ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the engine and drivetrain (transmission and axle)
in your vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km),
speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws contrib-
utes to a good break-in. Wide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be detrimental and
should be avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving type
lubricant. Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated climate conditions under
which vehicle operations will occur. For the recommended viscosity and quality grades,
refer to “Maintaining Your Vehicle.”
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of
operation. This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted as an
indication of an engine problem or malfunction.
CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result.
HEADLIGHT SWITCH
Automatic Headlights/Parking Lights/Headlights
• Rotate the headlight switch, located onthe instrument panel to the left of the
steering wheel, to the first detent for park-
ing lights
and to the second detent
for headlights
.
• With the parking lights or low beam head- lights on, push the headlight switch once
for fog lights.
• Rotate the headlight switch to “AUTO” for AUTO headlights.
• When set to AUTO, the system automati- cally turns the headlights on or off based
on ambient light levels.

ELECTRONIC SHIFTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a fuel efficient
eight-speed transmission. The Electronic
gear selector is located on the center console.
The transmission gear (PRND) is displayed
both above the shifter control and in the Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
• To select a gear range, simply rotate theshifter control.
NOTE:
You must press the brake pedal to shift the
transmission out of PARK or from NEUTRAL
into DRIVE or REVERSE.
• To shift past multiple gear ranges at once (such as PARK to DRIVE), simply rotate
the switch to the appropriate detent.
• Select the DRIVE range for normal driving.
WARNING!
•Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply the
parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and possible injury
or damage.
• Your vehicle could move and injure you and others if it is not in PARK. Make sure the transmission is in PARK before leaving the vehicle.
• It is dangerous to shift out of PARK or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing the brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate
quickly forward or in reverse. You could lose control of the vehicle and hit someone or
something. Only shift into gear when the engine is idling normally and your foot is
firmly pressing the brake pedal.
• Unintended movement of a vehicle could injure those in or near the vehicle. As with all vehicles, you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is running. Before exiting
a vehicle, always apply the parking brake, shift the transmission into PARK, turn the
engine OFF, and remove the key fob. When the ignition is in the OFF position, the
transmission is locked in PARK, securing the vehicle against unwanted movement.
• When leaving the vehicle, always make sure the ignition switch is in the OFF position remove the key fob from the vehicle, and lock the vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons.
A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be warned not
to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the transmission gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or in a location accessible to children), and do not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the
ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.

AUTOSTICK®
AutoStick® is a driver-interactive transmis-
sion feature providing manual shift control,
giving you more control of the vehicle.
AutoStick® allows you to maximize engine
braking, eliminate undesirable upshifts and
downshifts, and improve overall vehicle per-
formance. This system can also provide you
with more control during passing, city driving, cold slippery conditions, mountain driving,
trailer towing, and many other situations.
Operation
• When the transmission is in DRIVE, it will operate automatically, shifting between theeight available gears. To engage AutoStick®, simply tap one of the steering wheel-
mounted shift paddles (+/-). Tapping (-) to enter AutoStick® will downshift the transmis-
sion to the next lower gear, while using (+) to enter AutoStick® will retain the current gear.
When AutoStick® is active, the current transmission gear is displayed in the instrument
cluster.
In AutoStick® mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is manually selected
by the driver, unless an engine lugging or overspeed condition would result.
NOTE:
To disengage AutoStick® mode, press and hold the (+) shift paddle until "D" is once again
displayed in the instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of AutoStick® mode at any time
without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a slippery surface. The drive wheels
could lose their grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or personal injury.
