64 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTIONS

1. Tachometer

Indicates the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (RPM x 1000).
2. Instrument Cluster Display
The instrument cluster display features a
driver interactive display Ú page 64.
3. Speedometer
Indicates vehicle speed.
4. T emperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature. Any reading within the
normal range indicates that the engine
cooling system is operating satisfactorily.
The gauge will likely indicate a higher
temperature when driving in hot weather or
up mountain grades. It should not be
allowed to exceed the upper limits of the
normal operating range. 5. Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows the level of fuel in the
fuel tank when the ignition is in the ON/RUN
position.
 The fuel pump symbol points to the
side of the vehicle where the fuel
d oor
is

located.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY
Your vehicle is equipped with an instrument cluster
display, which offers useful information to the
driver. With the ignition in the OFF position,
opening/closing of a door will activate the display
for viewing, and display the total miles, or
kilometers, in the odometer. Your instrument
cluster display is designed to display important
information about your vehicle’s systems and
features. Using a driver interactive display located on the instrument panel, your instrument cluster
display can show you how systems are working and
give you warnings when they aren’t. The steering
wheel mounted controls allow you to scroll through
and enter the main menus and submenus. You can
access the specific information you want and
make selections and adjustments.

WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or
others could be badly burned by steam or boiling
coolant. You may want to call an authorized
dealer for service if your vehicle overheats.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot engine cooling system could
damage your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reads “H” pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the
vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until
the pointer drops back into the normal range. If
the pointer remains on the “H”, turn the engine
off immediately and call an authorized dealer for
service.

224 SAFETY
ESC Operation Modes
To disable ESC and other safety systems, follow
the instructions below.
There are three modes of active safety systems
presen

t on the vehicle:
ESC On
Partial Off
Full Off
ESC On – Two-Wheel Drive Vehicles And
Four-W h

eel Drive Vehicles In 2WD And 4WD High
This is the normal operating mode for ESC when
operati
ng a two-wheel drive vehicle. It is also the
normal mode for operating a four-wheel drive
vehicle in 2WD or 4WD High. The ESC system will
be in “ESC On” mode whenever the vehicle is
started or the power transfer unit (if equipped) is
shifted out of 4WD Low. This mode should be used
for most driving situations. ESC should only be
turned to “Partial Off” or “Full Off” for specific
reasons as noted. Refer to “Partial Off” and to “Full
Off” for additional information.
NOTE:
It is recommended to select the mode "Partial Off"
or "Fu l
l Off" only for specific reasons.
Partial Off – Two-Wheel Drive Vehicles And
Four-Wh
eel Drive Vehicles In 2WD And 4WD High
The “Partial Off” mode is intended for driving in
deep s
now, sand, or gravel. This mode raises the threshold for TCS and ESC activation, which allows
for more wheel spin than what ESC normally
allows.

ESC OFF Button

To enter the “Partial Off” mode, momentarily push
the E S

C OFF button and the ESC OFF Indicator
Light will illuminate. To turn the ESC on again,
momentarily push the ESC OFF button and the ESC
OFF Indicator Light will turn off. This will restore the
normal “ESC On” mode of operation.
NOTE:
To improve the vehicle’s traction when driving with
snow c h
ains, or when starting off in deep snow,
sand, or gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the
“Partial Off” mode by momentarily pushing the ESC
OFF button. Once the situation requiring “Partial
Off” mode is overcome, turn ESC back on by
momentarily pushing the ESC OFF button. This may
be done while the vehicle is in motion. Full Off – Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles In 4WD High
And 4
W

D Low
The “Full Off” mode is intended for off-highway and
off-road
use when ESC stability features could
inhibit vehicle maneuverability due to trail
conditions. The ESC OFF button is located in the
lower switch bank above the climate control panel.
To enter “Full Off” mode, push and hold the ESC
OFF button for five seconds while the vehicle is
stopped with the engine running. After five
seconds, the ESC OFF Indicator Light will illuminate
and an “ESC OFF” message will appear in the
odometer.

In this mode, ESC and TCS are turned off (except for
the “ l

imited slip” feature described in the TCS
section) until the vehicle reaches a speed of 40 mph

WARNING!
When in “Partial Off” mode, the TCS function -
ality of ESC, except for the limited slip feature
descr i
bed in the TCS section, has been
disabled and the ESC OFF Indicator Light will
be illuminated. When in “Partial Off” mode,
the engine power reduction feature of TCS is
disabled, and the enhanced vehicle stability
offered by the ESC system is reduced.
Trailer Sway Control (TSC) is disabled when
the ESC system is in the “Partial Off” mode.

332 SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as
little exposure to light as possible. Protect tires
from contact with oil, grease, and gasoline.
Replacement Tires
The tires on your new vehicle provide a balance of
many characteristics. They should be inspected
regularly for wear and correct cold tire inflation
pressures. The manufacturer strongly
recommends that you use tires equivalent to the
originals in size, quality and performance when
replacement is needed
Ú page 331. Refer to the
Tire and Loading Information placard or the
Vehic l

e Certification Label for the size designation
of your tire. The Load Index and Speed Symbol for
your tire will be found on the original equipment
tire sidewall.
See the Tire Sizing Chart example for more
inform a

tion relating to the Load Index and Speed
Symbol of a tire Ú page 323.
It is recommended to replace the two front tires or
two re a

r tires as a pair. Replacing just one tire can
seriously affect your vehicle’s handling. If you ever
replace a wheel, make sure that the wheel’s
specifications match those of the original wheels.
It is recommended you contact an authorized tire
deale r

or original equipment dealer with any
questions you may have on tire specifications or capability. Failure to use equivalent replacement
tires may adversely affect the safety, handling, and
ride of your vehicle.
TIRE TYPES
All Season Tires — If Equipped
All Season tires provide traction for all seasons
(Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter). Traction
levels may vary between different all season tires.
All season tires can be identified by the M+S, M&S,
M/S or MS designation on the tire sidewall. Use all
season tires only in sets of four; failure to do so
may adversely affect the safety and handling of
your vehicle.
Summer Or Three Season Tires —

If Equipped
Summer tires provide traction in both wet and dry
conditions, and are not intended to be driven in
snow or on ice. If your vehicle is equipped with
Summer tires, be aware these tires are not
designed for Winter or cold driving conditions.
Install Winter tires on your vehicle when ambient
temperatures are less than 40°F (5°C) or if roads
are covered with ice or snow. For more
information, contact an authorized dealer.
WARNING!
Do not use a tire, wheel size, load rating, or
speed rating other than that specified for your
vehicle. Some combinations of unapproved
tires and wheels may change suspension
dimensions and performance characteristics,
resulting in changes to steering, handling, and
braking of your vehicle. This can cause unpre -
dictable handling and stress to steering and
suspe n

sion components. You could lose
control and have a collision resulting in
serious injury or death. Use only the tire and
wheel sizes with load ratings approved for
your vehicle.
Never use a tire with a smaller load index or
capacity, other than what was originally
equipped on your vehicle. Using a tire with a
smaller load index could result in tire over -
loading and failure. You could lose control and
h ave a

collision.
Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having
adequate speed capability can result in
sudden tire failure and loss of vehicle control.
CAUTION!
Replacing original tires with tires of a different
size may result in false speedometer and
odometer readings.
