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.
OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the r estraint systems: • Three-point lap and shoulder belts for the driver and all passengers • Advanced Front .
W ARNING! In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buckled up. Y ou can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are buckled up properly .
W ARNING! • It is 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.
2. The seat belt latch plate is above the back of your seat. Grasp the latch plate and pull out the belt. Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to make the belt go around your lap. 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. Always buckle your belt into the buckle nearest you. • A belt that is too loose will not protect you properly .
4. Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. T o remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. T o loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a collision.
6. T o release the belt, push the r ed button on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary , slide the latch plate down the webbing to allow the belt to retract fully . W ARNING! A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection.
As a guide, if you are shorter than average you will prefer a lower position, and if you ar e taller than average you will prefer a higher position. When you r elease the anchorage try to move it up and down to make sure that it is locked in position.
How T o Engage The Automatic Locking Mode 1. Buckle the combination lap and shoulder belt. 2. Grasp the shoulder portion and pull downward until the entire belt is extracted. 3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound.
other occupants to buckle their seat belts. Once the warning is triggered, BeltAlert 威 will continue to chime and flash the Seat Belt Reminder Light for 96 seconds or until the driver ’s or front passenger ’s seat belt is buckled.
3. W ithin 60 seconds of turning the ignition switch to the ON position, unbuckle and then re-buckle the driver’s seat belt at least three times within 10 seconds, ending with the seat belt buckled. NOTE: W atch for the Seat Belt Reminder Light to turn on while unbuckling the seat belt and turn off while re-buckling the seat belt.
W ARNING! Using a seat belt extender when not needed can increase the risk of injury in a collision. Only use when the seat belt is not long enough when it is worn low and snug and in the recommended seating posi- tions. Remove and store the extender when not needed.
The Advanced Fr ont 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.
• 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.
Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC) — If Equipped SABIC airbags may offer side-impact and vehicle r ollover protection to fr ont and rear seat outboar d occupants in addition to that provided by the body str ucture.
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.
If the airbag system in this vehicle needs to be modified to accommodate a disabled person, contact the Customer Center . Phone numbers are pr ovided under ⬙ If Y ou Need Assistance”. W ARNING! • Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.
Advanced Front Airbags ar e designed to provide addi- tional protection by supplementing the seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending on the severity and type of collision. Advanced Front Airbags are not ex- pected to reduce the risk of injury in r ear , side, or rollover collisions.
Also, the ORC turns on the Airbag W arning Light in the instrument panel for appr oxi- mately six to eight seconds for a self-check when the ignition is first turned on.
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. The airbags then quickly deflate while helping to restrain the driver and fr ont passenger .
Enhanced Accident Response System In the event of an impact causing airbag deployment, if the communication network remains intact, and the power remains intact, depending on the natur e of the event the ORC will determine whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the follow- ing functions: • Cut off fuel to the engine.
airbag inflation. These airborne particles may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye irritation, rinse the area with cool water . For nose or throat irritation, move to fr esh air . If the irritation continues, see your doctor .
W ARNING! (Continued) • Do not attempt to modify any part of your ad- vanced airbag system. The airbag may inflate accidentally or may not function properly if modi- fications are made. T ake your vehicle to an autho- rized dealer for any advanced airbag system ser- vice.
check the fuse block for blown fuses. Refer to the label located on the inside of the fuse block cover for the proper airbag fuses. See your authorized dealer if the fuse is good.
In the event that an investigation is undertaken by Chrysler Group LLC (r egardless of initiative), the com- pany or its designated repr esentative will first obtain permission of the appropriate cust.
• Pedal position • And other parameters depending on vehicle configuration Child Restraints Everyone in your vehicle needs to be buckled up all the time, including babies and children. Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces r equire that small children ride in pr oper restraint systems.
Infants and Child Restraints • Safety experts recommend that childr en ride rearwar d-facing in the vehicle until they are at least one year old and weigh at least 20 lbs (9 kg). T wo types of child restraints can be used r earward-facing, infant carriers and convertible child seats.
restraint anchorage system. Refer to “LA TCH — Child Seat Anchorage System (Lower Anchors and T ether for CHildren)”. The belt-positioning booster seat is for children weighing more than 40 lbs (18 kg), but who ar e still too small to fit the vehicle’s seat belts properly .
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. Follow the manufacturer’s directions ex- actly when installing an infant or child restraint.
• When your child restraint is not in use, secur e it in the vehicle with the seat belt or remove it fr om the vehicle. Do not leave it loose in the vehicle. In a sudden stop or collision, it could strike the occupants or seatbacks and cause serious personal injury .
All three r ear-seating positions have lower anchorages that are capable of accommodating LA TCH-compatible child seats. Y ou should NEVER install LA TCH- compatible child seats so that two seats share a common lower anchorage.
Again, carefully follow the installation instr uctions that are pr ovided with the child restraint system. The rear seat lower anchorages ar e round bars located at the rear of the seat cushion wher e it meets the seatback and are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint.
NOTE: • Ensure that the tether strap does not slip into the opening between the seatbacks as you remove slack in the strap. • When using the LA TCH attaching system to install a child restraint, please ensur e that all seat belts not being used for occupant restraints ar e stowed and out of reach of childr en.
The seat belt must be in the Automatic Locking Mode in order to enable a child r estraint to be tightly installed. Refer to “Automatic Locking Mode”. A locking clip should not be necessary once the automatic locking feature is enabled. Position the shoulder and lap belt on the child restraint.
T o attach a child restraint tether strap: 1. Rotate the cover over the anchor directly behind the seat where you ar e placing the child restraint. 2. Route the tether strap to provide the most dir ect path for the strap between the anchor and the child seat.
T ransporting Pets Airbags deploying in the front seat could harm your pet. An unrestrained pet will be thr own about and possibly injured, or injur e a passenger during panic braking or in a collision. Pets should be restrained in the r ear seat in pet harnesses or pet carriers that are secur ed by seat belts.
W ARNING! • Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather . Interior heat build-up may cause serious injury or death. • It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be seri- ously injured or killed.
If you are r equired to drive with the tr unk/liftgate open, make sure that all windows ar e closed and the climate control BLOWER switch is set at high speed. DO NOT use the recir culation mode. The best protection against carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle body is a properly maintained engine exhaust system.
Defroster Check operation by selecting the defrost mode and place the blower control on high speed. Y ou should be able to feel the air directed against the windshield. See your authorized dealer for service if your defroster is inoperable. Floor Mat Safety Information Always use floor mats designed to fit the foot well of your vehicle.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Check mounting of mats on a regular basis. Al- ways properly reinstall and secure floor mats that have been removed for cleaning. • Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot well while the vehicle is moving.
Door Latches Check for positive closing, latching, and locking. Fluid Leaks Check area under vehicle after overnight parking for fuel, engine coolant, oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gasoline fumes are detected or if fuel, power steering fluid, or brake fluid leaks are suspected, the cause should be located and corrected immediately .

Remember to disconnect the cord before driving. Damage to the 1 10-1 15 V olt electrical cord could cause electrocution.
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 the DRIVE position. After the transmission cools down, it will return to normal operation.
4. Using the screwdriver , press and hold the override tab through the access port on the center console. 5. Move the shift lever into the NEUTRAL position.
Gear Ranges P ARK This range supplements the parking brake by locking the transmission. The engine can be started in this range. Never use P ARK while the vehicle is in motion.
The following indicators should be used to ensure that you have engaged the shift lever in the P ARK position: • When shifting into P ARK move the shift lever all the way forward and left until it stops and is fully seated. • Look at the shift indicator display on the instrument panel to ensure it is in the P ARK position.
“D” (Overdrive) This range is used for most city and highway driving. It provides the smoothest up shifts and down shifts and the best fuel economy .
occur only to prevent engine overspeed while downshifts occur earlier than in other gear range selections. CAUTION! Never race the engine with the brakes on and the vehicle in gear , and never hold the vehicle on an incline without applying the brakes.
T ransmission Limp Home Mode The transmission is monitored for abnormal conditions. If a condition is detected that could cause damage, the transmission automatically shifts into second gear . The transmission remains in second gear despite the forwar d gear selected.
Five-Speed Automatic T ransmission – If Equipped Shifting from DRIVE to P ARK or REVERSE should be done only after the accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle is stopped. Be sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when moving the shift lever between these gears.
W ARNING! Never use the P ARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury or damage.
CAUTION! Coasting the vehicle or driving for any other reason with shift lever in NEUTRAL can result in transmis- sion damage. W ARNING! Do not coast in NEUTRAL and never turn of f the ignition to coast down a hill. These are unsafe practices that limit your response to changing traffic or road conditions.
If vehicle acceleration worsens, or the transmission no longer shifts, the transmission is most likely operating in the Limp Home Mode. In this mode, the transmission will remain in the curr ent gear until the vehicle is brought to a stop. After the vehicle has stopped, P ARK, REVERSE, and NEUTRAL will continue to operate.
Electronic Range Select (ERS) – If Equipped Electronic Range Select (ERS) allows the driver to limit the highest available transmission gear , providing you with more contr ol of the vehicle. ERS allows you to maximize engine braking, eliminate undesirable upshifts, and improve overall vehicle performance.
move the shift lever to the right or left (D+/D-) while in the DRIVE position. The gear position will display in the instrument cluster . In the AutoStick 威 mode, the transmis- sion will shift up and down when left or right (D-/D+) is manually selected by the driver .
vehicle automatically shifts into A WD mode. Automatic A WD operation could be activated by outside tempera- ture, wheel slip, or other pr edetermined conditions (there may be a slight delay for A WD engagement after a wheel slip condition occurs).
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.
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). Flow- ing water can wear away the road or path’s surface and cause your vehicle to sink into deeper water . Furthermore, flowing and/or rising water can carry your vehicle away swiftly .
CAUTION! (Continued) • Driving through standing water may cause dam- age to your vehicle’ s drivetrain components. Al- ways inspect your vehicle’ s fluids (i.e., engine oil, transmission, axle, etc.) for signs of contamination (i.e., fluid that is milky or foamy in appearance) after driving through standing water .
POWER STEERING The standard power steering system will give you good vehicle response and incr eased ease of maneuverability in tight spaces. The system will provide mechanical steering capability if power assist is lost. If for some reason the power assist is interr upted, it will still be possible to steer your vehicle.
checked if a leak is suspected, abnormal noises are apparent, and/or the system is not functioning as antici- pated. Coordinate inspection ef forts through an autho- rized dealer . CAUTION! Do not use chemical flushes in your power steering system as the chemicals can damage your power steering components.
The foot operated parking brake is located below the lower left corner of the instrument panel. T o apply the park brake, firmly push the park brake pedal fully . T o release the parking brake, pr ess the park brake pedal a second time and let your foot up as you feel the brake disengage.
make it difficult to move the shift lever out of P ARK. The parking brake should always be applied whenever the driver is not in the vehicle. 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.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) provides incr eased vehicle stability and brake performance under most braking conditions. The system automatically “pumps” the brakes during severe braking conditions to pr event wheel lock-up.
W ARNING! • The ABS contains sophisticated electronic equip- ment that may be susceptible to interference caused by improperly installed or high output radio transmitting equipment. This interference can cause possible loss of anti-lock braking capa- bility .
ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM Y our vehicle is equipped with an advanced electronic brake control system that include Anti-Lock Brake Sys- tem (ABS), T raction Control System (TCS), Brake Assist System (BAS), and the Electronic Stability Pr ogram (ESP).
Brake Assist System (BAS) This system complements the ABS by optimizing the vehicle braking capability during emergency brake ma- neuvers. This system detects an emergency braking situ- ation by sensing the rate and amount of brake application and then applies optimum pressur e to the brakes.
power may also be reduced to assist in counteracting the condition of oversteer or understeer and help the vehicle maintain the desired path. The ESP uses sensors in the vehicle to determine the path that the driver intends to steer the vehicle and compares it to the actual path of the vehicle.
The ESP system has two available operating modes: ESP On This is the normal operating mode for the ESP . Whenever the vehicle is started, the ESP system will be in this mode. This mode should be used for most driving conditions. The ESP should only be turned OFF for specific r easons as noted in the following paragraphs.
Indicator Light” should go out. However , if the light remains on, have the ESP and BAS checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible. ESP/BAS Malfunction Indicator Light and ESP/TCS Indicator Light The Malfunction Indicator Light for the ESP is combined with the BAS indicator .
TIRE SAFETY INFORMA TION Tire Markings 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.
T ires designed to this standard have the letter “T” molded into the sidewall preceding the size designa- tion. Example: T145/80D18 103M. • High flotation tire sizing is based on U.S. design standards and it begins with the tir e diameter molded into the sidewall.
EXAMPLE: Service Description: 95 = Load Index — A numerical code associated with the maximum load a tire can carry H = Speed Symbol — A symbol indicating the range of speeds at which a tire can ca.
Tire Identification Number (TIN) The TIN may be found on one or both sides of the tire, however , the date code may only be on one side. T ires with white sidewalls will have the full TIN, including the date code, located on the white sidewall side of the tire.
Tire T erminology and Definitions T erm Definition B-Pillar The vehicle B-Pillar is a structural member of the body located between the front and r ear door (of a four-door vehicle) r unning from the sill to the r oof.

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.
4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity . For example, if “XXX” amount equals 1,400 lbs (635 kg) and there will be five 150 lb (68 kg) passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs (295 kg) (since 5 x 150 = 750, and 1400 – 750 = 650 lbs [295 kg]).
5 ST ARTING AND OPERA TING 305.
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 ar e 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! T emporary use spare tires are for emergency use only . W ith these tires, do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h). T emporary use spare tires have limited tread life. When the tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the temporary use spare tire needs to be replaced.
W ARNING! The limited-use spare tires are for emergency use only . Installation of this limited-use spare tire affects vehicle handling. W ith this tire, do not drive more than 50 mph (80 km/h). Keep inflated to the cold tire inflation pressure listed on either your tire placard or limited-use spare tire and wheel assembly .
T read Wear Indicators T read wear indicators are in the original equipment tir es to help you in determining when your tires should be replaced. These indicators are molded into the bottom of the tr ead grooves. They will appear as bands when the tr ead depth becomes 1/16 in (2 mm).
Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as little exposure to light as possible. Pr otect tires fr om contact with oil, grease, and gasoline. Replacement Tires The tires on your new vehicle pr ovide a balance of many characteristics. They should be inspected regularly for wear and correct cold tir e inflation pressur e.
W ARNING! (Continued) • Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire failure and loss of vehicle control. CAUTION! Replacing original tires with tires of a different size may result in false speedometer and odometer read- ings.
These effects can be r educed by timely rotation of tir es. The benefits of rotation ar e especially worthwhile with aggressive tr ead designs such as those on all season type tires. Rotation will incr ease tread life, help to maintain mud, snow and wet traction levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride.
The tire pr essure will vary with temperatur e by about 1 psi (6.9 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C). This means that when the outside temperature decr eases, the tire pr essure will decrease. T ire pr essure should always be set based on cold inflation tire pr essure.
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 matching full size spare wheel and tir e assembly (if equipped) has a TPM sensor . The matching full size spare can be used in place of any of the four road tir es. The TPMS will only monitor the pressur e in the full size spare when it is used in place of a road tir e.
3. Accumulation of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings. 4. Using tire chains on the vehicle. 5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPM sensors. V ehicles with Full Size Spare 1. The matching full size spare wheel and tire assembly has a TPM sensor that can be monitored by the TPMS.
5. Once you repair or replace the original r oad tire, and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the compact spar e, the TPMS will update automatically and the TPM T elltale Light will turn OFF , as long as no tire pressur e is below the low-pressur e warning limit in any of the four active road tir es.
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 mor e of the four active road tir es.
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 electronic 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.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (25 km/h), the TPM T elltale Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds and then r emain on solid. In addition, the EVIC will display a ⬙ CHECK TPM SYS- TEM ⬙ message for three seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressur e value.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS 2.7L Engine The 2.7L engine is designed to meet all emissions regulations and pr ovide excel- lent fuel economy and performance when using high-quality unleaded “regular” gasoline having an octane rating of 87.
Reformulated Gasoline Many areas of the country r equire the use of cleaner burning gasoline referr ed to as “Reformulated Gasoline.” Reformulated gasoline contains oxygenates and are spe- cifically blended to reduce vehicle emissions and im- prove air quality .
If a Non-FFV vehicle is inadvertently fueled with E85 fuel, the engine will have some or all of these symptoms: • operate in a lean mode • OBD II “Malfunction Indicator Light” on • poor engi.
Materials Added to Fuel All gasoline sold in the United States is requir ed to contain effective deter gent additives. Use of additional detergents or other additives is not needed under normal conditions and they would result in additional cost. Therefor e, you should not have to add anything to the fuel.
Carbon Monoxide W arnings W ARNING! Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is deadly . Follow the precautions below to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning: • Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas, which can kill.
NOTE: When removing the fuel filler cap, lay the cap tether in the hook, located on the fuel filler cap door reinfor cement. CAUTION! • Damage to the fuel system or emissions control system could result from using an improper fuel tank filler tube cap (gas cap).
CAUTION! (Continued) • 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. • T o avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top off” the fuel tank after filling.
”gASCAP” message will appear in the odometer or a “Check Gascap” message will display in the Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC) (if equipped). If this occurs, tighten the fuel filler cap properly and pr ess the TRIP ODOMETER button to turn of f the message.
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.

Frontal Area The frontal ar ea is the maximum height multiplied by the maximum width of the front of a trailer . T railer Sway Control The trailer sway control is a telescoping link that can be instal.
W ARNING! • An improperly adjusted weight distributing hitch system may reduce handling, stability , braking performance, and could result in an accident.
T railer T owing Weights (Maximum T railer Weight Ratings) The following chart provides the maximum trailer weight ratings towable for your given drivetrain. Engine/T ransmission Frontal Area Max. GTW (Gross T railer Wt.) Max. T ongue Wt. (See Note) 2.
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 Gross T railer W eight (GTW) on the tow hitch of your vehicle.
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! (Continued) • Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and it will not shift during travel. When trailering cargo that is not fully secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that may be difficult for the driver to control. Y ou could lose control of your vehicle and have an accident.

Windshield Wiper Blades Clean the rubber edges of the wiper blades and the windshield periodically with a sponge or soft cloth and a mild nonabrasive cleaner . This will remove accumula- tions of salt or road film. Operation of the wipers on dry glass for long periods may cause deterioration of the wiper blades.
The fluid reservoir will hold nearly 1 gal (4 L) of washer fluid when the message “Low W asher Fluid” appears in the Electronic V ehicle Information Center (EVIC) (if equipped). W ARNING! Commercially available windshield washer solvents are flammable.
W ARNING! (Continued) • 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 ve- hicle in areas where your exhaust system can contact anything that can burn.
NOTE: Intentional tampering with emissions control systems can result in civil penalties being assessed against you. In unusual situations involving grossly malfunctioning engine operation, a scorching odor may suggest sever e and abnormal catalyst overheating.
Coolant Checks Check engine coolant (antifreeze) pr otection every 12 months (before the onset of fr eezing weather , where applicable). If the engine coolant (antifreeze) is dirty or rusty in appearance, the system should be drained, flushed, and refilled with fr esh coolant.
CAUTION! • Mixing of engine coolant (antifreeze) other than specified HOA T engine coolant (antifreeze), may result in engine damage and may decrease corro- sion protection.
Please review these r ecommendations for using Hybrid Organic Additive T echnology (HOA T) engine coolant (antifreeze). When adding engine coolant (antifr eeze): • The manufacturer r ecommends using MOP AR 威 Antifreeze/Coolant 5 Y ear/100,000 Mile Formula HOA T (Hybrid Organic Additive T echnology) or equivalent.
W ARNING! • The warning words “DO NOT OPEN HOT” on the cooling system pressure cap are a safety pre- caution. Never add engine coolant (antifreeze) when the engine is overheated. Do not loosen or remove the cap to cool an overheated engine. Heat causes pressure to build up in the cooling system.
When additional engine coolant (antifreeze) is needed to maintain the proper level, it should be added to the coolant bottle. Do not overfill.
