necessary to replace the complete headphone set.
The headphone replacement foam ear pads can
be ordered in pairs. See your dealer for more
information.Battery Replacement

Fixed Mast Antenna
The xed mast antenna can withstand most car
washes without being damaged. If the mast should
ever become slightly bent, straighten it out by
hand. If the mast is badly bent, replace it.
Check occasionally to make sure the mast is
still tightened to its base. If tightening is
required, tighten by hand, then with a wrench
one quarter turn.
XM™ Satellite Radio Antenna
System
The XM™ Satellite Radio antenna is located on
the roof of your vehicle. Keep this antenna clear of
snow and ice build up for clear radio reception.
If your vehicle has a sunroof, the performance of
the XM™ system may be affected if the sunroof
is open.
Loading items onto the roof of your vehicle can
interfere with the performance of the XM™ system.
Make sure the XM™ Satellite Radio antenna is
not obstructed.
Chime Level Adjustment
The radio is used to adjust the vehicle’s chime
level. To change the volume level of the chime,

with a factory radio or chime module will disable
vehicle chimes.

Remember: ABS does not change the time you
need to get your foot up to the brake pedal or
always decrease stopping distance. If you get too
close to the vehicle in front of you, you will not have
time to apply your brakes if that vehicle suddenly
slows or stops. Always leave enough room up
ahead to stop, even though you have ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the brake
pedal down rmly and let anti-lock work for you.
You may feel the brakes vibrate, or you may notice
some noise, but this is normal.
Braking in Emergencies
With ABS, you can steer and brake at the same
time. In many emergencies, steering can help you
more than even the very best braking.
Traction Assist System (TAS)
Your vehicle may have a Traction Assist
System (TAS) that limits wheel spin. This is
especially useful in slippery road conditions.
The system operates only if it senses that one or
both of the rear wheels are spinning or beginning
to lose traction. When this happens, the system
reduces engine power to limit wheel spin.
The traction control system is enabled every time
your vehicle is started. The system will activate
if it senses that any of the wheels are spinning or
beginning to lose traction.
You may hear or feel the system working or notice a
lack of accelerator response, but this is normal.
The Traction Assist System may operate on dry
roads under some conditions. When this happens,
you may notice a reduction in acceleration.
This is normal and doesn’t mean there’s a problem
with your vehicle. Examples of these conditions
include a hard acceleration in a turn, an abrupt
upshift or downshift of the transmission or driving
on rough roads.

It is recommended to use this system as follows:
For superior ride comfort in an unloaded vehicle
the button should be out. The indicator light will
not be lit. This button position indicates
NORMAL levels of ride control or damping.
For superior ride comfort when trailering, fully
loaded, driving off-road, or when personal
preferences demand more control, the button
should be pressed in with the indicator light lit.
This switch position indicates FIRM levels of
ride control or damping.
The following guide can also be used to help
determine the best setting.
NORMAL:The indicator light will not be lit when
the system is in this setting. Use for normal
city and highway driving. This setting provides a
smooth, soft ride when the vehicle is unloaded.
FIRM (Unloaded):Press the button to activate
this setting, the indicator light will be lit. Use
this setting when road conditions or personal
preference demand more control. This setting
provides more “feel” or response to the road
conditions.FIRM (Loaded):Press the button to activate
this setting, the indicator light will be lit. Use this
setting to minimize trailer inputs to the vehicle
or when the vehicle is fully loaded. This setting is
also appropriate for off-road driving.
You can select a setting at any time based on
road and trailering conditions to provide the best
ride and handling. Select a new setting whenever
driving conditions change.
Locking Rear Axle
If your vehicle has this feature, your locking rear
axle can give you additional traction on snow, mud,
ice, sand or gravel. It works like a standard axle
most of the time, but when one of the rear wheels
has no traction and the other does, this feature
will allow the wheel with traction to move the
vehicle.

Watch for traffic signs, pavement markings, and
lines. If you can see a sign up ahead that might
indicate a turn or an intersection, delay your
pass. A broken center line usually indicates it is
all right to pass, providing the road ahead is
clear. Never cross a solid line on your side of
the lane or a double solid line, even if the road
seems empty of approaching traffic.
Do not get too close to the vehicle you want to
pass while you are awaiting an opportunity.
For one thing, following too closely reduces
your area of vision, especially if you are
following a larger vehicle. Also, you will not
have adequate space if the vehicle ahead
suddenly slows or stops. Keep back a
reasonable distance.
When it looks like a chance to pass is coming
up, start to accelerate but stay in the right lane
and do not get too close. Time your move so
you will be increasing speed as the time comes
to move into the other lane. If the way is clear to
pass, you will have a running start that more
than makes up for the distance you would loseby dropping back. And if something happens to
cause you to cancel your pass, you need only
slow down and drop back again and wait for
another opportunity.
If other vehicles are lined up to pass a slow
vehicle, wait your turn. But take care that
someone is not trying to pass you as you pull
out to pass the slow vehicle. Remember to
glance over your shoulder and check the
blind spot.
Check your vehicle’s mirrors, glance over your
shoulder, and start your left lane change signal
before moving out of the right lane to pass.
When you are far enough ahead of the passed
vehicle to see its front in your vehicle’s inside
mirror, activate the right lane change signal and
move back into the right lane. Remember that,
if your vehicle’s passenger side outside mirror
is convex, the vehicle you just passed may
seem to be farther away from you than it
really is.

Getting Familiar with Off-Road Driving
It is a good idea to practice in an area that is
safe and close to home before you go into
the wilderness. Off-road driving does require
some new and different driving skills. Here is
what we mean.
Tune your senses to different kinds of signals.
Your eyes, for example, need to constantly sweep
the terrain for unexpected obstacles. Your ears
need to listen for unusual tire or engine sounds.
With your arms, hands, feet, and body, you
will need to respond to vibrations and vehicle
bounce.
Controlling your vehicle is the key to successful
off-road driving. One of the best ways to
control your vehicle is to control your speed.Here are some things to keep in mind. At higher
speeds:You approach things faster and you have less
time to scan the terrain for obstacles.
You have less time to react.
You have more vehicle bounce when you
drive over obstacles.
You will need more distance for braking,
especially since you are on an unpaved
surface.
{CAUTION:
When you are driving off-road, bouncing
and quick changes in direction can easily
throw you out of position. This could cause
you to lose control and crash. So, whether
you are driving on or off the road, you and
your passengers should wear safety belts.
