•Push up to activate the right turn
signal.
INTERIOR LAMPS

•any door is opened.
•the instrument panel dimmer
switch is held up until the
courtesy lamps come on.
•the remote entry controls are
pressed and the ignition is off.
BULB REPLACEMENT
Headlamp condensation
Exterior lamps are vented to accommodate normal changes in pressure.
Condensation can be a natural by-product of this design. When moist air
enters the lamp assembly through the vents, condensation can occur
when the temperature is cold. When normal condensation occurs, a thin
film of mist can form on the interior of the lens. The thin mist eventually
clears and exits through the vents during normal operation. Clearing
time may take as long as 48 hours under dry weather conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
•Presence of thin mist (no streaks, drip marks or droplets)
•Fine mist covers less than 50% of the lens
Examples of unacceptable moisture (usually caused by a lamp water
leak) are:
•Water puddle inside the lamp

Replacing headlamp bulbs/front park bulbs/turn signal bulbs
To remove the bulb(s):
1. Make sure the headlamp switch is
in the off position, then open the
hood.
2. At the back of the headlamp, pry
up the two retainer pins to release
the headlamp assembly from the
vehicle and pull headlamp forward.
3. Disconnect the electrical
connector from the bulb by pulling
rearward.
4. Remove the bulb retaining ring by
rotating it counterclockwise and
slide the ring off the plastic base.
5. Remove the old bulb by pulling it
straight out of the lamp.
WARNING:Handle a halogen headlamp bulb carefully and keep
out of children’s reach. Grasp the bulb only by its plastic base
and do not touch the glass. The oil from your hand could cause the
bulb to break the next time the headlamps are operated.
Install the new bulb(s) in reverse order.

Trailer lamps
Trailer lamps are required on most towed vehicles. Make sure all running
lights, brake lights, turn signals and hazard lights are working. Contact
your authorized dealer or trailer rental agency for proper instructions
and equipment for hooking up trailer lamps.
Using a step bumper (if equipped)
The optional step bumper is equipped with an integral hitch and requires
only a ball with a 3/4 inch (19 mm) shank diameter. The bumper has a
2,000 lb (907 kg) trailer weight and 200 lb (91 kg) tongue weight
capability.
The rated capacities (as shown in this guide) for trailer towing with the
factory bumper are only valid when the trailer hitch ball is installed
directly into the ball hole in the bumper. Addition of bracketry to either
lower the ball hitch position or extend the ball hitch rearward will
significantly increase the loads on the bumper and its attachments. This
can result in the failure of the bumper or the bumper attachments. Use
of any type of hitch extensions should be considered abuse.
Trailer tow connector
The trailer tow connector is located
under the rear bumper, on the
driver’s side of the vehicle.
Refer to the following chart for information regarding the
factory-equipped trailer tow connector:

Driving while you tow
When towing a trailer:
•To ensure proper “break-in” of powertrain components, do not trailer
tow during the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of a new vehicle.
•To ensure proper “break-in” of powertrain components during the first
500 miles (800 km) of trailer towing, drive no faster than 70 mph
(113 km/h) with no full throttle starts.
•Turn off the speed control. The speed control may shut off
automatically when you are towing on long, steep grades.
•Consult your local motor vehicle speed regulations for towing a trailer.
•To eliminate excessive automatic transmission shifting, use a lower
gear. This will also assist in transmission cooling. For additional
information, refer toAutomatic transmission operationin the
Drivingchapter.
•Under extreme conditions with large frontal trailers, high outside
temperatures and highway speeds, the coolant gauge may indicate
higher than normal coolant temperatures. If this occurs, reduce speed
until the coolant temperature returns to the normal range. Refer to
Engine coolant temperature gaugein theInstrument Cluster
chapter.

In an emergency, to disable the malfunctioning brake-shift interlock
feature in order to shift the vehicle from P(Park) follow these steps:
WARNING:To prevent vehicle movement when following this
procedure, park on a level surface, ensure parking brake is set,
and block the rear wheels.

3. Insert the key and turn to 3 (off). Shift to N (Neutral);
4. Reconnect the negative (Black) battery cable to the battery;
5. Start the vehicle.
See your authorized dealer for service immediately.
WARNING:If your brake lamps are not working properly or if
you have disconnected the vehicle battery cables, the vehicle
brake lamps and hazard flashers may not properly warn traffic of a
vehicle breakdown or approaching danger, which can increase the risk
of serious injury or death. To minimize the risk of serious injury or
death, be aware of your surroundings, use other hazard signaling
devices if available, and move the vehicle to a safe location away from
traffic as soon as possible.
WARNING:Do not drive your vehicle until you verify that the
brakelamps are working.

the gearshift is latched in P (Park). Turn the ignition to the lock
position and remove the key whenever you leave your vehicle.

warning lamp remains illuminated, the brakes may not be
working properly. See your authorized dealer.
