A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS Y our vehicle uses either a key start ignition system or keyless ignition system. The key start ignition system consists of a either a bladed key with an immobilizer chip in it, or a Key Fob with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and an Ignition Node Module (IGNM).
Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) — If Equipped This feature allows the driver to operate the ignition switch with the push of a button, as long as the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is in the passenger compartment. The Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) has four operating positions, three of which are labeled and will illuminate when in position.
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ Feature If your vehicle is equipped with the Keyless Enter-N- Go™ feature, refer to “Starting Procedur e” in “Starting And Operating” for further information. Standard Blade Ignition Key — If Equipped Y our vehicle may use a standard blade key ignition system.
Key Fob — If Equipped The Key Fob also contains the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and an emergency key , which stores in the rear of the Key Fob. The emergency key allows for entry into the vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or the Key Fob go dead.
NOTE: Y ou can insert the double-sided emergency key into the lock cylinders with either side up. Ignition Or Accessory On Message Opening the driver’s door when the ignition is in ACC or ON (engine not running), a chime will sound to remind you to place the ignition in the OFF position.
W ARNING! • When leaving the vehicle, always remove the Key Fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle. • Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. • Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons.
The system uses a Key or Key Fob with Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter , an RF receiver , and either an Ignition Node Module (IGNM) or a Keyless Ignition Node (KIN) to prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefor e, only Keys or Key Fobs that are programmed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle.
CAUTION! Always remove the keys from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended. At the time of purchase, the original owner is provided with a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN). Keep the PIN in a secur e location.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF EQUIPPED The V ehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the ignition switch for unau- thorized operation. This system may also incorporate a ultrasonic intrusion sensor that monitors for motion in the vehicle.

W ith the ignition in the ON/RUN position, the T runk Open symbol will display in the instrument cluster indicating that the trunk is open. The odometer display will reappear once the trunk is closed. W ith the ignition in the OFF position, the T runk Open symbol will display until the trunk is closed.
OCCUP ANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the restraint systems: • Seat Belt Systems • Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) Air Bags • Child Restraints Important Safety Precautions Please pay close attention to the information in this section.
2. If a child from 2 to 12 years old (not in a rear -facing child restraint) must ride in the front passenger seat, move the seat as far back as possible and use the proper child restraint.
W ARNING! • Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger , including a child in a rear- facing child restraint. • Only use rear-facing child restraint in a vehicle with a rear seat.
After the sequence completes, the Seat Belt Reminder Light remains illuminated until the respective seat belts are buckled. The driver should instruct all other occu- pants to buckle their seat belts.
W ARNING! • Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The air bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly . In some collisions, the air bags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt even though you have air bags.
W ARNING! (Continued) • A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of injury in a collision. The seat belt forces won’t be at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across your abdomen. Always wear the lap part of your seat belt as low as possible and keep it snug.
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 .
3. When the seat belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.” 4. Position the lap belt so that it is snug and lies low across your hips, below your abdomen. T o remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up on the shoulder belt.
6. T o release the seat belt, push the red button on the buckle. The seat belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary , slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow the seat belt to r etract fully . Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure Use the following procedure to untwist a twisted lap/ shoulder belt.
As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a lower position, and if you are taller than average, you will prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a higher position. After you release the anchorage button, try to move it up or down to make sure that it is locked in position.
W ARNING! • ONL Y use a Seat Belt Extender if it is physically required in order to properly fit the original seat belt system. DO NOT USE the Seat Belt Extender if, when worn, the distance between the front edge of the Seat Belt Extender buckle and the center of the occupant’ s body is LESS than 6 inches.
The pretensioners are triggered by the Occupant Re- straint Controller (ORC). Like the air bags, the preten- sioners are single use items. A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately .
If the passenger seating position is equipped with an ALR and is being used for normal usage: Only pull the seat belt webbing out far enough to comfortably wrap around the occupant’s mid-section so as to not activate the ALR. If the ALR is activated, you will hear a clicking sound as the seat belt retracts.
3. Allow the seat belt to retract. As the seat belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This indicates the seat belt is now in the Automatic Locking Mode.
• Steering Wheel and Column • Instrument Panel • Knee Impact Bolsters • Advanced Front Air Bags • Supplemental Side Air Bags • Supplemental Knee Air Bags • Fr ont and Side Impact Sensors.
W ARNING! • Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front Air Bag deployment could cause serious injury , including death. Air bags need room to inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or instrument panel.
Advanced Front Air Bag Features The Advanced Front Air Bag system has multistage driver and front passenger air bags. This system provides output appropriate to the severity and type of collision as determined by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), which may receive information from the fr ont impact sensors or other system components.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The air bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly . In some collisions, air bags won’t deploy at all. Al- ways wear your seat belts even though you have air bags.

way as the air bags inflate to their full size. The Advanced Front Air Bags fully inflate in less time than it takes to blink your eyes. The air bags then quickly deflate while helping to restrain the driver and front passenger .
The OCS will NOT prevent deployment of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. The OCS may reduce the inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag if the OCS estimates that: • The front pass.
W ARNING! • Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger , including a child in a rear- facing child restraint. • Only use rear-facing child restraint in a vehicle with a rear seat.
Lighter W eight Passengers (Including Small Adults) When a lighter weight passenger , including a small adult, occupies the front passenger seat, the OCS may reduce the inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. This does not mean that the OCS is working improperly .
The OCS will detect the front passenger ’s decreased or increased seated weight, which may result in an adjusted inflation rate of the Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag in a collision.
The OCS determines the front passenger ’s most probable classification. If an occupant in the front passenger seat is seated improperly , the occupant may provide an output signal to the OCS that is.
Not Seated Properly Not Seated Properly 74 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE ST ARTING YOUR VEHICLE I n f o r m a t i o n P r o v i d e d b y :.
W ARNING! • If an occupant in the front passenger seat is seated improperly , the occupant may provide an output signal to the OCS that is different from the occu- pant’ s properly seated weight input. This may result in serious injury or death in a collision.

Do not make any modifications to the front passenger seat components, assembly , or to the seat cover . If the seat, trim cover , or cushion needs service for any reason, take the vehicle to your authorized dealer .
.
The SABs may help to reduce the risk of occupant injury during certain side impacts, in addition to the injury reduction potential provided by the seat belts and body structur e.
When the SAB deploys, it opens the seam on the out- board side of the seatback’s trim cover (front seats) and the seam on the outboard side of the seat cushion’s trim cover (outboard rear seats — if equipped with rear SABs). The inflating SAB deploys through the seat seam into the space between the occupant and the door .
SABICs may help reduce the risk of head injury to front and rear seat outboard occupants in certain side impacts. SABICs may reduce the risk of injuries in certain side impacts, in addition to the injury reduction potential provided by the seat belts and body structure.
The SABICs and SABs (“Side Air Bags”) are designed to activate in certain side impacts. The Occupant Restraint Controller (“ORC”) determines whether the deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular impact event is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision.
be properly restrained in a child restraint or booster seat that is appropriate for the size of the child. W ARNING! • Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window . Sit upright in the center of the seat. • Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deploy- ment could cause you to be severely injured or killed.
• As the air bags deflate, you may see some smoke-like particles. The particles are a normal by-product of the process that generates the non-toxic gas used for air bag inflation. These airborne particles may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, or throat.
• Cut off fuel to the engine. • Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power or until the ignition switch is turned to the “OFF” posi- tion. • T urn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the ignition switch is turned to the “OFF” position.
the ON/RUN position. After the self-check, the Air Bag W arning Light will turn off. If the ORC detects a mal- function in any part of the system, it turns on the Air Bag W arning Light, either momentarily or continuously . A single chime will sound to alert you if the light comes on again after initial startup.
Maintaining Y our Air Bag System W ARNING! • Modifications to any part of the air bag system could cause it to fail when you need it. Y ou could be injured if the air bag system is not there to protect you.
Event Data Recorder (EDR) This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems per- formed.
Child Restraints Everyone in your vehicle needs to be buckled up at all times, including babies and children. Every state in the United States, and every Canadian province, requir es that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law , and you can be pros- ecuted for ignoring it.
NOTE: • For additional information, refer to www .seatcheck.org or call 1–866–SEA TCHECK (732–8243). Canadian resi- dents should refer to T ransport Canada’s website for additional information: • www .tc.gc.ca/eng/roadsafety/safedrivers- childsafety-index-53.

W ARNING! • Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an air bag. A deploying passenger Advanced Front Air Bag can cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or younger , including a child in a rear- facing child restraint. • Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a vehicle with a rear seat.
seat. The child and belt-positioning booster seat are held in the vehicle by the seat belt. W ARNING! • Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. It could come loose in a collision. The child could be badly injured or killed.
2. Do the child’s knees bend comfortably over the front of the vehicle seat – while they are still sitting all the way back? 3. Does the shoulder belt cross the child’s shoulder between their neck and arm? 4. Is the lap part of the seat belt as low as possible, touching the child’s thighs and not their stomach? 5.

Lower Anchors And T ethers For Children (LA TCH) Restraint System Y our vehicle is equipped with the child restraint anchor- age system called LA TCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and T ethers for CHildren. The LA TCH system has three vehicle anchor points for installing LA TCH- equipped child seats.
LA TCH Positions For Installing Child Restraints In This V ehicle • Lower Anchorage Symbol 2 anchorages per seating position • T op T ether Anchorage Symbol 96 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE ST ARTING YOUR.
What is the weight limit (child’s weight + weight of the child restraint) for using the LA TCH anchorage system to attach the child restraint? 65 lbs (29.5 kg) Use the LA TCH anchorage system until the combined weight of the child and the child restraint is 65 lbs (29.
Can two child restraints be attached using a common lower LA TCH anchorage? No Never “share” a LA TCH anchorage with two or more child restraints. If the center position does not have dedicated LA.
Locating The LA TCH Anchorages The lower anchorages are round bars that are found at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback, below the anchorage sym- bols on the seatback. They are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint.
Locating The T ether Anchorages There are tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located in the panel be- tween the rear seatback and the rear window .
tether strap. The tether strap will have a hook at the end to attach to the top tether anchorage and a way to tighten the strap after it is attached to the anchorage. Center Seat LA TCH Do not install child restraints with rigid lower attach- ments in the center seating position.
1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages. 2. Place the child seat between the lower anchorages for that seating position.
behind the child restraint, route the seat belt through the child restraint belt path and then buckle it. Do not lock the seat belt. Remind all children in the vehicle that the seat belts are not toys and that they should not play with them.

strap. See the section “Installing Child Restraints Using the T op T ether Anchorage” for directions to attach a tether anchor . 9. T est that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat at the seat belt path.
1. Look behind the seating position where you plan to install the child restraint to find the tether anchorage. Y ou may need to move the seat forward to provide better access to the tether anchorage. If there is no top tether anchorage for that seating position, move the child restraint to another position in the vehicle if one is available.
5. Remove slack in the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturer ’s instructions. W ARNING! • An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchorage position directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws contributes to a good break-in. W ide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be detri- mental and should be avoided. The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving type lubricant.
W ARNING! (Continued) • It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. • Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
Whenever a change is noticed in the sound of the exhaust system, when exhaust fumes can be detected inside the vehicle, or when the underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged, have a competent mechanic inspect the com- plete exhaust system and adjacent body areas for broken, damaged, deteriorated, or mispositioned parts.
feel the air directed against the windshield. See your authorized dealer for service if your defroster is inoper- able. Floor Mat Safety Information Always use floor mats designed to fit the footwell of your vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver footwell while the vehicle is moving. Ob- jects can become trapped under the brake pedal and accelerator pedal causing a loss of vehicle control. • If required, mounting posts must be properly in- stalled, if not equipped from the factory .

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts. W ARNING! • When leaving the vehicle, always remove the Key Fob from the ignition and lock your vehicle. • Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
• If the key will not turn and the steering wheel is locked, rotate the wheel in either direction to relieve pressur e on the locking mechanism and then turn the key . Automatic T ransmission — If Equipped The shift lever must be in the P ARK or NEUTRAL position before you can start the engine.
3. The system takes over and attempts to start the vehicle. If the vehicle fails to start, the starter will disengage automatically after 10 seconds. 4. If you wish to stop the cranking of the engine prior to the engine starting, push the button again.
ENGINE ST AR T/STOP Button Functions — W ith Driver ’ s Foot OFF The Brake Pedal (In P ARK Or NEUTRAL Position) The ENGINE ST ART/ST OP button operates similar to an ignition switch.
2. Cycle the ignition in the ST ART position and release it when the engine starts. 3. If the engine fails to start within ten seconds, cycle the ignition to the STOP (OFF/LOCK) position, wait five seconds to allow the starter to cool, then repeat the Extended Park Starting procedur e.
CAUTION! T o prevent damage to the starter , do not continuously crank the engine for more than 25 seconds at a time. W ait 60 seconds before trying again.
3. Pull the cord to the front of the vehicle and plug it into a grounded, three-wir e extension cord. 4. After the vehicle is running, reattach the cord to the V elcro strap and properly stow away behind the driver ’s side headlamp. NOTE: • The engine block heater cord is a factory installed option.
CAUTION! Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal, or attempt to hold the vehicle on a hill with the clutch pedal partially engaged, as this will cause abnormal wear on the clutch. NOTE: During cold weather , you may experience in- creased effort in shifting until the transmission fluid warms up.

information). T oggling the shift lever rearwar d (+) or forward (-) while in the AutoStick® position (beside the DRIVE position) will manually select the transmission gear , and will display the current gear in the instrument cluster as 1, 2, 3, etc.
Gear Ranges DO NOT race the engine when shifting from P ARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range. NOTE: After selecting any gear range, wait a moment to allow the selected gear to engage before accelerating. This is especially important when the engine is cold.
W ARNING! (Continued) • It is dangerous to shift out of P ARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly forward or in re- verse. Y ou could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or something.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift lever .
• Look at the transmission gear position display and verify that it indicates the P ARK position. • W ith brake pedal released, verify that the shift lever will not move out of P ARK. REVERSE (R) This range is for moving the vehicle backward. Shift into REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
DRIVE (D) This range should be used for most city and highway driving. It provides the smoothest upshifts and down- shifts, and the best fuel economy . The transmission automatically upshifts through all forward gears. The DRIVE position provides optimum driving characteris- tics under all normal operating conditions.
• When stopped on an incline, always use the brakes to hold the vehicle in place. On steep inclines, Hill Start Assist (HSA) will temporarily hold the car in position when the brake pedal is r eleased. If the accelerator pedal is not applied after a short time, the car will roll back.
Instrument Cluster Messages Messages will be displayed in the instrument cluster to alert the driver when certain unusual conditions occur . These messages are described below . MESSAGE DESCRIPTION GEAR NOT A V AILABLE In AutoStick® mode, the gear selected by the driver is not available due to a fault condition.
MESSAGE DESCRIPTION SHIFT TO NEUTRAL – THEN D or R The transmission has shifted itself into NEUTRAL (due to a fault condition, or over- heat due to excessive idling when stopped in DRIVE with the brakes released), but the shift lever remains in gear .
MESSAGE DESCRIPTION TRANS. HOT STOP SAFEL Y SHIFT TO P The transmission driving clutch has overheated. Pull over , shift the transmission into P ARK, and allow the vehicle to cool until “TRANS. COOL READY TO DRIVE” is displayed. SER VICE TRANSMIS- SION A transmission fault has been detected.
In the event of a momentary problem, the transmission can be reset to regain all forward gears by performing the following steps: 1. Stop the vehicle. 2. Shift the transmission into P ARK. 3. T urn the ignition switch to the OFF position. 4. W ait approximately 10 seconds.
Only shift from DRIVE to P ARK or REVERSE when the accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle is stopped. Be sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when shifting between these gears. The transmission shift lever has P ARK, REVERSE, NEU- TRAL, DRIVE, and AutoStick® (+/-) shift positions.
the transmission locking mechanism may make it diffi- cult to move the shift lever out of P ARK. As an added precaution, turn the front wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb on an uphill grade. W ARNING! • Never use the P ARK position as a substitute for the parking brake.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is running. Before exiting a vehicle, always apply the parking brake, shift the transmission into P ARK, turn the engine OFF , and remove the Key Fob.
CAUTION! • Before moving the shift lever out of P ARK, you must turn the ignition switch from the LOCK/OFF position to the ON/RUN position, and also press the brake pedal. Otherwise, damage to the shift lever could result. • DO NOT race the engine when shifting from P ARK or NEUTRAL into another gear range, as this can damage the drivetrain.
W ARNING! Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn off the ignition to coast down a hill. These are unsafe practices that limit your response to changing traffic or road conditions.
If the transmission temperature exceeds normal operat- ing limits, the transmission controller will modify the transmission shift schedule and expand the range of torque converter clutch engagement. This is done to prevent transmission damage due to overheating.
6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the problem is no longer detected, the transmission will return to normal operation. NOTE: Even if the transmission can be reset, we recom- mend that you visit your authorized dealer at your earliest possible convenience.
NOTE: Engagement of the torque converter clutch is inhibited at very cold temperatures. Because the engine speed is higher when the torque converter clutch is not engaged, it may seem as if the transmission is not shifting into Overdrive when cold. This is normal.
• For GT models, the transmission will remain in the selected gear even when maximum engine speed is reached. The transmission will upshift only when commanded by the driver . Engine overspeed protec- tion is provided by the engine controls. • The transmission will automatically downshift to first gear when coming to a stop.
DRIVING ON SLIPPER Y SURF ACES Acceleration Rapid acceleration on snow covered, wet, or other slip- pery surfaces may cause the driving wheels to pull erratically to the right or left. This phenomenon occurs when there is a differ ence in the surface traction under the front (driving) wheels.
DRIVING THROUGH W A TER Driving through water more than a few inches/ centimeters deep will requir e extra caution to ensure safety and prevent damage to your vehicle. Flowing/Rising W ater W ARNING! Do not drive on or across a road or path where water is flowing and/or rising (as in storm run-off).
CAUTION! • 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. • Determine the condition of the road or the path that is under water and if there are any obstacles in the way before driving through the standing water .
P ARKING BRAKE Before leaving the vehicle, make sure that the parking brake is fully applied. Also, be certain to leave an automatic transmission in P ARK, or manual transmission in REVERSE or first gear . The parking brake lever is located in the center console.
wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb on an uphill grade. For vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission, apply the parking brake before placing the shift lever in P ARK, otherwise the load on the transmission locking mecha- nism may make it difficult to move the shift lever out of P ARK.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Always fully apply the parking brake when leav- ing your vehicle, or it may roll and cause damage or injury . Also be certain to leave the transmission in P ARK. Failure to do so may allow the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury .
W ARNING! • Riding the brakes can lead to brake failure and possibly a collision. Driving with your foot resting or riding on the brake pedal can result in abnor- mally high brake temperatures, excessive lining wear , and possible brake damage. Y ou would not have your full braking capacity in an emergency .
If the “SER VICE POWER STEERING # OR # POWER STEERING ASSIST OFF - SER VICE SYSTEM” message and a steering wheel icon are displayed on the EVIC/DID screen, it indi- cates that the vehicle needs to be taken to the dealer for service. It is likely the vehicle has lost power steering assistance.
(ESC). These systems work together to enhance both vehicle stability and control in various driving condi- tions. Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) provides increased vehicle stability and brake performance under most braking conditions.
W ARNING! • The ABS contains sophisticated electronic equip- ment that may be susceptible to interference caused by improperly installed or high output radio transmitting equipment. This interference can cause possible loss of anti-lock braking capa- bility .
Anti-Lock Brake W arning Light The “Anti-Lock Brake W arning Light” moni- tors the ABS. The light will turn on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position and may stay on for as long as four seconds.
W ARNING! BAS cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. BAS cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning.
ERM can only reduce the chance of wheel lift occurring during severe or evasive driving maneuvers. It cannot prevent wheel lift due to other factors, such as road conditions, leaving the roadway , or striking objects or other vehicles.
W ARNING! • TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying. Always use caution when towing a trailer and follow the tongue weight recommendations. Refer to ”V ehicle Loading” and “T railer T owing” in “Starting and Operating” for further information.
5. Engage park brake. 6. Start engine and wait for ESC OFF lamp to turn off. 7. Apply brake pedal. 8. T urn steering wheel 200 degrees counter clockwise, just over half a turn from center position.
W ARNING! There may be situations on minor hills 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 brak- ing the vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Failure to follow these warnings may cause the vehicle to roll down the incline and could collide with another vehicle, object or person, and cause serious or fatal injury . Always remember to use the parking brake while parking on a hill and that the driver is responsible for braking the vehicle.
W ARNING! Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. ESC cannot prevent accidents, in- cluding those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro- planing.

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 can cause steering prob- lems. Y ou could lose control of your vehicle. • Unequal tire pressures from one side of the vehicle to the other can cause the vehicle to drift to the right or left. • Always drive with each tire inflated to the recom- mended cold tire inflation pressure.
Tire Inflation Pressures The proper cold tire inflation pressur e is listed on the driver’s side B-Pillar or rear edge of the driver’s side door . At least once a month: • Check and adjust tir e pressur e with a good quality pocket-type pressur e gauge.
inflation pressur e should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition. T ire pressure may increase from 2 to 6 psi (13 to 40 kPa) during operation. DO NOT reduce this normal pressure build up or your tire pressur e will be too low .
T ire Repair If your tire becomes damaged, it may be repaired if it meets the following criteria: • The tire has not been driven on when flat. • The damage is only on the tread section of your tire (sidewall damage is not repairable). • The puncture is no greater than ¼ # (6 mm).
Summer tires do not contain the all season designation or mountain/snowflake symbol on the tire sidewall. Use summer tires only in sets of four; failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your vehicle. W ARNING! Do not use summer tires in snow/ice conditions.
While studded tires improve performance on ice, skid and traction capability on wet or dry surfaces may be poorer than that of non-studded tires. Some states pro- hibit studded tires; therefor e, local laws should be checked before using these tire types.
equipment tire and wheel found on the front or rear axle of your vehicle. This spare tire may be used in the tire rotation for your vehicle. If your vehicle has this option, refer to an authorized tire dealer for the recommended tire rotation pattern.
Full Size Spare — If Equipped The full size spare is for temporary emergency use only . This tire may look like the originally equipped tire on the front or rear axle of your vehicle, but it is not.
Tire Spinning When stuck in mud, sand, snow , or ice conditions, do not spin your vehicle’s wheels above 30 mph (48 km/h) or for longer than 30 seconds continuously without stop- ping. Refer to “Freeing A Stuck V ehicle” in “What T o Do In Emergencies” for further information.
These indicators are molded into the bottom of the tread grooves. They will appear as bands when the tread depth becomes 1/16” (2 mm). When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the tire should be replaced. Refer to “Replacement T ires” in this section for further infor- mation.
Replacement Tires The tires on your new vehicle provide a balance of many characteristics. They should be inspected regularly for wear and correct cold tire inflation pressur es. The manu- facturer strongly recommends that you use tires equiva- lent to the originals in size, quality and performance when replacement is needed.
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.
• Install on Front T ires • Due to limited clearance, • For a 205/55R16 the 12 mm Diamond T ir e Chain with Ratchet T ensioning Device from tirechain.com is rec- ommended. • For a 225/45R17 either the Peerless Auto-T rac or Thule CG-9 snow chain is recommended.
CAUTION! (Continued) • Observe the traction device manufacturer ’ s instruc- tions on the method of installation, operating speed, and conditions for use. Always use the suggested operating speed of the device manufac- turer ’ s if it is less than 30 mph (48 km/h).
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) The T ir e Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) will warn the driver of a low tire pressur e based on the vehicle recom- mended cold placard pressur e. The tire pressure will vary with temperature by about 1 psi (7.0 kPa) for every 12°F (6.
also increase as the vehicle is driven - this is normal and there should be no adjustment for this increased pres- sure. The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressur e if the tire pressur e falls below the low-pressure warning limit for any reason, including low temperature effects, or natural pressur e loss through the tire.
CAUTION! • The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system op- eration or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.
Under-inflation also r educes fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability . • The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire mainte- nance, and it.

T railer Sway Control The trailer sway control is a telescoping link that can be installed between the hitch receiver and the trailer tongue that typically provides adjustable friction associated with the telescoping motion to dampen any unwanted trailer swaying motions while traveling.
T railer Hitch Classification The following chart provides the industry standard 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.
T railer T owing Weights (Maximum T railer Weight Ratings) The following chart provides the maximum trailer weight ratings towable for your given drivetrain. 1.4L T urbo Engine T railer towing is not recommended. Engine/T ransmission Frontal Area Max.
T railer And T ongue Weight Always load a trailer with 60% to 65% of the weight in the front of the trailer . This places 10% to 15% of the GTW on the tow hitch of your vehicle. Loads balanced over the wheels or heavier in the rear can cause the trailer to sway severely from side-to-side which will cause loss of con- trol of vehicle and trailer .
NOTE: Remember that everything put into or on the trailer adds to the load on your vehicle. Also, additional factory-installed options, or dealer -installed options, must be considered as part of the total load on your vehicle.
W ARNING! Improper towing can lead to a collision. Follow these guidelines to make your trailer towing as safe as possible: • Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and will not shift during travel. When trailering cargo that is not fully secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that may be dif ficult for the driver to control.
W ARNING! (Continued) • T otal weight must be distributed between the tow vehicle and the trailer such that the following four ratings are not exceeded: 1. GVWR 2. GTW 3. GA WR 4. T ongue weight rating for the trailer hitch uti- lized. T owing Requirements — T ires • Do not attempt to tow a trailer while using a compact spare tire.
T owing Requirements — T railer Brakes • Do not interconnect the hydraulic brake system or vacuum system of your vehicle with that of the trailer . This could cause inadequate braking and possible personal injury . • An electronically actuated trailer brake controller is requir ed when towing a trailer with electronically actuated brakes.
T owing Requirements — T railer Lights And Wiring Whenever you pull a trailer , regardless of the trailer size, stop lights and turn signals on the trailer are required for motoring safety . The T railer T ow Package may include a four-pin and seven-pin wiring harness.
T owing Tips Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping and backing the trailer in an area away from heavy traffic. Manual T ransmission — If Equipped If using a manual transmission vehicle for trailer towing, all starts must be in first gear to avoid excessive clutch slippage.
If you REGULARL Y tow a trailer for more than 45 minutes of continuous operation, then change the transmission fluid and filter as specified for severe usage (police, fleet, taxi, or frequent trailer towing). Refer to the # Maintenance Schedule # for the proper maintenance intervals.
