press them, and extract the pliers pulling
upwards.
The pliers have two different ends, both
of which are specifically designed to
remove the different types of fuses
present in the vehicle:After use, return the pliers to their proper
position by following the below
procedures:
Grasp the pliers from the upper tabs
and insert them into their housing.
Push downward on the pliers into their
housing until they click into place.
Warning!
When replacing a blown fuse, always use
an appropriate replacement fuse with the
same amp rating as the original fuse. Never
replace a fuse with another fuse of higher
amp rating. Never replace a blown fuse with
metal wires or any other material. Do not
place a fuse inside a circuit breaker cavity
or vice versa. Failure to use proper fuses

may result in serious personal injury, fire
and/or property damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that
the ignition is off and that all the other
services are switched off and/or
disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact
an authorized dealer.
If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system,
transmission system) or steering system
blows, contact an authorized dealer.

Cable Disconnection
Once the engine is started, remove the
connection cables in reverse sequence,
as described below:
1. Disconnect the negative (-) end of the
jumper cable from the remote negative (-)
post of the vehicle with the discharged
battery.
2. Disconnect the negative end (-) of the
jumper cable from the negative (-) post of
the booster battery.
3. Disconnect the opposite end of the
positive (+) jumper cable from the
positive (+) post of the booster battery.
4. Disconnect the positive (+) end of the
jumper cable from the positive (+) post of
the vehicle with the discharged battery.
If frequent jump starting is required to
start your vehicle, you should have the
battery and charging system inspected at
an authorized dealer.
Caution!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power
outlets draw power from the vehicle’s
battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough without engine operation, the
vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently
to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
Bump Starting
Never jump start the engine by pushing,
towing or coasting downhill. You cannot
start a vehicle with an automatic
transmission by pushing it.
Caution!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power
outlets draw power from the vehicle’s
battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular
phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough without engine operation, the
vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently
to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
ENGINE OVERHEATING
Engine overheating may occur in
situations such as (but not limited to)
extreme environmental temperatures or
frequent engine stops/starts. If the
engine becomes overheated, the Engine
Temperature Warning Light in the
instrument cluster will illuminate along
with a dedicated message. Refer to
"Warning Lights And Messages On The
Instrument Panel" in the "Getting To
Know Your Instrument Panel" for more
information.
In any of the following situations, you can
reduce the potential for overheating by
taking the appropriate action.
On the highways — slow down.
In city traffic — while stopped, place
the transmission in NEUTRAL, but do not
increase engine idle speed.
Note: There are steps that you can take
to slow down an impending overheat
condition:
If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn
it off. The A/C system adds heat to the
engine cooling system and turning the
A/C off can help remove this heat.
You can also turn the temperature
control to maximum heat, the mode
control to floor and the blower control to
high. This allows the heater core to act
as a supplement to the radiator and aids
in removing heat from the engine cooling
system.
