NOTE: The ignition key that is used to start the vehicle is used to lock or unlock the doors, swing gate, and console storage. W ARNING! • For personal security reasons and safety in an accident, lock the vehicle doors when you drive, as well as when you park and leave the vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Never leave children alone in a vehicle. Leaving unattended children in a vehicle is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Do not leave the key in the ignition. A child could operate power win- dows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
NOTE: Use the “Automatic Unlock Doors On Exit” feature in accor dance with local laws. Automatic Door Locks The doors will lock automatically on vehicles with power door locks if all of the following conditions are met: 1. The “Automatic Door Locks” feature is enabled.
WINDOWS Power Windows — If Equipped The power window switches are located on the instr u- ment panel center stack (below the radio). The top left switch controls the left fr ont window and the top right switch controls the right fr ont window .
Auto-Down Both the driver and front passenger window switches have an “Auto-Down” feature. Pr ess the window switch past the first detent, release, and the window will go down automatically . T o cancel the Auto-Down move- ment, operate the switch in either the up or down direction and r elease the switch.
Wind Buffeting W ind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressur e on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the ears. Y our vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows down in certain open or partially open posi- tions. This is a normal occurrence and can be minimized by adjusting window opening.
CAUTION! Do not press on rear wiper blade when closing the rear flip-up window , as damage to the blade will result. W ARNING! Driving with the flip-up window open can allow poisonous exhaust gases into your vehicle. Y ou and your passengers could be injured by these fumes.
If you will be carrying children too small for adult-sized seat belts, the seat belts or the Lower Anchors and T ether for CHildren (LA TCH) feature also can be used to hold infant and child restraint systems. For mor e information on LA TCH, see Lower Anchors and T ether for CHildren (LA TCH).
ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle. Everyone in a motor vehicle should be belted at all times. Lap/Shoulder Belts All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with lap/shoulder belts. The belt webbing retractor is de- signed to lock during very sudden stops or collisions.
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 shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision. Y ou are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap and shoulder belt are meant to be used together .
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 cannot do its job as well.
Rear Center Lap/Shoulder Belt Retractor Lockout (Four-Door Models Only) This feature is designed to lock the r etractor whenever the 60% rear seatback is not fully latched. This pr events someone from wearing the r ear center lap/shoulder belt when the rear seatback is not fully latched.
W ARNING! Position the shoulder belt height adjusters so that the belt rests across the middle of your shoulder . Failure to adjust the safety belt properly could reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and increase the risk of injury in a collision.
Automatic Locking Retractors (ALR) Mode — If Equipped In this mode, the shoulder belt is automatically pre- locked. The belt will still retract to r emove any slack in the shoulder belt. The Automatic Locking Mode is avail- able on all passenger-seating positions with a combina- tion lap/shoulder belt.
Left Center Right First Row ALR Second Row ALR ALR ALR Third Row If the passenger seating position is equipped with an ALR and is being used for normal usage: Only pull the belt webbing out far enough to comfortably wrap around the occupants mid-section so as to not activate the ALR.
(BeltAlert 威 ) will alert the driver or front passenger to buckle the seat belt. The driver should also instruct all other occupants to buckle their seat belts.
4. T urn the ignition key to the OFF position. A single chime will sound to signify that you have successfully completed the programming. BeltAlert 威 can be reactivated by r epeating this procedur e.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) — Airbags This vehicle has Advanced Front Airbags for both the driver and right front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver’s Advanced Front Airbag is mounted in the steering wheel.
The Advanced Front Airbags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the airbag to have differ ent rates of inflation that are based on the severity and type of collision.
W ARNING! • No objects should be placed over or near the airbag on the instrument panel, because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a collision severe enough to cause the airbag to inflate. • Do not put anything on or around the Advanced Front Airbag covers or attempt to manually open them.
The Advanced Front Airbags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the airbag to have differ ent rates of inflation that are based on the severity and type of collision. Along with the seat belts, Advanced Fr ont Airbags work with the instrument panel knee bolsters to provide impr oved protection for the driver and fr ont passenger .
3. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved back as far as practical to allow the Advanced Front Airbags room to inflate. 4. Do not lean against the door or window . If your vehicle has side airbags, and deployment occurs, the side airbags will inflate forcefully into the space between you and the door .
Airbag System Components Y our vehicle may be equipped with the following airbag system components: • Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) • Airbag W arning Light • Steering Wheel and Column • .
The Advanced Front Airbags will not deploy in all frontal collisions, including some that may produce substantial vehicle damage — for example, some pole collisions, truck underrides, and angle of fset collisions.
It also includes diagnostics that will illuminate the instrument cluster Airbag W arning Light if a malfunc- tion is noted that could affect the airbag system.
The ORC determines if a side collision requir es the side airbags to inflate based on the severity and type of collision. Based on the severity and type of collision, the side airbag inflator on the crash side of the vehicle is trig- gered, r eleasing a quantity of non-toxic gas.
NOTE: Front and/or side airbags will not deploy in all collisions. This does not mean something is wrong with the airbag system. If you do have a collision which deploys the airbags, any or all of the.
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.
vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to recor d such data as: • How various systems in your vehicle were .
Children 12 years and under should ride pr operly buck- led up in a rear seat, if available. According to crash statistics, children ar e safer when properly r estrained in the rear seats, rather than in the fr ont.
• The infant carrier is only used rearwar d-facing in the vehicle. It is recommended for childr en who weigh up to about 20 lbs (9 kg). “Convertible” child seats often have a higher weight limit.
Here ar e some tips for getting the most out of your child restraint: • Before buying any r estraint system, make sure that it has a label certifying that it meets all applicable Safety Standards. The manufactur er also recommends that you try a child restraint in the vehicle seats wher e you will use it before you buy it.
• Buckle the child into the restraint exactly as the manufacturer’s instr uctions tell you. • When your child restraint is not in use, secur e it in the vehicle with the seat belt or remove it fr om the vehicle. Do not leave it loose in the vehicle.
• Check belt fit periodically . A child’s squirming or slouching can move the belt out of position. • If the shoulder belt contacts the face or neck, move the child closer to the center of the vehicle. Never allow a child to put the shoulder belt under an arm or behind the back.
NOTE: If your child restraint seat is not LA TCH- compatible, install the restraint using the vehicle seat belts. W ARNING! An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor position directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
NOTE: When using the LA TCH attaching system to install a child restraint, please ensur e that all seat belts not being used for occupant restraints ar e stowed and out of reach of childr en. It is recommended that befor e installing the child restraint, buckle the seat belt so the seat belt is tucked behind the child restraint and out of reach.
Installing the LA TCH-Compatible Child Restraint System W e urge you to carefully follow the dir ections of the manufacturer when installing your child r estraint. Not all child restraint systems will be installed as described her e. Again, carefully follow the installation instr uctions that were pr ovided with the child restraint system.
In addition, there ar e tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located on the back of the seat. Latch Anchorages (Four-Door Models) T ether Strap Mounting (T wo-Door Models) 70 THIN.
Many , but not all restraint systems will be equipped with separate straps on each side, with each having a hook or connector for attachment to the lower anchorage and a means for adjusting the tension of the strap.
W ARNING! Improper installation of a child restraint to the LA TCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint.
2. Finally , pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child r estraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally , and pull it tight if necessary .
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 behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDA TIONS A long break-in period is not r equired for the engine and drivetrain (transmission and axle) in your vehicle. Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km), speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts. • Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly . Exhaust Gas W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill.
damaged, have a competent mechanic inspect the com- plete exhaust system and adjacent body areas for br oken, damaged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts. Open seams or loose connections could permit exhaust fumes to seep into the passenger compartment.
they cannot slip out of position and interfere with the pedals or impair safe operation of your vehicle in other ways. 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.
W ARNING! (Continued) Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or mounting can cause interference with the brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation causing loss of control of the vehicle. Periodic Safety Checks Y ou Should Make Outside the V ehicle T ires Examine tires for excessive tr ead wear and uneven wear patterns.

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts. W ARNING! Never leave children in the vehicle alone. Leaving unintended children in a vehicle is dangerous for a number of reasons.
T urn the ignition switch to the ST ART position and release when the engine starts. If the engine fails to start within 10 seconds, turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position, wait 10 to 15 seconds, then repeat the “Normal Starting” procedur e.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started. V ehicles equipped with an automatic transmission cannot be started this way . Unburned fuel could enter the catalytic converter and, once the engine has started, ignite and damage the converter and vehicle.
If the engine has been flooded, it may start to run, but not have enough power to continue running when the key is released. If this occurs, continue cranking with the accel- erator pedal pushed all the way to the floor . Release the accelerator pedal and the key once the engine is running smoothly .
ENGINE BLOCK HEA TER — IF EQUIPPED The engine block heater warms the engine, and permits quicker starts in cold weather . Connect the cord to a standard 1 10-1 15 V olt AC electrical outlet with a grounded, thr ee-wire extension cor d. The engine block heater cord is found under the hood bundled in fr ont of the battery tray .
NOTE: During cold weather , you may experience in- creased ef fort in shifting until the transmission fluid warms up. This is normal. Shifting Fully press the clutch pedal befor e shifting gears. As you release the clutch pedal, lightly pr ess the accelerator pedal.
Manual T ransmission Shift Speeds in MPH (KM/H) En- gine Speeds 1 to 2 2 to 3 3 to 4 4 to 5 5 to 6 3.8L Accel. 15 (24) 24 (39) 34 (55) 47 (76) 56 (90) Cruise 10 (16) 19 (31) 27 (43) 37 (60) 41 (66) Downshifting Moving from a high gear down to a lower gear is recommended to pr eserve brakes when driving down steep hills.
Maximum Recommended Downshift Speeds CAUTION! Failure to follow the maximum recommended down- shifting speeds may cause the engine to overspeed and/or damage the clutch disc, even if the clutch pedal is pressed.
AUTOMA TIC TRANSMISSION — IF EQUIPPED CAUTION! Damage to the transmission may occur if the follow- ing precautions are not observed: • Shift into P ARK only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. • Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop and the engine is at idle speed.
Brake/T ransmission Interlock System This vehicle is equipped with a Brake T ransmission Shift Interlock System (BTSI) that holds the shift lever in the P ARK position when the ignition switch is in the LOCK position.
6. Press the shifter release button and shift into NEU- TRAL. 7. The vehicle may then be started in NEUTRAL. Have your vehicle inspected by your local authorized dealer if the shift lock manual override has been used.
Gear Ranges NOTE: Under extreme cold temperatur es (-10°F (-23°C) and when in DRIVE, transmission operation may be briefly limited to only second gear operation. Normal operation will resume once the transmission temperatur e has risen to a suitable level.
NEUTRAL This range is used when vehicle is standing for pro- longed periods with engine running. Engine may be started in this range. Set the parking brake if you must leave the vehicle. NOTE: T owing, coasting, or driving the vehicle for any other reason with the shift lever in NEUTRAL can result in severe transmission damage.
Overdrive can be locked out by pr essing the O/D OFF switch located on the center console. The “O/D OFF Indicator Light” (on the switch) will illuminate to show that the switch has been activated. When the indicator light is on, Overdrive is locked out.
CAUTION! • Before moving the shift lever out of P ARK, you must turn the ignition from LOCK so the steering wheel and shift lever are released. Otherwise, damage to the steering column or shift lever could result.
• 4L (Four-wheel drive low range) The transfer case is intended to be driven in the 2H position for normal street and highway conditions such as hard-surfaced r oads.
NOTE: Do not attempt to shift when only the front or rear wheels ar e spinning. The transfer case is not equipped with a synchronizer , and the front and rear driveshaft speeds must be equal for a shift to take place. Shifting while only the front or r ear wheels are spinning can cause damage to the transfer case.
4H Position This range locks the front and r ear driveshafts together , forcing the fr ont and rear wheels to r otate at the same speed. This range (4H) provides additional traction for loose, slippery road surfaces and should not be used on wet or dry pavement.
4H to 4L or 4L to 4H W ith the vehicle rolling at 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h), shift an automatic transmission into NEUTRAL (N), or press the clutch pedal on a manual transmission. While the vehicle is coasting at 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h), shift the transfer case lever firmly to the desired position.
T rac-Lok 威 is especially helpful during slippery driving conditions. W ith both rear wheels on a slippery surface, a slight application of the accelerator will supply maxi- mum traction. W ARNING! On vehicles equipped with a limited-slip differen- tial, never run the engine with one rear wheel off the ground.
T o activate the system, press the bottom of the AXLE LOCK switch once to lock the rear axle only (the “Rear Axle Lock Indicator Light” will illuminate), press the bottom of the switch again to lock the front axle (the “Front Axle Lock Indicator Light” will illuminate).
The rear axle lock will disengage if the vehicle is taken out of 4L (Low) range, or the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position. ELECTRONIC SW A Y BAR DISCONNECT — IF EQUIPPED Y our vehicle may be equipped with an electronic discon- necting stabilizer/sway bar .
when activation conditions are not met. The stabilizer/ sway bar should remain in on-r oad mode during normal driving conditions. W ARNING! Do not disconnect the stabilizer bar and drive on hard-surfaced roads or at speeds above 18 mph (29 km/h); you may lose control of the vehicle, which could result in serious injury .
W ARNING! If the stabilizer/sway bar will not return to on-road mode, vehicle stability is greatly reduced. Do not attempt to drive the vehicle over 18 mph (29 km/h). Driving faster than 18 mph (29 km/h) may cause loss of control of the vehicle, which could result in serious injury .
1. Remove the two nuts from the bodyside. 2. Remove one bolt from the underside of the vehicle. 3. Remove the side step assembly . 5 ST ARTING AND OPERA TING 355.
The Basics of Off-Road Driving Y ou will encounter many types of terrain driving off- road. Y ou should be familiar with the terrain and area before pr oceeding. There ar e many types of surface conditions: hard-packed dirt, gravel, r ocks, grass, sand, mud, snow and ice.
is needed. V ehicle speeds in excess of 25 mph (40 km/h) should be avoided when in 4L (Low) range. Simultaneous Brake and Throttle Operation Many off-r oad driving conditions requir e the simulta- neous use of the brake and throttle (two-footed driving).
previous vehicles getting stuck. As a good practice before entering any mud hole, get out and determine how deep it is, if there ar e any hidden obstacles and if the vehicle can be safely recover ed if stuck. Sand Soft sand is very difficult to travel thr ough with full tire pressur e.
W ARNING! Crossing obstacles can cause abrupt steering system loading which could cause you to loose control of your vehicle. Using a Spotter There ar e many times where it is har d to see the obstacle or determine the correct path. Determining the corr ect path can be extremely dif ficult when you are confr onting many obstacles.
enough to put the vehicle at risk of a rollover . If you get caught in a rut, dig a small tr ench to the right or left at a 45-degree angle ahead of the fr ont tires. Use the r emoved dirt to fill the rut ahead of the turnout you just cr eated. Y ou should now be able to drive out following the trench you just created at a 45-degr ee angle.
CAUTION! W inching or rocking the vehicle off hard objects increases the risk of underbody damage. Hill Climbing Hill climbing requir es good judgment and a good under- standing of your abilities and your vehicle’s limitations. Hills can cause serious problems.
provide a fr esh ⬙ bite ⬙ into the surface and will usually provide enough traction to complete the climb. If you do not make it to the top, place the vehicle in REVERSE and back straight down the grade using engine resistance along with the vehicle brakes.
W ARNING! Driving across an incline increases the risk of a rollover , which may result in severe injury . If Y ou Stall or Begin to Lose Headway If you stall or begin to lose headway while climbing a steep hill, allow your vehicle to come to a stop and immediately apply the brake.

muddy waters; check for hidden obstacles. Make sure you will not be intruding on any wildlife, and you can recover the vehicle if necessary . The key to a safe crossing is the water depth, current and bottom conditions. On soft bottoms, the vehicle will sink in, effectively incr easing the water level on the vehicle.
the slowest current can push the heaviest vehicle down- stream and out of contr ol if the water is deep enough to push on the large surface ar ea of the vehicle’s body . Before you pr oceed, determine the speed of the current, the water’s depth, approach angle, bottom condition and if there ar e any obstacles.
• After extended operation in mud, sand, water , or similar dirty conditions, have the radiator , fan, brake rotors, wheels, brake linings, and axle yokes inspected and cleaned as soon as possible. W ARNING! Abrasive material in any part of the brakes may cause excessive wear or unpredictable braking.
system. This noise should be considered normal, and it does not in any way damage the steering system. W ARNING! Continued operation with reduced power steering assist could pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service should be obtained as soon as possible.
If necessary , add fluid to restore to the pr oper indicated level. W ith a clean cloth, wipe any spilled fluid from all surfaces. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining Y our V ehicle” for further information. P ARKING BRAKE Before leaving the vehicle, make sur e that the parking brake is fully applied.
NOTE: • When the parking brake is applied and the automatic transmission 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 an automatic transmission in P ARK, a manual transmission in REVERSE or first gear . Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury .
The Anti-Lock Brake System pump motor runs during the self-test, and during an ABS stop, to provide the regulated hydraulic pr essure. The motor pump makes a low humming noise during operation; this is normal. W ARNING! • Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will diminish their effectiveness and may lead to an accident.
NOTE: During severe braking conditions, a pulsing sensation may occur and a clicking noise will be heard. This is normal, indicating that the Anti-Lock Brake System is functioning.
T raction Control System (TCS) This system monitors the amount of wheel spin of each of the driven wheels. If wheel spin is detected, brake pressur e is applied to the slipping wheel(s) to provide enhanced acceleration and stability .
W ARNING! The Brake Assist System (BAS) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. The BAS cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro- planing.
HSA Activation Criteria The following criteria must be met in order for HSA to activate: • V ehicle must be stopped • V ehicle must be on an 8% or greater incline (3% for manual transmission equipped vehicles) • Gear selection matches vehicle uphill direction (i.
letting gravity act on the vehicle, as the HSA will prevent the vehicle from r olling. Instead, use the appropriate gear for moving in the desired dir ection. T owing with HSA HSA will pr ovide assistance when starting on a grade when pulling a trailer .
W ARNING! (Continued) • HSA is not a parking brake. If you stop the vehicle on a hill without putting the transmission in P ARK and using the parking brake, it will roll down the hill and could cause a collision with another vehicle or object.

396 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.
Economy Improper inflation pr essures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tir e tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce tr ead life resulting in a need for earlier tire r eplacement. Under-inflation also incr eases tire r olling resistance and r esults in higher fuel consumption.
T ire pressur e should be checked and adjusted as well as inspected for signs of tire wear or visible damage, at least once a month. Use a good quality pocket-type gauge to check tire pr essure. Do not make a visual judgement when determining proper inflation.
T ire pressur es change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air temperature change. Keep this in mind when checking tire pr essure inside a garage, especially in the W inter .
Radial-Ply Tires W ARNING! Combining radial ply tires with other types of tires on your vehicle will cause your vehicle to handle poorly . The instability could cause an accident. Al- ways use radial tires in sets of four . Never combine them with other types of tires.
T read Wear Indicators T read wear indicators are in the original equipment tir es 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 accident 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.
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.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS) The T ire Pressur e Monitoring System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pr essure based on the vehicle recommended cold placar d pressur e. The tire pr essure will vary with temperatur e by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12°F (6.
For example, your vehicle may have a recommended cold (parked for more than thr ee hours) air pressur e of 35 psi (241 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the measured tir e pressur e is 30 psi (207 kPa), a temperature dr op to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the tir e pressur e to approximately 26 psi (179 kPa).
NOTE: • The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tir e care and maintenance, nor to provide warning of a tir e failure or condition. • The TPMS should not be used as a tire pr essure gauge while adjusting your tire pr essure. • Driving on a significantly under-inflated tir e causes the tire to over heat and can lead to tire failur e.
• T ire Pressur e Monitoring T elltale Light A tire pr essure monitoring sensor is located in the spar e wheel if the vehicle is equipped with a matching full size spare wheel and tir e assembly . The matching full size spare tir e can be used in place of any of the four road tires.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM sensors. NOTE: • If your vehicle is equipped with a matching full-size spare wheel and tir e assembly , it has a tire pressur e monitoring sensor , and can be monitored by the T ire Pressur e Monitoring System (TPMS).
General Information This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and RSS 210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following conditions: • This device may not cause harmful interference. • This device must accept any interference r eceived, including interference that may cause undesir ed operation.
Over 40 auto manufacturer’s worldwide have issued and endorsed consistent gasoline specifications (the W orld- wide Fuel Charter , WWFC) to define fuel properties necessary to deliver enhanced emissions, performance, and durability for your vehicle.
E-85 Usage In Non-Flex Fuel V ehicles Non-FFV vehicles are compatible with gasoline contain- ing 10% ethanol (E10). Gasoline with higher ethanol content may void the vehicle’s warranty .
It is even more important to look for gasoline without MMT in Canada, because MMT can be used at levels higher than those allowed in the United States. MMT is prohibited in Federal and California- reformulated gasoline. Materials Added T o Fuel All gasoline sold in the United States is requir ed to contain effective deter gent additives.
CAUTION! (Continued) • The use of fuel additives which are now being sold as octane enhancers is not recommended. Most of these products contain high concentra- tions of methanol. Fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems resulting from the use of such fuels or additives is not the responsibility of the manufacturer .
W ARNING! (Continued) • Guard against carbon monoxide with proper maintenance. Have the exhaust system inspected every time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnor- mal conditions repaired promptly . Until repaired, drive with all side windows fully open.
CAUTION! • Damage to the fuel system or emission control system could result from using an improper fuel cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap could let impu- rities into the fuel system. Also, a poorly fitting aftermarket cap can cause the “Malfunction Indi- cator Light (MIL)” to illuminate, due to fuel vapors escaping from the system.
Loose Fuel Filler Cap Message After fuel has been added, the vehicle diagnostic system can determine if the fuel filler cap is possibly loose, improperly installed, or damaged. If the system detects a malfunction, the “gASCAP” message will display in the odometer display .
Payload The payload of a vehicle is defined as the allowable load weight a truck or any given vehicle can carry , including the weight of the driver , all passengers, options and cargo. Gross Axle W eight Rating (GA WR) The GA WR is the maximum permissible load on the front and rear axles.
Loading The actual total weight and the weight of the front and rear of your vehicle at the gr ound can best be determined by weighing it when it is loaded and ready for operation. The entire vehicle should first be weighed on a commer - cial scale to ensure that the GVWR has not been ex- ceeded.
T o maintain warranty coverage, follow the requirements and recommendations in this Owner’s Manual concern- ing vehicles used for trailer towing. Common T owing Definitions The following trailer tow.
W ARNING! 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 an accident. T railer T ongue W eight (TW) The trailer tongue weight is the downward for ce exerted on the hitch ball by the trailer .
W eight-Distributing Hitch A weight-distributing hitch system works by applying leverage through spring (load) bars. It is typically used for heavier loads, to distribute trailer tongue weight to the tow vehicle’s front axle and the trailer axle(s).
T railer Hitch Classification The following chart provides the industry standar d for the maximum trailer weight a given trailer hitch class can tow and should be used to assist you in selecting the correct trailer hitch for your intended towing condition.

Consider the following items when computing the weight on the rear axle of the vehicle: • The trailer tongue weight. • The weight of any other type of cargo or equipment put in or on your vehicle. • The weight of the driver and all passengers. NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle.
CAUTION! • Do not tow a trailer at all during the first 500 miles (805 km) the new vehicle is driven. The engine, axle or other parts could be damaged. • 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.
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. W ith a manual transmis- sion, shift the transmission into first gear .
− Check for signs of tire wear or visible tir e damage before towing a trailer . Refer to “T ires – General Information” in “Starting and Operating” for the proper inspection pr ocedure. − When replacing tir es, refer to “T ires – General Infor - mation” in “Starting and Operating” for proper tir e replacement pr ocedures.
W ARNING! • Do not connect trailer brakes to your vehicle’s hydraulic brake lines. It can overload your brake system and cause it to fail. Y ou might not have brakes when you need them and could have an accident. • T owing any trailer will increase your stopping distance.
T owing Tips Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping and backing the trailer in an area away fr om heavy traffic. If using a manual transmission vehicle for trailer towing, all starts must be in first gear to avoid excessive clutch slippage.
The automatic transmission fluid and filter should be changed if you REGULARL Y tow a trailer for more than 45 minutes of continuous operation. Refer to “Mainte- nance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals. NOTE: Check the automatic transmission fluid level before towing.
RECREA TIONAL TOWING (BEHIND MOTORHOME, ETC.) CAUTION! Front or rear wheel lifts should not be used. Internal damage to the transmission or transfer case will occur if a front or rear wheel lift is used when recreational towing. T wo-Wheel Drive Models Recreational towing is allowed ONL Y if the rear drive- shaft is removed.
Four-Wheel Drive Models NOTE: The transfer case must be shifted into N (Neu- tral), automatic transmission must be shifted into P ARK, and manual transmission must be placed in gear (not in NEUTRAL) for recr eational towing.
7. Release the brake pedal and ensure that there is no vehicle movement. 8. T urn the engine off and turn the ignition switch to the ACC position. 9. Shift the automatic transmission into P ARK. 10. Apply the parking brake. 1 1. Attach the vehicle to the tow vehicle with the tow bar .
3. Shift the transfer case lever into the desired position. 4. Start the engine. 5. Shift the automatic transmission into DRIVE or release the clutch on manual transmissions. NOTE: When shifting out of transfer case N (Neutral) on automatic transmission-equipped vehicles, turning the engine off may be r equired to avoid gear clash.

the message will appear the next time the vehicle is started. This might indicate a damaged cap. If the prob- lem is detected twice in a row , the system will turn on the MIL.
a. The MIL will flash for about 10 seconds and then return to being fully illuminated until you turn OFF the ignition or start the engine. This means that your vehicle’s OBD II system is not ready and you should not proceed to the I/M station.
NOTE: Intentional tampering with emissions control systems may void your warranty and could result in civil penalties being assessed against you. W ARNING! Y ou can be badly injured working on or around a motor vehicle. Only do service work for which you have the knowledge and the proper equipment.
CAUTION! (Continued) • Y our vehicle has been built with improved fluids that protect the performance and durability of your vehicle and also allow extended maintenance intervals. Do not use chemical flushes in these components as the chemicals can damage your engine, transmission, power steering or air condi- tioning.
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 “Maintenance Schedule” for further information. NOTE: Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 6,000 miles (10 000 km) or six months, whichever occurs first.
Engine Oil V iscosity (SAE Grade) SAE 5W -20 engine oil is recommended for all operating temperatures. This engine oil impr oves low temperature starting and vehicle fuel economy . The engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended engine oil viscosity for your engine.
Engine Oil Filter Selection All of the manufacturer’s engines have a full-flow type disposable oil filter . Use a filter of this type for replace- ment. The quality of replacement filters varies consider - ably . Only high quality filters should be used to assure most efficient service.
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 hydr ofluoro- carbon (HFC) that is endorsed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EP A) and is an ozone-saving product.

CAUTION! • The catalytic converter requires the use of un- leaded fuel only . Leaded gasoline will destroy the effectiveness of the catalyst as an emissions con- trol device and may seriously reduce engine per- formance and cause serious damage to the engine.
T o minimize the possibility of catalytic converter dam- age: • Do not shut off the engine or interr upt the ignition, when the transmission is in gear and the vehicle is in motion. • Do not try to start the engine by pushing or towing the vehicle.
garden hose vertically down the face of the A/C con- denser (if equipped) or the back of the radiator core. Check the engine cooling system hoses for brittle rubber , cracking, tears, cuts, and tightness of the connection at the coolant recovery bottle and radiator .
CAUTION! • Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than the specified HOA T engine coolant (antifreeze) may result in engine damage and may decrease corrosion protection.
Please review these r ecommendations for using Hybrid Organic Additive T echnology (HOA T) engine coolant (antifreeze). When adding engine coolant (antifr eeze): • The manufacturer r ecommends using MOP AR 威 Antifreeze/Coolant 5 Y ear/100,000 Mile Formula HOA T (Hybrid Organic Additive T echnology) or equivalent.
W ARNING! The warning words DO NOT OPEN HOT on the cooling system pressure cap are a safety precaution. Never add engine coolant (antifreeze) when the en- gine is overheated. Do not loosen or remove the cap to cool an overheated engine. Heat causes pressure to build up in the cooling system.
When additional engine coolant (antifreeze) is needed to maintain the proper level, it should be added to the coolant bottle. Do not overfill. Points to Remember NOTE: When the vehicle is stopped after a few miles/ kilometers of operation, you may observe vapor coming from the fr ont of the engine compartment.
• Do not change the thermostat for Summer or W inter operation. If replacement is ever necessary , install ONL Y the correct type thermostat. Other designs may result in unsatisfactory cooling performance, poor gas mileage, and increased emissions.
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 contami- nate the brake fluid. Brake seal components could be damaged, causing partial or complete brake failure.
T o properly check the automatic transmission fluid level, the following procedur e must be used: 1. Operate the engine at idle speed and normal operating temperature. 2. The vehicle must be on level ground. 3. Fully apply the parking brake. 4. Place the shift lever momentarily into each gear posi- tion ending with the shift lever in P ARK.
7. Check for leaks. Release the parking brake. NOTE: T o prevent dirt and water from entering the transmission after checking or replenishing fluid, make certain that the dipstick cap is properly r eseated.
Fluid Level Check Check the fluid level by removing the fill plug. The fluid level should be between the bottom of the fill hole and a point not more than 3/16 in (4.76 mm) below the bottom of the hole. Add fluid, if necessary , to maintain the proper level.
CAUTION! When replacing the plugs, do not overtighten them. Y ou could damage them and cause them to leak. Selection of Lubricant Use only manufacturer’s r ecommended fluid. Refer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in “Maintaining Y our V ehicle” for further information.
road surfaces on which the vehicle is operated, extr eme hot or cold weather and other extreme conditions will have an adverse effect on paint, metal trim, and under - body protection. The following maintenance recommendations will enable you to obtain maximum benefit from the corr osion resistance built into your vehicle.
• A void using abrasive compounds and power buffing that may diminish the gloss or thin out the paint finish. CAUTION! • Do not use abrasive or strong cleaning materials such as steel wool or scouring powder , which will scratch metal and painted surfaces.
• Use MOP AR 威 T ouch-Up Paint or equivalent on scratches or chips as soon as possible. Y our authorized dealer has touch-up paint to match the color of your vehicle. Wheel and Wheel T rim Care All wheels and wheel trim, especially aluminum and chrome-plated wheels, should be cleaned r egularly with a mild soap and water to prevent corr osion.
CAUTION! When installing hanging air fresheners in your ve- hicle, read the installation instructions carefully . Some air fresheners will damage the finish of painted or decorated parts if allowed to directly contact any surface.
Replace the belts if they appear frayed or worn or if the buckles do not work properly . Appearance Care for Fabric T op Models CAUTION! T o maintain the appearance of your vehicle’s interior trim and top, follow these precautions: • A void leaving your vehicle unattended with the top down, as exposure to sun or rain may damage interior trim.
CAUTION! Failure to follow these cautions may cause interior water damage, stains or mildew on the top material: • A void high-pressure car washes, as they can dam- age the top material. Also, increased water pres- sure may force past the weather strips.
Cleaner or equivalent will safely clean all plastic win- dows without scratching. It removes fine scratches to improve visibility and pr ovides UV protection to help prevent yellowing. 2. When washing, never use hot water or anything stronger than a mild soap.
