A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS Y our vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. This system consists of a Fob with Integrated Key and a W ireless Ignition Node (WIN) with an integral ignition switch. Y ou can insert the double-sided integrated key into the ignition switch with either side up.
Fob With Integrated Key The Fob with Integrated Key operates the ignition switch. It also contains the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) trans- mitter and a valet key , which stores in the r ear of the Fob. The valet key allows for entry into the vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the Fob go dead.
NOTE: The power window switches, radio, power sunroof (if equipped), and ignition-power ed power out- lets will remain active for up to 60 minutes after the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position. Opening either door will cancel this feature. The time for this feature is pr ogrammable.
is automatic, regar dless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked. The system uses the factory-mated Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter with integrated key and W ireless Igni- tion Node (WIN) to prevent unauthorized vehicle opera- tion.
All of the RKE transmitters provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle electr onics. Replacement Keys NOTE: Only RKE transmitters that are pr ogrammed to the vehicle electronics can be used to start and operate the vehicle. Once a transmitter is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed to any other vehicle.
2. Insert the second valid integrated key and turn the ignition switch to the ON position within 15 seconds. After 10 seconds, a chime will sound and the V ehicle Security Light will begin to flash. T urn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and remove the second key .
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM The V ehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for unau- thorized operation.
NOTE: • The driver’s door key cylinder and the trunk button on the RKE transmitter cannot arm or disarm the V ehicle Security Alarm. • The V ehicle Security Alarm remains armed during trunk entry . Pressing the TRUNK button will not disarm the V ehicle Security Alarm.
The lights will fade to off after about 30 seconds or they will immediately fade to off once the ignition switch is turned ON from the LOCK position.

Using The Panic Alarm T o turn the Panic Alarm featur e ON or OFF , pr ess and hold the P ANIC button on the transmitter for at least one second and release. When the Panic Alarm is on, the headlights and park lights will flash, the horn will pulse on and off, and the interior lights will turn on.
2. Remove and replace the battery . When r eplacing the battery , match the + sign on the battery to the + sign on the inside of the battery clip, located on the back cover . A void touching the new battery with your fingers. Skin oils may cause battery deterioration.
REMOTE ST ARTING SYSTEM This system uses the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter to start the engine conve- niently from outside the vehicle while still maintaining security . The system has a range of 328 ft (100 m). NOTE: The vehicle must be equipped with an auto- matic transmission to be equipped with Remote Start.
• 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 with the RKE transmitter . However , the ignition switch must be cycled to the ON position before you can repeat the start sequence for a thir d cycle.
DOOR LOCKS Manual Door Locks T o lock each door , push the door lock plunger on each door trim panel downward. T o unlock each door , pull the door lock plunger on each door trim panel upward. If the door lock plunger is down when you shut the door , the door will lock.
Power Door Locks The power door lock switch is located on each door trim panel. Use this switch to lock or unlock the doors. If you press the power door lock switch while the key is in the ignition, and either door is open, the power locks will not operate.
Automatic Door Locks — If Equipped The auto door lock feature can be enabled or disabled by your authorized dealer . See your authorized dealer for programming. Automatic Unlock Doors on Exit The doors will unlock automatically if: 1. The Automatic Unlock Doors On Exit feature is en- abled 2.
5. A single chime will indicate the completion of the programming. NOTE: If you do not hear the chime, it means that the system did not enter the programming mode and you will need to repeat the pr ocedure. 6. Repeat these steps if you want to return this featur e to its previous setting.
NOTE: • The door window will lower slightly if it is closed completely when opening the door . The window will return to its fully closed position after closing the door . This action allows the door to open without resistance and prevents window and seal damage.
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, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions.
TRUNK SAFETY W ARNING W ARNING! Do not allow children to have access to the trunk, either by climbing into the trunk from outside, or through the inside of the vehicle. Always close the trunk lid when your vehicle is unattended. Once in the trunk, young children may not be able to escape, even if they entered through the rear seat.
OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the r estraint systems. These include the front and rear seat belts for the driver and all passengers, the front airbags for both the driver and fr ont passenger , and the supplemental side curtain airbags for the driver and passengers seated next to a window .
Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision. Some of the worst injuries happen when people are thr own from the vehicle. Seat belts r educe the possibility of ejection and the risk of injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • W earing your belt in the wrong place could make your injuries in a collision much worse. Y ou might suffer internal injuries, or you could even slide out of part of the belt. Follow these instructions to wear your seat belt safely and to keep your pas- sengers safe, too.
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 .
5. Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The r etractor will withdraw any slack in the belt. 6. T o release the belt, push the red button on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position.
Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure Use the following procedur e to untwist a twisted lap/ shoulder belt. 1. Position the latch plate as close as possible to the anchor point. 2. At about 6 to 12 in (15 to 30 cm) above the latch plate, grasp and twist the belt webbing 180 degrees to cr eate a fold that begins immediately above the latch plate.
Use Reminder System (BeltAlert 威 ) will alert the driver to buckle the seat belt. The driver should also instruct all other occupants to buckle their seat belts. Once the warning is triggered, the BeltAlert 威 will continue to chime and flash the Seat Belt Reminder Light for 96 sec- onds or until the driver’s seat belt is buckled.
The BeltAlert 威 can be reactivated by r epeating this pro- cedure. NOTE: When the BeltAlert 威 is deactivated, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will continue to illuminate as long as the driver’s seat belt is unbuckled. Automatic Locking Mode — If Equipped In this mode, the shoulder belt is automatically pre- locked.
Seat Belt Extender If a seat belt is too short even when fully extended your authorized dealer can provide you with a seat belt extender . This extender should be used only if the existing belt is not long enough. When it is not requir ed, remove the extender and stor e it.
NOTE: The front airbags ar e certified to the Federal regulations that allow less for ceful deployment. The front airbags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the airbag to have differ ent rates of inflation that are based on collision severity .
This vehicle is also equipped with supplemental side curtain airbags (located above the side windows) to protect the driver and passenger sitting next to a window . Their covers are also labeled SRS AIRBAG. NOTE: Airbag covers may not be obvious in the interior trim, but they will open to allow airbag deployment.
protection for the driver and fr ont passenger . Side curtain airbags also work with seat belts to improve occupant protection. While the seat belts are designed to pr otect you in many types of collisions, the front airbags will deploy in moderate-to-severe fr ontal collisions.
seat as far back as possible and use the proper child restraint. (Refer to information on Child Restraint in this section.) 5. Y ou should read the instructions provided with your child restraint to make sur e that you are using it pr operly . 6. All occupants should use their seat belts properly .
Airbag System Components The airbag system consists of the following: • Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) • Side Remote Acceleration Sensors • Side Door Pressur e Sensors • Airbag W arning L.
• The ORC also monitors the readiness of the electr onic parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in the ST AR T or ON position. These include all of the items listed above except the knee bolster , the instru- ment panel, and the steering wheel and column.
their full size. The bags fully inflate in about 50 to 70 milliseconds. This is about half of the time that it takes to blink your eyes. The bags then quickly deflate while helping to restrain the driver and fr ont passenger . The driver front airbag gas is vented thr ough vent holes in the sides of the airbag.
If you do have a collision that deploys the airbags, any or all of the following may occur: • The nylon airbag material may sometimes cause abra- sions and/or skin reddening to the driver and fr ont passenger as the airbags deploy and unfold.
Enhanced Accident Response System In the event of an impact that causes airbag deployment, with the vehicle stopped, the vehicle communication network intact, and the power intact, the Enhanced Accident Response System performs the following func- tions: • Cuts off fuel to the engine.
NOTE: Perchlorate Material — special handling may apply . See www .dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate. Airbag W arning Light Y ou will want to have the airbags ready to inflate for your protection in an impact.
In conjunction with other data gathered during a com- plete accident investigation, the electronic data may be used by Chrysler LLC and others to learn more about the possible causes of crashes and associated injuries in order to assess and improve vehicle performance.
Data Parameters that May Be Recorded: • Diagnostic trouble code(s) and warning light status for electronically-contr olled safety systems, including the airbag system • Airbag disable light status.
W ARNING! In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby , can become a missile inside the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become so great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and others could be badly injured.
• Rearward-facing child seats must NEVER be used in the front seat of a vehicle with the fr ont passenger airbag unless the airbag is turned off. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury or death to infants in this position.
• 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 their back.
• Carefully follow the instr uctions that come with the restraint. If you install the r estraint improperly , it may not work when you need it. • Buckle the child into the seat according to the child restraint manufactur er’s directions.
child seats. Y ou should NEVER install LA TCH-compat- ible child seats so that two seats share a common lower anchorage. If installing child seats in adjacent rear - seating positions, or if your child restraints ar e not LA TCH-compatible, install the restraints using the vehi- cle’s seat belts.
window . These tether strap anchorages are under a plastic cover with this symbol on it. 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 of adjusting the tension in the strap.
the child restraint belt path and then buckle it. This should stow the seat belt out of the reach of an inquisitive child. Remind all children in the vehicle that the seat belts are not toys and should not be played with, and never leave your child unattended in the vehicle.
In the rear seat, you may have tr ouble tightening the lap/shoulder belt on the child restraint because the buckle or latch plate is too close to the belt path opening on the restraint. Disconnect the latch plate fr om the buckle and twist the short buckle end belt several times to shorten it.
NOTE: Ensure that the tether strap does not slip into the opening between the seatbacks as you remove slack in the strap. 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.
CAUTION! Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result. NOTE: A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation. This should be considered a normal part of the br eak-in and not interpreted as an indication of dif ficulty .
Exhaust Gas W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you.
Safety Checks Y ou Should Make Inside the V ehicle Seat Belts Inspect the belt system periodically , checking for cuts, frays, and loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately . Do not disassemble or modify the system. Front seat belt assemblies must be r eplaced after a collision.
Periodic Safety Checks Y ou Should Make Outside the V ehicle T ires Examine tires for excessive tr ead wear and uneven wear patterns. Check for stones, nails, glass, or other objects lodged in the tread. Inspect the tr ead and sidewall for cuts and cracks.

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust the inside and outside mirrors, fasten your seat belt, and if present, instr uct all other occupants to buckle their seat belts. W ARNING! • Never leave children alone in a vehicle.
W ARNING! Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started. Unburned fuel could enter the catalytic con- verter and once the engine has started, ignite and damage the converter and vehicle. If the vehicle has a discharged battery , booster cables may be used to obtain a start from another vehicle.
Do not press the accelerator . Use the Fob with Integrated Key to briefly turn the ignition switch to the ST AR T position and release it as soon as the starter engages. The starter motor will continue to run, and it will disengage automatically when the engine is running.
NOTE: The ENGINE ST AR T/STOP button should only be removed or inserted with the ignition in the OFF position. Normal Starting Using the ENGINE ST AR T/STOP Button — Automatic T ransmission Only NOTE: Normal starting of either a cold or a warm engine is obtained without pumping or pressing the accelerator pedal.
2. The ignition switch will return to the OFF position. 3. If the shift lever is not in P ARK, the ENGINE ST ART/ STOP button must be held for two seconds before the engine will shut off. The ignition switch position will remain in the ACC position until the shift lever is in P ARK and the button is pressed twice to the OFF position.
switch position will remain in the ACC position until the vehicle is stopped and the button is pressed twice to the OFF position. Keyless Go Functions – W ith Driver ’ s Foot OFF the Brake Pedal/Clutch Pedal (In P ARK or NEUTRAL Position) The Keyless Go feature operates similar to an ignition switch.
If Engine Fails T o Start W ARNING! • Never pour fuel or other flammable liquids into the throttle body air inlet opening in an attempt to start the vehicle. This could result in a flash fire causing serious personal injury . (Continued) W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started.
Clearing a Flooded Engine (Using ENGINE ST AR T/STOP Button) — Automatic T ransmission Only If the engine fails to start after you have followed the “Normal Starting” or “Extreme Cold W eather ⬙ proce- dures, it may be flooded.
CAUTION! T o prevent damage to the starter , wait 10 to 15 sec- onds before trying again. After Starting The idle speed is controlled automatically and it will decrease as the engine warms up. ENGINE BLOCK HEA TER — IF EQUIPPED The engine block heater warms the engine, and permits quicker starts in cold weather .
CAUTION! • Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal, or try to hold the vehicle on a hill with the clutch pedal partially engaged, as this will cause abnormal wear on the clutch. Refer to “Electronic Brake Control System/Hill Start Assist ⴖ in this section.
The six-speed manual transmission has a spring that centers the shift lever near third and fourth gear . This spring helps you know which gear you are in when you are shifting. Be car eful when shifting from first to second or downshifting from sixth to fifth.
prevent shifts into REVERSE. When at a complete stop, you may notice light shift efforts into REVERSE with the ignition key ON, and increased shift ef forts into REVERSE with the ignition key OFF . This is normal operation of the transmission reverse inhibitor system.
W ARNING! Skipping more than one gear while downshifting, could cause you to lose control of your vehicle. Y ou could have an accident. CAUTION! • If you skip more than one gear while downshift- ing or downshift at too high an engine speed, you could damage the engine, transmission, or clutch.
W ARNING! It is dangerous to move the shift lever out of P ARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly on the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward or in reverse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
• The electronically-contr olled transmission provides a precise shift schedule. The transmission electr onics are self-calibrating. Therefor e, the first few shifts on a new vehicle may be somewhat abrupt or soft until after the break-in period. This is a normal condition, and pr e- cision shifts will develop within a few shift cycles.
This may result in a slightly dif ferent feeling or r esponse during normal operation in DRIVE position. After the transmission cools down, it will return to normal operation.
W ith Keyless Go T o activate the override, with a valid keyfob (FOBIK) inside of the vehicle, and without the brake pedal pressed, pr ess the ST AR T/STOP button once to go to the ACC position, or twice to go to the ON position. Then, press the pink-color ed tab through the access port with a small flat-bladed screwdriver or alike.
When parking on a flat surface, place the shift lever in the P ARK position first, and then apply the parking brake. When parking on a hill, it is important to set the parking brake before placing the shift lever in P ARK, otherwise the load on the transmission locking mechanism may make it difficult to move the shift lever out of P ARK.
NEUTRAL This range is used when the vehicle is standing for prolonged periods with the engine r unning. The engine may be started in this range. Set the parking brake if you must leave the vehicle. CAUTION! Coasting the vehicle or driving for any other reason with the shift lever in NEUTRAL can result in transmission damage.
Delayed Shifts in Cold T emperatures During cold temperature operation, you may notice delayed upshifts depending on engine and transmission temperature as well as vehicle speed. This featur e im- proves warm up time of the engine and transmission to achieve maximum efficiency .
Have the transmission checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible. If the problem has been momentary , the transmission can be reset to r egain all forward gears. AUTOSTICK 姞 Autostick 威 is a driver-interactive transmission that of fers manual gear shifting to provide you with mor e control of the vehicle.
until an upshift or downshift is chosen. When you wish to disengage Autostick 威 , hold the shift lever to the right for at least two seconds. The transmission will now operate automatically , shifting between the five available gears. Autostick 姞 General Information • Y ou can start out in first or second gear .
W ARNING! Rapid acceleration on slippery surfaces is dangerous. Unequal traction can cause sudden pulling of the rear wheels. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and possibly have an accident. Accelerate slowly and carefully whenever there is likely to be poor traction (ice, snow , wet mud, loose sand, etc.
CAUTION! • Due to lower ground clearance, driving your ve- hicle up steep driveways, approach ramps or near parking blocks may cause vehicle damage to the front fascia and ground effects. • Driving through snow more than 4 inches (100 mm) deep may cause vehicle damage to the front fascia and ground effects.
CAUTION! • Always check the depth of the standing water before driving through it. Never drive through standing water that is deeper than the bottom of the tire rims mounted on the vehicle.
W ARNING! • Driving through standing water limits your vehi- cle’ s traction capabilities. Do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when driving through standing water . • Driving through standing water limits your vehi- cle’ s braking capabilities, which increases stop- ping distances.
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. CAUTION! Prolonged operation of the steering system at the end of the steering wheel travel will increase the steering fluid temperature and it should be avoided when possible.
P ARKING BRAKE The parking brake should always be applied when the driver is not in the vehicle. The “Brake W arning Light” in the instrument cluster will turn on when the parking brake is applied and the ignition switch is ON. NOTE: This light only shows that the parking brake is applied.
Manual T ransmission — If Equipped The foot operated parking brake is positioned below the lower left corner of the instrument panel. T o release the parking brake, pull the parking brake release handle. Automatic T ransmission — If Equipped The foot operated parking brake is positioned below the lower left corner of the instrument panel.
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 movement and possible injury or damage. W ARNING! • Never leave children alone in a vehicle. Leaving unattended children in a vehicle is dangerous for a number of reasons.
pedal force r equired to slow or stop, and potential activation of the “Brake W arning Light.” In the event power assist is lost for any reason (for example, repeated brake applications with the engine OFF) the brakes will still function.
• A slight drop or fall away of the brake pedal at the end of the stop. These are all normal characteristics of ABS. W ARNING! • The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) contains so- phisticated electronic equipment that may be sus- ceptible to interference caused by improperly in- stalled or high output radio transmitting equipment.
W ARNING! (Continued) • The capabilities of an Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner , that could jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of others.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM Y our vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic brake control system commonly r eferred to as ESP . This system includes the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), the T raction Control System (TCS), the Brake Assist System (BAS), and the Electronic Stability Pr ogram (ESP).
A feature of the TCS system functions similar to a limited-slip differ ential and controls the wheel spin across a driven axle. If one wheel on a driven axle is spinning faster than the other , the system will apply the brake of the spinning wheel. This will allow more engine torque to be applied to the wheel that is not spinning.
W ARNING! The 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 re- sulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning.
W ARNING! There may be situations on minor hills (i.e., less than 8%), with a loaded vehicle, or while pulling a trailer , when the system will not activate and slight rolling may occur . This could cause a collision with another vehicle or object. Always remember the driver is responsible for braking the vehicle.
8. Rotate the steering wheel back to center and then an additional half-turn to the right. 9. T urn the ignition switch to the OFF position and then back to the ON position. If the sequence was completed properly , the “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” will blink sev- eral times to confirm HSA is disabled.
W ARNING! The ESP cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. The ESP cannot prevent accidents, including those result- ing from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning.

“Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in Sec- tion 4. T o turn ESP ON again, momentarily press the ESP OFF switch. NOTE: The ⬙ ESP OFF ⬙ message will display and the audible chime will sound when the shift lever is moved into the P ARK position from any position other than P ARK and then moved out of the P ARK position.
Synchronizing ESP The Malfunction Indicator Light for the ESP is combined with BAS indicator . If the power supply is interrupted (battery disconnected or discharged), the “ESP/BAS Malfunction Indi- cator Light” may illuminate with the engine running.
NOTE: • The “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” and the “ESP/BAS Malfunction Indicator Light” will turn on momen- tarily each time the ignition switch is turned ON. • Each time the ignition is turned ON, the ESP System will be ON even if it was turned OFF previously .
NOTE: • P (Passenger) - Metric tir e sizing is based on U.S. design standards. P-Metric tir es have the letter “P” molded into the sidewall preceding the size designa- tion. Example: P215/65R15 95H. • European-Metric tir e sizing is based on European design standards.

Loading The vehicle maximum load on the tire must not exceed the load carrying capacity of the tire on your vehicle. Y ou will not exceed the tire’s load carrying capacity if you adhere to the loadi.
available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs (295 kg) (since 5 x 150 = 750, and 1400 – 750 = 650 lbs [295 kg]). 5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.
ST ARTING AND OPERA TING 293 5.
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) • Over-inflation reduces a tire’s ability to cushion shock. Objects on the road and chuckholes can cause damage that result in tire failure. • Unequal tire pressures can cause steering prob- lems. Y ou could lose control of your vehicle.
The 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 Pressures for High Speed Operation The manufacturer advocates driving at safe speeds within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or condi- tions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high speeds, maintaining correct tir e inflation pressur e is very important.
W ARNING! Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces gener- ated by excessive wheel speeds may cause tire dam- age or failure. A tire could explode and injure some- one.
Life Of Tire The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including, but not limited to: • Driving style • T ire pressur e • Distance driven W ARNING! T ires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread.
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.
CAUTION! Damage to the vehicle may result if tire chains are used. SNOW TIRES Some areas of the country r equire the use of snow tir es during the winter . Standard tir es are of the all season type and satisfy this requir ement as indicated by the M+S designation on the tire sidewall.
Tire Rotation — Four Season/RSA Tires The suggested rotation method for vehicles equipped with all season tires is the “forwar d-cross” as shown in the following diagram. Tire Rotation — F1 Three Season T ires The suggested rotation method is the “side-to-side” as shown in the following diagram.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS) The T ire Pressur e Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pr essure based on the vehicle r ecom- mended cold placard pr essure. 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) placard pr essure of 30 psi (207 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the measured tir e pressur e is 27 psi (186 kPa), a temperature dr op to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the tir e pressur e to approximately 23 psi (158 kPa).
NOTE: • The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tir e care and maintenance or 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.
The TPMS consists of the following components: • Receiver module, • Four TPM sensors, • CORAX Receiver module, • V arious TPMS messages, which display in the Elec- tronic V ehicle Information .
turn off. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (25 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive this information. Check TPMS W arning If a system fault is detected, the TPM T elltale Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then r emain on solid.
of the dashes. A system fault can occur due to any of the following: 1. Signal interference due to electr onic devices or driving next to facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the TPM sensors. 2. Installing aftermarket window tinting that contains materials that may block radio wave signals.
Light spark knock at low engine speeds is not harmful to your engine. However , continued heavy spark knock at high speeds can cause damage and immediate service is requir ed. Poor quality gasoline can cause problems such as hard starting, stalling, and hesitations.
CAUTION! DO NOT use gasolines containing Methanol or E85 Ethanol. Use of these blends may result in starting and driveability problems and may damage critical fuel system components. Problems that r esult from using methanol/gasoline or E85 ethanol blends are not the r esponsibility of the manufacturer .
MMT In Gasoline MMT is a manganese-containing metallic additive that is blended into some gasoline to increase octane. Gasoline blended with MMT provides no performance advantage beyond gasoline of the same octane number without MMT . Gasoline blended with MMT reduces spark plug life and reduces emissions system performance in some vehicles.
• An out-of-tune engine or certain fuel or ignition mal- functions can cause the catalytic converter to overheat. If you notice a pungent burning odor or some light smoke, your engine may be out of tune or malfunc- tioning and may requir e immediate service.
• Guard against carbon monoxide with pr oper mainte- nance. Have the exhaust system inspected every time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal conditions repair ed promptly .
CAUTION! • Damage to the fuel system or emissions control system could result from using an improper fuel tank filler tube cap (gas cap). • A poorly fitting gas cap could let impurities into the fuel system. • A poorly fitting gas cap may cause the Malfunc- tion Indicator Light (MIL) to turn on.
Loose Fuel Filler Cap Message If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the fuel filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged, a “Check Gascap” message will display in the Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC).
Gross V ehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) The GVWR is the total allowable weight of your vehicle. This includes driver , passengers, and cargo. The total load must be limited so that you do not exceed the GVWR. Gross Axle Weight Rating (GA WR) The GA WR is the maximum capacity of the front and r ear axles.
Loading T o load your vehicle properly , first figure out its empty weight, axle-by-axle and side-by-side. Store heavier items down low and be sure you distribute their weight as evenly as possible.

inspect the exhaust system each time the vehicle is raised for lubrication or oil change. Replace as requir ed. W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you.
W ARNING! A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you park over materials that can burn. Such materials might be grass or leaves coming into contact with your exhaust system. Do not park or operate your vehicle in areas where your exhaust system can contact anything that can burn.
Cooling System W ARNING! • When working near the radiator cooling fan, dis- connect 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 ignition switch is in the ON position.
Cooling System — Drain, Flush, and Refill If the solution is dirty or contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with a reliable cooling system cleaner . Follow with a thorough rinsing to r emove all deposits and chemicals. Properly dispose of the old antifreeze solution.
Adding Coolant Y our vehicle has been built with an improved engine coolant that allows extended maintenance intervals. This coolant can be used up to five years or 102,000 miles (170 000 km) before r eplacement.
The cap should be inspected and cleaned if there is any accumulation of foreign material on the sealing surfaces. W ARNING! • The warning words “DO NOT OPEN HOT” on the cooling system pressure cap are a safety pre- caution. Never add coolant when the engine is overheated.
When additional coolant 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 coolant performance, poor gas mileage, and increased emissions.
Use only manufacturer’s r ecommended brake fluid. Re- fer to “Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts” in this section for the correct fluid type. W ARNING! • Overfilling the brake fluid reservoir can result in spilling brake fluid on hot engine parts and the brake fluid catching fire.
