Do not plug optional electrical
accessories into the cigarette lighter.
Use the power point.
Do not use the power point for
operating the cigarette lighter
element.
The maximum power each power
point can supply depends on the
fuse rating. For example: a 20A fuse
should supply a maximum of 240
Watts, a 15A fuse should supply a maximum of 180 Watts and a 10A fuse
should supply a maximum of 120 Watts. Exceeding these limits will
result in a blown fuse.
Always keep the power point caps closed when not being used.
The third auxiliary power point on
the center console is accessible from
the rear seats.
The rear auxiliary power point is located on the right rear quarter panel.
The power point is accessible from the liftgate or the third row seat.

HOMELINKWIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLinkWireless Control System, located on the driver’s visor,
provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held transmitters
with a single built-in device. This feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most transmitters to operate garage doors, entry gate operators,
security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
When programming your HomeLinkWireless Control System to
a garage door or gate, be sure that people and objects are out of
the way to prevent potential harm or damage.
Do not use the HomeLinkWireless Control System with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by
U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot
detect an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact
HomeLinkat:www.homelink.comor1–800–355–3515.

ELECTRONIC COMPASS/TEMPERATURE DISPLAY WITHOUT
MESSAGE CENTER (IF EQUIPPED)
Outside air temperature
In vehicles without Dual Electronic
Automatic Temperature Control
(DEATC), the outside temperature
display is contained in the
instrument cluster and displays all
the time. In vehicles with DEATC,
the temperature displays in the climate control display.
To turn the display off or change the display from English to metric see
your dealer.
Compass
The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antennas.
Magnetic or metallic objects placed in, on or near the vehicle may also
affect compass accuracy.
Usually, when something affects the compass readings, the compass will
correct itself after a few days of operating your vehicle in normal
conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual
calibration may be necessary. Refer toCompass calibration adjustment
in this section.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four
degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the
vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this
error. Refer toCompass zone adjustmentin this section.

REAR SEATS
Second row seats
Your vehicle’s second row outboard seating positions are equipped with
head restraints which are vertically adjustable. The purpose of these
head restraints is to help limit head motion in the event of a rear
collision. To properly adjust your head restraints, lift the head restraint
so that it is located directly behind your head or as close to that position
as possible.
The head restraints can be raised by
lifting. To lower the head restraint,
press the release button.
If the head restraint becomes detached, replace the notched bar into the
bezel while holding the release button.
Second row folding seat system
Ensure that no objects such as books, purses or briefcases are on the
floor in front of the second row seats or on the seat cushion before
folding them down. Ensure that the head restraints are lowered.
Move the front passenger seat forward so that the second row seat
headrest clears the front seat.
For assistance, refer to the label located on the side of the seat cushion.

and one-half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire
graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual
conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the
norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices, and
differences in road characteristics and climate.
Traction AA A B C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The
grades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction
performance.
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on
straight-ahead braking traction tests, and does not include
acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning or peak traction characteristics.
Temperature A B C
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire
to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance
which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of
performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by
law.
The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.
TIRES
Tires are designed to give many thousands of miles of service, but they
must be maintained in order to get the maximum benefit from them.
Glossary of tire terminology
•Tire label:A label showing the OE (Original Equipment) tire sizes,
recommended inflation pressure and the maximum weight the vehicle
can carry.
