A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS The keys for your new vehicle ar e enclosed in a plastic bag with the key code number on it. If you received your keys without the bag, ask your authorized dealer to give you the number . The key code can also be obtained by your authorized dealer from your vehicle invoice.
W ARNING! Leaving children in a vehicle unattended is danger- ous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be injured. Children should be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the gear selector lever . Don’t leave the keys in the ignition.
light will come on for 3 seconds immediately after the ignition switch is turned on for a bulb check. Afterwards, if the bulb remains on, this indicates a malfunction in the electronics. If the bulb begins to flash immediately after the ignition switch is turned on, this indicates that an invalid key is being used to start the vehicle.
Replacement Keys NOTE: Only keys that have been programmed to the vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once a Sentry Key has been pr ogrammed to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed to any other vehicle. At the time of pur chase, the original owner is provided with a four digit PIN number .
4. Insert a blank Sentry Key into the ignition switch and turn the ignition switch ON within 60 seconds. After 10 seconds, a single chime will sound. The SKIM indicator light will stop flashing, turn on for 3 seconds; then turn off. The new Sentry Key has been programmed.
the door lock plunger located on the inside of the doors or with the driver’s door key lock cylinder , will not set the alarm. T o Disarm the System T o disarm the system, use the r emote keyless entry transmitter . Also, using a valid sentry key and moving the ignition switch to the ON/ST AR T position will disarm the system.
NOTE: If the key is in the ignition switch, then all buttons on that transmitter will be disabled. The buttons on the remaining transmitters will work.
NOTE: If desired, the system can be pr ogrammed to unlock all doors on the first pr ess of the “Unlock” button. Refer to “Remote Unlock Driver’s Door 1st” in the Personal Settings section of the “Electronic V ehicle Infor- mation Center (EVIC)”, or simply follow these steps: 1.
W ARNING! Driving with the flipper glass open can allow poi- sonous exhaust gases into your vehicle. Y ou and your passengers could be injured by these fumes.
2. While the “Unlock” button is pr essed, (after 4 seconds) press the “Lock” button. Release both buttons. The “Flash Lights On Lock/Unlock” featur e can be reactivated by repeating this procedure. General Information This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and RSS 210 of Industry Canada.
1. W ith the transmitter buttons facing down, remove the small screw , and separate the two halves of the transmit- ter . Make sure not to damage the rubber gasket during removal. 2. Remove and replace the battery . A void touching the new battery with your fingers.
Once the vehicle has started, the engine will run for 15 minutes. T o cancel remote start, press the “Remote Start” button twice within two seconds. T o enter the vehicle while the engine is running during a remote start, you must first unlock the vehicle using the “Unlock” button on the key fob.
DOOR LOCKS Manual Door Locks Use the manual door lock plunger to lock the doors from inside the vehicle. If the plunger is down when the door is closed, the door will lock. Therefor e, make sure the keys are not inside the vehicle before closing the door .
If you pr ess the door lock switch while the keys are in the ignition switch, and the driver’s door is open, the doors will not lock. The rear doors cannot be opened from inside the vehicle until you pull up the lock plungers.
Child Protection Door Lock The r ear doors of your vehicle ar e equipped with child protection locks. If you push up on the lever on the open edge of the door it cannot be opened from the inside of the vehicle. Push the lever down to disengage the child protection locks.
WINDOWS Power Windows The power window contr ols are located on the driver’s door trim panel. There is a single switch on the fr ont passenger door/rear doors which operates the front passenger/rear passenger door windows. The window controls will operate only when the ignition switch is in the ON or ACCESSORY position.
Auto Down Both the driver and front passenger window switch has an “Auto Down” feature. Press the window switch past the first detent, release, and the window will go down automatically . T o cancel the “Auto Down” movement, operate the switch in either the up or down dir ection and release the switch.
W ARNING! There is no anti-pinch protection when the window is almost closed. Be sure to clear all objects from the window before closing. Resetting the Auto-Up Feature Should the Auto-Up feature stop working the window probably needs to be reset.
Wind Buffeting W ind buffeting can be described as the perception of pressur e on the ears or a helicopter type sound in the ears. Y our vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open or partially open positions.
W ARNING! Driving with the liftgate open can allow poisonous exhaust gases into your vehicle. Y ou and your pas- sengers could be injured by these fumes. Keep the liftgate closed when you are operating the vehicle. Liftgate Flipper Glass The liftgate flipper glass is also unlocked when the liftgate is unlocked.
Once the liftgate flipper glass has been opened, connec- tion to the rear window wiper is interrupted, preventing activation of the rear wiper blade while the flipper glass is open. NOTE: If a power malfunction to the power liftgate latch should occur , an emergency liftgate latch release can be used to open the liftgate.
W ARNING! In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer injuries, including fatalities, 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! • W earing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous. Seat belts are designed to go around the large bones of your body . These are the strongest parts of your body and can take the forces of a collision the best. W earing your belt in the wrong place could make your injuries in a collision much worse.
3. When the belt is long enough to fit, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.” Latch Plate Latch Plate T o Buckle THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE ST ARTING YOUR VEHICLE 37 2 I n f .
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 as well.
5. Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The r etractor will withdraw any slack in the belt. 6. T o release the belt, push the red button marked PRESS on the buckle. The belt will automatically retract to its stowed position.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage In the front seating positions, the shoulder belt can be adjusted upward or downward to position the belt away from your neck. Press the release button to release the anchorage, and then move it up or down to the position that serves you best.
3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This indicates the safety belt is now in the automatic locking mode.
NOTE: These devices ar e not a substitute for proper seat belt placement by the occupant. The seat belt must still be worn snugly and positioned properly . The pretensioners are triggered by the Occupant Re- straint Control (ORC) Module. Like the front airbags, the pretensioners are a single use item.
Driver And Front Passenger Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) This vehicle has airbags for both the driver and right front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver’s front airbag is mounted in the steering wheel. The passenger side airbag is mounted in the instrument panel, above the glove compartment.
NOTE: Airbag covers may not be obvious in the interior trim; but they will open to allow airbag deployment. W ARNING! • Do not put anything on or around the front airbag covers or attempt to manually open them. Y ou may damage the airbags and you could be injured because the airbags are no longer functional.
NOTE: Do not use a clothing bar mounted to the coat hooks in this vehicle. A clothing bar will impede the proper performance of the window bags. The front airbags have a multi stage inflator design. This allows the airbag to have different rates of inflation that are based on collision severity .
Children that are not big enough to properly wear the vehicle seat belt should be secured in the r ear seat, in a child restraint or belt-positioning booster seat. Older children who do not use child restraints or belt- positioning booster seats should ride properly buckled up in the rear seat.
W ARNING! • Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The airbags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly . In some collisions the airbags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have airbags.
• Driver and Front Passenger Seat Belt Pretensioners How The Airbag System W orks • The Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) Module de- termines if a fr ontal, side, or r ollover collision is sever e enough to r equire the front and/or side airbags to inflate.
• The Driver and Passenger Airbag/Inflator Units are located in the center of the steering wheel and the right side of the instrument panel. When the ORC detects a collision requiring the airbags, it signals the inflator units. A large quantity of nontoxic gas is generated to inflate the front airbags.
If A Deployment Occurs The airbag system is designed to deploy when the Occupant Restraint Control (ORC) Module detects a moderate-to-severe frontal collision, to help restrain the driver and front passenger , and then to immediately deflate. NOTE: A frontal collision that is not severe enough to need airbag protection will not activate the system.
W ARNING! Deployed airbags and seat belt pretensioners cannot protect you in another collision. Have the airbags, seat belt pretensioners, and seat belt retractor assem- bly , replaced by an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Airbag W arning Light Y ou will want to have the airbag system ready to inflate for your protection in an impact. The airbag system is designed to be maintenance free. If any of the following occurs, have an authorized dealer service the system promptly: • Does not come on during the 6 to 8 seconds after the ignition switch is first turned on.
provided to the custodial entity upon request. General data that does not identify particular vehicles or crashes may be released for incorporation in aggregate crash databases, such as those maintained by the US govern- ment and various states.
Child Restraint Everyone in your vehicle needs to be buckled up all the time — babies and children, too. Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces requir e that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law , and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
• The infant carrier is only used rearward-facing in the vehicle. It is recommended for children who weigh up to about 20 lbs (9 kg). “Convertible” child seats often have a higher weight limit i.
Standards. The manufacturer also r ecommends that you try a child restraint in the vehicle seats where you will use it before you buy it. • The restraint must be appropriate for your child’s weight and height. Check the label on the restraint for weight and height limits.
• If the belt still cannot be tightened, or if pulling and pushing on the restraint loosens the belt, disconnect the latch plate from the buckle, turn the buckle around, and insert the latch plate into the buckle again. If you still cannot make the child restraint secure, try a different seating position.
Children T oo Large for Booster Seats Children who are large enough to wear the shoulder belt comfortably , and whose legs are long enough to bend over the fr ont of the seat when their back is against the seat back, should use the lap/shoulder belt in a rear seat.
kits or r etro-fit kits. Y ou are ur ged to take advantage of all the available attachments pr ovided with your child re- straint in any vehicle. NOTE: When using the LA TCH attaching system to install a child restraint, please ensure that all seat belts not being used for occupant restraints ar e stowed and out of reach of children.
Installing the LA TCH-Compatible Child Restraint System W e urge that you carefully follow the directions of the manufacturer when installing your child r estraint. Not all child r estraint systems will be installed as described her e. Again, carefully follow the installation instr uctions that were provided with the child restraint system.
In addition, there ar e tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located on the back of the seat. Many , but not all restraint systems will be equipped with separate straps on each side, with each having a hook or connector for attachment to the lower anchorage and a means of adjusting the tension in the strap.
W ARNING! Improper installation of a child restraint to the LA TCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint.
If the belt still can’t be tightened, or if by pulling and pushing on the restraint loosens the belt, you may need to do something more. Disconnect the latch plate from the buckle, turn the buckle around, and insert the latch plate into the buckle again.
T ransporting Pets Airbags deploying in the front seat could harm your pet. An unr estrained pet will be thrown about and possibly injured, or injure a passenger during panic braking or in a collision. Pets should be r estrained in the rear seat in pet harnesses or pet carriers that are secur ed by seat belts.
SAFETY TIPS Exhaust Gas W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO) which is colorless and odorless. Breath- ing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you. T o avoid breathing (CO) follow the safety tips below .
Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after an accident if they have been damaged (bent retractor , torn webbing, etc.). If ther e is any question regar ding belt or retractor condition, replace the belt. Airbag W arning Light The light should come on and remain on for 6 to 8 seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first turned on.

NOTE: When driving uphill, at elevations above 2,000 feet (610 meters), or when the vehicle is heavily loaded (especially when towing) the vehicle may slow below the SET speed.
W ARNING! T o help keep your vehicle under control, do not use Speed Control under these conditions: • When it is not possible to keep your vehicle at a set speed. • On slippery roads, such as on snow or ice. • In heavy or varying traf fic volume, in traf fic that varies in speed, or on winding roads.
W ARNING! ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction af forded by prevail- ing road conditions. ABS cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydro- planing.
BAS (Brake Assist System) The BAS is designed to optimize the vehicle’s braking capability during emergency braking maneuvers. The system detects an emergency braking situation by sens- ing the rate and amount of brake application and then applies optimum pressur e to the brakes.
ERM (Electronic Roll Mitigation) This system anticipates the potential for wheel lift by monitoring the driver ’s steering wheel input and the speed of the vehicle.
ESP (Electronic Stability Program) This system enhances directional control and stability of the vehicle under various driving conditions. ESP cor - rects for over/under steering of the vehicle by applying the brake of the appr opriate wheel to assist in counter- acting the over/under steer condition.
W ARNING! ESP (Electronic Stability Program) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. ESP cannot prevent acci- dents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning.
or gravel conditions and more wheel spin than ESP would normally allow is r equired to gain traction. T o turn ESP on again, momentarily depr ess the ⬙ ESP Contr ol Switch ⬙ .
In this mode, ESP and TCS, except for the “limited slip” feature described in the TCS section, are turned off until the vehicle r eaches a speed of 40 mph (64 km/h). At 40 mph (64 km/h) the system returns to “Partial Of f” mode, described above.
40 mph (64 km/h). At 40 mph (64 km/h), the normal ESP stability function returns but TCS remains off. When the vehicle speed drops below 35 mph (56 km/h), the ESP system shuts off.
If the “ESP/BAS W arning Lamp” comes on continuously with the engine running, a mal- function has been detected in either the ESP or the BAS system, or both.
Rear Park Assist Sensors The four Rear Park Assist Sensors, located in the rear fascia, monitor the area behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view . The monitored area seems oval in shape. The sensors can detect obstacles from approximately 1 1.
When the obstacle is detected at a distance of about 59 inches (150 cm) from the rear fascia, the outermost LEDs of the warning display will be ON with increased bright- ness. Along with the LED, a half second tone will occur . As the distance of the detected obstacle to the rear fascia decreases, mor e LEDs ar e illuminated.

operation is similar . Follow the Quadra-T rac II 威 transfer case shifting information, preceding this section, for shifting this system. ON-ROAD DRIVING TIPS Utility vehicles have higher ground clearance and a narrower track to make them capable of performing in a wide variety of off-r oad applications.
CAUTION! When driving through water , do not exceed 5 mph (8 km/h). Always check water depth before entering as a precaution, and check all fluids afterward. Driving through water may cause damage that may not be covered by the new vehicle limited warranty .
Driving In Snow , Mud and Sand In heavy snow , when pulling a load, or for additional control at slower speeds, shift the transmission to a low gear and shift the transfer case to 4WD LOW if necessary . Refer to “Four-Wheel Drive Operation” in this section.
Remember , never drive diagonally across a hill-always drive straight up or down. If the wheels start to slip as you approach the crest of a hill, ease of f the accelerator and maintain headway by turning the fr ont wheels slowly . This may pr ovide a fresh “bite” into the surface and will usually pr ovide traction to complete the climb.
• After extended operation in mud, sand, water , or similar dirty conditions, have brake rotors, wheels, brake linings, and axle yokes inspected and cleaned as soon as possible. W ARNING! Abrasive material in any part of the brakes may cause excessive wear or unpredictable braking.
Be sure the parking brake is firmly set when parked and the gear shift lever is in the P (Park) position. When parking on a hill, you should apply the parking brake before placing the gear shift lever in P (Park), otherwise the load on the transmission locking mechanism may make it difficult to move the selector out of P (Park).
When parking on a hill, turn the front wheels toward the curb on a downhill grade and away from the curb on an uphill grade. The parking brake should always be applied whenever the driver is not in the vehicle.
W ARNING! Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will diminish their effectiveness and may lead to an accident. Pumping makes the stopping distance longer . Just press firmly on your brake pedal when you need to slow down or stop.
CAUTION! The Anti-Lock Brake System is subject to possible detrimental effects of electronic interference caused by improperly installed after -market radios or tele- phones. NOTE: During severe braking conditions, a pulsing sensation may occur and a clicking noise will be hear d.
build up between the tire tread and the road. This hydroplaning action can cause loss of traction, braking ability , and control. • After going through deep water or a car wash, brakes may become wet, resulting in decreased performance and unpredictable braking action.
CAUTION! Prolonged operation of the steering system at the end of the steering wheel travel will increase the steering fluid temperature and it should be avoided when possible. Damage to the power steering pump may occur . MUL TI DISPLACEMENT SYSTEM (MDS) - 5.

286 ST ARTING AND OPERA TING I n f o r m a t i o n P r o v i d e d b y :.
W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, af fect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle.
2. Economy— Improper inflation pr essures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tire tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce tr ead life r esulting in a need for earlier tir e r eplacement. Under inflation also increases tire r olling resistance and results in higher fuel consump- tion.
check tire pressur e. Do not make a visual judgement when determining pr oper inflation. Radial tir es may look properly inflated even when they are under inflated. CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap–if equipped.
Tire Pressures for High Speed Operation The manufactur er advocates driving at safe speeds within posted speed limits. Where speed limits or condi- tions are such that the vehicle can be driven at high speeds, maintaining correct tire inflation pressur e is very important.
W ARNING! Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces gener - ated by excessive wheel speeds may cause tire dam- age or failure. A tire could explode and injure someone. Do not spin your vehicle’s wheels faster than 35 mph (55 km/h) when you are stuck, and do not let anyone near a spinning wheel no matter what the speed.
Life of Tire The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including but not limited to: • Driving style • T ire pressur e • Distance driven W ARNING! T ires and 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 suspen- sion dimensions and performance characteristics, resulting in changes to steering, handling, and brak- ing of your vehicle.
Improper alignment will not cause vehicle vibration. V ibration may be a result of tire and wheel out-of- balance. Proper balancing will reduce vibration and avoid tire cupping and spotty wear . TIRE CHAINS Certain models have suf ficient tire-to-body clearance to allow use of tire chains.
Follow the r ecommended tire r otation frequency for your type of driving found in the “Maintenance Schedules” Section of this manual. More frequent rotation is permis- sible if desired. The reasons for any rapid or unusual wear should be corr ected prior to r otation being per- formed.

5.7L Engines (If Equipped) The 5.7L engine is designed to meet all emissions regulations and provide satisfac- tory fuel economy and performance when using high quality unleaded gasoline hav- ing an octane range of 87 to 89. The manu- facturer recommends the use of 89 octane for optimum performance.
The manufactur er supports the use of r eformulated gaso- lines. Properly blended reformulated gasolines will pro- vide excellent performance and durability of engine and fuel system components. Gasoline/Oxygenate Blends Some fuel suppliers blend unleaded gasoline with oxy- genates such as 10% ethanol, MTBE, and ETBE.
It is even more important to look for gasolines without MMT in Canada, because MMT can be used at levels higher than those allowed in the United States. MMT is prohibited in Federal and California reformu- lated gasoline. Materials Added T o Fuel All gasoline sold in the United States is required to contain effective detergent additives.
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.
CAUTION! Only vehicles with the E-85 fuel filler door label can operate on E-85. ETHANOL FUEL (E-85) E-85 is a mixture of approximately 85% fuel ethanol and 15% unleaded gasoline. W ARNING! Ethanol vapors are extremely flammable and could cause serious personal injury .
NOTE: When the ambient temperature is above 90°F (32°C), you may experience hard starting and rough idle following start up even if the above r ecommendations ar e followed.
Maintenance If you operate the vehicle using E-85 fuel, follow “Main- tenance Schedule B.” Refer to Section 8 of this manual. CAUTION! Do not use ethanol mixture greater than 85% in your vehicle. It will cause difficulty in cold starting and may affect driveability .
ADDING FUEL CAUTION! DO NOT put gasoline in your diesel vehicle (if equipped). If you accidentally put gasoline in your vehicle, DO NOT start the engine. This will cause damage to the fuel system. Have the fuel system flushed. Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap) The gas cap is located behind the fuel filler door , on the driver’s side of the vehicle.
CAUTION! Damage to the fuel system or emission control system could result from using an improper fuel cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap could let impurities into the fuel system. Also, a poorly fitting after- market cap can cause the MIL (Malfunction Indica- tor Light) to illuminate, due to fuel vapors escaping from the system.
NOTE: T ighten the gas cap about 1/4 turn until you hear one click. This is an indication that cap is pr operly tightened. If the gas cap is not tighten properly , the Malfunction Indicator Light will come on. Be sure the gas cap is tightened every time the vehicle is refueled.
W ARNING! • Never add fuel when the engine is running. • Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the vehicle when the fuel cap is removed or the tank filled.
Each axle GA WR is determined by the components in the system with the lowest load carrying capacity (axle, springs, tires or wheels). Heavier axles or suspension components sometimes specified by pur chasers for in- creased durability does not necessarily increase the vehi- cle’s GVWR.

removes this heat. Y ou can also turn the T emperature Control to maximum heat, the Mode Contr ol to floor , and the Fan Contr ol to High. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement to the radiator and aids in r emoving heat from the engine cooling system.
Jack Location The scissor-type jack and tire changing tools are located in the passenger side compartment behind the second row seat. Spare Tire Stowage The spare tire is stowed under the rear of the vehicle by means of a cable winch mechanism. T o r emove or stow the spare, use the jack handle to rotate the “spar e tire drive” nut.
Spare Tire Removal Fit the jack handle extension over the drive nut. Use the Lug W rench to rotate the nut counter clockwise until the spare is on the ground with enough slack in the cable to allow to pull the tire out from under the vehicle. CAUTION! The winch mechanism is designed for use with the jack extension tube only .
Preparations For Jacking Park the vehicle on a firm level surface, avoid ice or slippery areas, set the parking brake and place the gear selector in P (Park). T urn OFF the ignition. W ARNING! Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to moving traffic.
4. Locate the jack as shown. For the fr ont axle, place it under the front lower control arm as shown. For the rear axle, place it under the axle near the wheel to be changed. Ensure the jack is closest to the inside of the wheel when jacking on the rear axle.
5. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise. Raise the vehicle only until the tire just clears the surface and enough clearance is obtained to install the spare tire. Minimum tire lift provides maximum stability . W ARNING! Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable.
nuts until each nut has been tightened twice. Correct wheel nut tightness is 130 N·m (95 ft. lbs). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench by your authorized dealer or at a service station. 10. Lower the jack to it’s fully closed position.
JUMP ST ARTING If the vehicle has a dischar ged battery , booster cables may be used to obtain a start from a booster battery or the battery in another vehicle. This type of start can be dangerous if done improperly , so follow this procedur e carefully .
2. Park the booster vehicle within cable reach but with- out letting the vehicles touch. Set the parking brake on both vehicles, place the transmission in P (Park), and turn the ignition OFF . 3. T urn off the heater , radio, and all unnecessary electri- cal loads.

indiscriminately discarded, can present a problem to the environment. Contact your local authorized dealer , ser- vice station, or governmental agency for advice on how and where used oil and oil filters can be safely discarded in your area. Engine Oil Filter The engine oil filter should be replaced with a new filter at every oil change.
Spark Plugs Spark plugs must fire properly to assure engine perfor - mance and emission control. New spark plugs should be installed at the specified mileage.
Catalytic Converter The catalytic converter requires the use of unleaded fuel only . Leaded gasoline will destroy the ef fectiveness of the converter as an emission control device. Under normal operating conditions, the catalytic con- verter will not requir e maintenance.
W ARNING! A hot exhaust system can start a fire if you park over materials that can burn. Such materials might be grass or leaves coming into contact with your ex- haust system. Do not park or operate your vehicle in areas where your exhaust system can contact any- thing that can burn.
Check ventilation hose for indication of damage or plugging deposits. Replace if necessary . Maintenance-Free Battery Y our vehicle is equipped with a maintenance-fr ee battery . Y ou will never have to add water , nor is periodic main- tenance requir ed.
T o determine the battery charge, check the battery test indicator (if equipped) on top of the battery . Refer to the illustration. CAUTION! • It is essential when replacing the cables on the battery that the positive cable is attached to the positive post and the negative cable is attached to the negative post.
cleaning of the condenser fins and a performance test. Drive belt condition should also be checked at this time. W ARNING! • Use only refrigerants and compressor lubricants approved by the manufacturer for your air condi- tioning system. Some unapproved refrigerants are flammable and can explode, injuring you.
CAUTION! Do not use Automatic T ransmission Fluid (A TF) or other types of power steering fluids when servicing the power steering system of this vehicle. Damage to the power steering system can result from the use of the wrong power steering fluid. Checking the power steering fluid level at a defined service interval is not required.
Body Lubrication Locks and all body pivot points, including such items as seat tracks, doors, tailgate and hood hinges, should be lubricated periodically to assure quiet, easy operation and to pr otect against rust and wear .
The fluid reservoir for the windshield washers and the rear window washer is shared. It is located in the front of the engine compartment (on the driver side), and should be checked for fluid level at regular intervals.
W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO) which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you. T o avoid breathing CO, refer to Exhaust Gas in the Safety T ips section of this manual.
for any accumulation of bugs, leaves, etc. If dirty , clean by gently spraying water from a garden hose vertically down the face of the condenser . Check the engine cooling system hoses for brittle rubber , cracking, tears, cuts, and tightness of the connection at the coolant recovery bottle and radiator .
CAUTION! Mixing of antifreeze/coolant other than the specified HOA T antifreeze/coolant may result in decreased corrosion protection and engine damage. If a non- HOA T antifreeze/coolant is introduced into the cool- ing system in an emergency , it should be replaced with the specified antifreeze/coolant as soon as pos- sible.
Use only high purity water such as distilled or deionized water when mixing the water/antifreeze (coolant) solu- tion. The use of lower quality water will reduce the amount of corrosion protection in the engine cooling system.
Disposal of Used Engine Coolant Used ethylene glycol-based antifreeze/coolant is a regu- lated substance r equiring proper disposal. Check with your local authorities to determine the disposal rules for your community .
If an examination of your engine compartment shows no evidence of radiator or hose leaks, the vehicle may be safely driven. The vapor will soon dissipate. • Do not overfill the coolant recovery bottle. • Check antifreeze/coolant fr eeze point in the radiator and in the coolant r ecovery bottle.
Pay particular attention to the hoses nearest to high heat sources such as the exhaust manifold. Inspect hose rout- ing to be sure hoses do not touch any heat source or moving component that may cause heat damage or mechanical wear . Insure nylon tubing in these ar eas has not melted or collapsed.
Brake and Power Steering System Hoses When servicing the vehicle for scheduled maintenance, inspect surface of hoses for evidence of heat and me- chanical damage. Hard and brittle rubber , cracking, tears, cuts, abrasion, and excessive swelling suggest deteriora- tion of the rubber .
Brake Master Cylinder — Brake Fluid Level Check The fluid level of the master cylinder should be checked when performing under the hood service, or immedi- ately if the brake system warning lamp indicates system failure. The brake master cylinder has a translucent plastic reservoir .
CAUTION! Do not allow a petroleum-base fluid to contaminate the brake fluid. Seal damage may result. Front/Rear Axle Fluid Front Axle Fluid Level Check Lubricant should be to the bottom of the oil fill hole. Rear Axle Fluid Level Check Lubricant should be 1/2” (1 cm) below the oil fill hole.
CAUTION! When installing plugs, do not overtighten. Y ou could damage them and cause them to leak. Selection of Lubricant Use only manufacturer’s recommended fluid, refer to Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts for correct fluid type.
Check the fluid level while the transmission is at normal operating temperature. This occurs after at least 15 miles (25 km) of driving. At normal operating temperature the fluid cannot be held comfortably between the fingertips. T o check the automatic transmission fluid level properly , the following procedur e must be used: 1.
CAUTION! Be aware that if the fluid temperature is below 50°F (10°C) it may not register on the dipstick. Do not add fluid until the temperature is elevated enough to produce an accurate reading.
