Storage Areas
Your vehicle’s large carrying capacity can store many
items. If you have the extended wheelbase version, you
can carry even larger items. You can also use the
oor pins that are used to attach the seats, to secure
larger loads.
Glove Box
Your vehicle has a glove box below the instrument
panel. To open the glove box, lift the latch release.
The glove box door has a detent to prevent the door
from lowering too far. Open the glove box until the door
is partway open, then pull the door down if you need

Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake. This, of course, shuts
off the cruise control. But you do not need to reset
it. Once you are going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can move the cruise control switch from ON to
resume/accelerate (R/A) briey. You will go back up to
your chosen speed and stay there.
If you hold the switch at R/A, the vehicle will keep going
faster until you release the switch or apply the brake.
So unless you want to go faster, do not hold the switch
at R/A.
Increasing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
To increase your speed while using cruise control,
do one of the following:
Use the accelerator pedal to get to the higher
speed. Press the SET button at the end of the lever,
then release the button and the accelerator pedal.
You will begin to cruise at the higher speed.
Move the cruise switch from ON to R/A. Hold it
there until you get up to the speed you want,
and then release the switch. To increase your speed
in very small amounts, move the switch to R/A
briey and then release it. Each time you do this,
your vehicle will go about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) faster.
The accelerate feature will work whether or not you have
set an initial cruise control speed.
Reducing Speed While Using Cruise
Control
To reduce your speed while using cruise control, do one
of the following:
Press the SET button at the end of the lever until you
reach the lower speed you want, then release it.
To slow down in very small amounts, press the SET
button briey. Each time you do this, you will go
about 1 mph (1.6 km/h) slower.

Speedometer and Odometer
Your speedometer lets you see your speed in both
miles per hour (mph) and kilometers per hour (km/h).
Your odometer shows how far your vehicle has
been driven, in either miles (used in the United States)
or kilometers (used in Canada).
Your vehicle has a tamper-resistant odometer.
You may wonder what happens if your vehicle needs a
new odometer installed. If the new one can be set to
the mileage total of the old odometer, then that will
be done. If it cannot be, it will be set at zero and a label
must be put on the driver’s door to show the old
mileage reading when the new odometer was installed.
Dual Trip Odometers
In addition to the standard odometer, the cluster can also
display two separate trip odometers, designated by the
letter A or B in the display window, as well as your
vehicle’s Engine Oil Life, which is designated by the word
OIL in the display window. The display can be toggled
between the odometer, the trip odometers, and engine oil
life by quickly pressing and releasing the trip/reset button
located to the right of the temperature gage. The display
toggles once each time the trip/reset button is pressed for
less than 1.5 seconds. The display toggles in the
following sequence: Odometer - Trip Odometer A - Trip
Odometer B - Engine Oil Life. If the engine oil life is left on
the display, it will automatically toggle back to the
odometer after about 15 seconds. Each of the two trip
odometers can be used to keep track of different trip
distances, such as the mileage of a long trip and the
mileage driven on the current tank of fuel. The trip
odometers will continue to keep track of miles
(kilometers) driven even if they are not currently
displayed. To reset the odometer to zero, press and hold
the trip/reset button for at least 1.5 seconds, but less than
three seconds. Only the trip odometer that is showing in
the display will be reset.
3-39

Retro-Active Reset
Each of the two trip odometers has a feature called
retro-active reset. This feature can be used to set either
or both trip odometer(s) to the number of miles
(kilometers) driven since the ignition was last turned on.
This can be used if you forget to reset your trip odometer
at the beginning of a trip. To use the retro-active reset
feature, press and hold the trip/reset button for at least
three seconds. The trip odometer will then display the
number of miles (kilometers) driven since the ignition was
last turned on and you began driving. If you use the
retro-active reset feature after you have started the
vehicle, but before you begin moving, the display will
show the number of miles (kilometers) you drove during
the last ignition cycle. Once you begin driving, the trip
odometer will accumulate mileage. For example, if you
have driven 5.0 miles (8.0 km) since you started your
vehicle, and then activate the retro-active reset feature,
the display will show 5.0 miles (8.0 km). As you drive, the
display will then increase to 5.1 miles (8.2 km), 5.2 miles
(8.4 km), etc. Only the trip odometer that is displayed will
be affected by the retro-active reset so that both trip
odometers can be used separately.
Tachometer
Your vehicle may have a tachometer that displays the
engine speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
Notice:If you operate the engine with the
tachometer in the shaded warning area, your vehicle
could be damaged, and the damages would not
be covered by your warranty. Do not operate
the engine with the tachometer in the shaded
warning area.

seconds when you turn the
ignition key to RUN.
If the anti-lock brake system warning light stays on
longer than normal after you’ve started your engine, turn
the ignition off. Or, if the light comes on and stays on
when you’re driving, stop as soon as possible and turn
the ignition off. Then start the engine again to reset
the system. If the light still stays on, or comes on again
while you’re driving, the anti-lock brake system needs
service and you don’t have anti-lock brakes.
The anti-lock brake system warning light should come
on briey when you turn the ignition key to RUN. If
the light doesn’t come on then, have it xed so it will be
ready to warn you if there is a problem.
Traction Control System (TCS)
Warning Light
Your vehicle may have a traction control system
warning light. The traction control system warning light
may come on for the following reasons:
If you turn the system off by pressing the TCS
button located in the instrument panel switchbank
the warning light will come on and stay on. To
turn the system back on, press the button again.
The warning light should go off. SeeTraction

message will go out when the differential uid cools.
The all-wheel drive system will be disabled until the
compact spare tire is replaced by a full-size tire. If the
warning message is still on after putting on the full-size
tire, you need to reset the warning message. To
reset the warning message, turn the ignition off and
then back on again. If the message stays on, see your
dealer right away. SeeAll-Wheel Drive (AWD)
System on page 4-11for more information.
Low Fuel Warning Message
If your fuel is low, the warning message will come on
and stay on until you add fuel.
If the warning message is still on after adding fuel, you
need to reset the warning message. To reset the
warning message, turn the ignition off and then back on.
If the message stays on, see your dealer. United StatesCanada
