214 Driving and Operating
Parking over Things
That Burn
{ WarningThings that can burn could touch
hot exhaust parts under the
vehicle and ignite. Do not park
over papers, leaves, dry grass,
or other things that can burn.
Active Fuel Management Vehicles with V8 engines may have
Active Fuel Management. This
system allows the engine to operate
on either all or half of its cylinders,
depending on the driving conditions.
When less power is required, such
as cruising at a constant vehicle
speed, the system will operate in
the half cylinder mode, allowing the
vehicle to achieve better fuel
economy. When greater power
demands are required, such as
accelerating from a stop, passing,
or merging onto a freeway, the
system will maintain full-cylinder
operation. If the vehicle has an Active Fuel
Management indicator, see Driver
Information Center (DIC) 0 151 for
more information on using this
display.
Extended Parking It is better not to park with the
vehicle running. If the vehicle is left
while running, follow the proper
steps to be sure the vehicle will not
move and there is adequate
ventilation.
See Shifting Into Park 0 212 and
Engine Exhaust 0 215 .
For vehicles with pushbutton start,
if the vehicle is left parked while
running and the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter is outside
the vehicle, the vehicle will turn off
after one hour.
If the vehicle is left parked while
running and the RKE transmitter is
inside, the vehicle will turn off after
two hours.
Vehicles without pushbutton start
will run indefinitely, or until the
ignition is turned off. Automatic Transmission
The timer will reset if the vehicle is
shifted out of P (Park) while it is
running.
Manual Transmission
The timer will reset if the vehicle
speed is greater than 4 km/h
(2.5 mph).
