STARTING AND OPERATING 81
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
To ensure reliable starting under extreme cold
conditions an externally powered electric block
heater (if equipped) is required for the 1.3L Turbo
engine below -20°F (-29°C). To prevent possible engine damage while starting
at low


temperatures, this vehicle will inhibit engine
cranking when the ambient temperature is less
than -20°F (-29°C) for the 1.3L Turbo engine, and
the oil temperature sensor reading indicates an
engine block heater has not been used. The
message “plug in engine heater” will be displayed
in the instrument cluster when the ambient
temperature is below -4°F (-20°C) at the time the
engine is shut off as a reminder to avoid possible
crank delays at the next cold start.
EXTENDED PARK STARTING
NOTE:
Extended Park condition occurs when the vehicle
has n ot
been started or driven for at least 30 days.

1. Install a battery charger or jumper cables to the ba
ttery to ensure a full battery charge
during the crank cycle.

2. Press the START/STOP ignition button and relea

se it when the engine starts.
3. If the engine fails to start within 10 seconds, place
the ignition in the OFF position, wait
10 to 15 seconds to allow the starter to cool,
t hen r

epeat the Extended Park Starting
procedure.
4. If the engine fails to start after eight attempts, allow

the starter to cool for at least
10 minutes, then repeat the procedure.
AFTER STARTING — WARMING UP THE
E
NGINE
Proceed as follows:
Travel slowly, letting the engine run at a reduced
RPM, without accelerating suddenly.
It is recommended to wait until the engine
coolant temperature gauge starts to rise for
maximum performance.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
To shut off the engine with a vehicle speed greater
than 5 mph (8 km/h), you must push and hold the
ignit i
on or push the START/STOP button three
times consecutively within a few seconds. The
engine will shut down, and the ignition will be
placed in the RUN position.
Vehicles Equipped With Electronic Key
(Keyless Enter ‘n Go™)
Turning off the car (cycle the ignition from the RUN
p ositi on

to the OFF position), the power supply to
the accessories are maintained for a period of
three minutes.
Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to
get it started. Vehicles equipped with an auto -
matic transmission cannot be started this
w ay. U

nburned fuel could enter the catalytic
converter and once the engine has started,
ignite and damage the converter and vehicle.
If the vehicle has a discharged battery,
booster cables may be used to obtain a start
from a booster battery or the battery in
another vehicle. This type of start can be
dangerous if done improperly Ú page 278.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the starter, do not
continuously crank the engine for more than

10 seconds at a time. Wait 10 to 15 seconds
before
trying again.
WARNING!CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the starter, do not crank
continuously for more than 10 seconds at a
time. Wait 10 to 15 seconds before trying again.

REPLACING THE SEALANT
NOTE:
Replace the sealant canister prior to the expiration
date a
t an authorized dealer.

Tire Service Kit Expiration Date Location

JUMP STARTING
If your vehicle has a discharged battery it can be
jump started using a set of jumper cables and a
battery in another vehicle or by using a portable
battery booster pack. Jump starting can be
dangerous if done improperly so please follow the
procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack follow
the m a
nufacturer’s operating instructions and
precautions.
PREPARATIONS FOR JUMP START
The battery in your vehicle is located in the front of
the engine compartment, behind the left headlight
assembly.
NOTE:
The positive (+) ba t tery post is covered with a
protective cap. Lift up on the cap to gain access to
the positive (+) battery post.

Positive (+) Battery Post

See below steps to prepare for jump starting:

1. Apply the Electric Park Brake, shift the auto m

atic transmission into PARK (P)
(manual transmission in NEUTRAL) and place
the ignition OFF.

2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all electrical acces
sories.
WARNING!
Store the sealant canister in its special compart -
ment, away from sources of heat. Failure to fol -
low this WARNING may result in sealant canister
r uptur

e and serious injury or death.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump starting if the battery is fro -
zen. It could rupture or explode and cause per -
sonal injury.
CAUTION!

Do not use a portable battery booster pack or any
other booster source with a system voltage
greater than 12 Volts or damage to the battery,
starter motor, alternator or electrical system may
occur.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY 279
3. If using another vehicle to jump start the
battery, park the vehicle within the jumper
cable’s reach, set the parking brake and make
sure the ignition is OFF.JUMP STARTING PROCEDURE
Connecting The Jumper Cables

1. Connect the positive
(+) en
d of the jumper
cable to the positive (+)
post of the discharged
vehicle.

2. Connect the opposite end of the positive (+)
ju m

per cable to the positive (+) post of the
booster battery.
3. Connect the negative (-) en
d of the jumper
cable to the negative (-) post of the booster
battery.
4. Connect the opposite end of the negative (-)
ju m

per cable to a good engine ground. A
“ground” is an exposed metallic/unpainted
part of the engine, frame or chassis, such as an accessory bracket or large bolt. The ground
must be away from the battery and the fuel
injection system.

Suitable Engine Ground

5. S tart the engine in the vehicle that has the
booste r

battery, let the engine idle a few
minutes, and then start the engine in the
vehicle with the discharged battery.
6. Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cable
s in the reverse sequence.
WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as this
could establish a ground connection and
personal injury could result.
WARNING!
Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan
whenever the hood is raised. It can start
anytime the ignition switch is ON. You can be
injured by moving fan blades.
Remove any metal jewelry such as rings,
watch bands and bracelets that could make
an inadvertent electrical contact. You could be
seriously injured.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can burn
your skin or eyes and generate hydrogen gas
which is flammable and explosive. Keep open
flames or sparks away from the battery.
WARNING!
Failure to follow this jump starting procedure
could result in personal injury or property
damage due to battery explosion.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these procedures could result in
damage to the charging system of the booster
vehicle or the discharged vehicle.
WARNING!
Do not connect the jumper cable to the
negative (-) post of the discharged battery. The
res u
lting electrical spark could cause the battery
to explode and could result in personal injury.7

280 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
Disconnecting The Jumper Cables

1. Disconnect the negative
(-)
en
d of the jumper
cable from the engine ground of the vehicle
with the discharged battery.

2. Disconnect the opposite end of the negative (-)
ju m

per cable from the negative (-) post of the
booster battery.
3. Disconnect the positive (+) en
d of the jumper
cable from the positive (+) post of the booster
battery.
4. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+)
ju m

per cable from the positive (+) post of the
vehicle with the discharged battery, and
reinstall the protective cap.
If frequent jump starting is required to start your
vehicl
e you should have the battery and charging
system inspected at an authorized dealer.
REFUELING IN EMERGENCY – IF EQUIPPED
The vehicle is equipped with a refueling funnel
Ú page 272 for a Cap-Less Fuel System. If
refueling is necessary, while using an approved
g as ca

n, insert the refueling funnel into the filler
neck opening. Take care to open both flappers with
the funnel to avoid spills.
NOTE:
In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent the fuel
door fr om
opening. If this occurs, lightly push on
the fuel door to break the ice buildup and
re-release the fuel door using the inside release
button. Do not pry on the door.

Refueling Funnel
Emergency Gas Can Refueling
Most gas cans will not open the flapper doors. A
f
unne l

is provided to allow emergency refueling
with a gas can.
See the following steps for refueling:

1. Retrieve funnel from the spare tire storage area.

2. Ins

ert funnel into same filler pipe opening as
the f

uel nozzle.

Inserting Funnel

3. Ensure funnel is inserted fully to hold flapper doors op

en.
4. Pour fuel into funnel opening.
CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power
outlets draw power from the vehicle’s battery,
even when not in use (i.e., cellular devices, etc.).
Eventually, if plugged in long enough without
engine operation, the vehicle’s battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent the engine from starting.
CAUTION!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top
off” the fuel tank after filling.
