Contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible if these messages
occur on a regular basis.
POSITIVE RETENTION FLOOR MAT (IF EQUIPPED)
Position the floor mat so that the
eyelet is over the pointed end of the
retention post and rotate forward to
lock in. Make sure that the mat does
not interfere with the operation of
the accelerator or the brake pedal.
To remove the floor mat, reverse the
installation procedure.
LIFTGATE
•To open the liftgate window, push
the control button under the
center of the license plate lamp
shield.
•To open the liftgate, position your
hand on top of the liftgate handle
and pull to open the liftgate.
•Do not open the liftgate or
liftgate glass in a garage or other
enclosed area with a low ceiling.
If the liftgate glass is raised and the liftgate is also opened, both
liftgate and glass could be damaged against a low ceiling.
•Do not leave the liftgate or liftgate glass open while driving. Doing so
could cause serious damage to the liftgate and its components as well
as allowing carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle.
Do not grab or pull the liftgate handle from the bottom. Doing so
may cause wrist or arm injury.
Make sure the liftgate is closed to prevent exhaust fumes from
being drawn into the vehicle. If you must drive with the liftgate
open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into the vehicle.

The BRAKE warning lamp in the
instrument cluster illuminates and
remains illuminated (when the
ignition is turned ON) until the
parking brake is released.
If the parking brake is fully released, but the brake warning lamp
remains illuminated, the brakes may not be working properly.
See your authorized dealer.
Always set the parking brake fully and make sure that the
gearshift is securely latched in P (Park).
The parking brake is not recommended to stop a moving vehicle.
However, if the normal brakes fail, the parking brake can be used to stop
your vehicle in an emergency. Since the parking brake applies only the
rear brakes, the vehicle’s stopping distance will increase greatly and the
handling of your vehicle will be adversely affected.
Pull the release lever to release the
brake. Driving with the parking
brake on will cause the brakes to
wear out quickly and reduce fuel
economy.
ADVANCETRACWITH ROLL STABILITY CONTROL(RSC)
STABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
AdvanceTracwith RSC is an integrated system with four major
components: Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Traction Control, yaw
control and a vehicle-roll motion sensor. It automatically utilizes these
elements in varying combinations to help give the driver optimum control
at all times. AdvanceTrac, which includes ABS, Traction Control and
yaw control, helps your vehicle maintain traction when driving on
slippery and/or hilly road surfaces, by detecting and controlling wheel
P!

Some drivers may notice a slight movement of the brake pedal when the
AdvanceTracwith RSC performs a system self-check. During
AdvanceTracwith RSC system operation you may experience the
following:
•A rumble or grinding noise
•A slight deceleration of the vehicle
•The AdvanceTracwith RSC indicator light will flash
•If your foot is on the brake pedal, you will feel a vibration in the
pedal.
•If the driving condition is severe and your foot is not on the brake, the
brake pedal will move to apply higher brake forces. You may also hear
a whoosh of air from under the instrument panel during this severe
condition.
All these conditions are normal during AdvanceTracwith RSC
operation.
Do not alter or modify your vehicle’s suspension or steering; the
resulting changes to the vehicle’s handling can adversely affect
the AdvanceTracwith Roll Stability Controlsystem. Also, do
not install a stereo loudspeaker near the front center console or
under either front seat. The speaker vibrations can adversely
affect the AdvanceTracwith Roll Stability Controlsensors
located in this area.
Note:Pressing the AdvanceTracwith RSC button will disable the
AdvanceTracwith RSC system.
Aggressive driving in any road conditions can cause you to lose
control of your vehicle increasing the risk of severe personal
injury or property damage. The occurrence of an AdvanceTracwith
Roll Stability Controlevent is an indication that at least some of the
tires have exceeded their ability to grip the road; this may lead to an
increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death. If you experience a severe road event, SLOW DOWN.
STEERING
Your vehicle is equipped with power steering. Power steering uses energy
from the engine to decrease the driver’s effort in steering the vehicle.
To prevent damage to the power steering pump:
•Never hold the steering wheel to the extreme right or the extreme left
for more than a few seconds when the engine is running.

CHANGING THE TIRES
If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily.
Instead, gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly
and slowly move to a safe place on the side of the road.
Your vehicle may be equipped with a conventional spare tire that is
different in one or more of the following: type, brand, size, speed rating
and tread design. If this is the case, this dissimilar spare tire is still rated
for your vehicle loads (GAWR and GVWR). Your vehicle may be equipped
with a spare wheel that may not match the road wheels and is not
equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) sensor.
The use of tire sealants may damage your tires. The use of tire
sealants may also damage your Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
