Testing of Readiness Codes
Your vehicle has readiness codes as part of the onboard self-diagnostic s\
ystem.
Some states refer to these codes as testing to verify if your vehicle’\
s emissions
components are working properly. The codes may not be read if you go through the
testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected.
To check if they are set, turn the vehicle on without starting the engine\
. The
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it goes \
off, the
readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times, the readiness codes \
are not set.
If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness cod\
es are set,
prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:
1.
Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.
2.
Park the vehicle and leave the power system off for 6 hours or more.
3.
Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°\
C and 35°C).
4.
Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle\
for 20
seconds.
5.
Keep the vehicle in Park (P) or Neutral for manual transmission. Incre\
ase the
engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for about 3 minutes.
6.
Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.
7.
Select a nearby, lightly traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed
of 50 to 60 mph (80 to 97 km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the \
highway
with the vehicle in Drive (D) or 5th gear

. Do not use cruise control. When traffic
allows, drive for 90 seconds without using the accelerator pedal. (
vehicle speed
may vary slightly; this is
oK.) If you cannot do this for a continuous 90 seconds
because of traffic conditions, drive for at least 30 seconds, then rep\
eat two mor

e
times (for a total of 90 seconds).
8.
Drive in city or suburban traffic for at least 10 minutes. When traffi\
c conditions
allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the acceler

ator
pedal or the brake pedal.
9.
Park the vehicle and leave the power system off for 30 minutes.
The readiness codes are erased when the battery is disconnected, and set\
again
only after several days of driving under a variety of conditions.
If a testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, y\
ou may be
requested to return at a later date to complete the test, or see your de\
aler.

Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting
Below are some frequently asked questions and troubleshooting items that\
you may
have about the vehicle.
Q:
How do I set the vehicle clock?
A:
For vehicles without navigation, see page 50. For vehicles with navigati\
on, the
time is automatically set using GPS signals.
Q:
Why doesn’t the vehicle start when I press the POWER button?*
A:
The brake pedal (and/or clutch pedal*) must be pressed to start the po\
wer
system.
Q:
What is the AUTO setting on my headlight lever?*
A:
When in the AUTo position, the vehicle’s exterior lights will automatically turn
on or off, depending on the ambient lighting.
Q:
Why won’t the driver’s door unlock when I grab the door handle, even though
the keyless access remote is within range?
A:
If you pull the handle too quickly, the system may not have time to confirm the
door is unlocked. Wait to hear a beep to confirm the door is unlocked. If you are
wearing gloves, the system may be slow to respond.
Q:
After my battery was disconnected or went dead, the audio system is aski\
ng for
a code. Where do I find this?

In most cases, you do not need to enter a code. Turn on the vehicle and the
audio system, and press and hold the PoWer button until the system
reactivates.
Q:
Why can’t I operate Pandora through the audio system?
A:
Audio may be streaming through Bluetooth Audio. Make sure Pandora mode
is selected and the phone cable is properly connected to the USB adapter\


cable (if using). Some phones may prompt you to “Allow” a connec\
tion.
Q:
Is my phone compatible with Bluetooth features?
A:
visit handsfreelink.com (U.S.) or

www.handsfreelink.ca (Canada) to
check phone compatibility for Bluetooth Audio,

Bluetooth HandsFreeLink,
and SMS text messaging.
Q:
Every time I press the Talk button, the system gives me voice prompts. Can I turn
these off?*

From the Home screen, select SeTTINGS. Select System, then select voice
Prompt. Select off.
