inoperable. Floor Mat Safety Information Always use floor mats designed to fit the footwell of your vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Check mounting of mats on a regular basis. Always properly reinstall and secure floor mats that have been removed for cleaning. • Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver footwell while the vehicle is moving.
Lights Have someone observe the operation of brake lights and exterior lights while you work the contr ols. Check turn signal and high beam indicator lights on the instrument panel.

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 detection zone covers approximately one lane on both sides of the vehicle (1 1 ft or 3.35 m). The zone starts at the outside rear view mirror and extends ap- proximately 20 ft (6 m) to the r ear of the vehicle.
The area on the rear fascia where the radar sensors are located must remain free of snow , ice, and dirt/road contamination so that the BSM system can function properly . Do not block the area of the rear fascia where the radar sensors are located with foreign objects (bum- per stickers, bicycle racks, etc.
Entering From The Rear V ehicles that come up from behind your vehicle on either side and enter the rear detection zone with a relative speed of less than 30 mph (48 km/h). Overtaking T raffic If you pass another vehicle slowly (with a relative speed of less than 10 mph (16 km/h) and the vehicle remains in the blind spot for appr oximately 1.
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 guar drails, posts, walls, foliage, berms, etc. However , occasionally the system may alert on such objects.
The BSM system will not alert you of objects that are traveling in the opposite direction of the vehicle in adjacent lanes. Stationary Objects Opposing T raffic 3 UNDERST ANDING THE FEA TURES OF YOUR .
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 ar e blocked by other structur es or vehicles, the system will not be able to alert the driver .
turn 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 de- tected object are present on the same side at the same time, both the visual and audio alerts will be issued.

ACC will allow you to keep cruise control engaged in light to moderate traffic conditions without the constant need to reset your cruise contr ol. 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 condi- tions 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 compen- sate for such changes.
The Cruise Control system has two control modes: • Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintaining an appropriate distance between vehicles. • Normal (fixed speed) cruise control mode is for cruis- ing at a constant preset speed. For additional informa- tion, refer to “Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode” in this section.
NOTE: Any chassis/suspension modifications to the ve- hicle 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 20 mph (32 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 Control Off.
W ARNING! Leaving the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system on when not in use is dangerous. Y ou could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. Y ou could lose control and have a collision. Always leave the system off when you are not using it.
• The system will not be controlling the distance be- tween your vehicle and the vehicle ahead. The vehicle speed will only be determined by the position of the accelerator pedal. T o Cancel The system will disable ACC without erasing the memory if: • Y ou softly tap the brake pedal.
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. T o Resume Speed Press the RES + button and r elease. Then remove your foot fr om the accelerator pedal.
T o V ary The Speed Setting While ACC is set, you can increase the set speed by pressing and holding the RES + button. If the button is continually pressed, the set speed will continue to in- crease in 5 mph (8 km/h) increments until the button is released.
Setting The Following Distance In ACC The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between 3 (long), 2 (me- dium), and 1 (short). Using this distance setting and the vehicle speed, ACC calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle ahead.
T o change the distance setting, press the Distance button and release. Each time the button is pressed, the distance setting adjusts between 3 (long), 2 (medium), and 1 (short).
The maximum braking applied by ACC is limited; how- ever , the driver can always apply the brakes manually , if necessary . NOTE: The brake lights will illuminate whenever the ACC system applies the brakes. A Proximity W arning will alert the driver if ACC predicts that its maximum braking level is not sufficient to maintain the set distance.
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.
Press and release the UP or DOWN button until “ACC” or “Cruise” is highlighted in the EVIC. Status of the ACC or Cruise is also displayed in the menu line.
Display Warnings And Maintenance “Clean Radar Sensor In Front Of V ehicle” W arning The ACC “Clean Radar Sensor In Front Of V ehicle” warning will display when conditions temporarily limit system performance. This most often occurs at times of poor visibility , such as in snow or heavy rain.
• If the sensor is damaged due to a collision, see your authorized dealer for service. • Do not attach or install any accessories near the sensor , including transpar ent material or aftermarket grilles. Doing so could cause an ACC system failure or malfunction.
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, guardrails, 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 ar e 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 r eact in situations where the vehicle you are 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 Control mode is available for cruis- ing at fixed speeds. The normal Cruise Control 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 are two ways to change the set speed: • Use the accelerator pedal to adjust the vehicle to the desired speed and press the SET - button. • T ap the RES + or SET - button to increase or decrease the set speed in 1 mph (1.
Forward Collision W arning — If Equipped The Forward Collision W arning (FCW) system provides the driver with audible and visual warnings (within the EVIC) when it detects a potential fr ontal collision. The warnings are intended to provide the driver with enough time to react and avoid the potential collision.
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 are much closer . This setting provides less reaction time than the “Far” setting, which allows for a more dynamic driving experience.
FCW Unavailable W arning If the system turns off, and the EVIC displays “ACC/ FCW Unavailable, Service Required”, there may be a temporary malfunction that limits FCW functionality . Although the vehicle is still drivable under normal conditions, FCW will be temporarily unavailable.
Refer to ParkSense 威 System Usage Precautions for limi- tations of this system and recommendations. ParkSense 威 will retain the last system state (enabled or disabled) from the last ignition cycle when the ignition is changed to the ON/RUN position.
The ParkSense 威 W arning screen is located within the Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC). It pr ovides visual warnings to indicate the distance between the rear fascia/bumper and/or front fascia/bumper and the de- tected obstacle.
The system will indicate a detected obstacle by showing three solid arcs and will produce a one-half second tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the object the EVIC display will show fewer arcs and the sound tone will change from slow , to fast, to continuous.
The vehicle is close to the obstacle when the EVIC display shows one flashing arc and sounds a continuous tone. The following chart shows the warning alert operation when the system is detecting an ob.

This type of start can be dangerous if done improperly . Refer to “Jump Starting” in “What T o Do In Emergen- cies” for further information.
The engine block heater must be plugged in at least one hour to have an adequate warming effect on the engine. The engine block heater cord is routed under the hood on the driver side of the vehicle. It has a removable cap that is located on the driver side of the Integrated Power Module.
W ARNING! • Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is running. Before exiting a vehicle, always apply the parking brake, shift the transmission into P ARK, and turn the engine OFF .
W ARNING! (Continued) • Children should be warned not to touch the park- ing brake, brake pedal or the shift lever . Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or in a location accessible to children), and do not leave Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN position.
T o select a gear range, press the lock button on the shift lever and move the lever rearward or forward. Y ou must also press the brake pedal to shift the transmission out of P ARK (refer to “Brake/T ransmission Shift Interlock Sys- tem” in this section).
Optional Shifter W ith AutoStick 威 The optional shift lever (with AutoStick 威 shift paddles mounted on the steering wheel) provides P ARK, RE- VERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE, and SPORT shift positions. Once in the DRIVE range, tapping the shift lever r ear- ward will toggle between SPOR T mode and DRIVE mode.
T o shift back into NEUTRAL from DRIVE, firmly pr ess the brake pedal, press the lock button on the shift lever , then push the shift lever forwar d and release.
If there is a need to restart the engine, be sure to cycle the ignition to the LOCK/OFF position before restarting. T ransmission gear engagement may be delayed after restarting the engine if the key is not cycled to the LOCK/OFF position first.
W ARNING! (Continued) • It is dangerous to shift out of P ARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward or in re- verse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
CAUTION! • Before moving the shift lever out of P ARK, you must turn the ignition switch from the OFF posi- tion to the ON/RUN position, and also press the brake pedal. Otherwise, damage to the shift lever could result. • DO NOT race the engine when shifting from P ARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range, as this can damage the drivetrain.
W ARNING! Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn off the ignition to coast down a hill. These are unsafe practices that limit your response to changing traffic or road conditions.
vehicle speed. Normal operation will resume once the transmission temperature has risen to a suitable level. SPOR T – If Equipped This mode alters the transmission’s automatic shift schedule for sportier driving. Upshift speeds are increased to make full use of available engine power .
3. T urn the engine OFF . 4. W ait approximately 30 seconds. 5. Restart the engine. 6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the problem is no longer detected, the transmission will r eturn to normal operation. NOTE: Even if the transmission can be reset, we recom- mend that you visit your authorized dealer at your earliest possible convenience.
The transmission shift lever has only P ARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, and DRIVE shift positions. Manual shifts can be made using the “AutoStick 威 ” shift control (refer to “AutoStick 威 ” in this section).
T ransmission gear engagement may be delayed after restarting the engine if the key is not cycled to the LOCK/OFF position first. NOTE: After selecting any gear range, wait a moment to allow the selected gear to engage before accelerating. This is especially important when the engine is cold.
W ARNING! (Continued) • It is dangerous to shift out of P ARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward or in re- verse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
CAUTION! • Before moving the shift lever out of P ARK, you must turn the ignition switch from the OFF posi- tion to the ON/RUN position, and also press the brake pedal. Otherwise, damage to the shift lever could result. • DO NOT race the engine when shifting from P ARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range, as this can damage the drivetrain.
W ARNING! Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn off the ignition to coast down a hill. These are unsafe practices that limit your response to changing traffic or road conditions.
SPOR T - IF EQUIPPED This mode alters the transmission’s automatic shift schedule for sportier driving. Upshift speeds are in- creased to make full use of available engine power . T o toggle between DRIVE and SPOR T modes, touch the SPOR T button (on the Controls screen in the center touch panel).

gear , while using (+) to enter AutoStick 威 mode will r etain the current gear . When AutoStick 威 is active, the current transmission gear is displayed in the instrument cluster .
W ARNING! Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a slippery surface. The drive wheels could lose their grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or personal injury .
• The transmission will automatically downshift as the vehicle slows down (to prevent engine lugging) and will display the current gear . • The transmission will automatically downshift to first gear when coming to a stop. After a stop, the driver should manually upshift (+) the transmission as the vehicle is accelerated.
T o maximize fuel economy , your A WD vehicle automati- cally defaults to rear -wheel drive (R WD) when road and environmental conditions are such that wheel slip is unlikely to occur . When specific road and environmental conditions r equire incr eased levels of r oad traction, the vehicle automatically shifts into A WD mode.
DRIVING ON SLIPPER Y SURF ACES Acceleration Rapid acceleration on snow covered, wet, or other slip- pery surfaces may cause the driving wheels to pull erratically to the right or left. This phenomenon occurs when there is a difference in the surface traction under the rear (driving) wheels.
DRIVING THROUGH W A TER Driving through water more than a few inches/ centimeters deep will requir e extra caution to ensure safety and prevent damage to your vehicle. Flowing/Rising Water W ARNING! Do not drive on or across a road or path where water is flowing and/or rising (as in storm run-off).
CAUTION! (Continued) • Driving through standing water may cause damage to your vehicle’ s drivetrain components. Always inspect your vehicle’ s fluids (i.e., engine oil, trans- mission, axle, etc.) for signs of contamination (i.e., fluid that is milky or foamy in appearance) after driving through standing water .
POWER STEERING Y our vehicle is equipped with an electro-hydraulic power steering system that will give you good vehicle response and increased ease of maneuverability in tight spaces. The system will vary its assist to provide light efforts while parking and good feel while driving.
NOTE: • Even if power steering assistance is no longer opera- tional, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. Under these conditions there will be a substantial increase in steering effort, especially at very low vehicle speeds and during parking maneuvers.
When the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch in the ON position, the “Brake W arning Light” in the instrument cluster will illuminate. NOTE: • When the parking brake is applied and the transmis- sion is placed in gear , the “Brake W arning Light” will flash.
W ARNING! • Never use the P ARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle move- ment and possible injury or damage. • When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key fob from the ignition and lock your vehicle.
CAUTION! If the “Brake W arning Light” remains on with the parking brake released, a brake system malfunction is indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an authorized dealer immediately . ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) provides increased vehicle stability and brake performance under most braking conditions.
These are all normal characteristics of ABS. W ARNING! • The ABS contains sophisticated electronic equip- ment that may be susceptible to interference caused by improperly installed or high output radio transmitting equipment. This interference can cause possible loss of anti-lock braking capa- bility .
ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM Y our vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic brake control system that include Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), T raction Contr ol System (TCS), Brake Assist System (BAS), and the Electronic Stability Control (ESC).
Brake Assist System (BAS) This system complements the ABS by optimizing the vehicle braking capability during emergency brake ma- neuvers. This system detects an emergency braking situ- ation by sensing the rate and amount of brake application and then applies optimum pressure to the brakes.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) This system enhances directional control and stability of the vehicle under various driving conditions. The ESC corrects for oversteering and understeering the vehicle by applying the brake of the appropriate wheel.
The “ESC Of f” switch is located on the switch bank in the center of the instrument panel. T o enter the “Partial Off” mode, momentarily press the “ESC Off” switch and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” will illu- minate.
brake pedal. If the driver does not apply the thr ottle during this short period of time, the system will release brake pr essure and the vehicle will roll down the hill. The system will release brake pressure in proportion to the amount of throttle applied as the vehicle starts to move in the intended direction of travel.
W ARNING! • If you use a trailer brake controller with your trailer , your trailer brakes may be activated and deactivated with the brake switch. If so, when the brake pedal is released, there may not be enough brake pressure to hold the vehicle and trailer on a hill and this could cause a collision with another vehicle or object behind you.
It anticipates when an emergency braking situation may occur by monitoring how fast the throttle is released by the driver . When the throttle is released very quickly , Ready Alert Braking applies a small amount of brake pressur e. This brake pressure will not be noticed by the driver .
The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” also flashes when TCS is active. If the “ESC Activation/ Malfunction Indicator Light” begins to flash during ac- celeration, ease up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions.
TIRE SAFETY INFORMA TION Tire Markings NOTE: • P (Passenger) - Metric tire sizing is based on U.S. design standards. P-Metric tires have the letter “P” molded into the sidewall preceding the size designa- tion. Example: P215/65R15 95H. • European-Metric tire sizing is based on European design standards.
compact spare tires have the letter “T” or “S” molded into the sidewall preceding the size designation. Ex- ample: T145/80D18 103M. • High flotation tire sizing is based on U.S. design standards and it begins with the tire diameter molded into the sidewall.
EXAMPLE: Service Description: 95 = Load Index — A numerical code associated with the maximum load a tire can carry H = Speed Symbol — A symbol indicating the range of speeds at which a tire can ca.
Tire Identification Number (TIN) The TIN may be found on one or both sides of the tire, however , the date code may only be on one side. T ires with white sidewalls will have the full TIN, including the date code, located on the white sidewall side of the tire.
Tire T erminology And Definitions T erm Definition B-Pillar The vehicle B-Pillar is the structural member of the body located behind the front door . Cold T ire Inflation Pressure Cold tire inflation pressure is defined as the tire pressur e after the vehicle has not been driven for at least 3 hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.

412 ST ARTING AND OPERA TING.
W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Unequal tire pressures from one side of the vehicle 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 pressures can cause uneven wear pat- terns to develop across the tire 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 the valve stem. Inflation pressures specified on the placard are always “cold tire inflation pressure.
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 tire inflation pressur e is very important.
the tire sidewall. Use all season tires only in sets of four; failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your vehicle. Summer Or Three Season Tires – If Equipped Summer tires provide traction in both wet and dry conditions, and are not intended to be driven in snow or on ice.
Spare Tire Matching Original Equipped Tire And Wheel – If Equipped Y our vehicle may be equipped with a spare tir e and wheel equivalent in look and function to the original equipment tire and wheel found on the front or rear axle of your vehicle. This spar e tir e may be used in the tire rotation for your vehicle.
Since this tire has limited tr ead life the original equip- ment tire should be repaired (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 spare wheel, since the wheel is designed specifically for the compact spare tire.
tire affects vehicle handling. Since it is not the same as your original equipment tire, replace (or repair) the original equipment tire and reinstall 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 Wear Indicators T read wear indicators are 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 tread 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 a 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, the Security Chain Company (SCC) Super Z6 low profile traction device or equiva- lent is recommended on P215/65R17, P225/60R18 or P235/55R18 tires. • For an All Wheel Drive vehicle, P235/55R19 tire with the use of a traction device that meets the SAE type “Class S” specification is recommended.
CAUTION! (Continued) • Observe the traction device manufacturer ’ s instruc- tions 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).
The suggested rotation method is the “forward cross” shown in the following diagram. This rotation pattern does not apply to some directional tires that must not be reversed.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressure if the tire pressur e falls below the low-pressur e warning limit for any reason, including low temperatur e effects and natural pressur e loss through the tire.
CAUTION! • The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system op- eration or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
• Seasonal temperature changes will affect tir e pressur e, and the TPMS will monitor the actual tire pressur e in the tire. Base System The T ire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) uses wireless technology with wheel rim mounted electr onic sensors to monitor tire pressur e levels.
automatically update and the TPM T elltale Light and ⬙ LOW TIRE ⬙ message will turn of f. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information.
V ehicles W ith Compact Spare 1. The compact spare tire does not have a TPM sensor . Therefor e, the TPMS will not monitor the pressure in the compact spare tire.
The TPMS consists of the following components: • Receiver module, • Four TPM sensors, • V arious TPMS messages, which display in the Elec- tronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC), and • TPM T elltale Light The matching full size spare wheel and tire assembly (if equipped) has a TPM sensor .
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in or der for the TPMS to receive this information. Service TPMS W arning If a system fault is detected, the TPM T elltale Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain on solid.
message is then followed with a graphic display with pressur e values still shown. This indicates that the pres- sure values are still being received from the TPM sensors but they may not be located in the correct vehicle position. The system still needs to be serviced as long as the ⬙ SER VICE TPM SYSTEM ⬙ message is displayed.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h), the TPM T elltale Light will flash on and of f for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. In addition, the EVIC will display a ⬙ SER VICE TPM SYSTEM ⬙ message for a minimum of five seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressur e value.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS 3.6L Engine – If Equipped This engine is designed to meet all emis- sions regulations and provide 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 r eferred to as “Reformulated Gasoline.” Reformulated gasolines contain oxygenates and are spe- cifically blended to r educe vehicle emissions and im- prove air quality .
If a Non-FFV vehicle is inadvertently fueled with E-85 fuel, the engine will have some or all of these symptoms: • operate in a lean mode • OBD II “Malfunction Indicator Light” on • poor eng.
Materials Added T o Fuel All gasoline sold in the United States is required 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. Therefore, you should not have to add anything to the fuel.
NOTE: Intentional tampering with the emissions control system can result in civil penalties being assessed against you. 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.
FLEXIBLE FUEL (3.6L ENGINE ONL Y) — IF EQUIPPED E-85 General Information The information in this section is for Flexible Fuel ve- hicles only . These vehicles can be identified by a unique fuel filler door label that states Ethanol (E-85) or Un- leaded Gasoline Only .
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. Do not use E-85 as a cleaning agent and never use it near an open flame.
• Some additives used in regular gasoline are not fully compatible with E-85 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) ar e designed to be compatible with ethanol. Always be sure that your vehicle is serviced with corr ect ethanol com- patible parts. CAUTION! Replacing fuel system components with non-ethanol compatible components can damage your vehicle.
3. There is no fuel filler cap. A flapper door inside the pipe seals the system. 4. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler pipe – the nozzle opens and holds the flapper door while refueling. NOTE: Only the correct size nozzle opens the latches allowing the flapper door to open.
NOTE: A funnel is provided (located in the trunk in the spare tire area) to open the flapper door to allow for emergency refueling with a gas can. CAUTION! T o avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top off” the fuel tank after filling.
Emergency Fuel Filler Door Release If you are unable to open the fuel filler door , use the fuel filler door emergency release. 1. Open the trunk. 2. Remove the access cover (located on the left side inner trim panel).
Do not exceed the specified Gross V ehicle W eight Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle W eight Rating (GA WR). V ehicle Certification Label Y our vehicle has a V ehicle Certification Label affixed to the rear of the driver’s door .
W ARNING! Because the front wheels steer the vehicle, it is important that you do not exceed the maximum front or rear GA WR. A dangerous driving condition can result if either rating is exceeded. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and have a collision.
NOTE: • Refer to the “V ehicle Certification Label” affixed to the rear of the driver’s door for your vehicle’s GVWR and GA WRs. • Refer to the “T ire Placard” for your vehicle’s proper tire pressur e.
measure GTW is to put your fully loaded trailer on a vehicle scale. The entire weight of the trailer must be supported by the scale. Gross Combination W eight Rating (GCWR) The GCWR is the total permissible weight of your vehicle and trailer when weighed in combination.
T railer Sway Control The trailer sway control is a telescoping link that can be installed between the hitch r eceiver and the trailer tongue that typically pr ovides adjustable friction associated with the telescoping motion to dampen any unwanted trailer swaying motions while traveling.
W ARNING! • An improperly adjusted W eight Distributing Hitch system may reduce handling, stability , braking performance, and could result in a collision.
T railer T owing Weights (Maximum T railer Weight Ratings) The following chart provides the maximum trailer weight ratings towable for your given drivetrain. Engine/T ransmission Frontal Area Max. GTW (Gross T railer W eight) Max. T ongue W eight (See Note) 3.
Consider the following items when computing the weight on the rear axle of the vehicle: • The tongue weight of the trailer . • The weight of any other type of car go or equipment put in or on your vehicle. • The weight of the driver and all passengers.
CAUTION! (Continued) • Then, during the first 500 miles (805 km) that a trailer is towed, do not drive over 50 mph (80 km/h) and do not make starts at full throttle. This helps the engine and other parts of the vehicle wear in at the heavier loads. W ARNING! Improper towing can lead to an injury collision.
W ARNING! (Continued) • V ehicles with trailers should not be parked on a grade. When parking, apply the parking brake on the tow vehicle. Put the tow vehicle automatic transmission in P ARK. Always, block or ⴖ chock ⴖ the trailer wheels. • GCWR must not be exceeded.
– Check the trailer tires for proper tir e inflation pr essures before trailer usage. – Check for signs of tire wear or visible tire damage before towing a trailer . Refer to “T ires – General Information” in “Starting and Operating” for informa- tion on tread wear indicators and for the proper inspection procedure.
CAUTION! If the trailer weighs more than 1,000 lbs (454 kg) loaded, it should have its own brakes and they should be of adequate capacity . Failure to do this could lead to accelerated brake lining wear , higher brake pedal effort, and longer stopping distances.
The electrical connections are all complete to the vehicle but you must mate the harness to a trailer connector . Refer to the following illustrations.
T owing Tips Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping, and backing up the trailer in an area located away from heavy traffic. Automatic T ransmission The DRIVE range can be selected when towing. The trans- mission controls include an adaptive drive strategy to avoid frequent shifting when towing.
– T o prevent excess heat generation, avoid continuous driving at high RPM. Reduce vehicle speed as neces- sary to avoid extended driving at high RPM.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES The pages that follow contain the required maintenance services determined by the engineers who designed your vehicle. Besides those maintenance items specified in the fixed maintenance schedule, there are other components which may require servicing or replacement in the future.
Engine Oil Checking Oil Level – 3.6L Engine T o assure proper engine lubrication, the engine oil must be maintained at the correct level. Check the oil level at regular intervals, such as every fuel stop. The best time to check the engine oil level is about five minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off.
Change Engine Oil The oil change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance. Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for further informa- tion. NOTE:Under no circumstances should oil change inter- vals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or twelve months, whichever occurs first.
Engine Oil V iscosity – 3.6L Engine SAE 5W -20 engine oil is recommended for all operating temperatures. This engine oil improves low temperature starting and vehicle fuel economy . The engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended engine oil viscosity for your engine.
Disposing Of Used Engine Oil And Oil Filters Care should be taken in disposing of used engine oil and oil filters from your vehicle. Used oil and oil filters, indiscriminately discarded, can present a problem to the environment.
Engine Air Cleaner Filter Selection The quality of replacement engine air cleaner filters varies considerably . Only high quality filters should be used to assure most efficient service. MOP AR 威 engine air cleaner filters are a high quality filter and are recom- mended.
W ARNING! • Battery fluid is a corrosive acid solution and can burn or even blind you. Do not allow battery fluid to contact your eyes, skin, or clothing. Do not lean over a battery when attaching clamps. If acid splashes in eyes or on skin, flush the area imme- diately with large amounts of water .
Air Conditioner Maintenance For best possible performance, your air conditioner should be checked and serviced by an authorized dealer at the start of each warm season. This service should include cleaning of the condenser fins and a performance test.
Refrigerant Recovery And Recycling R-134a Air Conditioning Refrigerant is a hydrofluoro- carbon (HFC) that is endorsed by the Environmental Protection Agency and is an ozone-saving product.
3. Remove the used filter . 4. Install the new filter with arrows pointing in the direction of airflow , which is toward the r ear of the vehicle (text and arr ows on the filter will indicate this). 5. Close the filter access cover . Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals.
Body Lubrication Locks and all body pivot points, including such items as seat tracks, door hinge pivot points and rollers, liftgate, tailgate, sliding doors and hood hinges, should be lubri- cated periodically with a lithium based grease, such as MOP AR 威 Spray White Lube to assure quiet, easy opera- tion and to protect against rust and wear .
Adding Washer Fluid The windshield washer fluid r eservoir is located in the front of the engine compartment. Be sure to check the fluid level at r egular intervals. Fill the reservoir with windshield washer solvent (not radiator antifreeze) and operate the system for a few seconds to flush out the residual water .
have an authorized technician inspect the complete ex- haust system and adjacent body areas for broken, dam- aged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts. Open seams or loose connections could permit exhaust fumes to seep into the passenger compartment.
CAUTION! (Continued) • Damage to the catalytic converter can result if your vehicle is not kept in proper operating condition. In the event of engine malfunction, particularly involving engine misfire or other apparent loss of performance, have your vehicle serviced promptly .
Cooling System W ARNING! • When working near the radiator cooling fan, disconnect the fan motor lead or turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position. The fan is tempera- ture controlled and can start at any time the igni- tion switch is in the ON position.
If the cap is sealing properly , the engine coolant (anti- freeze) will begin to drain from the coolant recovery bottle. DO NOT REMOVE THE COOLANT PRESSURE CAP WHEN THE COOLING SYSTEM IS HOT .
CAUTION! (Continued) • Do not use water alone or alcohol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) products. Do not use additional rust inhibitors or antirust products, as they may not be compatible with the radiator engine coolant and may plug the radiator .
Please note that it is the owner’s responsibility to main- tain the proper level of protection against freezing ac- cording to the temperatures occurring in the area where the vehicle is operated. NOTE: Mixing engine coolant (antifreeze) types is not recommended and can result in cooling system damage.
Disposal Of Used Engine Coolant Used ethylene glycol-based engine coolant (antifreeze) is a regulated substance requiring proper disposal. Check with your local authorities to determine the disposal rules for your community .
If an examination of your engine compartment shows no evidence of radiator or hose leaks, the vehicle may be safely driven. The vapor will soon dissipate. • Do not overfill the coolant expansion bottle. • Check the coolant freeze point in the radiator and in the coolant expansion bottle.
W ARNING! Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure and possibly a collision. Driving with your foot resting or riding on the brake pedal can result in abnormally high brake temperatures, excessive lining wear , and possible brake damage. Y ou would not have your full braking capacity in an emergency .
W ARNING! • Use only manufacturer’s recommended brake fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining Y our V ehicle” for further information. Using the wrong type of brake fluid can severely damage your brake system and/or impair its performance.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not allow petroleum based fluid to contaminate the brake fluid. Brake seal components could be damaged, causing partial or complete brake failure. This could result in a collision. Use only brake fluid that has been in a tightly closed container to avoid contamination from foreign matter or moisture.
Automatic T ransmission Fluid (A TF) is an engineered product and its performance may be impair ed by supple- mental additives. Therefor e, do not add any fluid addi- tives to the transmission. The only exception to this policy is the use of special dyes for diagnosing fluid leaks.
In addition, change the fluid and filter if the transmission is disassembled for any reason. All Wheel Drive (A WD) – If Equipped The all wheel drive system consists of a transfer case and front differential. The exterior surface of these compo- nents should be inspected for evidence of fluid leaks.
Change Axle Fluid Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals. Appearance Care And Protection From Corrosion Protection Of Body And Paint From Corrosion V ehicle body care requir ements vary according to geo- graphic locations and usage.
W ashing • W ash your vehicle regularly . Always wash your ve- hicle in the shade using MOP AR 威 Car W ash, or a mild car wash soap, and rinse the panels completely with clear water . • If insects, tar , or other similar deposits have accumu- lated on your vehicle, use MOP AR 威 Super Kleen Bug and T ar Remover to remove.
• If you detect any stone chips or scratches in the paint, touch them up immediately . The cost of such repairs is considered the responsibility of the owner . • If your vehicle is damaged due to a collision or similar cause that destr oys the paint and pr otective coating, have your vehicle repair ed as soon as possible.
Stain Repel Fabric Cleaning Procedure – If Equipped Stain Repel seats may be cleaned in the following manner: • Remove as much of the stain as possible by blotting with a clean, dry towel.
W ARNING! Do not use volatile solvents for cleaning purposes. Many are potentially flammable, and if used in closed areas they may cause respiratory harm. Cleaning Headlights Y our vehicle is equipped with plastic headlights and fog lights (if equipped) that are lighter and less susceptible to stone breakage than glass headlights.
