A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS Y our vehicle uses a keyless ignition system. This system consists of a Key Fob with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and a W ireless Ignition Node (WIN) with integral ignition switch. Y ou can insert the Key Fob into the ignition switch with either side up.
Key Fob The Key Fob operates the ignition switch. It also contains the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and an emergency key , which stores in the r ear 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 at the top of the Key Fob sideways with your thumb and then pull the key out with your other hand. NOTE: Y ou can insert the double-sided emergency key into the lock cylinders with either side up.
W ARNING! • 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 Fob in the ignition or a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go in the ACC or ON/RUN mode.
SENTR Y KEY 姞 The Sentry Key 威 Immobilizer System prevents unauthor - ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation is automatic, regar dless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
Replacement Keys NOTE: Only Key Fobs that are pr ogrammed to the vehicle electronics can be used to start and operate the vehicle. Once a Key Fob is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed to any other vehicle. CAUTION! • Always remove the Key Fobs from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unat- tended.
• This device must accept any interference that may be received, including interfer ence that may cause unde- sired operation. VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM The V ehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for unau- thorized operation.
V ehicles Equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go Press the Keyless Enter -N-Go Start/Stop button until the Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC) indicates that the vehicle ignition is ⬙ OFF ⬙ (refer to “Starting Procedur es” in “Starting And Operating” for further information).
If the V ehicle Security Alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected, the V ehicle Security Alarm will remain armed when the battery is r econnected. The exterior lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the V ehicle Security Alarm.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTR Y (RKE) The RKE system allows you to lock or unlock the doors, open the trunk, or activate the Panic Alarm from dis- tances up to approximately 66 ft (20 m) using a hand-held Key Fob with RKE transmitter . The RKE transmitter does not need to be pointed at the vehicle to activate the system.
Remote Key Unlock, Driver Door/All Doors First This feature lets you pr ogram the system to unlock either the driver’s door or both doors on the first press of the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter .
• When not using the EVIC, perform the following steps: 1. Press and hold the UNLOCK button on a pr ogrammed RKE transmitter for at least 4 seconds, but no longer than 10 seconds. Then, press and hold the LOCK button while still holding the UNLOCK button.
Sound Horn with Remote Key Lock This feature will cause the horn to chirp when the doors are locked with the RKE transmitter . This feature can be turned on or turned off.
T o Open The T runk Press the TRUNK button on the RKE transmitter two times within five seconds to open the trunk. Using The Panic Alarm T o turn the Panic Alarm featur e ON or OFF , press and hold the P ANIC button on the RKE transmitter for at least one second and release.
2. Remove and 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 . 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 approximately 300 ft (91 m). NOTE: The vehicle must be equipped with an auto- matic transmission to be equipped with Remote Start.
T o Enter Remote Start Mode Press and r elease the REMOTE ST AR T button on the RKE transmitter twice, within five sec- onds. The parking lights will flash and the horn will chirp twice (if programmed). Then, the engine will start and the vehicle will remain in the Remote Start mode for a 15-minute cycle.
equipped). Then, prior to the end of the 15 minute cycle, press and r elease the ST AR T/STOP button. If the ST ART/ST OP button is not present, insert the Key Fob into the ignition switch and turn the switch to the ON/RUN position.
If the door lock knob is down when you shut the door , the door will lock. Therefor e, make sure the key is not inside the vehicle before closing the door . W ARNING! • For personal security and safety in the event of an accident, lock the vehicle doors before you drive as well as when you park and leave the vehicle.
If you press the power door lock switch while the Key Fob is in the ignition, and either door is open, the power locks will not operate. This prevents you fr om acciden- tally locking the Key Fob in the vehicle. Removing the Key Fob or closing the door will allow the locks to operate.
6. The vehicle speed is 0 mph (0 km/h) Automatic Unlock Doors on Exit Programming The Automatic Unlock Doors On Exit feature can be enabled or disabled. Refer to “Electronic V ehicle Infor- mation Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings (Customer- Programmable Featur es)” in “Understanding Y our In- strument Panel” for further information.
WINDOWS Power Windows The window controls on the driver’s door contr ol both of the door windows. There is a single window contr ol on the passenger’s door trim panel that operates the window on the passenger’s door . The window controls will operate only when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN or ACC position.
AUTO-Down Feature The driver’s door power window switch and passenger door power window switch have an AUTO-down fea- ture. Pr ess the window switch to the second detent, release, and the window will go down automatically . T o open the window part way , press the window switch to the first detent and release it when you want the window to stop.
NOTE: The transmission must be in P ARK before the button will operate. If equipped with a manual transmis- sion, the vehicle speed must be under 5 mph (8 km/h) before the button will operate.
T runk Emergency Release The trunk of your vehicle is equipped with an emer gency release handle. It is located on the inside of the tr unk lid, near the latch, and is coated so that it glows in a darkened trunk.
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).
of 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 designed to lock during very sudden stops or impacts.
W ARNING! (Continued) • W earing your belt in the wrong place could make your injuries in an accident much worse. Y ou might suffer internal injuries, or you could even slide out of part of the belt. Follow these instruc- tions to wear your seat belt safely and to keep your passengers 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 belt that is worn under your arm is dangerous. Y our body could strike the inside surfaces of the vehicle in an accident, increasing head and neck injury . A belt worn under the arm can cause internal injuries. Ribs are not as strong as shoulder bones.
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 r ed 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.
How T o Disengage The Automatic Locking Mode Unbuckle the combination lap/shoulder belt and allow it to retract completely to disengage the Automatic Locking Mode and activate the vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode.
NOTE: These devices are not a substitute for pr oper seat belt placement by the occupant. The seat belt still must be worn snugly and positioned properly . The pretensioners ar e triggered by the Occupant Re- straint Controller (ORC). Like the airbags, the pr etension- ers are single use items.
BeltAlert 威 Programming The BeltAlert 威 can be enabled or disabled by your authorized dealer or by performing the following steps: NOTE: Chrysler Group LLC does not r ecommend de- activating the BeltAlert 威 . 1. W ith both doors closed, and the ignition switch in any position except ON/RUN or ST ART , buckle the driver’s seat belt.
Seat Belts and Pregnant Women W e recommend that pr egnant women use the seat belts throughout their pr egnancy . Keeping the mother safe is the best way to keep the baby safe. Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt across the thighs and as snug acr oss the hips as possible.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - Airbags This vehicle has Advanced Front Airbags for both the driver and front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver’s Advanced Front Air- bag is mounted in the center of the steering wheel.
The Advanced Front Airbags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the airbag to have differ ent rates of inflation based on the severity and type of collision. This vehicle may be equipped with driver and/or front passenger seat track position sensors that may adjust the inflation rate of the Advanced Front Airbags based upon seat position.
• Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtains (SABIC) • Front and Side Impact Sensors • Front Seat Belt Pr etensioners, Seat Belt Buckle Switch, and Seat T rack Position Sensors Advanced Front Airbag Features The Advanced Front Airbag system has multistage driver and front passenger airbags.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not mount any accessories to the knee bolster such as alarm lights, stereos, citizen band radios, etc. Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC) — If Equipped .
• Being too close to the SABIC airbags during deploy- ment could cause you to be severely injur ed or killed. The system includes side impact sensors adjacent to both front and r ear seat occupants that are calibrated to deploy the SABIC airbags during impacts that requir e airbag occupant protection.
W ARNING! Infants in rear-facing child restraints should never ride in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger Advanced Front Airbag. An airbag deployment can cause severe injury or death to infants in that posi- tion.
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 . If the airbag system in this vehicle needs to be modified to accommodate a disabled person, contact the Customer Center .
The ORC determines if deployment of the front and/or side airbags in a frontal or side collision is r equired. Based on the impact sensors signals, a central electronic ORC deploys the Advanced Fr ont.
position, in the ACC position, or not in the ignition, the airbag system is not on and the airbags will not inflate. The ORC contains a backup power supply system that may deploy the airbags even if the battery loses power or it becomes disconnected prior to deployment.
wheel hub trim cover and the upper right side of the instrument panel separate and fold out of the way as the airbags inflate to their full size. The airbags fully inflate in about 50 to 70 milliseconds. This is about half of the time it takes to blink your eyes.
Front and Side Impact Sensors In front and side impacts, impact sensors can aid the ORC in determining appropriate r esponse to impact events. Additional sensors in the ORC determine the level of airbag deployment and provide verification.
floor . They are not caused by contact with chemicals. They are not permanent and normally heal quickly . However , if you haven’t healed significantly within a few days, or if you have any blistering, see your doctor immediately . • As the airbags deflate, you may see some smoke-like particles.
Maintaining Y our Airbag System W ARNING! • Modifications to any part of the airbag system could cause it to fail when you need it. Y ou could be injured if the airbag system is not there to protect you.
Airbag W arning Light Y ou will want to have the airbags ready to inflate for your protection in a collision. The airbag system is designed to be maintenance free, if any of the following occurs, have an authorized dealer service the airbag system immediately .
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and, • How fast the vehicle was traveling. These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur .
W ARNING! In an collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby , can become a projectile 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.
W ARNING! Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of a vehicle with the front passenger airbag unless the airbag is turned off.
• 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.
Here are some tips on 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. Chrysler Gr oup LLC also recommends that you make sure that you can install the child r estraint in the vehicle where you will use it befor e you buy it.
available for some time. For some older child restraints, many child restraint manufactur ers offer add-on tether strap kits or retr ofit kits. Y ou are ur ged to take advantage of all the available attachments provided with your child restraint in any vehicle.
Installing the LA TCH-Compatible Child Restraint System W e urge you to follow the manufactur er’s directions carefully 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 are pr ovided with the child restraint system.
provide the most dir ect path between the anchor and the child restraint. Finally , tighten all three straps as you push the child restraint r earward and downward into the seat, removing slack in the straps accor ding to the child restraint manufactur er’s instructions.
Installing Child Restraints Using the V ehicle Seat Belt The seat belts in the passenger seating positions are equipped with either an Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) or a cinching latch plate or both.
3. Attach the tether strap hook (A) of the child restraint to the anchor (B) and remove slack in the tether strap according to the child r estraint manufacturer’s instruc- tions. NOTE: Ensure that the tether strap does not slip into the opening between the seatbacks as you remove slack in the strap.
While cruising, brief full-thr ottle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws contributes to a good br eak-in. However , wide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be detrimental and should be avoided. The engine oil, transmission fluid, and axle lubricant installed at the factory is high-quality and energy- conserving.
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.

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. • Do not downshift into first gear when the vehicle is moving faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), as you could damage the engine and/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.
Over-T emperature Mode The transmission electronics constantly monitor the transmission oil temperature. If the transmission exceeds normal operating temperature, the transmission will change the way it shifts to help control the condition. This may result in a slightly dif ferent feeling or response during normal operation in DRIVE position.
1. T urn the ignition switch to the ACC or ON position (RUN position with Keyless Go™) without starting the engine. 2. Firmly set the parking brake. 3. Press and maintain firm pr essure on the brake pedal. 4. Using the screwdriver , press and hold the override tab through the access port on the center console.
W ith Keyless Go™ If the engine is running, pr ess the ST ART/ST OP button to turn it off. Release the brake pedal and pr ess the ST AR T/ STOP button once or twice to go to the ACC or RUN position. Do not start the engine. Then, follow the in- structions shown above to activate the override.
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.
REVERSE This range is used for moving the vehicle rearwar d. Always stop before moving the shift lever to REVERSE. 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.
under heavy loading conditions (in hilly terrain, travel- ing into strong head winds, or while towing heavy trailers, use the AutoStick 威 mode and select the “3” range.
NOTE: Even if the transmission can be reset, we r ecom- mend that you visit your authorized dealer at your earliest possible convenience. Y our authorized dealer has diagnostic equipment to determine if the problem could recur . Have the transmission checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Y ou can shift in or out of the AutoStick 威 mode at any time without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal. When you wish to engage AutoStick 威 , simply move the shift lever to the right (D+) or left (D-) while in the DRIVE position. The transmission will remain in the curr ent gear until an upshift or downshift is chosen.
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 a collision. 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 damage to the front fascia and ground effects. • Driving through snow more than 4 inches (100 mm) deep may cause 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.
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.

T o r elease the parking brake, pull the parking brake release handle. Automatic T ransmission – If Equipped The foot operated parking brake is located 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. • Never leave children alone in a vehicle. Leaving unattended children in a vehicle is dangerous for a number of reasons.
BRAKE SYSTEM Y our vehicle is equipped with dual hydraulic brake systems. If either of the two hydraulic systems loses normal capability , the remaining system will still function.
Y ou also may experience the following when the brake system goes into Anti-Lock: • The ABS motor running (it may continue to run for a short time after the stop), • The clicking sound of solenoid valves, • Brake pedal pulsations, and • A slight drop or fall away of the brake pedal at the end of the stop.
W ARNING! (Continued) • The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking or steering efficiency beyond that af forded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded.
If both the “Brake W arning Light” and the “ABS W arning Light” remain on, the ABS and EBD systems are not functioning. Immediate repair to the ABS system is requir ed. ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM Y our vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic brake control system commonly r eferred to as ESP .
T raction Control System (TCS) This system monitors the amount of wheel spin of each driven wheel. If wheel spin is detected, brake pressur e is applied to the slipping wheel(s) and engine power is reduced to pr ovide enhanced acceleration and stability .
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! 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 ve- hicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left. • Always drive with each tire inflated to the recom- mended cold tire inflation pressure. Economy Improper inflation pr essures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tir e tread.
CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the valve stem. Inflation pressur es specified on the placard are always “cold tire inflation pr essure.
loading may be requir ed for high-speed vehicle opera- tion. Refer to original equipment or an authorized tire dealer for recommended safe operating speeds, loading and cold tire inflation pr essures. W ARNING! High speed driving with your vehicle under maxi- mum load is dangerous.
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 pr essure • 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.
SNOW TIRES Some areas of the country r equire the use of snow tires during the winter . Standard tires ar e of the all season type and satisfy this requir ement as indicated by the M+S designation on the tire sidewall. If you need snow tires, select tir es equivalent in size and type to the original equipment tires.
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 Pr essure Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pr essure based on the vehicle recom- mended cold placard pr essure. The tire pr essure will vary with temperature 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 pressur e of 30 psi (207 kPa). If the ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the measured tir e pressure is 27 psi (186 kPa), a temperature dr op to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the tire 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 failure.
• V arious TPMS messages, which display in the Elec- tronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC), and • TPM T elltale Light T ire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure W arnings The “TPM T elltale Light” will illuminate in the instrument cluster and a chime will sound when tire pr essure is low in one or more of the four active road tir es.
will 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.
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. 3. Accumulation of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
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.
CAUTION! (Continued) • An out-of-tune engine or certain fuel or ignition malfunctions 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 malfunctioning and may require immediate service.
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 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.
• When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the fuel tank is full. 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).
• T ype of V ehicle • Month Day and Hour of Manufacture (MDH) The bar code allows a computer scanner to read the VIN. Gross V ehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) The GVWR is the total allowable weight of your vehicle. This includes driver , passengers, and cargo.
Figure out the weight on the fr ont and rear of the vehicle separately . It is important that you distribute the load evenly over the front and r ear axles. Overloading can cause potential safety hazards and shorten useful service life. Heavier axles or suspension components do not necessarily increase the vehicle’s GVWR.
The parking brake must be firmly engaged and the wheels chocked during driveshaft removal and installa- tion. The parking brake must remain engaged unless the vehicle is securely and pr operly connected to the tow vehicle, or the driveshaft is completely reinstalled.
